Featured Prompts

I became a GM because

I enjoy storytelling and giving players a good plot to think about. I like building their character concept with them both in roleplay and mechanics. I like to see players grow and become excited about the game. Most of all, I hope to create a lasting impression that players can look back on fondly.

I got started GMing...

In a homebrew text-based world that was based off D&D and Waterdeep. I ran one shot events, and decided that I wanted to learn the actual rules of the game. From there, I started DMing every few weeks for a table I was a player in. Finally, I created my own weekly table with support from a friend.

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Creative, Passionate, Fair.

How Sholeh runs games

I am a Rules as Written DM. Rule of Cool applies only if it doesn’t go against the rules. I enjoy implementing backstories into my games and allowing PCs the opportunity to interact and grow with the world around them.

Sholeh's ideal table

Featured Prompts

I am for a vibe that's...

immersive yet fun. Players should be in-character most of the time, but play characters with real depth and growth. The vibe is not completely serious, but joke characters are not welcome either.

character build discussions

I think min/maxing...

is valid! We should not punish people who read the rulebook and apply the mechanics in powerful ways that follow the rules.
