I wasn't with Stephen for long but he is an amazing DM, very accompanying, great story telling, combat encounters and overall brings a great atmosphere to the table.

I had an amazing time playing in Stephen's D&D campaign—it was the most fun I've ever had in the game! His storytelling is top-notch, bringing the world to life in a way that keeps every session engaging and immersive. His preparation is excellent, ensuring a smooth and well-paced experience. Now, I’m even more excited to dive into our next game in Pathfinder 2E. If you're looking for a skilled and dedicated DM who knows how to craft an unforgettable adventure, I highly recommend Stephen!

My wife and I have been playing Chains of Asmodeus with Stephen and we've had a wonderful experience. Stephen works with players to help create a comprehensive character to really fit them into the world(Be prepared to answer questions you hadn't thought about before!). He will reward player creativity in both social and combat interactions, not necessarily "rule of cool" but if it sounds feasible then go for it! He has wonderful improvisational skills that our party constantly tests as well xD. We would recommend Stephen for anyone wanting to play in a campaign where they can truly immerse their PC.

Stephen is an incredible DM! We're a few sessions into a high-level Chains of Asmodeus adventure and I'm already hooked. Stephen knews the rules back-to-front, is very inclusive and creates a very fun table atmosphere, and the use of visual aids, music, and Foundry comes together for a really nice remote playing experience. Not to mention the NPCs are really well fleshed out, have their own distinct voices, and respond the way real people would in a situation. Can't recommend Stephen as a DM enough!

Stephen runs an excellent game! Lots of creativity and collaboration from the the get go. He has cultivated a table of players that work well together, enjoy friendly character-driven banter, and move forward productively through the story. I’ve had an awesome experience and look forward to playing again!
