About me

Hello, I'm Scott the DM! I have been playing 5e (mostly as a DM) since 2018. My games are ones of full immersion, with NPC voices, animated spell effects, music and ambient soundtrack and fully animated maps as often as possible. I love and excel at all aspects of a great Dungeons and Dragons game, from fun and exciting combat encounters to engaging roleplay. I am also a cellist, teacher and audio engineer.

GM Style

I will never have more than 5 player characters in a game. Your time and money are important! I do voices, either with my real voice or by using voice-changing software. My games always have ambient and combat music as well as animated spell effects. I pride myself on the quality of maps I use, as I try to use as many fully animated and full-color maps as possible. I also create custom tokens as needed. I am a Rules as Written DM, but I am also a "you can certainly try" DM, meaning you can pretty much do anything but there will likely be a dice roll associated with the attempt. I love teaching new players; I enjoy the challenge of bringing something new to veteran players. I am able to discern and deliver the type of experience you want to have in the game, whether its combat-focused, or heavy on roleplaying or a balance of the two. Players from all walks of life are welcome!
