About me

Hello! My name is Bill and I’ve been a game master of DnD 5e for 5 years now. With 900+ hours on Roll20, I’m well prepared and very excited to have an adventure with you that the bards will sing of for years to come! BIPOC & LGBTQ+ friendly! Outside of the game table, I work in healthcare. My husband and I have two sweet boys, a dog, and a whole backyard full of fowl. I look forward playing with you!

GM Style

I’m a sucker for good role play, NPC voices, and challenging combat!

I‘ve had the joy of playing two oneshots with Bill and I can wholeheartedly say I truly enjoyed both of them. I knew only one player personally, so I was pretty nervous to play with complete strangers. But those worries were soon gone because Bill made sure to create a respectful and comfortable atmosphere during the whole game. He was always super patient whenever I struggled with D&D Beyond (not used to it yet) and he was very attentive to include each player so you wouldn’t feel left out. He is also a very good storyteller and created a suspenseful ambience that made me eager to uncover whatever secrets the story held in store for us. I wholeheartedly recommend plying with Bill, especially when you‘re a little nervous to play with a group full of strangers or online at all!

This game was so much fun. I felt very supported with my first game on Beyond 20 and Roll 20 and just had a lot of fun

He is very nice and patient with new players and great at telling a story that pulls you in right from the start. His NPCs feel like real people and I had lots of fun interacting with them. I wish I had more money to spend on things like this so I could play more games with this GM.

He is such a great storyteller! He kept me engaged and absolutely riveted. The way he’s tying our backstories together and putting into the overall story story is beautiful. I’m loving it! 100% recommend!

I felt so heard/ seen/ validated in this session 0. I really enjoyed learning about everyone's character and fleshing out the party/ individual members/ the world together. Ask Billy about "The Web"! An inclusive / safe space that enables player creativity with a DM who knows the rules, but isn't afraid to embrace the rule of cool. New or experienced players looking for healthy mix of fantasy / gritty realism without intense book keeping will find a warm home with Bill the Swamp Hag.

Bill is an amazing GM! He knows the rules, is a fantastic story teller, and does an excellent job of providing a safe/inclusive space for everyone to have fun! He also has the perfect balance of role-play and combat that makes his sessions incredibly engaging. Would definitely play with him again!
