About me
I run homebrew settings based on Dimension 20 seasons such as Calorum from A Crown of Candy, Fantasy High, and the wide galaxy from a Starstruck Struck Odyssey. I also am interested in running Hyrule from the Legend of Zelda, Mario, Worlds Beyond Number and other themed DND campaigns. I have 2 years of professional DMing experience with many games within a wide variety of settings and arrangements under my belt, i'm down to have a fun, understanding and thrilling game of DND or SW5e anytime. Check out the world doc for Calorum for a taste of the flavour of my world building. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FZ8ChFWYeHE4v48u2RpoaP1NNbSkZfW0QSIg4MUnYi0/edit?usp=sharing.
GM Style
Massive fan of in depth Role Play and well fleshed out characters, my combats tend to have moving parts and optional secondary objectives with plenty of space for hijinks but real deadly stakes. I do many numerous voices and utilise scene and combat music, personalised roll20 maps, campaign exclusive discord servers and indepth one on one character creation.

Good for beginners with a very cool set and setting -- was able to convincingly mesh the DnD system with the Darkest Dungeon universe.

The Hill's expertise shines through in his storytelling, creating a captivating and enchanting galaxy for us to explore in a Star wars one shot. I highly recommend Hills.

Hills ran a SW5e game I was a part of for a Uni Club session and it was honestly great for me, it was my first time using that system and there was always time to go over something if i didn't understand and then right back into the mess of a space chase we were on. He's a great dm and a solid guy.

You can be assured that your backstory will be a part of the main story, he allows for players to come up with creative solutions to problems, however sometimes he can be a bit strict about some specific ruling. All in all he is one of the best GMs I've played with and I'm always looking up for his sessions

I'm from the RPG club in Otago where Tom is a member and he ran a SW5e oneshot for us and it was phenomenal. He was ontop of it at every stage, everyone got to explore their characters in super interesting ways, so many hijinks and we all felt that at anypoint if we got overwhelmed there was always space to back up and take a breather. From the moment we sat down at the table, we could see the excitement in our DM's eyes. He had put so much effort into preparing the adventure, and it showed in every detail. The atmosphere he created was perfect, with Star Wars-themed music playing softly in the background, and even some thematic decorations to set the mood. Highly recommend I know he's gonna do great things. Joel
