About me
If you want a good balance between serious drama and utter ridiculousness, I'm your guy. I'll bring the emotional damage while dropping puns left and right. I got my start back in the early 90's but didn't truly find my passion for TTRPG's until I found 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons. I've also been running a few homebrewed Dragonlance campaigns for the last few years, and have happily introduced Krynn to many folks since. My games are always roleplay heavy, but can tailor any game to appeal to a group's needs and wants. Let's roll some dice!
GM Style
š§āāļøHeavy Roleplay šlots of voices (some great, some not) šridiculous npc names (very often puns) šemotional damage š¤£with levity throughout, š¤¬and when amongst adults I free the f-bombs. š“That said, I can run for all ages and experience levels. Want to learn? I am happy to help you. Though the best way to learn how to play a game, is to play it. The rest will come with time, and I have all the patience in the world. I've also been running and playing solely online virtually for the last 8 years, so I can certainly help anyone adjust to online play. If you are curious about my GM style, a lot can be seen on my Twitch page. I run and play in a lot of streamed games. Most games I currently run are set in Dragonlance using D&D5e. Upon request I can easily run a homebrew setting of mine or run a game set in thr Retroverse using Lasers & Liches from Chris Lock and Lluis Abadias. I can also run a Vampire the Masquerade game using the Revised (aka 3rd edition).

Dude, Matty loves when players absolutely steal the scene! He is amazing at setting up fun challenges and then saying, āGo nuts!ā And using safety tools like Lines and Veils helps everyone at the table feel OK doing their best weird wonderfulness. And while he knows the rules backwards forwards and upside down, theyāre there to facilitate a rocking fun game.
Matty is an incredible storyteller that combines a great role playing experience with a hefty dose of humor. He's very well versed in the game materials and can weave a very creative and engaging story experience. Matty goes the extra mile to make sure his players are included and engaged, both as individual characters and the group as a whole.
Matty is an amazing story teller, incredibly inclusive, very safe, and so talented at integrating players of all experience levels. He weaves amazing hooks and lets his players explore and build without railroading them. He adds in fun NPCs and each one is unique and easy to remember. 10/10 recommend Matty all day every day, Iām blessed to have been able to play as much with him as I have.
Matty is a terrific GM with tons of experience running a variety of TTRPG systems! He fosters a safe and inclusive space for players to work together to enjoy their collaborative storytelling experience. Whether you're just getting started or have played for years, Matty will craft the perfect game for you and your fellow players! He's also open to homebrew and willing to work with players so you can do cool, in-character shenanigans that enhance the fun for everyone at the table. Cannot recommend enough!!
Fantastic storyteller, I wish I could select them all. Matty creates fantastic worlds for the players to play in, gives an excellent story thread for them to follow while creating a cast of memorable NPCs. If you're an experienced player, this is a great GM to enjoy. If you're a new player, it is ALSO a great experience, if you've ever been wanting to dive into the world table-top roleplaying, Matty creates a safe, fun environment and a great place to learn. I seriously can't recommend him enough. If you're on the fence, just do it! Play in one in one of his games!
