Erik is an excellent GM. He has run both published campaigns and games set in his own worlds with me, and both were engaging and fun. He's great at communicating the rules to new players and strikes a good balance between adherence to the rules and ability to improvise to meet the needs of the current situation. He always puts a lot of work into preparation, bringing great maps and visual aids, dressing up and performing his characters' voices, which he keeps lighthearted and never takes himself too seriously. I've played in one-shots and long campaigns with him and he has always balanced the pacing of his sessions perfectly. He's also good at permitting player creativity without allowing one player to take time or fun away from the others. Overall, he's a great GM who knows D&D very well and has a lot of experience.
