About Me

Hi, my name is Charlie or Pyro (he/him/his) and I've been enjoying and running TTRPGs for over 10 years, with the last several years spent as a professional GM. I run homebrew campaigns and stories, outside of the officially published material to make sure that players in my groups enjoy a truly unique game. Much of my time is spent preparing for sessions and working with players to make their experience memorable and their own. Along with that, I love helping players develop their backstories for their characters over the course of a campaign, players often get custom quests or benefits based on these developments.

Outside of my work as a GM and regardless of what I do, fantasy and nerdiness seem to follow me around, or I seem to follow it. I spend much of my time playing games or running a LARP in Vancouver CA. You can often ask me about the musings of new games, or the nuances of various card games. Every session before we start I like to do a check-in with all my players to see how their weeks were, so be ready to hear the inane or insane musings of my life each week.

The Game

I’m currently looking for new players for my Saturday campaign which starts every week at 6pm PST. Cradle is my homebrew world that I’ve been working on for a few years now and something very important to know is that it is a Living World. I run 4 games a week in it, and your actions have consequences. Whether for yourself or for another unsuspecting party. This new campaign starts at Level 1 in the frozen and fridge wastelands of Hofors, an arctic-inspired region full of strange elementally-infused animals and even stranger people. You will be taking over as a Roadwarden of the northern border of Selora for 6 months with the promise of 5000 gold pieces paid out at the end of your tenure. The last Roadwardens went missing some time ago and their replacements have been long overdue so talks of further payment for exemplary effort are to be arranged.

Feel free to ask me about the game and what it will entail, if Saturday doesn’t work for you I do have games on Thursday and Sunday that can take more players as well. 

Why Play Paid Games with Me?

With the popularity of D&D rising higher and higher each year, there aren’t enough experienced DMs running free games to handle the number of people who want to play D&D online. I’m sure you’ve seen how fast free games fill up. I’m sure you’ve also noticed how fast free games fall apart too, due to no investment from players or commitment from the DM. Games run by me or other pro GMs can provide a better experience for people who are looking to relax and have fun playing with a consistent group every week, rather than running the rat race of having to start over and over finding new free groups.

• As a paid DM, I have the incentive to show up prepared and provide an outstanding gaming experience week after week.
• Charging a small fee per person virtually eliminates postponed sessions and busted campaigns due to player no-shows.
• People who are willing to pay a modest fee tend to approach the game with a more mature attitude and typically don't quit impulsively when something doesn't go their way.
• Material costs associated with playing a high-quality game are included.
• Players don't need to make any additional purchases in order to participate. Everything is included.
• Access to all relevant sourcebooks is provided free of charge via my compendium sharing.
• I purchase additional materials, such as high-quality maps, to make your gaming experience even better. Again, there is no extra charge to you.
• Your actions matter, what you do in your campaign affects the other games in my world.
• If you want to finish the campaign you start, then play with me!
