About me

I always had a knack for imagination and a deep love of fantasy in any form, video games and novels were my escape. A desire for more control and important impact in the stories I adored drew me into D&D, and I've embraced it in full. My friends and even my coworkers all know me as the D&D guy and I've hosted dozens of games for friends and family, I thought it might be time to open myself to the wider world. Come and experience some truly wonderous stories and adventures, pulled from the mind of yours truly! -J

GM Style

I'm definitely more of the deep lore writing DM. From the creation of magic in my homebrews to the inner workings of the Infernal Courts, I dive deeply into making these worlds intricate. I adore working player-inspired lore into my worlds. I highly encourage my players to find some niche I've missed and fill it with their ideas and I bring it into a missing spot on our world. Heavy roleplay, important choices, deep lore, and wild combat are my main focuses!

Jacob is so much fun to play with. After loosing our home game, My partner and I were looking to get back into playing D&D again. Jacob has allowed us to join his campaign smack in the middle and somehow it feels we haven’t missed a thing.

Fantastic and kind DM who really brings his worlds to life with great detailed descriptions and character voices. He also makes sure all characters get their time to shine and that everyone is having a fun time!

Jacob is an absolutely wonderful DM with amazing story telling. I joined in mid campaign and still felt incredibly welcome and included. I always look forward to joining each session and I can't wait for many more!

Jacob runs a very inviting and entertaining environment for his campaigns. He makes sure to include everybody and ensure each character has their time to shine. Wonderful DM for beginners as he is more than willing to help teach you everything there is to know. If you want to be a part of both some of the most insane and hilarious antics in a campaign, he's the DM for you!
