D&D Beyond

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Hi! I’m a huge nerd and still pretty new to actually playing Dungeons & Dragons, but I’ve been a long-time fan of high fantasy and sci-fi. I love everything from Lord of the Rings to Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, and especially Critical Role. My first introduction was The Legend of Vox Machina, which sent me spiraling down the rabbit hole into their campaigns, other TTRPG shows, and the incredible immersive potential of this hobby. That path brought me here, and I would love to be part of an amazing crew and help tell stories that can branch in countless directions.
