About DM Sean

I have been playing D&D on and off since the early 80's. Though I am newer to running games on Startplaying, I have lots experience running games both in-person and online including multi-year campaigns, games at large gaming conventions, and an active West Marches campaign in my own online sandbox world. I run a player-driven story-centered game with technical combats. I have a Roll20 pro account (over 10,000 hours logged) and use all the tools like dynamic lighting to improve our game. I use DnD Beyond for character creation so my players have access to all the 2024 source books and many of the important 2014 books that support the new rules (Tasha's, Sword Coast, Xanathars, Eberron, Monsters of the Multiverse, Fizbans Dragons, Bigsby's Giants). I like to make my own maps, a passion of mine. I use Discord for a gathering place and voice channel. You can expect dynamic ambiance music to support the game.

How DM Sean runs games

I am an easy going DM that loves the game. I try to keep it RAW/RAI but will make judgment calls on the fly to keep the game moving. I will lean towards story over mechanics if the story is good. With that said, I am a bit of a min/maxer as a player and will provide technical combats that will require more than "I hit it again with my mace" to be successful. I always try to play in character with my NPC's and have a few voices but I am no voice actor.

DM Sean's ideal table

I prefer a high fantasy table where the characters are heroes that do great things! I like players that are willing to cooperate with one another to be successful and collaborate to tell a collective story - no lone wolfs, no villains, no "I'm the main character", and no murder-hobo's.
