About Ziz
Heya, I'm Ziz, and I've been playing TTRPG's for over 10 years, and DM'ing for just over 8 of those. I've always loved fantasy stories, reading and telling them and experiencing them in games and books. I love high fantasy and DnD 5e but I've dabbled in other systems, you can expect a fun game where I do my best to incorporate player ideas and stories into the emerging narrative as we work together to make a fun, and comfortable experience for everyone at the table. I love sharing this hobby with new people and trying my best to give them the best impression of it, I genuinely think that there's not a person out there who can't have fun with at least one kind of TTRPG. My goal is first and foremost for people to have a fun, safe, and comfortable time at my table where we can create cool, fun, and memorable stories together.

How Ziz runs games
My games tend to be more narrative in nature, while I'm a wargamer at heart and love intense DnD combat and tactical battles, I find the best part of this hobby (for me) is the collaborative storytelling that comes from creating a living world and how it reacts to the player's choices. I strive to maintain a good balance between all aspects of play, but ideally you can expect a good amount of roleplay, interesting storylines and emergent character-driven narrative interwoven with (hopefully) fun combat and exploration.

When it comes to voices
I give it my best shot, but most of the time they're really not that good or distinguishable from each other. But I do try! I promise!
Ziz's ideal table
I strive and prefer tables where we all enjoy a healthy mix of combat and RP, diving deep into character backstories and weaving a cool narrative together within a living world. I try to make fun combat mechanics, and usually do 60% RP and 40% Combat balance in DnD. My favorite feeling is being fully immersed, where we can all join in imagination and live out these stories in a world that feels real and fun.

I am for a vibe that's...
A serious campaign with moments of levity and fun, where characters take their role seriously in the world and we can all enjoy a cool story. I aim for exploration and wonder vibes with emotional scenes and cool combats (LotR, Frieren, Mass Effect, etc)
