About me

I am currently inactive as GM "The game is fun. If it's not fun, why bother?" - Reggie Fils-Amie 👋 Hello! I'm Jordan and my goal is to make your game as fun as it possibly can be! I started the game as a Dungeon Master and I have never put down the mantle. Seeing my players use all the tools they have to adapt and overcome the encounters, puzzles and characters I present them with is the best feeling in the world. My experience as Game Master and Workshop Facilitator will have you thinking on your feet and come up with creative solutions. I have introduced and welcomed many newcomers into the world of TTRPGs and if you're new, I would love to make sure your first experience is a great one! Inclusivity, player safety and comfort are on the forefront of all of my games. Beware, there is a non-zero chance that my cat, Daisy, decides to join the session 🐱

GM Style

⛵"Set sail for adventure!" is the line my friends unironically know as my catchphrase. Whenever I GM, I want to take you on an epic quest that you will vividly remember years later. 👉Personal attention for YOUR character! Your character's backstory and decisions can and WILL affect the game's story. No two sessions will play the same, because your character will make the world their own. 🧠Creative and engaging encounters! No matter if you're slaying beasts, navigating winding hallways or solving puzzles, I will make you use your brains. Dynamic encounters, unique puzzles and deep NPCs will make you utilize every inch of your character sheet. 🏳️‍🌈A safe space for everyone to comfortably be themselves! We play this game to relax and unwind. My games will provide that for you and your character. All ingame worlds I run adventures in are free from sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia and any other form of bigotry. 🎤Supporting your playstyle. Everyone has a unique way of play. Whether you intricately describe your characters actions or prefer short and simple statements, together we will create an adventure in the style of play you are comfortable with.

Sad to see him go (for now), but Jordan was a great DM, a great friend, and a great introduction for me to the PF2E system. Can't say enough good things about him - creative, knowledageable, willing and able to work with players, and all around a generally good dude.

Good with new people. Keeps the group small allowing for more individual play time. Well organized

Jordan is F-U-N! Really nice and welcoming. Clearly puts in the prep work. Eager to make sure the players are having a good time. Suddenly turns creepy as hell as the bad guy. Seriously, he's been the best introduction to Pathfinder -- rules knowledge, open mind, and acting chops. You could not ask for better!

Been playing pathfinder - as a beginner, he's been helping everyone learn the ropes, he has access to foundryvtt, which has been an excellent tool for moving the party through scenarios and combat and uses discord for music and game communication.

I have been having a blast exploring some DnD with Jordan. He is an amazing GM, and it shows that he has a lot of experience running games for random groups. Great storyteller, good at keeping the game flowing, and giving ample of time to all players around the party. All while spending a lot of time on player backstories to pull them as close to the story as one wants to be.

I had a great time with Jordan! It's obvious he put a ton of work into the module and was ready for anything the players came up with. The maps and images set the mood perfectly. Also, Jordan managed that fine balance of guidance and freedom that makes for a very well paced game that neither feels like its dragging or the players are being rushed.
