About Matt the Bat

I have been playing tabletop role-playing games for about 35 years by now, and running them for around 30 years. I've run sessions for as many as ten people down to just a one-on-one adventure. My goal is to always make sure that everyone feels included, feels like their actions have weight to them, and most importantly, has fun. My table is a safe space and LGBTQ+ friendly. I run a combination of both pre-made and homebrew adventures, complete with ambient sounds and character voices.

How Matt the Bat runs games

I love including exploration, a sense of mystery, and a chance for the characters to use non-combat skills and abilities to solve problems and overcome challenges. My games may contain, but are not limited to: --Harrowing narrow escapes --Outrageous fights to the bitter end --Carefully constructed skill challenges --Deeply personal and life-changing role-play --Moments for all characters to shine
