About me

Hello Adventurer! 🧙‍♂️ 32 he/him ⚔️ My name is Teague Urquhart and I am a Game Master and super fan of Tabletop Role Playing Games! 📖 I have been a player of Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) since 2018 and took up the mantle of Game Master (GM) later that same year. I love story-telling and aim to provide my groups with a solid narrative that can be explored and built upon. I'm always seeking to better my work and provide more immersive and entertaining experiences for my players. 🧑‍🏫 I am also a Educator and have worked in the field with youth for the past 6 years. I bring this patience and supporting skill set to my games. 🥾 I hike, forage, bird watch, and bushcraft as hobbies and bring this natural knowledge into my games to life. 🗣 Communication with my groups is ongoing and constructive to help new players explore the immersive worlds that TTRPGs have to offer without feeling like they have to learn everything the game has to offer on the first day. I am also a practitioner of Non-Violent Communication (NVC) and utilise its techniques in my games. 📲 I also run a Roleplaying Discord Server with community of over 400 people.

GM Style

I love roleplaying and NPC's and creatures in my games all have their own personalities and voice. In my pre-campaign survey we will determine what kind of game we want to run. More fast-paced or slowed down and tactic oriented. In each case the game will revolve around the story of your characters and the world they inhabit. My games will be weekly 3 hour sessions with a 10 minute break at the half way point. 🎭 I love to change my voice and demeanour for each character I inhabit and will aim to stay in character unless the players have questions for me. 🎶 I seek out and curate music, tokens, battle maps, and art for player immersion. 🎨 I try to paint a picture with my descriptions while not over describing. The players lead the way and I improvise along the way with my knowledge of the world. 📝 I will be prepared for each session and take point form notes to keep the transitions between session smooth. 0️⃣ A firm believer in session 0 to establish player and Game Master etiquette and meet everyone with where they are at in terms of experience and what they want out of the game. 🏳️‍🌈 I welcome all people to my table and seek to keep everyone comfortable in and out of the game. 💪 I want to welcome new players to the game and will spend the time to get them up to speed. I also ask all other players in my game to be open to having new players.

We're currently in the middle of a campaign, and it's been an absolute blast so far. Game Master Teague has created a world that feels dynamic and immersive—full of mystery, danger, and unexpected moments that keep us on our toes. The story is layered and engaging, with just the right mix of plot, character development, and freedom for us to explore and make meaningful choices. One of the best parts is how seamlessly our individual character stories are woven into the larger narrative. It’s clear the DM puts a lot of thought into each session, and it shows in the rich storytelling and the way every encounter, NPC, and decision matters. Even with the campaign still ongoing, it already feels like we're part of something truly special. Sessions are consistently fun, memorable, and something I look forward to every week. If this is the halfway point, I can't wait to see where the rest of the journey takes us. Definitely join one of Game Master Teague’s campaigns.

Teague is great and facilitates sessions well. He is open to player creativity, and appreciates good role play by rewarding inspiration--which most of my previous DMs have completely forgot existed as a mechanic. Story telling and such have been great! This has been my first play by post experience, and I have thoroughly enjoyed it so far. Thanks Teague!
