How Ben Heisler runs games

I’m comfortable DMing from first to over 20th level, and my goal as a DM is to make an exciting, challenging, and memorable experience with social, environmental, and conflict encounters. Protecting the health of players is central to my DM philosophy, and we will incorporate safety tools such as lines and veils into our game’s, as well as the X card. Diversity & inclusion are key aspects of storytelling for my games – expect a wide variety of folx of various skin tones, ancestries, backgrounds, sexuality, and ability. 100% trans, queer, LGBTQ+, and POC friendly. At my table, you can expect funny voices, challenging conflicts in interactive set piece locations, puzzles, and moral quandaries.
