About me

Hello, you may call me Loup. I am lending that name to you, no fey deals required. I am a DM, mostly for D&D and have been one for almost 10 years now. Admittedly, I have learned a lot in that time about what it means to be "good" and I think I'm now at a place where I can comfortably stretch my legs and run games for total strangers. I know most of my rules and am always happy to be corrected by someone who knows better. I care deeply about all of my players and always strive into any game I run with the goal to make it an enjoyable and memorable experience for all involved. My style is focused around telling stories that will stick with you, with characters that you will miss when the book is closed and the dice have stopped rolling. I love new players and am always happy to welcome someone into the wonderful world of tabletop. If you ever have any questions, are curious about your first game or just want to chat, reach out to me.

GM Style

My main focus and love is crafting an engaging story. This means meaty roleplay, tense combat and an open world full of things to discover. Whether we are running a long term campaign or a one night module, you can expect a little something extra to add to the experience. You will troupe, travel, love, lose, trust and be betrayed. The world is the stage and you hold the reigns as to which direction the story goes. Of coarse, I am here to guide and adjust things as needed to allow for continuity but there is no railroad. If you are new to this world, know that I don't require much. No need to know the rules, though it does always help. The only thing I request is to have an open mind, a desire to create a story and the joy of getting lost for a while, on purpose.

While this is the first and only DM I have played with, I think that my only point of comparison being popular broadcasted games online speaks volumes about what I'm going to share about the quality of this game master. Our ongoing campaign of 2+ years is truly the highlight of my week. This DM has created an amazing world full of interesting and nuanced characters, an immersive and engaging story that is unique and unpredictable, as well as a sense of personal connection to the world and its characters, both NPCs and other players. He's always fostered a very welcoming place for several people to gather and write a story together - and what a story that is. Our game is particularly focused on roleplaying. This is made possible by this game master's ability to make us dive deeply into the world with his amazing world-building, engaging characters, excellent improvisation, and impactful and emotional storylines. I very quickly tune out of the fact that this is the same person making all of these character voices and events, and get completely drawn into this living and breathing world he's creating for us, and with us. That's the other thing: this DM is very open to letting you tell your own story as well, helping you flesh it out and weave it into the campaign. He's knowledgeable about the ruleset, but takes corrections humbly. He creates a consistent world that makes sense, but is very open to homebrewing and the Rule of Cool if it works in the story. He sets out the framework for the campaign, but makes sure everyone is on board and looking for the same kind game at the outset and throughout. He's very inclusive and appropriate, always polite and communicative with his players. He uses various tools that help create all of this online, with great audiovisual aids. Most of all, he's just very fun to hang out with. I would highly recommend giving this game master a shot. As a disclaimer, I was not bribed with any magical items, but am certainly open to that possibility.

I've had the pleasure of playing in their ongoing campaign since a few months ago and even though i was new to an already established group they made the effort to make sure i felt included and informed and part of the story very quickly. They take great care in weaving character backstories into the greater narrative behind the scenes and everyone gets their moment to shine. Overall, they are fantastic at improv and acting as well which makes for an extremely immersive experience. Going from light-hearted funny shenanigans to the more deeper, intricate and emotional storylines. They enforce the rules and mechanics to a degree that is fair but they're never a stickler for arbitrary or fun-breaking rules. I don't say it lightly when i say they are the best GM i have personally ever had in my dnd career so far and i look forward to having them GM for me for the foreseeable future. Definitely a thumbs up from me!

I was a complete beginner when I started playing with Loup. He made it very easy to learn the game, encouraged creativity and made me fall in love with the game and world he created. His world building is next level and makes inclusive, detailed and immersive stories. If you want a great adventure and a great time, look no further.

They’re a storyteller at heart, with equal parts passion and finesse. They’re incredibly considerate to the needs and boundaries of their players, while also being able to embody the opposing forces of the story gracefully. Their characters, worlds, and narratives feel finely crafted while also being flexible enough to for the players to help shape the story alongside him. Without any shadow of a doubt, they’re the best GM I’ve had the pleasure to play with.

They're a talented individual, quick witted and knowledgeable--both in game and life--they have a fair head on their shoulders, a reasonable yet firm GM. No friction has come up in over a year of playing with GM and I look forward to many more. I'm slightly spoiled in that I couldn't have asked for a better random group of people to find and GM is simply the cherry on top. By far one of the best kitten wranglers out there... I'm giving 9/10 because they're not perfect and you shouldn't expect perfection but they're damn close.
