About me
I fell in love with gothic fantasy settings long ago as a kid that eventually got shelved due to life as a teen on the lower ends of a city. My love for these settings grew after a divorce freed up time allowing me to pursue hobbies and this is where I found D&D. After playing for a bit, a passion grew for plots, character development, and the need for real narrative motive. My love for games like bloodborne and Darksouls seeped into my imagination and has now led to multiple worlds and lore of similar aesthetic. I currently run 3 different campaigns online and would love to share this game and my experience with more people, as I look for more ways to share my passion and make time for it.
GM Style
My sole drive as a Gm is a fun experience telling a story focused on the players, as I play D&D myself for the writing aspects. My emphasis is on story telling, while not having a repertoire of voices and personalities, I make up with character emphasis for players and a drive to immerse players into the dark lore and combat in my worlds.

Jay’s games create forward motion! Whether it’s playing with him in a party, or in this case as a DM, he’s very conscious of moving the story forward with both roleplay and eventful action moments. Creativity is rewarded, and he takes the time to get your character’s personalization involved. He’s also constantly looking to improve, appreciates feedback, and has even written logs for what’s happened in each game. Honestly, for a new player especially, this dude is the sauce.
Jayy is a fantastic storyteller and is dedicated to creating a collaborative experience that allows players to fully enmesh themselves into his world. I have thoroughly enjoyed Jayy's detailed world building with rich lore, and his flexibility to work with players to create character backstories and plot points, and "rule of cool" flavor to create an immersive player experience. Jayy also provides a VTT with interactive maps that make combat a breeze. Jayy is always open to feedback and it is clear that he cares deeply about his players' experience while interacting with his story. I would recommend Jayy to anyone looking for a mix of meaningful RP and exciting combat at any experience level.
