It was designed in such a way that new or returning players are able to dip their feet back in with no issues. He was also able to play off the silliness of my characters and was game with what route we steered the game inevitably to.

Did a oneshot with Russell and had a great time. As a group we were trying things that were definitely outside the box. Russell says " you can try". With the right roll of the dice it can happen. Russell allows for you to have fun and is good at story telling on the fly. I'm sure some of the things we did that day were a first for him.

My first long-form DnD campaign was one of Russell’s Homebrew worlds, and he’s made the experience so welcoming and enjoyable! His storytelling is very vivid and the player-focused aspect of it makes it easy to become immersed in the world and feel like you’re part of that great narrative. He’s very accommodating and open to incorporating suggestions. Using Discord, DnD Beyond and Owlbear Rodeo for the games is very easy and helps with keeping track of details that might overwhelm a new player at first. I would definitely recommend him as a DM!

Every little detail of his homebrew world is well thought out and doesn't limit player creativity. Character stories and plot hooks were well connected. Overall good vibe and lets players run free.

Russell is an amazing GM who is incredibly talented at making in game locations come to life! He allows characters to have a lot of freedom in their choices; running away is always an option, for example. I feel incredibly comfortable playing with him through Discord and Owlbear Radio, with Legendkeeper an amazing record keeping resource available for use. Fair campaign agreements set up beforehand add to the good feeling of the group as a whole. An amazing guy! You won't regret hiring him!
