About Joshua
Hi adventurers! I'm Joshua, a Game Master with over 6 years of experience running and playing Dungeons & Dragons (5e), Pathfinder, and various other systems. Tabletop RPGs are my passion, and I aim to create immersive, collaborative, and unforgettable stories with every group I guide. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or brand new to the hobby, my table is a place for you to explore, learn, and most importantly to have fun! I prefer roleplay with challenging combat to create a balanced experience that appeals to you players. Expect vast worlds, NPCs with depth, and encounters that reward creative thinking and teamwork. I love seeing players bring their characters to life through roleplay, but I'm also there to cheer you on when you land that epic crit in combat! For new players, I focus on being approachable and patient. I’ll guide you through the rules, help you create a character that excites you, and ensure you feel confident and comfortable at the table. Inclusivity is the foundation of every game I run. I strive to make my table a safe, welcoming, and respectful space for players of all backgrounds. If you're LGBTQ+ or an ally, you'll always find a place at my table. If inclusivity isn’t something you value, then I kindly ask you to look elsewhere for a game. What i offer: Campaigns & One-Shots: I can run everything from quick, action-packed sessions to epic, long-term adventures. Custom Content: I often weave in unique story arcs tailored to my players' backstories and goals, plus i also like to work with homebrew when it makes sense. Player Support: Whether it’s learning the rules, building characters, or diving into roleplay, I’m here to help. If you want a GM who values your story, pushes your creativity, and makes the game accessible and fun, I’d love to roll some dice with you. Reach out, and let’s create something amazing together! ⭐ Safety Tools: Consent forms, open communication, and session check-ins

How Joshua runs games
I have a preference towards combat and roleplay. I do like some puzzles but not too many. I really love to set up a sandbox game, where players have as much freedom as they want, although their actions do have consequences in these worlds. Combat can change up a lot. In general, I like to throw several easy encounter on the path to make you really feel the capabilities of your characters, but also switch it up with very tactical and sometimes even difficult combat. I also try to do voices, keep in mind though, I am not a voice actor haha.
