About me
🎲 Welcome to the realm of adventure! 🎲 Hey there, fellow adventurers! I'm Will, your guide through the immersive worlds of tabletop roleplaying games. With over 4 years of Dungeon Mastering under my belt, I've honed my craft in crafting unforgettable tales and thrilling encounters. Every week, I've led intrepid bands of adventurers through epic quests, weaving intricate narratives that keep you on the edge of your seat. But it's not just about the journey; it's about the shared experience, the laughter, and the camaraderie around the table. Beyond the tabletop, I'm a storyteller at heart. I've ventured into the realm of game design, crafting my own TTRPGs, adventures, and encounters. When I'm not behind the screen, you'll find me lost in the pages of my own short stories or bringing worlds to life through scripted media. But here's the thing: it's not just about the adventure; it's about creating a safe and inclusive space for everyone. That's why I prioritize safety tools and encourage diversity in every aspect of my games. No matter your background or experience level, there's a place for you at my table. So, whether you're a seasoned hero or a fresh-faced novice, grab your dice and let's embark on an unforgettable journey together. Adventure awaits!

This was my first time ever playing D&D after a long time of waiting and wanting to do so, and even though it was just me there as a player in the session Will made it such a welcoming and enjoyable experience. They were super friendly, explained all the basic rules well, always open to chat and explore some creative ideas, and made a great DM during a brief mini-adventure that showed off all the core aspects of gameplay very nicely. It was a really well-designed little “class” covering all the rules and concepts of the game, and I finished it feeling, for the first time, very ready to dive into a full D&D adventure. Overall a great time—comprehensive, educational, and most important of all, so fun!
Will has been my DM for quite some time, and has been an absolute joy playing under. Throughout the years they have grown into a seriously involved, invested, passionate, and well versed DM. Whether I'm locked in, or I'm feeling silly and want to mess around, Will has always been extremely adaptive and inclusive to many different play styles, and always has an answer for what the sessions demand. Their passion truly shines through with each session, and the love for tabletops with friends is undeniably a key tenet in their philosophy whether they would tell you outright, or you see it in each turn you take as a player. Whether you're a well-versed veteran player, or a beginner without even the slightest clue which die is which, I have full faith that a player of any level of experience can fully engross themselves and become part of the world with Will's guidance, patience, and brimming passion. I would send anybody their way in a moment's notice knowing that Will would do a far better job than I could ever do fully breaking down the intricacies of the game. When you've been playing for so long, you forget exactly what it's like to be entirely foreign to the tabletop genre, yet Will has always been able to run back to the starting line and pull them up to snuff with the rest of the party within little to no time at a comfortable and new-player-friendly way, adding another fresh face to the sessions with seeming ease. I would have selected all of the options if they didn't only allow me three, as the genuine joy I'm brought with each session under their guide has always been the highlight of my weeks!
