About me
I was a forever DM from 1985 until 1999 when my son was born. I took 21 years off and came back for 2 years as a player and now feel the itch (not catchy I hope) to run games again. I'm excited to be back on this side of the table again. I enjoy players building the Character in their Character. Developing their place in the world. Leveling is fun but developing a life for the character is amazing.
GM Style
I really like a mix of combat and roleplay. My best game would be long running and have the characters all have LIVES not just levels. However one shots and official adventures are also great fun. Story is my favorite part, not my story but yours. You get to live though you character and have a life. I will encourage you to develop hopes and dreams to you character not just backstories. I like to use out of game time to build and flesh out characters using discord channels and sometimes one on one mini games developing things outside of scheduled game time.

Jim makes sure everyone is involved, even people like me that aren't particularly looking for the spotlight. His DM style is focused on challenging the players but not playing against them trying to win. He seems to love the story element of the game and encourages all the players to support the world building and influence the direction of the story.
Ozzy
Jim is an awesome storyteller and world builder. He comes to every session with a atleast the next episode planned but is also open to player randomness and shenanigans without railroading. His story has a sense of gravitas and grandeur. Also he handles unforseen situations during the game absolute fairness and a sense of fun. He is also very beginner friendly and patient which makes you comfortable even when you are new and tend to make mistakes.
