About me
Hi! I: ๐ถ โฅ am all about PC-centric stories ๐ถ โฅ love discovering the narrative of the campaign with my players ๐ถ โฅ love decision trees and plot spiderwebs ๐ถ โฅ believe there are no wrong choices, only spicy or carefully seasoned choices ๐ถ โฅ am 100% convinced dice have souls ๐ถ โฅ am GMT+3 I believe there is nothing cooler than exploring the depths of dฬถeฬถsฬถpฬถaฬถiฬถrฬถ the human soul and feeling things together. I will do everything I can to create incredible highs and devastating lows that weave together to give you memories and stories to be cherished forever. There is a somewhat less talked about 4th pillar of play in D&D and TTRPGs in general: Feelings. I believe in fostering a safe space to bring our true selves out to play and experience many wonderful feelings as we unravel mysteries, experience drama, laugh hysterically, defy the odds, or curb-stomp the baddies while turning the story we tell into something deeply personal. Hop on my discord server and scoop out the vibe! https://discord.gg/X34fVqCDV6 Hope we'll play together sometime and in the meantime, may your tales be blessed!

I believe every action, whether carefully planned or spontaneous, adds to the richness of our shared story. Together, we'll craft memorable adventures where you'll wonder about the paths not taken, yet feel satisfied with the choices that define our unique story.

Sets the Mood
I've only recently returned to TTRPGs after a long time and I could not have hoped for a better DM Nhilas makes great stories, weaves them amazingly with player stories, and goes above and beyond to give everyone ways to shine. Everything is amplified through great character roleplay, on-point soundscapes and diverse and fun encounters (not only battles). He is very welcoming of both new and old players and accommodates each excellently and makes sure everyone involved is having fun. I look forward to every session and I don't say that lightly.
We had a blast with him! I especially loved the encourangment for visual acts and representation, the freedom I felt during the game but as actions to take and as lines and dramatic interpretations. Would totally recomend him as a gm. I had all the right feelings as for how a d&d game should be.
If you're looking for a Dungeon Master who embodies the essence of creativity, passion, and dedication, look no further than Nhilas. His games are nothing short of legendary, setting a new standard for what it means to be an extraordinary DM. From the moment you step into one of Nhilas' campaigns, you're transported to a world that is as immersive as it is meticulously crafted. His worldbuilding is unparalleledโevery detail is thoughtfully considered, making the settings rich, vibrant, and alive. Whether you're traversing a mystical forest, delving into ancient ruins, or navigating the politics of a sprawling city, you can feel the depth of his imagination at work. But what truly sets Nhilas apart is his use of voices, music, and visual aids. His characters spring to life with distinctive voices that add layers of personality and authenticity, making every interaction memorable. The atmosphere he creates with carefully chosen music elevates the mood of each scene, whether it's a tense battle, a heartfelt conversation, or a moment of suspense. And the visual aids he providesโmaps, illustrations, handoutsโbring the world into even sharper focus, making you feel like you're truly there, experiencing every twist and turn firsthand. Playing in one of Nhilas' games isn't just about rolling dice and defeating monsters; it's about being part of a story that you will remember long after the campaign ends. His ability to weave intricate plots, develop compelling NPCs, and balance epic moments with personal character growth is a testament to his mastery of the craft. But beyond all this, what makes Nhilas truly special is the camaraderie and respect he fosters at the table. He not only cares about the game but also about the players, ensuring that everyone feels included, valued, and part of the journey. It's been an honor and an absolute pleasure to be part of his games, but more than that, it's been a privilege to call him my friend. His dedication to his craft and to his players is inspiring, and I can say without hesitation that Nhilas is a Dungeon Master like no other. If you ever have the chance to play in one of his games, don't hesitateโyou'll be embarking on an adventure of a lifetime.
He knows his D&D, is a fun guy to be around, can create a visual story, is very open to creativity and integrated all the little elements in the story. I recommend an experience with him. His English is impeccable and is able to integrate all the players, even the more introverted ones.
Been playing togheter for almost 2 years now, he is an awesome DM. If I could give him all the tags I would but I am allowed only 3. Great world building skills, alot of detail and life to the world he creates. You can expect having music, handouts and all you need in his campaign to get immersed. The things I appreciate the most: - patience and understanding, I tend to be a bit scatterbrained so I have a hard time remembering rules or just focusing sometimes so playing with a DM that could offer support and be kind helped me enjoy the game more - Attention to player characters, does a great job at weaving the character stories in the campaign and just creating cool moments - A living breathing world, as I noted before the world is rich and there always is something going down - Communication, easy to talk about anything you need in the game and open to suggestions
