About me

Writer, Cool Gay Uncle and Dungeon Master (in a nerdy way, not a kinky one) I am a DM with 7 years and countless campaigns worth of experience. I have played with hundreds of players, and I hope you're the next one at my table (virtual or otherwise) I also am the Dungeon Master on the sci fi D&D podcast, The Actual Players. Available on YouTube and Spotify

GM Style

I am an obsessive planner and worldbuilder whose style includes both a lot of tactical combat and roleplaying. I am very knowledgeable about the rules, but also loose with them. The rule of cool reigns supreme at my table, leading to fun and dynamic play. I also have a background in theatre, which sometimes leads to very dramatic and intense roleplay, if that's something the players are interested in. I tailor my games to suit the preferences and play styles of the group.

Tyler is an honestly perfect DM for my chaotic audhd brain. He allows for creative freedom, has amazingly in depth worlds, and helps guide us feral party players without being restrictive. I'm in multiple (read....almost all at this point lmao) of his campaigns and I love every single one - both Tyler as the DM and the environment he's cultivated for players:D 100000/10 recommend.

Highly communicative, clear, good instructions in PBP. The gameplay is creatively designed and allows everyone to do and interact where, when and how they like to. Very enjoyable and easy going!

Tyler is such a fantastic DM. I have played several sessions with him and I have a blast every time. He's very knowledgeable and understanding. I cant wait to play more games with him.

Tyler is the kind of DM who takes our disastrous ideas and quirky characters and makes them feel like part of a thoughtfully planned narrative. He juggles intrigue, chaos, and questionable character decisions with effortless skill, keeping the world reactive and immersive—despite our best attempts to derail it. Final Score: 5/5, would drug a guard again.

loved loved loved this session , it was awesome !!! DM included everybody equally and really helped us as most of us were beginner players but he made us feel like we've been playing for a long time ( as a new player some dm's can make you overwhelmed this definitely was not the case ) awesome one shot :D definitely would play again

We had an amazing game. Tyler made it work with a group with different experience levels, in a fun world. He had done a lot of preparation, and also was quick on his feet when we did the unexpected. Great fun.
