About me

Hey there folks! Thanks for stopping by. My name is Ben and I look forward to collaborating and playing together with you soon! What I Offer: • A guarantee of safety, inclusivity and kindness in sessions. I use safety tools such as lines & veils, zero sessions, the x card and breaks to ensure this. • Flexible and fun-first attitude during play. Voices galore, goofs, gaffs and gassing each other up. • Customized campaigns that enmesh the story you want to tell with the broader plot. • Deep knowledge of the 5e rules and lore. • Extensive Roll20 knowhow. We're talking custom tokens, exquisite maps, dynamic lighting, useful macros, immersive APIs, I've got you covered. About Me: I have been a consumer of many things fantasy since my youth, and a voracious TTRPG enthusiast since my college days in 2012. I have spent much of the time since in the GM's seat, which I absolutely delight in. Helping others to develop and see through their stories in collaboration with myself and the other players is the peak of play. I've logged over 3000 hours in roll20 and good deal more with friends in person. When I'm not playing, I'm consuming actual play shows and podcasts like Dimension 20, NADDPoD, and Worlds Beyond Number. I also love a good fantasy novel or series. Favorites include works by Joe Abercrombie, Scott Lynch, Brent Weeks, Jim Butcher, Brandon Sanderson and Brian McClellan to name a few. My regular job is providing individual therapy as a Social Worker and there's definitely some overlap when it comes to creating safe environments and managing conflict at the table both in and out of character. I try and bring that kind and accepting attitude to my games while leaving the psychoanalyzing and complex insurance management out of it.


GM style

I am a goofy goober at heart, greatly inspired by the likes of Brian Murphy and Brennan Lee Mulligan. I like my games to foremost be a good time, with laughter and joking around. But I don't shy away from stakes either! Threatening enemies, complex character motivations, heartwrenching moments of roleplay, it's all there for the taking.
