About me
Greetings! I am Brent - a mature, reliable, and consistent GM with three decades of experience with a wide variety of games. I provide well-developed, immersive worlds where players and I collaboratively spin yarns that are intriguing, exciting, and (most importantly) fun! Here is some information about me: * Began playing and GMing in the early 1990's * Experience with a wide variety of games from the traditional, such as D&D and World of Darkness, to newer systems, such as Star Wars 5e and Monster of the Week. * Marine Corps veteran, active Freemason, and (home) gym rat * Educated (five degrees, including a Ph.D.) * Husband to an amazing wife, father to five adult children, and grandfather of one beautiful little girl
GM Style
I am very much a Rule of Cool GM who prefers working collaboratively with players to create a fun and interesting story instead of railroading. I do use published adventures/monsters/etc. for inspiration but if I use the content in my games, it is heavily modified. I am definitely not a professional voice actor, but I do create unique voices for major NPCs and such.

Wish I could include more tags! He also knows the rules and makes a very safe place at the table. Loved all my sessions and wish we could have had more!

Nicholas McGehee
Brent was my first DM and he made it incredibly easy to understand the game. His mission is to ensure the party has fun, while working together to create an amazing story. I would HIGHLY recommend giving Brent a try for DND Veterans to Newbies alike!
Fenith
I was a complete novice when I started, He told a great story, made it fun, easy to understand, and a great experience for this beginner Dwarf Barbarian. I would highly recommend taking an adventure with him.

The DM got several friends together with a variety of experience, from never played an RPG before, played but decades ago, to very experienced. After the new guys made their characters and one or two rounds of play, everything flowed smoothly, and we were having a blast. We played in person, and the DM/GM moved away for work. May be worth revisiting online.
