About me
My name is Chris and I absolutely love this. I started running tabletop games in high school. Now, just a hair over 20 years later - I'm still doing it and doing it more than ever. Tabletop games like Dungeons & Dragons have given me a lot over the years. They helped an awkward kid from Appalachia learn to get over his fear of speaking to people, embrace his love of the weird and the strange, and to put himself out there. Now, all I need is you. Come make a character, tell me your ideas for a backstory, and let's find out what happens when they come up against the strange, the dangerous, and the wonderful. Are you ready for an adventure? ****** Tools that I use to make my games come alive: Photoshop, Inkarnate, Dungeondraft, Canva, Google Docs, Midjourney, free and Patreon-sourced artwork, Foundry VTT, Tabletop Simulator, Owlbear Rodeo, D&D Beyond, Spotify, and YouTube. ****** DISCLAIMER: I strive to make all of my tables as inclusive and welcoming as I can. NO ONE will be discriminated due to any race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion. All players are provided a content questionnaire before every one shot or campaign.
GM Style
Players-First 💖 - Welcoming to adventurers both new and grizzled! - Character Investment - I weave your ideas into the story/module to make a one-of-a-kind experience. - Hands-on-approach. I try to get to know every player in my games a little. - RPG Consent Form, because I want all my players to feel safe. - Session 0/Safety Tools/Pre-session discussion before every campaign or one-shot. A Personal Touch 🎨 - Customized tokens - Maps and Reference Images - Music and Ambience - Voiced NPC's (Voice acting quality may vary...wildly) Storytelling Style ✍️ - Horror, Thriller, Action, Suspense, Dark Comedy - Situations lead to conflict which lead to lasting consequences. - Rule of Cool over the Rule as Written... most of the time. - A mix of theater of the mind with visual aides and maps. - Rewarding clever ideas and out-of-the-box thinking. I specialize in player-driven sandbox campaigns that focus on the players and their actions in the world. I like to take what you give me and weave it into a living, breathing narrative. **** I'm also available for events and games in the local Lexington, KY area!
