Featured Prompts

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be

D&D, Deadlands, and Cyberpunk.

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Story-focused, crazy voices, energetic.

When I'm not running games I'm...

I work in Hollywood as a independent film producer, writer, and director.

How Hollywood DM runs games

I'm a balanced GM with an equal focus on role-playing, combats, puzzles, but lean very much into story and like to help players develop rich backgrounds for the characters. Beginner friendly and I don't mind taking time helping players into the space with an inclusive and patient demeanor. We're all here to have fun.

Featured Prompts

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

Steven Soderbergh.

My games focus on...

Story and player's character arcs... apart from you having to fight for your life!

Rules are...

a framework to build off of, but they need to be bent to adapt to some situations. Keep the flow of the game and if the player can make a good argument for why they should be able to "do a thing", I've got he ability to arbiter that moment.

Hollywood DM's ideal table

I like tables of about 4 players with one player being a wonderful note taker. I like having a couple of "actor-types" that really get in to their characters, but I always love having a new player that we can all introduce the game to. I find new players remind me of my first games and it's not long before they become addicts along with the rest of us!
