About me
Good morning, I am WaywornWyrm and welcome to my GM Page. We play games to have fun and tell stories together. Sometimes its popcorn munching action. Sometimes its a heart wrenching exploration of emotions and/or big themes. Most of the time its somewhere in between. I discovered RPGs in elementary school with Baldur's Gate which exposed me to Dungeons and Dragons Second Edition. I sat down for my first tabletop game with friends in high school and I started running games very shortly after. I have been running games online since the mid 2000s and have watched tools being made for that very purpose.
GM Style
A lot of my GM style depends on the group and what they want from that particular game and/or session. My number one consideration at the table is to do what I can to ensure the most fun for every member of the group as I can. We are coming together to tell a story and create a good memory, each and every one of us. If I had a group that wanted the exact same things as I wanted then that game would look like this. There would be a lot of roleplaying of each character, everyone would have motives and desires and goals and fears that could be explored. Every place would have detail and feel alive and unique. Combat would be hard and the threat of death would always be on the table, but death would not happen in a way that violates either the story or in a way that takes away the fun.

Julie
Wayworn Wyrm is one of the best DMs that I've had the pleasure of playing with. He's always encouraging the party for creative solutions, has a wicked sense of humor, and helps guide players along their journey without ever railroading them. Wyrm encourages players to use their imagination and makes the adventure a delightful collaborative story
Cheshirization
I've played a few games run by Wyrm over the past couple years. He is very knowledgeable is a variety of game systems and is trying out new ones all the time. High amount of behind the scenes worldbuilding (if your party goes off on a tangent to a random corner of the map, there will be something for you to do there). Likes putting characters in difficult situations, emotionally and tactically. You'll get the most out of your games with him if you put a lot of thought into character backstory and don't mind discretion being the better part of valor occasionally. Very patient with new players, and maintains a respectful and LGBTQ+ friendly table.
Sara
Wyrm is a highly experienced GM with many many years of expertise. He runs exciting campaigns and is friendly to players of all experience levels. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about DND and it shines through in his campaigns. Cannot recommend Wyrm enough!
Wyrmette
Wyrm is a flexible and focused on player enjoyment...while maintaining challenges. He maintains a delicate balance of following a campaign’s narrative and improv based on what the adventuring party chooses. He’s an excellent teacher and is particularly skilled introducing new players to the worlds of tabletop RPGs.
Morri the Loremother
Wyrm has led me in a solo campaign of Stars Without Number for a few months now. He sends me on crazy adventures that challenge my character's morality and my own problem solving skills in the best way possible. A fantastic GM for gamers looking for a cerebral challenge or looking to learn a new system from a bona fide expert.
