About Zed Jaime
Heya, I'm Zed! Someone with a definitely real, not edited, fancy moustache ready to Dungeon some Dragons! I've started DM-ing since I was kid, and had been DM-ing since. Our game system? A crude homemade TTRPG cuz none of us knew about and had access to the big official ones. It was fun brewing worlds then, so much so that I've honed that habit today. For me, nothing beats a fun light-hearted roleplay with a dash of interesting gritty combat unfolding in a creative play of rules. My experience of hosting one-shots gave me insight on how to keep combat interesting and blood-pumping, not just a slugfest. Years of DM-ing as a kid and for kids had also shown me how to encourage roleplaying more on the table. Be it just flavoring actions, or maybe giving your character a voice, it's all gonna be fun. At the heart of it all, of course, is creativity. Anything your imagination can think of can be done. And it's always great to see everything unfold from one's mind unto the table. 🌟FINAL WORDS Uhh, yea... That's me for starters, more on how I DM below. Of course just send me a message if you ever wanna discuss anything. Hope to play with you and make memorable moments together!

My favorite system of all Time is
D&D 5e. Despite all its flaws, it's what started it all for me. Plus, it has like, unlimited content as far as content goes.
People are always surprised when I tell them
To Act Surprised !!
When I'm not running games I'm...
Maybe helping around my father's shop. Maybe playing video games with my family. Maybe having a date with my valentine. Maybe playing board games with her family. Maybe I'm brewing something new for the campaigns and one-shots. I'm most likely sleeping though.
How Zed Jaime runs games
🌟HOW DO I DM~? Now for the important bits you came here for... For me, nothing beats a fun light-hearted roleplay with a dash of interesting gritty combat unfolding in a creative play of Rules-as-Written mixed with some Rule-of-Cool. I try to encourage players to playout as their characters and give life to this person whose story we're watching, living, & enjoying. It can be as little as describing how you cast spells, or doing dialogue with NPC's, up to maybe giving your character a unique voice. However, D&D is rarely just fun and frolicking. Situations often get dire and dangerous. I've hosted myriads of one-shots filled with all the blood & gore. As such, I know how to hand-craft each encounter to keep them interesting and blood-pumping that goes beyond just hitting a meatstick-with-a-big-hp. Prepare to think outside the box, and utilize everything that you see, for many of these encounters are not just about hitting one another. Rules-wise, I do my best to keep the game following the Rules-as-Intended. Which means, some Rules-as-Written may be vetoed or changed throughout the game to favor what we all think is fitting for the situation. Now, many actions you all will do are probably not inscribed in the rules, or maybe goes beyond the bounds of the rules. As long as its fun, creative, and hurts no one (except maybe my sanity), I'll make a rule on the fly or twist the existing rules so we can pass it off as Rule-of-Cool. 🌟A DISCLAIMER (of sorts) As a kid, I had to brew everything in my poor hodgepodge of a TTRPG from scratch. This easily translated to me homebrewing and re-crafting a lot of lore, stories, and monsters. Although you may find familiar names, faces, or settings, it's in your best interest to not assume that the officially published will be what will be. I've made it so that beginners and veterans alike will experience something new and refreshing during the games. Some monsters may be nastier than the common, or maybe less terrifying than what you're led to believe. Maybe some in-canon worst punishments were flipped to become in-game lore best rewards (ie. being a Drider for the Drows) Either way, it'll be a new uncharted world to discover!
