About SirDoctorK (Dan K)

I am a GM of around 10 years but a lifelong practitioner in the art of "playing pretend." I work very well with new TTRPG gamers and roleplayers as well as dedicated enthusiasts of the hobby. I am an avid homebrewer running highly collaborative, inclusive, and flexible games and I learn from every session to create even better stories with everyone I play with. I hope you'll join me!

Planning new campaigns, homebrewing content, kitbashing mechanics from all sorts of RPGs, brainstorming plots, and occasionally finding time to listen to my record collection.

How SirDoctorK (Dan K) runs games

I am a roleplay-focused GM with a keen mind for collaborative storytelling and bringing your unique characters to life! I utilize immersive visuals, music, and sounds to help set the scene and engage players. I am also a practiced improviser and ready to adapt to all of your wildest and most creative whims. As a game-master I value and prioritize mutual respect, inclusivity, and cooperation to ensure everyone at the table can feel free to explore, discover, and have fun.

SirDoctorK (Dan K)'s ideal table

My biggest priority at the table is trust and mutual respect. If we all agree to work together toward the goal of an engaging and fulfilling story, all of the pieces will fall into place. My ideal table thrives on communication. I love to do less directing and more reacting, giving players the freedom to initiate roleplay, to be creative, and to push the boundaries of the narrative. If my players trust each other to support their choices and trust me to use their choices to drive the story forward, it becomes a truly magical experience for all of us.
