About William
Hi! I'm William and I've been a dungeon master for 5th edition Dungeons and Dragons for over three years now! I typically play homebrew campaigns, but also run modules as well! My goal in any game is to match the experience to the players so that each one of them has a session that lets them shine individually, as well as encouraging and rewarding the heart of the game: teamwork! I love good roleplay in my games but I am also quite familiar with tactical combat, making each character feel integral to the game! I look forward to playing with you all!

Likely reading. I love growing my book collection; my favorite genres are fantasy, gothics, and history!
How William runs games
My Gm style is pretty versatile, but my strong suits are world building, roleplay, and tactical combat while keeping things quick! I do like to do voices as well, and have a pretty good sense of when some humor is needed! Putting the players first and telling a story that feels great for their characters is always my first priority however.

William's ideal table
I like to keep a focused table when I run my games. People who know when to share the spotlight is a great trait to have in any narrative game, so I'm always looking for that. Inclusivity is a must at my table!
