About me
Welcome, traveler. i've ran games for friends and strangers alike. everyone is welcome at the table.
GM Style
be yourself, be kind, and have fun. Roleplay - This is a massive part of the game that can, and will, effect the outcome of the game. Immerse yourself in a vast moving world and NPCs with motives and secrets yet to be found. Make choices as your character, and engage with this wonderful world. Combat - 5e combat is amazing in so many ways. Expect combat to be fast paced, descriptive, dynamic, and dire. Lethality of combat is based on the campaign, and situation. Role play and strategizing are permitted during combat. Combat is where the biggest choices are made and where the story is truly written. I do my best to run a fun game and do my best to cater to the players play style, as well as staying true to my own. I enjoy serious moments, and i enjoy hilarious ones. My favorite times, are the ones that i didnt expect to happen. A few more things - I'm on your characters side. - I'm accepting of all folks - New players welcome - Im flexible - I love a good joke - NPCs have depth - descriptions of everything - improv is great - make choices matter - you can check out my streamed games to see how i dm, although this game is just with friends so the experience may vary.

Adam has been a fun, fair and engaging DM. He listens to concerns, he rewards creative thinking, and is fun in his challenging encounters. He was upfront in telling us that our campaign would be a deadly one and while it’s a slog at times, with plenty of nail-biter moments, it’s also fun. Seriously, I’ve been playing with Adam for months, and after years without a game, I’m glad for the game with Adam at its helm.
I have only played a few sessions with this DM so far but let me tell you it has been a fantastic experience. Knowledgeable and fun I couldn't recommend this guy enough. He's great at setting the stage and making sure everyone gets their time to shine and nobody gets left out.
Adam is an extremely professional and laid back DM. He provides extensive breathing room for role playing, setting up meaningful moments tailored to your character, and a very streamlined session 0. In the games I've played, I've always suffered from anxiety when it comes to roleplaying my character and talking to npcs, but Adam made me it super easy from the beginning to the point where I was actually excited to play my part. I never felt like I was being rushed during role-playing moments. Each npc had a unique and distinctive personality that kept me immersed, all while feeling like a conversation. On top of that, humorous moments were abundant, but never out of place. Adam took a great approach to introducing my character, where it was a contained interaction that lined up with the backstory I created. It was a nice change of pace from traditional tavern intro. Session zero provided very clear and consice expectations from both us players and the DM. Overall I am extremely satisfied and I would highly recommend Adam to anyone new or seasoned alike. The pricing for his service is more than fair, and I'd even feel okay paying triple for the experience he provides.
I've played in dozens of games over the last year, and no one has given me a world as truly engaging and reactive to what we did as Adam. I've never felt so much like I was in control of my own destiny - but still had clear goals and objectives. I never felt like I wasn't sure what to do, just that I knew I could do it any way I wanted and the world knew how to deal with it.
0/10 killed my goblin barbarian.... That aside he is a great GM and i would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to learn/play tabletop because he is always willing to sit down and help players understand what's going on. As for experienced players, he will role with what ever happens he's down to earth and understands the rule of cool and will bend/break rules so everyone has fun.
