I’ve been lucky enough to play in a long-term campaign with Brian, and I can confidently say he's one of the best out there! As someone who was brand new to the game when we started, Brian was incredibly patient, supportive, and always willing to help me learn the rules without ever making me feel overwhelmed or a burden. What really sets Brian apart is his creativity and flexibility — he actively encourages wild ideas and unexpected plans, and instead of shutting them down, he'd roll with it and find ways to make those moments shine. The world felt alive, and our actions had real weight and consequences, making us feel like we were truly shaping the story. His voices and roleplaying are fantastic, bringing every NPC to life with distinct personalities and accents that make it easy to get immersed. He also excels at fostering an inclusive and welcoming table where everyone feels heard and respected, which made such a difference in my experience. Combat was always exciting and well-balanced, with encounters that felt challenging but fair, and every fight felt like it had meaning in the broader story. On top of all that, he worked closely with me to weave my character’s backstory into the campaign, giving me some amazing personal moments and making me feel like my character mattered in the grand scheme of things. Overall, if you’re looking for a DM who’s easygoing, creative, and genuinely cares about their players and their stories, you can’t go wrong here. Highly recommend!
