About Whyamidothis

Hey gamers! I am Henri. I have been playing DnD since 2008 and running multiple games on a regular basis since 2020. I enjoy creating a challenging and fun experience where players can dream big and play bigger. If you prefer official modules and tight rule keeping, or homebrew universes where the only rule is the rule of cool, I am happy to run it.

How Whyamidothis runs games

I pride myself in taking the time to weave my players into the universe, making them central to the action. I also work hard to make the world feel alive and reactive. I encourage roleplay and diving in. I also very much enjoy dramatic combats where the stakes are high and the outcome is uncertain. My players are welcome to play in as high or low magic of a setting as they choose, and I am comfortable running games at any level, though the majority of my experience is in running games between 3rd and 12th level.
