About me

Have been playing TTRPGs on and off for over 30 years (primarily D&D 2E through 3.5 and Classic World of Darkness). Drifted out of the hobby for a while but have found my way back in the past year. Dove back into D&D 5E last year and have been learning Pathfinder 2E over the past couple of months. Finding it harder to game with local friends as regularly as I'd like (scheduling only gets harder the older you get!), so I'm hoping to find some good groups on here.

My preferences

I like to play...

Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Pathfinder 2e
Changeling: The Dreaming 20th Anniversary Edition

Jack is an exceptionally talented GM who breathes life into the worlds that his games are set in, making for a vibrant and truly engaging experience. He takes special care to ensure that beginners feel comfortable at the table and allow them to build their confidence as they learn the system and their character at their own pace. He engages with his players so that they are truly partners in telling the story, encouraging them to take risks and try whatever idea they might come up with and he runs with it and, most importantly, that their decisions truly matter and are shaping the world as we explore it. After putting so many hours into Baldur's Gate 3, I had a craving to play in a Forgotten Realms campaign. There were plenty of options out there, but Jack's "Down & Out in Baldur's Gate" campaign instantly grabbed my attention. I had hoped to snag the last seat at the table, but another player was already in talks with Jack to join the campaign. Jack said he had one other person who did not get into the campaign in time and immediately offered to open up a second table and was super accommodating regarding the scheduling to make sure the day and time worked for us. It didn't take long until enough seats were filled for the campaign to start. Since then, it's been an absolute blast playing at Jack's table and getting to explore his Baldur's Gate, with references and cameos from well-known personages from the Forgotten Realms. I honestly am always looking forward to Saturday nights so that I get to explore more of Baldur's Gate and see what else there is to find. I would recommend Jack as a GM to any player, beginner or veteran, looking for a truly immersive and collaborative experience.

Cai comes to his table with boundless knowledge that he expertly shares with his players. Coming into Pathfinder for the first time, I felt some anxiety about learning the system. Cai has banished that anxiety with incredible patience and his passion for gaming that he clearly loves to share with others. While I certainly still have plenty to learn about the Pathfinder system, I am confident that I'll finish up this campaign having mastered the system. Also, his dedicated Foundry server is absolutely top-notch and performs at the highest visual quality with no lag or slow down. With such a broad knowledge of gaming systems and so many campaigns to choose from, everyone can find a game that they'll be able to dive into. With Cai at the helm, you will have an amazing experience and so much fun!

Ben brings a veritable wealth of knowledge and experience to the table that makes for an amazing and enjoyable game. He's created a unique and very engaging world with mysteries around every corner that leave one excited to dig deeper into the setting. Beginning players will be very much at home in Ben's game. He is extremely skilled at explaining various rules in a way to make them accessible, as well as taking plenty of time to answer questions. Veteran players will find a deeply rewarding experience with challenges that are difficult, but well balanced with creative encounters that will keep you on your toes. You'll be absolutely drawn into the worlds that Ben creates and when a session ends, you'll be eager for the next one. Do not pass up the chance to join one of his games!
