About Dijay Synclaire

GOOD MORNING ADVENTURERS!!! I am a dungeon master of 3 years who focuses on trying to provide a deep and enriching story for my players. My main goal is to give you a D&D experience that I would truly enjoy. I focus on making tactical combat, fun puzzles and mysteries and engaging DRAMATIC role-play. 

I play the game with RAW but I also love the rule of cool. I try to keep an open door policy and make sure to respond within 1 hours of any questions asked. And I make sure to try to bring your character AND THEIR BACKSTORY to life throughout the campaign. I host an Inclusive Table that is always LGBTQ+ and BIPOC friendly. Game Info: • System: D&D 5.5e (The 2024 rules) • Platform: D&D Beyond + [VTT/Discord] + Foundry VTT • Schedule: Weekly — I run a campaign nearly every day, so there’s likely a spot for you! I look forward to playing the game I love and obsess over with you.

I became a GM because

It is one of my FOREVER Hyperfixations. I read new things that come out, make wacky characters that focus on the little things in the game, and enjoy learning new obscure rules.

I got started GMing...

With an in-person game with friends. Now I run my own in-person game with my friends, and we are going strong.

When I'm not running games I'm...

Thinking about running games. Playing video games. Doing some reading, working out, or tech stuff.

How Dijay Synclaire runs games

Hey! I’m a Game Master who runs D&D 5.5e (2024 Rules) using RAW (Rules As Written), but don’t let that fool you, I love to Homebrew as well. I’m also very story-driven, and I put a huge emphasis on weaving character backstories directly into the world. I make sure to give you full reigns on the backstory with a character that starts with 1 free feat at level one inside a point buy system. We also take one common magic item at level one. We take average health on level ups, multi-classing is allowed, and I am very generous with magic items as long as you earn them or buy them. 

I am not using circle magic or bastions at the moment but I am sure I will find some fun ways to incorporate both those things in the future. I use the main rules and expanded rules and a few third party books as well, so believe me when I tell you that the variety, as far as building your character is concerned, is there. I aim for a balanced mix of roleplay, puzzles, mystery, and combat, with DYNAMIC encounters and meaningful downtime activities. I love working with players to help their characters feel real. If you’re here to tell a great story, dive into your character, and explore a world that reacts to your choices, we’re gonna get along just fine.
