About Sam

I am probably the nicest Dungeon Master you will ever meet! I specialize in theater of the mind and rule of cool! I thrive on storytelling mainly, I wanna know your characters story and how I can expand on that! I will basically avoid killing PCs at all cost unless it works for the storytelling! I'm so enthusiastic towards Amy choice you make and I love newcomers to the game! I prefer groups of 3-5 so I can give everyone there spot light. but obviously if you pay me I'll do basically anything in regards to dnd!

I got started GMing...

Getting my high school friends to grin and bear it through my AWFUL first-ever homebrew campaign. I got better as I went along but I wont lie to you it was a ROUGH start.

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be

Dnd 5e Blades In The Dark Dread (never ran this one, but I fell in love with it when I got the book, and a deserted island leaves plenty of time to play it)

My favorite shows/movies are

What We Do In the Shadows Everything Everywhere All at Once Sinners The Thing Legally Blonde The Original Star Wars Trilogy Star Wars: The Clone Wars The Adventures of Tintin (iykyk) JoJo Rabbit Rick and Morty Fallout Anything to do with The Addams Family Scream Knives Out Franchise

How Sam runs games

I am mainly experienced in dnd 5e, and I love a loose role play focused approach. I worship at the alter of rule of cool quite heavily! I like to have my players help create the lore for there backstories, I love it when you spam me with a long backstory though be warned I will use it against your character! I am very skilled in psychological warfare against PCs. when it comes to combat, since I'm only really experienced in the 5e combat system combat in that and other systems aren't exactly my strong suit, so if you want rules heavy and difficult combat I'm not really the gm for you.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

I love this question so much I wanna say someone like super prestigious, but like it's probably James Gunn. Not to say his movies are bad, quite the contrary, he just fits the vibe I'm going for best.

My games focus on...

Story and Characters above all else!

When it comes to voices

I work more with inflection than insane wacky voices, but also if you get a bit character or something from me I'm absolutely doing a goofy voice, Kobolds are my favorite!

Sam's ideal table

Passionate players who want to explore and enhance the story! Beyond that, I'm open to anything and everything!

I love it when a player

Gets really into their character and texts me excitedly about the things they've been thinking about said character!

I think it's a red flag when players...

Try to multitask during the session, please, please lock in. Or if you need a break, that can absolutely happen, just communicate with me about it!

I think min/maxing...

can be fun, but in my games, it really isn't.
