About Nym's Adventures
Greetings! Here at Nym's Adventures, we believe in a player-oriented approach to pay-to-play tabletop gaming. We're here to bring your stories to the forefront of the adventures published by Wizards of the Coast. We use the modules as a backbone to craft customized sessions for your characters. I began running online games in Summer 2019 after playing with several game masters who didn't seem to care what the players were trying to say with their characters or with their choices. I decided to give the community the kind of attention and enthusiasm I wanted to see in a game master. I've been trying to embody that ideal ever since.

How Nym's Adventures runs games
I believe in a player-oriented approach. Session 00 and Character Creation are very involved so we start the campaign with a good idea of who we are and what we want. I encourage roleplay among the party members and with NPC's. I specialize in voices and crafting encounters that connect the characters to the world of the story. That's not to say we ignore combat and exploration, but for the most part those things are covered by the module and are directly influenced by the choices we make the rest of the time. I try my best not to say no unless the request is clearly against the rules. Instead if an idea doesn't work in the current framework, I try to come up with an alternative with the player(s) that suits the table as a whole.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...
Taika Waititi, hands down
My favorite trope is...
The false reveal - Setting up an enemy for the party to hate then sending them an ally that fits that description, only for the party to have to revive them after curbstomping them in one round. It never gets old :'D
When it comes to voices
it makes me realize this is the perfect career for me. I have dozens.
Nym's Adventures's ideal table
Featured Prompts
I love it when a player
comes up with unique solutions that weren't thought of in RAW, but totally work
I think it's a red flag when players...
support MAGA. We fight fascism at my tables, not kowtow to it.
I think min/maxing...
is a valid playstyle, but comes from a different place of desire than my games usually fill. If your build is more complicated than your personality, you might fit better elsewhere
