About Tara Reid

Heyo! I'm Tara! I have been playing RPG's since I was a teenager, I founded the club at my high school and I was a public GM at my Local Game store for 5 years! I love introducing people to the space! I consider us to be collaborators in storytelling, I want you to feel like your character mattered and made an impact on the world. Often former Player Characters will make an appearance and leave permanent marks on the game world - I would love for your character to be one of them! I'm really excited to start getting into draw steel and running high octane action packed heroic adventures! I love sparking a player's creativity, my favorite moments in any game happen when the players think up a solution or a bit of lore or backstory that i never could've thought up on my own! It's why I love DMing! I am a trans femme person from the southeastern US, I highly value a respectful and safe community for LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and neurodivergent folk and I strive to make sure my community is that.

How Tara Reid runs games

Deep psychological Roleplay, we will explore your character's backstory, motivations & growth together to try and build an immersive and 3dimensional person who's journey you get to encapsulate. I love a tactical challenge. I prefer a game with very powerful player characters so that I can send very powerful villains to face them. I am a lifetime player of strategy and tactics games from Chess to StarCraft to Crusader Kings and CRPGs and I bring a lot of that love with me to the way I run combats. What to always expect: Collaborative Storytelling & Worldbuilding Deep Roleplay Engaging Tactical Combat Premium Battlemaps and Tokens in VTT Lots of help for new people Big chillin with the homies

Tara Reid's ideal table

I will adopt any player and adapt to them. I love tactics, I love theater, I love RPG's, I love getting detailed with lore and descriptions, I love artists, I love the people who just wanna hang out and play a support role, and I love the people who like to game design on the fly! As long as you are kind, share the spotlight, and are here to have fun then you will belong at my table.
