About me
I have been a GM for over 6 years and have run several different styles of games. From hack and slash to deep story driven campaigns where players get to play out their character's goals and ambitions, while making an incredible collaborative story that will be remembered for years to come. When my players surprise me by coming at a problem from an unexpected direction, and completely derailing what I have planned is one of my favorite parts. I love this because it keeps me on my toes and sometimes the best parts of the story come from times like these. As a GM I take the role of stage setter and guide. So please come and share your stories on my stage. I look forward to running a game or campaign for you and your friends or a group of complete strangers that will become friends.
GM Style
I love to play these crazy fun games with a passion! I do my best to role play with voices and have realistic npcs. I enjoy watching players get into sticky situations and find new and unexpected ways out of them. I love to run home brew open world games from the worlds I have created so that the players can play in a world where their actions can have long lasting affects that can be seen in later games. I am also happy to run modules if that is preferred.

QM is a great guy and runs a fun campaign. Is willing to work with his players when it comes to things and also willing to take breaks if a system gets stale and try out new ones if the group is in agreement.

Tyler is an absolutely phenomenal Dungeon Master! Our Thursday night Tomb of Annihilation campaign has been nothing short of epic, thanks to his incredible storytelling and creativity. He brings the jungle of Chult to life with vivid descriptions, challenging encounters, and a world that feels alive and reactive to our every decision. What sets Tyler apart is his ability to balance the chaos of player antics with a well-thought-out narrative. Whether it’s intense combat, heartfelt roleplay, or moments of unexpected hilarity, Tyler handles it all like a pro. His flexibility and quick thinking ensure that every session feels unique and tailored to our group’s dynamic. The effort and passion Tyler pours into his role as DM make Thursday nights the highlight of my week. If you’re lucky enough to play in one of his games, you’re in for an unforgettable adventure!

Best Gaming experience I've had in a long time. A ton of uniqueness from the characters of our group to deal with and we never feel like we're stuck just on the rails of a set story. Tyler always manages to move with every idea our group collectively has. From a planned ambush, to setting up an impromptu fixed martial tournament to try and make a little extra coin!! Also he's been very good at teach us as we try on the new 2024 rules!
