About me
I've been playing D&D for 10 years, and DMing for 7! I've been a professional DM for middle-schoolers and their families, and run games for me and my friends outside of StartPlaying. I think roleplaying games are a great way to learn about yourself, build a community, increase social skills, and have fun! All are welcome at my table! I have experience running D&D Fifth Edition, and have played Monster of the Week and Avanced D&D as well. My favorite part of the game is worldbuilding, followed by roleplaying.
GM Style
I enjoy focusing on worldbuilding in my homebrew worlds, and when not running modules, creating a story that forms a web connecting all the characters' backstories. I throw in silly voices, and magic items that grow with the character. I like to have players gain titles and positions of importance as the story progresses. My main motto is this: "give the players the cool thing!". I will always tailor the game to what the players want.

Llewyn is such a thoughtful and knowledgeable DM! I have co-DMed with, been a player for, and played alongside Llewyn for several years now, and he always makes such fun and impactful decisions. He is very good at adjusting for different groups and playstyles, and is always willing to work with players and their backstories, both to help them to create a character that works in the party and the world and to incorporate their story into the campaign.
Honestly the best GM I’ve had. You can really tell that he has a lot of experience because he takes enough time for the newbies to get the hang of the game, but can clearly manage more advanced players and make sure that everyone has fun. The characters are colorful, the stories are fluid, you feel like you are in a movie, every session is a lot of fun ! From the very start, he makes sure everyone is comfortable and all throughout the campaign, he makes efforts to make it even more enjoyable for everybody.
Llewyn is a very fun dungeon master who is quick to encourage creative solutions that players come up with. He also has an excellent eye towards overarching stories and interesting world building. Finally, Llewyn is also a generally kind person who takes an interest in other people and will go to lengths to ensure everyone has an enjoyable adventure.
I've played with this GM for about 4 years, with him both as a player and a GM. No matter what role he is in, Llewyn will commit to the game. He loves world-building and creating really interesting and immersive worlds, and he's also super interested in collaborating with his players and having them influence the world. He's excellent at RP, and always comes up with new & interesting NPCs. Very knowledgeable about rules, but willing to let players try new and exciting things. Great to play with as an intermediate player, and I know that he's also played with a lot of more advanced players, as well as running a years-long beginners' game for middle schoolers and their parents. No matter your level, if you're looking for strong world-building, solid RP, and a friendly GM, he's your guy :)
