About me

I like to keep it decently serious but will crack a few jokes. I believe that at the end of the day, my job is to be defeated and outsmarted and love it when my players get a critical hit and oneshot one of my monsters or find an alternative outcome I didn't foresee. I will ask you to start small in terms of backstory but add more and more to it over time, intending to incorporate it into my game.

GM Style

I like to keep it roughly 50% Combat, 25% Roleplay and 25% Exploration. I keep it decently serious but will crack a few jokes.

Red is an excellent DM. I've had the pleasure of an ongoing campaign where he's shown creativity, adaptability, patience and good humour. I'd strongly recommend anyone to join his games.

Great guy overall! Ran some awesome fights and dm’ed his butt off. Would 10/10 play with him again if time allowed me.

Red is a very skilled GM who asks many insightful questions of his players. He's always looking for information that can be used to help flesh out the character backgrounds. I have played about 6 sessions with Red so far, but I find his game very entertaining, consistent and professionally run.

From thrilling encounters to thought-provoking puzzles, Red delivers an unforgettable adventure that keeps players on the edge of their seats from start to finish. A must-play for any tabletop RPG enthusiast! Also be ready to bring your A-game this guy doesn't pull punches which actually feels refreshing and great. Realizing your characters choices in battle and story matter makes the game all that better.
