About Ben

Hello and welcome~! I'm here to help players have fun while navigating a safe and collaborative gaming experience. Mostly I'm excited to watch the unique stories unfold and that's all because of yous, each unique individual that shows up at the table adding in their own flare and spice. I love the fun experience tabletop rpgs offer, there is really nothing else like it. 7 years ago I learnt about these collaborative storytelling games and I began my journey as a Game Master. A few years later, I got to be a player which really flipped my perspective. After a short while I realized how much I truly enjoyed being a GM and helping players out. I love this hobby and I want to help others feel a fun abd strong connection to the hobby like I do. That's why I decided to start hosting games. So, with that said, I encourage you to come take a seat at my table and try one of my homebrewed adventures! Hope to see you soon, Bye~!

I became a GM because

Tabletop RPGs are such a unique gaming/storytelling experience that I just had to try it. Now, I'm hooked and I want everyone to experience the fun that comes from the unique collection of people at the table.

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

Wishing I was running games while drawing maps and npcs. Sometimes while watching anime or movies.

How Ben runs games

I love creating custom materials and prefer a rules-light/rule-of-cool approach to gaming. I want to tell a good fun story with my players. For that reason, I enjoy players who collaborate with the group and are driven to help move the story forward. I'm super interested in this hobby, always learning new systems or improving any skills that will directly tie into my GMing (Art, Storytelling, Improv, Voice acting, etc.) If there's anything that you'd like to chat about or something you want to try in a game, send me a message! I love any reason to chat about tabletop rpgs

When it comes to voices

I'm not the best, but that's not what roleplaying is about anyway. I still give voices a crack, it creates a safe space for my players to experiment and try new things – It's a lot easier to step out of your comfort zone a little when your GM is a big goof-ball.

Ben's ideal table

My ideal table is a mix of individuals with the common goal of supporting one another and having a good time. The vibe can shift with the story but with a constant playful undertone. I want to see my players be proactive which always leads to crazy theories and shenanigans that can be super fun for all!

I think metagaming...

Is unavoidable but should have limitations so that we can all have fun at the table still. We'll go through them case by case.
