About Zach (Zaqary Binx)

Hi, I’m Zach! I’ve been playing tabletop RPGs for over 15 years and GMing for friends for about 8. While I’ve played systems like Pathfinder and Numenera, D&D 5e is where most of my GM experience lives and the system I run with the most confidence. I love creating immersive, character-driven games that balance fun, collaboration, and memorable storytelling. My favorite spaces to run are heroic fantasy, horror, mystery, survival, dark fantasy, and dark academia. I enjoy welcoming total beginners just as much as I enjoy surprising veteran players with unexpected twists, challenging combat, layered puzzles, and fresh takes on beloved adventures. I’m known for adapting quickly, thinking on my feet, and shaping the story around the people at the table. My style blends preparation with in-the-moment creativity, so games feel both polished and alive. I use Discord, D&D Beyond, D&D Beyond Maps, and Owlbear Rodeo, and I enjoy enhancing sessions with music, maps, custom handouts, homebrew content, and plug-and-play module support. I care deeply about building a respectful, human-first table. Lines and veils will always be discussed in Session 0. Racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexual violence, and other forms of bigotry are not welcome in my games. As an LGBTQ+ person, I want every player to feel safe, respected, and excited to be part of the adventure.
