About me

I'm a newbie friendly, queer inclusive GM who is ready to have fun and tell awesome stories regardless if this is your first time playing ttrpgs or your 500th. Players at my table are encouraged to explore however they want, with a special regards to folks who are nervous about putting themselves out there or have social trauma. The X Card system and expansive session 0 vetting makes sure that the game is comfortable for everyone involved, regardless of their personal story.

GM Style

I'm terrible at voices, but like roleplaying if the party is into it. I'm perfectly happy to help add description to rolled encounters if the party is new or unsure about adding their own flavor. My focus is always on getting new players comfortable talking about how they want to do their actions and what they can do within the constraints of the system. I want all of my players to be able to go to other games and play with confidence, and I'm happy to break things down as much as needed to get people to the point where they can make their own informed actions.

He was my first DM and has cultivated my love for the game.. I'm now in 3 campaigns, including one of his and loving it. His patient, hilarious, witty, inclusive personality allows for a fun and safe experience for all involved. He consistently goes out of his way to help me learn and clue me into D&D lore/modules/worlds, and always answers any questions I have in or out of game. If you're like me and wanted to get into the game in an environment that celebrated a new player, I can't recommend him enough. The encounters are fun, the NPCs are compelling, and he as a person, is a delight. I look forward to our game every week.

Salvor was able to put together a game for folks who had 0 or close to 0 experience with TTRPGs and provide an environment for fun and engaging collaborative story telling.

As a first time player, he has really helped with building and creating a character that is fun to play. He helped re-create a character mid campaign so that it would be more of an asset instead of sitting in the back. He allows you to show your creativity and is always open to discuss or answer questions about what you can possibly do. He might even give you the pocket sand spell ....
