About me
***Forever DM with over 20 years of TTRPG experience.*** I started my TTRPG experience as a teenager, playing D&D 3.5 with my father and our local group of friends. I quickly became enamored with the idea of being dungeon master, and creating immersive and interesting worlds for our group. Fast forward to today, and I am the "Forever DM" for the same group of friends, and help my father run a D&D club at the local high school where he teaches.
GM Style
My motto is simple - have fun. As long as everyone is having a good time, then you are playing the game right. Focus on cooperative play, storytelling, and building memories together that will last a lifetime. I prefer a balanced approach to gameplay, with a moderate amount of both roleplay and combat. In general, I encourage talking in character where appropriate, and out of character otherwise. However, there is no "One Size Fits All" to any game or group of players, and I do my best to tailor my DM style to what the players' biggest interests are.

MusicMaster's games are an absolute blast! One night, you'll be deep into an epic 5-hour combat session that completely shakes up the story as you fight through it. Then, the next game shifts gears, diving into the story with role-playing and investigation, uncovering character backstories. But here's the best part: MusicMaster is a consistently awesome storyteller, no matter which adventure your party takes on. I've only played a few games with them, but they've easily become some of my top gaming experiences since I started playing. I highly recommend them – a solid 10/10!

They are very patient and willing to work with players in order to craft a more personal campaign for the players. Despite it being a pre made one, MusicMaster as a DM has made it more interesting and memorable than most I have encountered. Highly Recommend :D

This was my first D&D adventure and it's great. If it wasn't for Musicmaster being such a great D.M I don't think I would be still interested in playing. Musicmaster is great with the story telling and the voices. Every session is exciting with R.P. and combat. however the story does get dark so be warned.

Thatcher is an amazing dm an my first for d&d he walked me through every step is patient while in game and his game style if fun and safe and his voices are great. He does a good job getting to all players and especially when we split up our group being 7 right now plus 7 npc's thats not easy and he does pretty dang good at it his story telling is imersive and detaile but not overly which is good.

I have played with Thatcher for a long time 12 years both as player and when he was GM. he will build great sets in D20 and was very accommodating with remote play. He will also build your background fully into the story of the campaign. If you want your character immersed into the setting of the game I have not played with a better GM. there can be entire side quests if you choose or remember them. Note take is very important as clues are subtle but there.

He told a great story and allowed his players to be part of the narrative. He also worked in players backstories into the campaign which added to the enjoyment. All around a really fun experience!!!
