About Cake

Greetings, I'm Cake! I'm your easy going facilitator of both in-person and online quests in Dungeons and Dragons 5e, Daggerheart, & Call of Cthulhu. I've been a storyteller my whole life, but about six years ago I fell in love with the TTRPG medium & I haven't looked back! The art of creating adventures and crafting tales has captivated me since my childhood & now that I've found TTRPGS, these wild ideas have been evolving into handcrafted memorable campaigns. I like to blend fantasy, horror, & humor into a a few hours of gaming where we can just sink into our characters & the scenes. Shared storytelling is one of my favorite things about TTRPGs, as a DM, I set up the world & you knock it down, sometimes literally... Join me on our collective journey through thrilling escapades, where laughter, challenges, and unforeseen surprises await. Together, we'll co-create stories and forge memories to live in our hearts forever.

I became a GM because

I really liked supporting my fellow players in RP & Combat so I decided to take that energy into GMing. I also love monsters.

My favorite movies change all the time, but today, my top 5 favorite movies are: Big Fish Young Guns Tár The Labyrinth Love And Monsters

When I'm not running games I'm...

with friends & family chilling, going on long walks, & creating work in different mediums, mostly Film, TV, & Video Games.

How Cake runs games

I love leaning into rp, & I thrive on creating impactful & challenging battles/encounters. The players are the main characters & I'll be there to cheer on your accomplishments. When things get tough we'll get though it together.

Featured Prompts

I prep by

finding the monster first usually. Once I figure out the villains, I can start putting world pieces together. But my favorite part is setting up story hooks for the players based on their backstories.

Rules are...

there for a reason, but can bend for sure. I'm a Rule of Cool fan, but as long as it makes narrative sense.

Cake's ideal table

My ideal table is that everyone is there to support each other. If a fellow player is having an off night, we'll be there for them, & help out to bring them into the story. I've been very lucky with my campaigns & I've had many incredible players who do just that. It's a joy to watch.
