About me

Hello and thank you for your interest in me as a GM. I love playing games and in my opinion, Dungeons and Dragons is the best game. There are so many facets to the game and many ways to make it fun. I have enjoyed playing it, but what I love most is teaching new people how to play. My goal as a DM is to create a challenging yet fun experience that will be rewarding to everyone at the table. So if you’re ready to learn or you’re a seasoned veteran that just wants to have fun, come along and lets roll some dice!

GM Style

I usually try to find a balance between the 3 pillars of D&D: Roleplay, Exploration, and Combat. I realize that some players might have more fun with one than the others, but I try to make sure everyone at the table gets their chance to shine. I also try to make my games as immersive as possible. I find that it's easier to roleplay if you feel connected to the game. To that end I try my best to voice my NPCs (I'm no voice actor but I certainly try my best) and I also like to have background music to set the tone and mood. In the end, this is a game we are playing so it's all about having fun. As long as my players are having fun, then so am I.

We have been playing Lost Mines of Phandelver and are having a blast. We have a great group of people and I look forward to each week. Our Gm uses visuals and background music/soundscapes (even for attacks). This is my friend's first time playing 5th edition and Lykos does a great job of ensuring new players are included and not overwhelmed.

He is a great GM. He is knowledgeable and easy with the rules. He did a great job with each combat encounter and even made the non-combat story telling part of the adventure excellent.
