About me

I've been playing for nearly 10 years in multiple systems, groups, and settings. As a DM, I've always prided myself on putting the player first. I enjoy setting up immersive, challenging, and most importantly, fun encounters and campaigns. Expect a lot of communication before we even start so I can tailor a game directly around the group's interest. Best way to get a hold of me is Discord ManySidedDie#7965

GM Style

Roleplay-Encouraged but not necessary Combat- I try to keep it dynamic and not just a slugfest Voices- I'm not a professional voice actor but I will absolutely give the goblin a funny voice Railroading- If the party wants to investigate the wedding happening in town square and ignore the necromancer, that's fine, prepare to cry when they get to their vows Homebrew-Case by case approval Rule of Cool- I'm a sucker for rule of cool, if you wanna jump off a building to sink your axe in the neck of a crazed beast, sounds awesome, let's do it. Encumbrance- Never in my life will I count how many pounds you are carrying or how many arrows you have left.

Kevin was very cool, and very player-friendly. Good command of the rules, combat etc. We all had a good time fighting a big beastie!

Kevin does a great job of incorporating backstories into the game to feel like your character is a part of the world. You don't feel like a player at a table, you feel like a character in a story. Everyone gets a turn in the spotlight and he keeps everything fresh. Every session and encounter was always unique.

Kevin is an excellent GM. Always invested in the story of the campaign as well as the stories his player's have crafted for his characters. His worlds are enjoyable to play in and the NPCs within them vibrant. I would recommend Kevin to anyone looking to have a casual, fun time playing a TTRPG.

Kevin, as a DM provides an expansive and engaging world that defeat boring story with subverting tropes. Throughout our time playing he was equitable with players and strived to provide unique opportunities to highlight each players strengths and interests. A strong knowledge of the lore of the 5E and other cornerstone high fantasy, fantasy and, science fiction works. From new players exploring tabletop games to Veteran GM/DM; Kevin will create a memorable and inclusive experience for each player at the table.

Whenever I play in a session Kevin runs I know that I can treat the world like a sandbox and he will be excited and here for it! He loves providing players with opportunities to RP and develop relationships between each other and the world. His NPCs and monsters are all very lively and creative, his random encounters are a ton of fun, and he knows how to make a challenge fun.

Kevin was the DM for my first DnD adventure. He's imaginative and does an excellent job at explaining the game to newcomers. 10/10 would recommend.
