Del

Played 6 sessions

I enthusiastically endorse Del as an exceptional professional Dungeon Master. His blend of technical mastery and dynamic narrative leadership elevates the D&D experience to the highest standard. Del's command of Foundry VTT is unparalleled; sessions run flawlessly, with perfectly optimized assets and immersive staging. His deep, current knowledge of Dungeons & Dragons '24 ensures game mechanics move with seamless efficiency, eliminating awkward pauses and rule debates. Del expertly balances mechanical precision with creative storytelling. Because the rules and systems run so smoothly, they melt into the background, allowing the narrative to remain front and center. He keeps players deeply invested in the campaign. I know I will learn a lot from Del. He will definitely improve my own DMing!

Luke (The DM Lair)

Played 3 sessions

Luke is an excellent DM and his enthusiasm, creativity, strong narrative, knowledge of the system, and balance of play make Luke a popular DM. I have played 5e one shot in-person with Luke at the Level Up Winter event and I am now playing one of his Shadowdark campaigns. Luke’s current campaign is an example of how original and creative he is as a DM. In his current campaign players create their own deities from which they create their own world - literally terraforming, creating races, towns, etc. it’s unlike any campaign I have ever been involved in - completely original. Once we have created the world we begin the campaign as adventures in the world we created. Everyone is having a fun and learning the possibilities of DMing.

Kairos Narratives

Played 1 session

Kairos has a rules light approach that moves game mechanics to the background and roleplaying and combat at the forefront. Excellent narrative and player interactions. Everyone thanked Kairos for the excellent session. My character was killed by a dragon who carried him off and then dropped him from a thousand feet. But I stayed online and watched because like everyone - I was committed to see it through ti the end..

DM Val

Played 1 session

Val delivers a good balance of role play, combat, and mystery. Val’s regular session players are solid - which says a lot about a DM’s skill, style, and professionalism. He does not suffer fools gladly. I played a one-shot and want more!

DM Taylor has an original and engaging style. Instead of a VTT Taylor uses a camera to capture a game table. His homebrew world is both creative and immersive from the narrative, NPCs, numerous voicing, and a perfect mix of roleplay, puzzles, and combat. The pacing is great - even with new players (great intro to D&D for beginners) - the way he manages the mechanics both new and veteran players at the same table is rare. You will not be able to fight your way through a session. You need to listen for clues, think creatively, and find the advantage to be successful. I highly recommend DM Taylor!
