About me
Hail and Well Met, Adventurer! My name is Olé and I’m excited to welcome you to a world of whimsy, limitless possibilities and epic stories! My family and I have been lovers of D&D since 2019! I've been a DM with the help of my two dogs, Denver and Dru (my assistant DMs, if you will, since they are with me at nearly every online game), and a player of various TTRPGs including The Lost Mine of Phandelver, Curse of Strahd, Rime of the Frostmaiden, Call of Cthulhu, Vampire the Masquerade, and countless homebrew and other game systems. Whether you're here for the depth of narrative or the thrill of battle, I'm here to help you create an exciting and memorable adventure with companions that you'll never forget! 🎲 Here's what you'll find in my games! 🎟️Diverse Game Styles: Live sessions, Special Events hosted by the illustrious OnlyDragons community, and Adventurers League one-shots! 🏅Fair Play: I run the game by the rules, no fudging dice here! Your victories are all yours! 🔮Dynamic Storytelling: For 20 years, I spent most of my time as a Mass Communication Specialist in the U.S. Navy telling people’s stories and highlighting their adventures at sea and abroad! In the Forgotten Realms, I thrive on helping people create adventures with the same zeal and thrilling explorations. While I’m not a professional voice actor (yet) you can expect everything from silly kobold voices, wile old wizards, ancient crones, and the breathless voices of the undead! 💻Foundry VTT: Games hosted using Foundry VTT on a dedicated 24/7 server for both live and asynchronous play. 🖌️Custom Visuals: Professional images, self-made dynamic battle maps, and integrated HeroForge minis—completely free for players! 🌐I am part of a professional gamemaster team with over 200 players! Together we host events, tournaments, and one-shot adventures! ⚓Before becoming a professional Gamemaster, I spent 20 years in the U.S. Navy as a Mass Communication Specialist before retiring as a Chief Petty Officer in 2024! I have a huge passion for introducing new players to the magic of their first adventure, so all of my games are always beginner friendly! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 🚀 What are you waiting for?!

GM Style
Unless the game calls for combat, I love and prefer the role play and exploration parts of D&D! I like to uncover secrets and find the hidden messages that can be discovered in the imagination. If I can outwit my way from a situation then that's the door that I'll take first.

Xaviera
A phenomenal Game Master who truly immerses themselves in role-playing, creating environments that feel genuinely unsettling when they need to be. They excel at balancing each character's spotlight, environmental illustration. The transitions between narrative and combats are seamless, with plenty of opportunities for creative problem-solving or just exploring more of what your character can really do. He make a lot of his own maps and layouts, super creative with little story nuggets to find here and there.
Kyle Smith
I love this guy’s world-building! With how he preps and explains the world and its lore, I always feel like I’m right there looking at it through my character’s eyes.
Damian
He has a way of making you feel every emotion that is necessary during his games, the way he immerses players into the world helps with becoming your character. Ole has the ability to create what he needs on the fly if he has to. Love playing with him as the GM 10/10.
