About Lumen Dusk

Hello there, I believe I am the dro-I mean GM that you're looking for! I'm Lumen, a 22yo GM with 7 years of TTRPG experience under my belt through out which I've ran primarily D&D 5e but also PbtA systems, Cypher, Starfinder and recently I've picked up Daggerheart as well. For the last 2 years, I've been a professional GM at local game store and boardgame cafes with various completed campaigns and oneshots with good reviews. Now I'm looking to reach out and share stories with you all, awesome people of the Internet! Everyone is welcome at my table as long as you follow my one rule - let us all be a fan of each other!

How Lumen Dusk runs games

I love to tell a heartfelt, impactful, dramatic and collaborative story with each and everyone of my players and love to bake in twist and turns that makes the stories personal to every PCs. I also like to craft worlds that is fun to explore, especially if that world is unique in one way or multiple, and would love for my players to be a part of that process as well. At my table, I want to see you succeed and triumph over challenges - so I won't hold back my punches when it comes to combat. I also encourage my players to embraces failures and play off the drama and tension that such failure may bring about - all for that sweet sweet victory at the end of the tunnel. Rules of the game are here to up hold the one promise - that we all have fun! I bend the rule and homebrew wherever it's appropriate

My games focus on...

the messy, interwoven and always dramatic PCs personal stories and how the players choices as they navigate these stories

Rules are...

guidelines that we follow only when it contributes to our fun at the table

When it comes to voices

I try my best to bring the most funny and absurd voice references from popular culture

Lumen Dusk's ideal table

My ideal table will focus on dramatic storytelling, improvisation and funny shenanigans. We'd joke around lightheartedly, enjoy tense moments of narrative conflicts, and cry when we lose our imaginary love ones. Everyone is welcome as long as you are respectful to others, willing to be a fan of the stories we try to tell, and most importantly you are willing to share your stories with us.

I love it when a player

I love it when players embrace their characters strengths and flaws and make choices that pushes the stories forward, even if those choices are hard or complete out of my expectation. Catch me off guard anytime!

I think metagaming...

are intuitive for players, but I think it's good practice to try and not let it take away from the narrative experience at the table
