About Zaphi

Hi! I'm 25 years old, and DnD changed my life a couple years ago! I started playing in 2024 and have been playing every week, sometimes multiple times a week. I have now been DMing some campaigns for awhile, 2 of them being Descent into Avernus and I also ran a shorter homebrew campaign. I've also run a good number of one-shots for my friends, and am running them professionally at my local game shop

I became a GM because

I absolutely adore D&D and wanted to play as much as possible! It's also fun to be able to create your own rules and world and give your players the ability to do the cool things they want to (within reason lol)

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

Playing in games! Or playing magic the gathering!

How Zaphi runs games

I love a good balance of combat and roleplay, but I'm able to adapt to groups that want more of one or the other! Sometimes I do a series of short combats to wear you down before a big fight, or sometimes I'll just keep combats about middle of the road. I do a mixture of 2014 and 2024, and am lenient about character creation. I do have some house rules, but all of them are beneficial to the player! I usually only run fantasy settings, but I don't mind some arcano-tech!

Zaphi's ideal table

Any experience level is welcome! I mainly look for players looking to have a fun time and collaborate with each other. Any demeanor of character is cool with me as long as it doesn't result in PVP, or being rude to characters to a point where the player is uncomfortable. I love humor and lightheartedness, and would love to have creative people at my table! But if creativity is hard for you because you're just beginning, don't worry about that! You can always ask questions if needed, and being shy is no problem!
