About me

I’m a writer and musician from LA. I got into GMing out of necessity and continue to do it because I love it! I’ve run plenty of one shots, a hand full of different game system and successfully ran three D&D campaigns from level 1-20

GM Style

I’m a collaborative storyteller with a focus on a rule of cool approach. I love a good mix of roleplay and combat and try and put my own spin on each game I run. I focus on open communication with my players making sure everyone is having the most fun at the table.

turner is such an amazing GM, who prioritizes player safety, creativity, and story telling above all else! they are super welcoming towards new player, while still providing challenges and new twists for experienced players! they always check in with players when it comes to potentially sensitive topics and make their games just an all around safe space! turner can seamlessly turn any bump in the road or sudden surprise into an awesome and fun narrative moment. did a player have to cancel last minute? well no worries, now a quasit in a bowl of soup is giving you a side quest to the nine hells! turner is a gm that I genuinely strive to be like with the games I run. and if you need anymore convincing, they have turned one of the most hated dnd modules into one of the longest running and most fun campaigns I've ever played in!

Best DM ever!! My dear friend and a wonderful human. Always makes sure players feel comfortable and lets them drive their character arcs. Vivid storytelling, super fun monster encounters, usually an NPC or two that will live in your heart forever.

turner is super friendly and chill and is a fantastic GM who knows what they're doing. they're very inclusive as well and are super accommodating for people's boundaries, wants, and needs. also very beginner friendly! they will walk you through the game at your own pace and answer any questions you have even if you're a veteran player (i forget rules all the time and they're very nice about it). they allow a lot of player creativity and input, which i really appreciate, and the stories created through the games they run really feel like collaborative storytelling between them and the players. great mix of shenanigans and serious story moments, too. highly recommend for players of all skill levels and those who are very creative!

Turner is a very friendly and open-minded DM whom I've frequently played one-shots with. I appreciate that they value the overall enjoyment of their players over sweating the minor details in a game. ( One of my favorite moments was being able to use my double whips as a fighter like an instrument, and being able to lasso two individual characters out of harms way for my two actions. ) With Turner as your DM you can look forward to fun NPCs, light-hearted RPs, and goofy shenanigans. LGBTQ+ friendly, conscious of people's squicks/triggers, and always accommodating!
