About me

Adam (Legend Weaver) has been playing Dungeons and Dragons since elementary school. Since then, he's played several different roleplaying games, both on and offline. He spent several years running a Vampire LARP in his city and has hundreds of hours of storytelling and game-running experience. Critical Role brought him back to the world of Dungeons and Dragons, and he enjoys being both behind the screen and in the trenches with other players. As an actor and singer, Adam enjoys telling stories, and this just adds to the list of stories he can help tell. He uses his theatre training to add creative NPCs and descriptions in order to enhance the player experience as much as possible. Check out the YouTube channel for an example of my DM style.

GM Style

I am a big fan of as much immersion as possible. Anything spoken at the table is considered to be said in character. I also try to ensure that I am using all three pillars of a campaign (roleplay, exploration, combat) to make the story. I am a huge fan of games that are heavily roleplayed. I include story arcs built off of character information that I gain at Session 0. To me, any game that doesn't include stories that directly affect the characters just isn't fun. No matter how good the main plot may be, if there isn't any opportunity for the characters to have their own stories then it's just not a proper story. These games are collaborative. No one "wins" these games other than by working together to tell an amazing story. I like to encourage the players to tell a lot of the story, with minimal guidance from me.

Adam is very good at engaging with the players and describing and explaining the environment as we as the system rules he is working with. As an older an experienced player, there were some changes and concepts that were new to me as well, and Adam made the transition seamless for me.

A lot of freedom to do almost anything, within reason.

Adam is super fun to play with. As new player to the world and system, he was patient and kind when setting everything up. Adam works hard to create a sense of immersion both at the table and week to week. His use of Discords music bots and channels really helps to make it feel like we are playing in-person all together. If you love role-playing, this is definitely the game for you as our sessions are heavy on the rp. The tone ranges from serious to seriously silly. Adam's passion at the table is clear and his joy is infectious. He also takes criticism seriously, it is not unlikely that playing a horror game boundaries might be crossed by accident, Adam is thoughtful and compassionate when listening to his players and their needs. I would totally recommend Adam and his games to anyone.

I really appreciate how inclusive and respectful the GM is. The GM gives space for player creativity and encourages character backstory and worldbuilding (always fun to see how this shapes encounters).

A tentative Game Master who can create a compelling cast of characters to populate the world that you will be playing in and tell an evolving story that incorporates your character. He tries to listen to everyone and make sure everyone is having a good time. Can be reach outside of game hours for questions or clarifications.

Adam puts in the work to build a world where his players have an incredibly amount of autonomy and manages to make the limitless possibilities of their choices have an impact on the world around them. As a new player to Vampire: The Masquerade I've had some of the best roleplaying experiences of my life at his table and I'm endlessly appreciative. Players who want to feel like their choices truly matter in a living world should feel right at home at any of his tables.
