About me

As a forever DM from the age of 16 in 1998, I've been doing this for fun since 2nd edition D&D. I've tried every system I could get my hands on, and now at the age of 41, I'm excited to bring my games to a larger online audience. My worlds are persistent, and I try to have a good mix of realistic combat, high role play and mind bending puzzles.

GM Style

I'm big into ongoing characters, real decisions with real consequences, and big stories that all tie together. I use grids for my combat, and like to add animations, environmental effects, and encourage collaborative storytelling.

I have now tried to join in two of this GM's games--in the first, he had turned off notifications 2 1/2 hours before game time and so never even saw my attempt to join. In the second, he decided to push the starting time back an hour without updating it in StartPlaying. Not a good track record. Move on.

Tenquis has been playing for decades and really knows the rules. A great DM if you are a beginning or intermediate player looking for help getting used to the system. He has a number of house rules that are well designed and make a lot of sense. Good at bringing all the players into the action, good at roleplaying NPCs. Highly recommended.

Really good at narrating and setting the mood. Top notch immersion right there. I had a lot of fun and highly recommend him.

He was very patient with me as I was learning about 2024 rules and FoundryVTT.

Tenquis ran such a fun one shot and was super flexible and adaptable to the different experience levels of the players. If you don’t know how to use the virtual tabletop he uses, he spends time walking the party through it. He also was great about reminding players about some of their abilities throughout combat, which made the game super accessible. Highly recommend joining a game with him!

An absolutely stunning storyteller with out-of-this-world narrative skills. With his carefully crafted settings and his authentic characters, playing with Tenquis is always a blast. He also has an excellent understanding of the rules and provides for exciting combat encounters. A DM I highly recommend for old players and new!
