About Null
Hello everyone! I'm Katie, and I've been running 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons since high school. By day I'm a pharmacy technician and by night I'm a DM that's always up to run a game. I'm not very rule-heavy, and will often use the base rules as a guideline or just as suggestions. I believe that the Rule of Cool exists as long as it's within reason and the dice are in your favour! I pride myself on building custom story lines, map making, and story telling. I don't mind homebrew as long as it's verified by me and I'm willing to work with you to make your character fit the setting. I have a discord that's turning into a small community where games are hosted by myself and then a few other dm's who are brand new and starting out.

People are always surprised when I tell them
I have aphantasia. I have the inability to mentally picture anything, yet I've built a custom dnd world with full maps and descriptions.
I became a GM because
when I first played a table top, within my first session the dm allowed a player to kill a character I spent hours researching to build. I couldn't believe that was how the game was played, so instead of hating the game, I learned to run it to try to understand what happened.
When I'm not running games I'm...
playing games or working on world lore for the homebrew area I run
How Null runs games
I enjoy a mixture of combat and roleplay. I custom build maps and do enjoy making objects such as crates and rocks moveable and able to be used to the party advantage. Puzzles, traps, and trivia are always around the corner. Even wandering the world may lead to hidden pit falls built ages ago in a war, to ancient puzzles that lead deeper into the world's history. I love world building and story telling so just choosing to wander around a town some days is an option since you never know what lies silently beneath the cobblestone you walk on.

When it comes to voices
I do my best to make a fitting accent or voice for a character. I might be terrible at it, but at least it gets some laughs out of everyone.
I deal with rules issues by...
looking up information to support which view of the rules is right. If it is something I can't quickly find, I'll let it slide once and then find a verdict after the game to discuss with the player.
My games focus on...
world building, roleplay, and character interactions. I am quite a fan of seeing how people like to interact with the world and with one another.
Null's ideal table
My tables are full of people who like to talk. I have many roleplayers, some who do voices and others not so much. Anyone that is there to join a story and tell a fun one will be welcome.

I am for a vibe that's...
adventurous! I love it when people branch off of the main story and want to explore. I don't mind making custom quests based on what the party wants to do and where they want to go.
I think min/maxing...
makes it hard for other players. If someone has a build that one shots every monster, and another person is there for fun and flavour it becomes hard to balance to make everyone feel useful and fit the world around them because I'm trying to compensate for one.
I love it when a player
asks questions about the world. I've spent so long crafting my homebrew world (down to making ancient history) that I will happily answer anything. I'm quite a fan when people want to know more and work with unique groups I've built to further their own story.
