“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.

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

“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.

In "Sandbox" or "Open World" games, players are given a tremendous amount of freedom to pursue their stories without the restrictions of a more linear game style. Players are encouraged to explore and engage with the world, and find their own story as they do so. These games offer the players the opportunity to help drive the narrative, and allow for the story to evolve organically through the choices they make.

“Realm Building” games focus on the development, expansion, and management of something bigger than a single party, where the characters may find themselves in charge of a kingdom, faction, settlement, or organization. Over the course of gameplay, players might manage resources, make decisions that shape nations, or even guide large-scale conflicts as part of the ongoing story.

Hi! My name is Colin and I have been playing D&D for roughly a decade and GM'ing for over two years. I love ALL things D&D and genuinely enjoy creating engaging,, interactive hombrewed worlds within the Forgotten Realms. With that, I love introducing new people to the game, while also creating experiences that are challenging, stories that are meaningful, and scenarios that are unexpected for newbies and veterans alike. For the last two years, I've DM'd a homebrewed campaign for my friends that, while still perserves the essential core-rules of D&D, has prioritized fun, adventure, and laughter over stringent rule following in every setting. I'd like to bring that same vibe to our table!
