About me

I'm Ryan and I love running Pathfinder 2e! I came on over from DnD 5th edition and have been running 1 to 4 games a week for about 4 years now. My style tends towards cinematic, fast-paced combat with a lot of humor. I love doing ridiculous voices for my NPCs and letting players get away "rule of cool" shenanigans. I've got an active Discord community posting about Pathfinder, video games and the like. Come on by and join a table!

GM Style

As a DM, I like to keep the game moving, both in combat and exploration. I like to give my players context for their actions and like prompting knowledge checks as they uncover the world. I do voices for my NPCs, and there is at least one NPC per campaign that my players look back on and laugh about. Energy levels can vary from week to week, and part of DMing skill is knowing when to come to the forefront to drive the story and when to sit back and let it roll out. It's a give-and-take social dance and It's all about having a good time, whatever that looks like. I'm open to different homebrew and have created some subclasses and the like for my players. I love character customization and optimization even as a DM, and am happy to help with character construction.
