About Wizardy Whimsy

I'm a Rule-of-Cool DM specializing in balanced and engaging play for newcomers and veteran players alike. My games are always neuro-inclusive and an LGBTQ+ safe space. You can expect serious shenanigans, lots of laughs, and fighting to save the realm! I come from a background of theme park performance and nonprofit work helping people with disabilities. My goal as a DM is to bring my passion for storytelling, experience uplifting others, and years of running D&D to the table to create an engaging and inclusive space for everyone to have their own hero moment!

My favorite books are

"The Name of the Wind" and "The Wise Man's Fear" by Patrick Rothfuss. The books’ magic system is regarded as one of, if not the most, well crafted hard magic systems (besides Avatar: the Last Airbender). Plus it’s a really good story within a story - story-ception!!

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

patient, goofy, and knowledgeable

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

probably sipping on cold-brew, thrifting vintage, working on my next renaissance faire outfit, buried in a stack of books, or buried in my daughter's diapers!

How Wizardy Whimsy runs games

Vibes: ✨ My style of running games is patient, neuroinclusive, with an emphasis on everyone having an opportunity to share in the story we weave together. It doesn’t matter if you're not super familiar with the rules of gameplay or if you’re a seasoned player, I'll still run a great game for you that puts you at the center of the action. Roleplay: 🎭 And yes, I do character voices! Soooo many character voices. I come from a background of performing for a living for many, many years in good ol Lake Buena Vista, FL, but more on that later… As a DM I love when players are as into role play as I am, but please know you don't have to if that's not your thing! Content: 🎬 I love incorporating hidden clues and plot twists to keep you on your toes. I’m always down to run a good dungeon crawl with traps, puzzles and monsters, and of course epic battles! I usually keep games between a PG-13 and rated R maturity level, and am flexible and respectful to the desires and boundaries of the players. My games are a LGBTQIA2S+ safe space, so be cool! Mediums: 🖥️ My games will primarily be run using theatre of the mind with scenes and a some battle maps thrown in on D&D Beyond/D&D Beyond Maps or Alchemy. I find this keeps things moving and makes the most of our time. Questions? 🙋🏼 Feel free to send me a message, and I’ll be happy to answer any burning questions you may have!

I deal with rules issues by...

Talking it out. My educational and professional background are in counseling psychology, training and development, and job coaching, so I know how to have a learning moment with someone while maintaining empathy for them and coming to equitable solutions for everyone involved.

My games focus on...

Collaborative storytelling and finding your hero moment! I want to make a game YOU will enjoy!

When it comes to voices

I'm an ex performer, so I do them all! Voices are an essential part of the fun and immersion of storytelling and D&D for me. [Note: I take care not to attempt any voices that might be seen as insensitive, disrespectful, or offensive to any cultures, ethnicities or races.]

Wizardy Whimsy's ideal table

Everyone is excited about their characters, backstory, and the fun of collaborative storytelling! It gives me something to play off of and lets me craft what you care about into the narrative!

I am for a vibe that's...

Not really for the hardened, gritty, rules as written players, sorry! I focus more on storytelling, which means I tend to leave things like encumbrance and spell components by the wayside so we can move onto how cool it is when you kick that dragon’s ass!!

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table

Podcasts like The Adventure Zone, Dungeons and Daddies, and that zany homebrew feel

I love it when a player

Plays off other players to help them get into the game!
