About me

I'm a new(ish) player, though I currently have a long running campaign going with my best friends. I'm interested in getting more DnD sessions in my life, and meet new people, so I thought I'd join a few campaigns. I'd like to get a range of GM types as I'd like to see some different styles.

Jett is incredible. I am part of a 5e system and apocalypse now system with them, and I’m loving both. They have been so welcoming and kind throughout my experiences with them. This includes messaging with questions, prep for session 0, session 0, and during games. Jett is so inclusive to everyone’s needs. As a neurodivergent individual I struggle with certain things and sometimes need supports and I always feel so supported by Jett. Not to mention they are so helpful when it comes to being a beginner with the tech and is willing to take the time to help. When setting up my character I was having a hard time picking a patron (I didn’t like any of the ones available to me) as I had a really specific idea of my backstory in mind. Jett worked with me at length to get me to a place where I was comfortable with the diety I chose, even letting me create a new one based on a diety that did not exist in the setting. They made all my dreams come true. Jett is attentive to each player individually and as a group. They are so keen to make everyone feel invested in the world. We spent a big chunk of our Session 0 just establishing our relationships to the world and each other which honestly made the actual sessions way more fun. I was super committed to the town, the other players, and some NPCs who I hadn’t even met yet because Jett had taken the time to establish stories. Because we all had relationships and stories the role playing came much more naturally. Our first session felt like our 20th session together, I have never had this happen to me before (even though my best friends). Jett was so open to all our suggestions and contributions, always choosing fun over strict rules. Jett does a great job at setting the mood. They have some really fun voices and descriptions of characters. Jett even edited the setting/story to take out some really problematic (and unnecessary) story lines.

Penny is exceptional. I’m still relatively new to DND, and had never played online before and Penny made every second simple and easy. She never made me feel like an inconvenience, in fact she did the opposite - I feel so comfortable asking for clarification or her to explain something again. The technology was a big learning curve for me, but Penny made it stress free. She’s really good at letting you have fun and cause shenanigans but also helps guide you along. The space Penny creates is fun but also a little cryptic, she has you saying “oh no, what did I do oh crap oh crap” But in the same breath Penny has you laughing so hard you have to turn off your mic. She’s also SO fair. The modifications she’s made to the game honestly make the normal Dnd play so much more interesting. Her knowledge and expertise with DND coupled with her knowledge of other RGPs means that her campaigns are unique and well thought through. Penny makes me feel so comfortable and at home when in a session (and on discord outside of session). I love for the moments when Penny loves something I role play for my character and she gets so excited (that she gives special points to be used). You can tell she has a real love for the game. She’s all of the following too (because 3 descriptors wasn’t enough): Awesome visuals Terrific Story teller Rule of cool (but not obscenely) Knows the rules (so well it’s scary) Has cool homebrew Sets the mood AMAZING for beginners Oh also, her voices are wild, she can go from a scary goblin boss to snot nosed little boy to a slithering demon. Truly riveting. I could go on forever about Penny but really you should just see for yourself by joining one of her campaigns!
