About Lady Silverbeam

I love being creative and I employ lots of game tools, art, music, and visuals as well as real handouts and props! I am a jack-of-all-trades artist and use all my skills to add to the immersion and creativity of the game with campaigns and modules I have created from writing, drawing art and maps, to 3d modeling miniatures and more! Fantasy and creativity have been my two main passions for longer than I can remember. I love coming up with homebrew items, handouts and props, drawing maps, art, music, and so much more. I have been a self-employed creator of various projects with TTRPG content for over 10 years, and have been playing and running games for much longer. Creating homebrew worlds and writing in YOUR character's backstory into the plot for all the sweet lore and drama, is a key part of my DMing style with lots of role-play, epic combat, and a good dose of puzzles, intrigue, romance, and shenanigans. I love playing with newbies and vets at the table of all types and ages, creating a safe and fun environment.

I became a GM because

It is something that helps with my health! Both physically and mentally, as it keeps the demons and pain away. By being able to pay some bills, it gives me the time to create, and write lore, make fun NPCs, worlds, and the like that keep my brain and heart happy.

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Creative, Caring, Funny/Lore Traumatizing

When I'm not running games I'm...

Well, my two "Jobs" are running TTRPG campaigns and writing them as well as crafting and creating for Renaissance Faires as a vendor, along with my brother as the Treasure Yurt.

How Lady Silverbeam runs games

The Players are the main characters and I emphasize role-playing and weaving your backstories into the plot! I am a creative DM and this is a big part of what I offer. From handouts, custom maps, all kinds of homebrew, music, Costumes, etc! A safe place for all kinds of players, big, small, new veterans, old, young, queer, etc. Enjoy being yourself, while playing someone else in a world we would all rather be adventuring in.

I prep by

Drawing maps, building 3d maps with Talespire, gathering npc art, but most importantly looking at each player, seeing if there are personal touches from their backstory that may come up, add interesting player hooks, add some trauma/whimsy and try and get fun spotlight moments.

My games focus on...

The players just as much, if not more than my story plot! I want your character to feel like they matter and not just any rolled character would have easily slotted in. You help shape the story, and I work with you and weave your backstories into the plot of the campaign.

Rules are...

A good structure, and if it works great, if not, a few smart choices or anything that makes sense or is cool and not game-breaking is usually fine. Be creative within or around the structure!

Lady Silverbeam's ideal table

My table must be comfortable and safe. I love it when players are committed to come every week, save for emergencies and important events. Those willing and able to roleplay, work together, and make sure not to overshadow or give turns to all the players are invited to my table. Those excited to learn and see other players reveal their own lore as much as their own, and work together to build a story.
