About Roll20Dad

Hello there, adventures new and old! Since you're browsing and looking for a game to join, let me tell you a bit about myself first and foremost. I have been into fantasy ever since I was a young lad, be it literature, games, or art. I am also an avid video gamer, pc gamer and have played old RPG game from the early 80s to now. But there is nothing more I enjoyed most but playing roleplaying games with friends and strangers on the table. That was the time I had my first contact with the Tabletop RPG genre, I fell in love with it. I could not only enjoy adventures and worlds made by others by then, and now I could make my own and shared my stories with others. I started with a lot of other RPGs and became a DM at 18. More than twenty years later, I have been the DM in a plethora of campaigns and events. I've played with and hosted in my hometown and city with huge number of friends and strangers in houses, gaming stores, events, conventions, and gaming clubs. I take real care when introducing people to the hobby as everyone's first time should be special so they can love the hobby as much as I do. My main goal is to have fun games where my players can feel comfortable and become invested in the world I created and the players can journey in. Nothing makes me feel happier in RPGs than listening to my players enthusiastically recount the tales we have created together and then coming back for more. As they say, the degree of success for a session or campaign is judged by how long after the players talk about it. As far as paid DMing is concerned, it is my firm belief that a professional DM is expected to have high standards in his attitude towards the game and the players. And you can expect as such from me. If all the above got your attention, I hope I will see you in one of my games!

I got started GMing...

in 1996 when i got introduced to AD&D by my cousin. I was busy playing PC games in my internet cafe and spending time with my GF and one of them asked me if i wanted to join. So i did, and never looked back, then i started DMing, in the end my gf dumped me because i choose TTRPG over her. hehehe

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

fun, engaging and crazy running way too many sessions. All because i want to give the best experience for them and one of them told the others that they are now a cult for following and playing with me for years.

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

playing PC Games and my other Console game to give me inspiration for running my own adventure games

How Roll20Dad runs games

I'm known to be a versatile GM/DM, am capable of handling both character roleplay and complex mechanical systems for each of my games that I run. My combat encounters are sometimes highly intense, high-stakes affairs, while my none-playable characters are multi-faceted and well thought out for each and every adventure, meaning you will never meet the same NPC twice with the same characteristics except for almost sounding the same, and I love making funny voices for all my characters. At the same time, I never lose sight of the core story goals of providing a fun experience for my players. Most of all, I'm a GM who listens to you, the player, incorporating your content and thematic preferences into the game to create a truly unique experience. You may be coming to my table, but I'm here to help tell your story as the adventure progresses.

I once ran a session...

where one player wanted to stop the BBEG from escaping, so i told him he can use his bow to shot at the BBEG from a distance with disadvantage, then he rolled two 20s, then i said do confirm the critical, he rolled another 20, [me not wanting my BBEG to die] i asked him to reroll, another 20, dies.

Rules are...

guidelines, if i were to follow RAW it gets boring, and i tend to also look at Rule of Cool together with Rules As Written. Because what i emphasize is fun over restricted guidelines stopping my players for having as much fun as they can and i want to have fun with the rules itself.

When it comes to voices

i tend to make as many crazy ones as possible to make my NPCs stand out, an old man or old lady, kids or even monsters or mainly badguys. Giving each person a personality that is different.

Roll20Dad's ideal table

💥 My table is mostly filled with Heavy Roleplay type players that loves the story over combat 💥 Combat is mostly narratives and with random encounter where i will let my player roll for the Random Encounter Dice, Good or Bad 💥 Players are fun and engaging and loves players that are engaged into the story themselves and will complete the players background story campaign 💥 Players that fit and feeling the vibe are those that stays for more than four sessions, and end up being real friends online 💥 We are into players that are really engaging, even myself, hence why many of them are with me for many years as paying players because they love the game i run for them

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table

heavy roleplaying or into heavy puzzle solving or even love open world adventure then they are the right fit for the table, because the players that stayed with me are heavy roleplayers that is into the story and not into meaningless heavy combat.

I love it when a player

do something insane or out of the box thinking when i throw in challenges out of my script. Then i would give those players a set of reward for their ideas.

My table is not the place for...

munchkins or powergamers or players wanting the spotlight, not many of my loyal players love these players, but if you are a min maxer do note that to stay with the narrative and not steal the limelight, if youre into heavy combat to show off your character, this is not the place.
