About Roaming Goblin Games
Greetings Adventurers! I'm an RPG enthusiast with decades of experience running countless of games across multiple systems of play. I've been focused almost exclusively on running D&D 5e for the last decade or so and have been traveling the country and working with local gaming stores to bring in new players, run how-to-play events, DM workshops, fundraisers, and even the occasional epic (multi-table) adventure. My years of in-person experience running games for a variety of players of all ages and experience levels makes me uniquely qualified to tackle any challenge that may arise. My DMing style is engaging, immersive, and extraordinarily player focused. I'm here to help you develop your character and tell their story using the backdrop of whatever campaign or adventure we may be playing. I look forward to adventuring with you!

I became a GM because
It gives me an ever-changing outlet to pour my creativity into. I think about D&D constantly whether it's lore, what-ifs, or just anticipating what characters would do in certain situations... GMing was a very natural fit for me as a way to express those interests.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Usually doing research or prep-work to run games. Beyond that I enjoy spending time with my family, reading books or listening to audio books, reading comics, painting miniatures, watching movies.
How Roaming Goblin Games runs games
My GMing style is engaging, immersive, and extraordinarily player focused. I'm here to help you develop your character and tell their story using the backdrop of whatever campaign or adventure we may be playing. I don't like to get too bogged down in the rules and like to bend them to my player's benefit or the "rule of cool". You'll commonly hear me say something to the effect of "that's not really the way it's supposed to work, but I'm going to let you do it this time anyway because that sounds amazing. I love immersive roleplaying, combat, battlemaps, handouts, artwork, and helping people deep-dive and explore into what their characters are thinking or feeling.

Rules are...
There to guide us, but we are not bound to them. The D&D 5e/5.5e system is there to help us have a mutual understanding of how we're going to do things, but it is far from perfect or clearly worded at times. We'll utilize rules that are good for our table, and our enjoyment of the game.
Roaming Goblin Games's ideal table
Laid back players that enjoy roleplaying (as opposed to dice-focused roll-playing) and are flexible are going to have a blast. I like to laugh and have fun while we play. We do this hobby for enjoyment, not to stress out about things.
Featured Prompts
I think it's a red flag when players...
Constantly try to argue and exploit rule interpretations and loopholes for the benefit of their character at the cost of the enjoyment of everyone else. D&D isn't a game that is meant to be won or lost, and shouldn't be treated as such.
