About me

I got my TTRPG start with D&D 5e but I've been an avid writer and roleplayer for many years besides. I'm hoping to provide an inclusive game where we can bend and stretch the rules in a way that's still cohesive and fun for everyone involved. I run active and engaging games in a custom campaign setting and I'm always willing to try to work with ideas players might have for character creation. I tend to use homebrew systems and mechanics in my games and due to that I will not recommend my games to brand new players. Otherwise, if you're looking for a fun game of D&D in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and don't mind a bit of homebrew, then I'm probably your guy.

GM Style

I try to make make sure no matter what is happening, from long combats to intense roleplay scenes to odd tangents based on the listed prices for trade goods, that all of the players are having a good time and all players are feeling like they're involved with what's happening. As both a player and a gm I love combat, but more specifically interesting combat. I try not to have combat for combat's sake so the players have different ways to approach it other than the tried and true strategy of 'group up, and hit it 'till it dies.'

Why ITO was not a fit for me. his group of players gave a very laid back and close knit vibe. He pulls from a lot of resources, so if your looking for a very customizable, crunchy and unique set of rulles to make a character and play in I think he may be what your looking for.

Genuinely such a great DM to have for any and all character ideas. His expansive homebrew allows everything you could ever want, and it really makes you feel like the main character of the story.

Ito provides a totally immersive and engaging experience with the world he has built. With his homebrew rules, he gives us players the freedom to create exactly the type of character we want, and helps us build an incredible story. Ito is very knowledgeable, helpful, and patient, and does a great job in ensuring everyone at the table has a fun and positive experience. I highly recommend!

Ito’s homebrew is fantastic. It allows you to make soooo many customizations to your character and really flesh them out. Ito is also really good with working with you in telling a story. He’s always on your side. Highly recommend!

Ito's rules allow for very creative and unique play. He does a wonderful job worldbuilding and puts so much effort into his worlds and npcs. He allows his players to feel powerful and important. He creates a very compelling story with engaging combat.
