I got started GMing...

Because of my kid, I wanted to reduce their screen time. Then I started Dming for extended family, friends, and then conventions.

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

Being a mom, making jewelry, crafting, creating/ playing video games, and prepping for that EPIC campaign.

How Amy Newton runs games

My speciality is DMing one-shots for Beginners, Kids 6-12, Teens 13-17, and Families. I also do one-shots for adults! I believe that the "rule of cool" rules all. If you're going to grapple a goblin using Farts, I will allow it. The more ridiculous/out-of-the-box your imagination goes, the more welcome it is at the table. I want my players to feel comfortable with roleplaying their character while learning the ins and outs of the game. I welcome all players and want them to feel the same way. My goal is to make everyone feel included, let each person have a spotlight moment, and ensure the players feel empowered during the game.

Featured Prompts

Rules are...

1. Don't be a Jerk! No one likes to play with someone mean and off-putting 2. NO PvP There will be in-game consequences if this one is broken 3. No main character syndrome We all share the spotlight!

Amy Newton's ideal table

My perfect table would have a mix of Beginner, intermediate, and veteran players, where they all work together in and out of the game. A place where you can ask questions, judgment-free. Where the vibe is happy, upbeat, and calm.

Featured Prompts

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table

(5e 2014) Short, simple, beginner-friendly, High Fantasy, role-playing.

I think it's a red flag when players...

Purposely not working together as a team because "My character would do that." This breaks rule #1

My table is not the place for...

Heated out-of-game political arguments. Any words or actions that make others feel unsafe PvP
