About me

Hello, fellow adventurers and dream-weavers! I'm The Daily Dungeon Master, also known as Chex on Discord. With over 27 years of dungeon mastering, I've journeyed through every edition from the nostalgic AD&D to the dynamic realms of 5th edition—and yes, even that notorious 4th edition! I've also run Call of Cthulhu, RuneQuest, and lots of the 3rd Edition adjacent games (d20 Modern, Future, Apocalypse, etc...). Why choose me as your DM? It's simple: dungeon mastering isn't just a hobby for me; it's a deep-seated passion. Here’s what you can expect when you join one of my tables: -Tailored Adventures: Your play style sets the tone. Love epic battles? Prepare for heart-pounding combat. Adore intricate mysteries? Puzzles and intrigue await. Crave deep character development? Watch your backstory become the backbone of our campaign. -Inclusive World-Building: I strive to create inclusive environments that welcome and celebrate diversity, both in characters and players new and veteran alike. Everyone has a place at my table. -Interactive Sessions: Expect sessions where your choices truly matter. I use dynamic storytelling techniques to make the world react to your decisions, creating a living story where everyone contributes to the narrative’s unfolding. -Community and Connection: I believe in building not just a campaign, but a community. Our adventures are spaces where friendships are forged in the fires of dragon's breath and the quiet moments between battles. Spotlight on a Recent Adventure: In my Sunday Selsuria campaign (an open-world homebrew campaign I wrote and designed myself, originally designed as a West Marches-style campaign but adapted for a single party to play!), a full two-thirds of the party was captured by hobgoblin slavers only for the wizard to escape with crafty use of his remaining spell slots (they were captured mid-long rest), linking up with the uncaptured party members, and performing a daring rescue of the party and others that had previously been captured. Afterwards, while escorting the whole group back to the town, they defeated an encampment of cultists along the way. The cultists worshipped some entity that was not within the known pantheon of deities, and is just known to them as "He Who Whispers in the Dark," an entity worshipped by strange and usually evil creatures throughout the area. Who is this entity? Feel free to join us and find out as we recently had a slot open up due to life events causing a change in schedule for a player (https://startplaying.games/adventure/cm6v1o087000m1ox4k304omf4).

GM Style

As your Dungeon Master, I’m here to create a vibrant tapestry of adventures that cater to your preferences and breathe life into your characters. Here’s a peek into what makes my games uniquely engaging: -Rich Role-Playing and Dynamic Voices: Delight in the diverse cast of characters you'll meet through my array of voices, from the mischievous whispers of kobolds to the gruff barks of goblin warlords. Role-playing is more than stepping into a character's boots; it's about embodying their essence. Expect to see your NPCs come alive with personality and flair that enhance the story's depth. -Customized Adventures: Whether you crave heart-stopping combat, intricate puzzles, or deep character exploration, I adapt the campaign's focus based on what excites you the most. Your gaming preference drives the narrative, ensuring every session is aligned with what you enjoy most about the various Tabletop RPGs we can play. -Integrating Player Backgrounds into the Main Narrative: One of my specialties is weaving your character's backstory into the larger plot. Every secret past, every personal goal becomes part of the epic story we create together. This approach ensures your character’s journey is both personal and pivotal to the world’s fate. -Balanced Gameplay: I strive to maintain a balance that respects all play styles. If your group thrives on combat, you'll find yourselves in thrilling battles that challenge your strategic thinking and combat prowess. If you lean towards storytelling and character interaction, expect rich dialogues and complex characters with motives that push the narrative forward. -Responsive and Adaptive Storytelling: No two game sessions are the same. As we progress, I continually adjust the story based on your actions and decisions, making the campaign truly reactive and evolving. Your choices matter deeply, influencing not just your fate but the world around you. Your Adventure, Your Way: Are you ready to embark on a journey tailored just for you? Whether you're new to the game or a seasoned veteran, I promise an adventure that respects your play style and challenges your skills. Join me in crafting a story where your legacy will be remembered in the annals of role-playing history.
