About me

I've always been passionate about gaming, and for me, it's all about having fun together. I create games with that same vibe and make sure everyone feels welcome. As a #safeGM, I'm committed to being an ally for all minorities and genders in the gaming community.

GM Style

Safety is paramount at my table. I pride myself on being a Safe GM and welcome lapse players who want to have a good time without being harassed in any way. My gaming sessions are a blend of sleuthing, adrenaline, and role play. I'm all about the thrills of horror and the enigma of a mystery. Nothing brings me joy like a player diving into a role and facing perilous showdowns. I set the scene with rich descriptions and let the players take the wheel from there. I'm keen on giving players the reins of the story, making them co-authors of our adventure, and I favor game systems that boost this collaborative spirit. Thinking of having me DM your D&D game? Well, it's a solid 'perhaps'... Right now, I'm hooked on Free League's lineup. They've got a smorgasbord that rivals D&D in all the right ways: For the fantasy buffs - Dragonbane & The One Ring (yep, that's the LotR RPG!), Forbidden Lands, Symbaroum, Mörk Borg, Pirate Borg, & Into the Odd For the sci-fi enthusiasts - Alien, Blade Runner, Coriolis, Tales from the Loop, Twilight 2000, Mutant Year Zero, and the new The Electric State For the horror connoisseurs - The Walking Dead Universe, Vaesen, Alien, Mörk Borg, & Pirate Borg Master one and you've got the key to the rest, thanks to their shared core system. But hey, if your heart's set on D&D and you dig my vibe, let's talk and see what magic we can conjure!

An excellent session with great player participation and full immersion in the material. The descriptive nature of GM is always an important part of the VTT experience and the way that Chandler reveals small details is great.

I was recently in 2 Alien RPG games Chandler ran, and both were phenomenal experiences. Amazing mood, fantastic with communication, and wow I wish I could pick more than 3 tags! I would definitely also pick Allows for player creativity. He knows the world incredibly well, and any questions I had about any mechanics or what was around me, he would know the answer immediately, and conveyed that relevant info in a way that made the setting feel alive. I'd be thrilled to be in another game he ran.

I have been long time player of RPGs and for me the true test of a GM’s skill lies in their ability to improvise, and Chandler excels at it. He responds to the unpredictable nature of player actions with grace and ingenuity, ensuring the narrative flows seamlessly, no matter the direction it takes. Chandler possesses a unique skillset and level of experience that leads to a rare blend of creativity, organization, and adaptability.

Chandler is one of the most fun people who allows for creative license to your character. He is funny, devious, has great voices, and tells a damn good story. Even without him revealing what's coming up next, you have a sense of dread depending on how much he smiles. I would recommend Chandler for your games! It will be a treat for you.

Chandler is an excellent GM! His years of experience and his passion for roleplaying come through in his games. His top priority is for all his players to have a fun and memorable experience, and everything else is in service of that. He gets excited over your character concept and will do his best to understand what makes *you* excited about it and help you get the most fun out of it at the table. In the game, Chandler goes the extra mile to set the mood and to be very open and receptive to player creativity -- he won't railroad you, but instead fosters an immersive tone where you feel like you could try anything at any time. He knows the rules without letting them bog down the game, and knows how to end a session on a high note and carry a game through to a satisfying conclusion. Chandler has a great sense of humor and a real positive attitude that makes playing in his games a true pleasure.
