About me
I'm an easy-going, rule-relaxed DM with a lot of experience building my own worlds. The games that I run tend to be focused on player choice and I try to keep every option open to the players. If you decide to run off into the wilderness, then I'll be ready! I have created my own world in which most of my home games are run, but I've also ran several official D&D modules in the Faerun setting. Whether you're looking for a new, unique experience or a return to a classic setting, I'm happy to tailor the game to fit your desires. I put out random encounters for different environments on my YouTube channel - The Curious Owlbear. The encounters are broken into environments for easy access and import into different settings. Please check out my channel if you'd like some insight into the hijinks that ensue in my games. TheCuriousOwlbear: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheCuriousOwlbear
GM Style
I am a fairly laidback DM when it comes to the ruleset. Character choices are among the most important aspects of RPG games, so I try to keep every option available. My games are adaptable for those who wish for more role playing, exploration or combat. Players should let me know their preferences so that I can create the perfect session! For new players, the games will be balanced between role playing, exploration and combat.

GM was very well prepared nd created an environment for a lot of good player choice.
Emma
The perfect game for a new player! The environment was well-rounded, the maps were easy to navigate and pretty well made, and the story was engaging. Seemed like it would work with characters of various levels and classes. The GM is able to roll with multiple player ideas/plans and has a great range of voices and characters. Definitely the type of GM you could run an entire campaign with, not just a oneshot.
Jennifer
We had a blast playing this adventure! The story had a interesting, engaging, and light-mystery feel to it. Ben did an incredible job introducing two of my friends to the world of D&D while also teaching us all how to use Roll20. His DMing style is flexible and responsive, his demeanor is patient and relaxed, and his goal is making sure his players have a good time! I would definitely recommend this for all players--new or experienced!
