About Tom
Hi, I'm Tom, a UK-based Game Master with a passion for creating immersive, story-driven adventures where roleplay and meaningful player choices take centre stage! I've run games for both new and experienced players across Dungeons & Dragons 5e, and I enjoy fostering a welcoming, collaborative table where everyone has a chance to shine. Whether it's epic combat, tense mysteries, or memorable character moments, my goal is always to make each session fun and engaging.

I started running games because...
I wanted to create the kinds of adventures I loved playing in. There's something incredibly rewarding about watching players get invested in the world, laugh at unexpected moments, overcome impossible odds, and create stories that no one at the table will ever forget.
The three words my players would use to describe me are...
Creative. Engaging. Supportive. I love creating memorable worlds and characters, keeping players invested in the story, and embracing the hilarious, unexpected moments that make every campaign unique.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Usually playing trading card games like Magic: The Gathering and Riftbound, or spending time with friends playing video games. I'm always up for chatting about new decks, game mechanics, or sharing stories from our latest adventures, whether they're around a tabletop or on a screen.
How Tom runs games
I run story-driven campaigns where player choices genuinely shape the world. I enjoy balancing immersive roleplay, challenging but fair combat, and meaningful exploration, giving every character opportunities to shine. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or brand new to D&D, I strive to create a welcoming, collaborative table where memorable moments come naturally and everyone leaves excited for the next session.
Tom's ideal table
My table is relaxed, welcoming, and full of laughter. I love when players get invested in the world and their characters, but I also believe that D&D is a game meant to be enjoyed with friends. Always expect plenty of jokes, funny roleplay moments, and chaotic plans that somehow work despite all the odds being stacked against you. Comedy is a big part of my games, but I always make room for serious and emotional moments when the story calls for them. Above all else, I want my table to feel like a place where everyone is comfortable contributing, trying new ideas, and leaving each session with a smile.
