About Lunar Phoenix GM
I'm a more roleplay heavy GM who enjoys creating stories with my players. I do my best to make challenging dungeons and well defined worlds that players can get lost in. I'm passionate about Dungeons and Dragons but am expanding into other systems as well. I started as a player in 3.5 dnd and have grown a bit from there over time. I enjoy making things fun for my players and hope I can do so for all of them.

How Lunar Phoenix GM runs games
I have a heavy leaning towards roleplay but also try do balanced or even difficult combat and enjoy making dungeons for players to figure out. I do my best to make the worlds I set games in come to life with voices and other tools like music and effects in foundry. I try to make sure everyone feels included in play and highlight each player's characters.

My games focus on...
Roleplay, themes of the settings, the lore of the world, and the characters and their individual stories
Rules are...
Important to the flow of a game but if I feel that something fits a moment better than what an ability or spell description says, I'm willing to be flexible to allow a player the chance at doing something cool and out of the box - within reason.
When it comes to voices
I do my best to create individual voices for different characters to make them feel distinct but I admit I'm no voice actor.
Lunar Phoenix GM's ideal table
My ideal table is around 4-5 players who enjoy roleplaying as much as they do or more combat (specifically in DnD). I love it when my players enjoy getting into the world and their characters. I do my best to build or characterize worlds that I'd hope interests people to explore. Be it the horror soaked realms of the Ravenloft setting or the high fantasy realms of Toril and beyond. I like to have a relaxed but creative feeling to my games where my players feel like they can influence the world around them. I also prefer players who are willing to communicate with me about their wants and desires for their characters in the games I run. Communication is key in these games.

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table
You'll love my table if you're really into fun roleplay moments and fun narrative beats.
I love it when a player
Comes to me with ideas for their character's story that give me fun and interesting ideas to weave into the game's narrative. It makes it feel like they are invested in where their story goes.
I think it's a red flag when players...
Do not communicate with me about what they are looking for in the game or don't speak up if something needs improvement. I cannot improve as a GM without feedback.
