About me
I believe TTRPGs are the best games. Ever. Where else can you decide to do ANYTHING as a player and have instant feedback for your actions? Where else can the story be tailored to your unique character? What's not to love? I've been playing D&D for over 15 years (since 2008) and DMing for about 12 of those years (since 2011). I started playing with 2nd edition, and have played each edition that's come out since then, spending most of my time in 5th edition. I also have some experience playing some other systems like Pathfinder, Forged in the Dark, and All Flesh Must Be Eaten. They say that if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life. And I'd rather not work, so... I figure I should make a job out of DMing. Seems like a no-brainer.
GM Style
My games tend to focus on role-play and character development, though combat and exploration are still important parts of my campaigns. I regularly homebrew aspects of my games, whether they be items, monsters, or character-specific features.

Tristin nailed it as our DM! He was excellent at bringing characters to life, like an ambitious goblin who cracked us up. Plus, he was awesome with first-timers, explaining the rules in a way that was easy to get. He really made each session fun and kept the game flowing smoothly, no matter what crazy stuff we decided to do. Playing with him was a total blast!
Absolutely amazing Dungeon Master for Hire! From the moment we embarked on our epic adventure, Tristin displayed an unparalleled mastery of storytelling, creativity, and game management. His ability to immerse us in a rich and dynamic world left us in awe. He effortlessly adapted to our choices, making every session uniquely thrilling. If you're seeking an unforgettable tabletop RPG experience, look no further. This DM is pure gold!
Tristin is an expert dungeon master who fleshes out amazing worlds of dynamic characters while encouraging and adapting to endless player creativity. Musical ambiance and vivid descriptions allow you to feel fully immersed into this fantasy world. I strongly recommend Tristin and his impeccable skillset
We are only a few sessions in and this is now the highlight of my week. We had 4 players and no DM, and Tristin stepped in and blew us away with his knowledge and ability to set incredible scenes. He truly lets us explore how we want to. I have been playing D&D for a long time and was hesitant about a "paid DM" but after connecting with Tristin, I couldn't recommend it (and him) enough. His effortless professionalism makes every session memorable, he seems to truly cultivate a welcoming and engaging experience. Beginners and Veterans alike should reach out for an awesome time!
Tristin is an absolute gem! Our other DM had to bail on us the morning of our first game and we were scrambling to find someone, one of our players found Tristin and thank god he did! Its the best 3.5 hours of our week hands down. Hes funny, creative, and allows us to be weird and he rolls with it. 10 out of 10 WE RECCOMEND
