About Wes Wilson

With over 30 years experience running games, I've developed an engaging voice and a sense for adventure. I have recently moved over to Pathfinder 2E and found myself fixated on creating compelling environments in FoundryVTT. To entertain my friends, I spent several months developing a campaign that combined hundreds of pages of content from Paizo and other sources into a strong introductory Pathfinder Campaign. This series runs from the Beginner's Box through the Abomination Vaults, with additional material from Trouble in Otari and Abomination Vaults: Expanded. I've translated all this information into maps and journal entries for the region that give players a wider array of plot hooks and roleplaying opportunities. I've been an online personality for two decades, hosting popular podcasts, streams, and gaming let's plays. I'm open to recording and/or streaming the session if the players unanimously agree to it.

I became a GM because

I love creating environments where people discover themselves and their characters. My energy & excitement for the game get more investment and engagement than most. There is nothing like seeing players make their way through the unwinnable & succeed when they thought they'd lost.

When I'm not running games I'm...

Running conventions and events, streaming video games, playing board games, reading bizarre TTRPG books, hitting concerts, crafting dinner for my family, working (grumble grumble), working out, and the occasional burn.

How Wes Wilson runs games

My style tends to focus on tense tactical combats that result from motivated roleplaying with complex characters. I don't have an arsenal of entertaining voices, but I do have a supply of intelligent and discrete NPCs, whose motivations and plans can be learned through interaction and engagement.
