About me

Hi there! I'm Jesse Burdick of Riverside Studios and I enjoy running epic games full of impactful storytelling, roleplay, and a more than healthy dose of action packed combat. I run games where your decisions matter and weave personal character story arcs into all of my campaigns. I have access to pretty much any D&D book from any edition, can create a custom campaign/game world for you and your group, have access to all content on DnDbeyond, a private Foundry VTT server, access to Tabletop Simulator/Talespire on Steam, an unlimited supply of audio/visual assets, and am currently working on lots of custom content for my Patreon (5e content and my own Sword and Sorcery series IRONWARD!). For those of you so inclined, I can also run Star Wars by Fantasy Flight Games/Genesys or deep dive into learning how to DM/GM any other game system you might desire that I have not yet tried. I am an avid Tolkien scholar, FWIW! I take a lot of pride in creating and custom tailoring games to the wants and needs of my players. Join me on StartPlaying and you will not regret it.

GM style

I love impactful storytelling, intense roleplay, smart combat (enemies aren't just your pincushions) and I try to make unique voices for all NPC's.
