About me
Greetings, adventurers! I'm Squirrel, your guide through realms both enchanting and perilous. As your Dungeon Master, my mission is to craft unforgettable adventures and immerse you in worlds where your imaginations can roam freely. With years of experience in storytelling and a passion for collaborative gaming and voice acting, I bring creativity, adaptability, and a touch of magic to every campaign and one-shot. Whether you're a seasoned hero or just embarking on your first quest, I'm dedicated to tailoring each session to suit your interests and preferences. My style blends rich narrative with strategic challenges, allowing you to delve into the depths of your characters and the mysteries of the worlds we explore together. Expect epic battles, cunning puzzles, and moments of laughter and triumph as we weave our tale together. Beyond the table, I'm committed to fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone's voices are heard and respected. Your input shapes the story as much as mine, and together, we'll create memories that will endure long after the dice have been rolled. So sharpen your swords, study your spells, and prepare for adventure. The journey awaits, and I'll be honoured to guide you through it. May your rolls be ever in your favour!
GM Style
Here's some things you can expect with me as your GM! Voices that Enchant and Entertain: From the gruff dwarven blacksmith to the mischievous elven bard, I love to infuse my games with a variety of voices and mannerisms. Whether it's the booming voice of a noble king or the sly whispers of a cunning villain, I aim to captivate your imagination and draw you deeper into the story with every interaction. Interactive Roleplaying Experiences: In my games, roleplaying isn't just encouraged—it's celebrated. Whether you're negotiating with a band of goblins or unraveling the mysteries of an ancient tome, I provide a supportive environment where you can fully embody your character and explore their motivations, quirks, and relationships with the world around them. A Safe and Inclusive Space: Above all, my table is a place of acceptance and respect. Regardless of your background, experience level, or comfort with roleplaying, you'll find a welcoming community of fellow adventurers ready to embark on epic quests and forge unforgettable bonds. Your characters are unique, and so are you—let's celebrate that diversity together. Of course, all sessions will begin with a little chat so we can make sure each of our sessions is tailored right to each of your liking! So gather your courage, sharpen your wits, and prepare to journey into realms of wonder and danger. Whether you're a master of intrigue or a novice in search of glory, I'll be your guide through the realms of imagination, where every voice tells a story and every choice shapes the world. Are you ready to embark on the adventure of a lifetime?

As a player in one of Squirrel’s Descent into Avernus Games and many of their various one-shots, I just need to finally sit down and write this overdue review of their GM-ing. Squirrel is one of the best GM’s I’ve ever had in my now 6 ish years of tabletop gaming. I’ve been both GM and player for those years so I feel qualified enough to praise their work from both angles. As a player, I love how Squirrel is patient with those that have less experience in the game, willing to explain or wait to let other players explain confusing concepts to a confused player. They have a good grasp on the rules of DND5e, and when mechanical edge cases come up, they are very good at making fair rulings that keep the game flowing well, and revising said rulings for longer term play. As a GM, I am very impressed with their ability to pace a session very cleanly. Almost none of our sessions have run more than a few minutes long, and we always have a well timed break that doesn’t disrupt the flow of the game. In addition to all that, their ability to create atmosphere is incredible. Squirrel has a well stocked soundboard of special effects that enhance the narrations that they give, and they have music playing that is updated to match the mood of the game. Not only that, the music is optional to listen to, as the Bot they use to play it can be volume controlled for each individual player, so those that find it distracting can choose to simply use Squirrel’s immersive descriptions to visualize the game world. I know this review is long overdue, but I would hate to lose the opportunity to let anyone who is interested in Squirrel’s games know that you will 100% get your money’s worth if you book with them.

Squirrel runs their games in a fun and engaging way and is clearly committed to making the game a collaboration with the players.

I had experience with 5e but zero experience with Roll20 outside of a beginner youTube video and this game went without a hitch. I highly recommend this GM to any new players as they are patient and anticipatory of potential hiccups. I had a good time.

Squirrel is a bright cheery soul and a rising voice actor with a wide range of octaves and accents. Squirrel had a wide pallet of both music and maps integrated into Discord and Roll 20. The dice twisted the adventure in wonderous ways and the rules were readily explained and or adapted to keep the story on track.
