About Me

I've been in love with TTRPGs (and D&D specifically) since the mid-80s. For me, it's always been about the collaborative storytelling process. I've been DMing for 10 years and I love playing with diverse groups who each bring their own ideas, experiences and secret sauce to the table to make characters, environments and events come alive.

I've recently learned that I need to double-down on that which brings me the most joy: collaborative storytelling through D&D. My goal is to provide a safe space for people to come together and explore their creativity and beat up the metaphorical monsters that are tough to face in the real world.

About My Games

1️⃣ Express your needs. Share your opinions. I will listen (and help if I can).
2️⃣ Rule of cool.
3️⃣ Character arc over plot.
4️⃣ Everyone at the table deserves to have fun and to share in the spotlight (if they are comfortable with it).
5️⃣ No restrictions on character classes or option in my games. We use officially published material from DnDBeyond and you get access to all my licensed sourcebooks through campaign sharing.
6️⃣ I have a unique, collaborative town-building session 0 where you get lots of input on the region your characters start in. And because I've had several groups run through the process, I have lots of interesting places to explore!
7️⃣ BEGINNERS WELCOME! I'm happy to teach.

Tuesday evening campaign (8:30pm Central Time Zone) - Scales of Justice: The Mottled Demesne

(This is a homebrew campaign that picks up 50 years after the Scales of War adventure path. No experience with Red Hand of Doom or Scales of War required)

The realm has known fifty years of peace and reconstruction after the Scales of War. The Mottled Demesne is growing through treaties and trade. Children receive the best education and their parents have bountiful opportunities to earn Blessings. The Everash is finally dwindling and the sky will soon be clear enough to see stars once again.

But now, rumors of new trouble have begun to surface. Parents disappearing under suspicious circumstances. Rabble rousers gathering in town squares, inflaming emotions against the sovereign. Travelers beyond the Ashfells saying the stars have changed and the new constellations tell a different story of the War... whispering that the sky itself is tearing apart and horrific monstrosities are falling from the rifts.

You’ve begun to regularly experience headaches, dizziness, nausea or trembling muscles. You sense a humming, buzzing or thrumming that echoes just beyond your ability to hear. Something is… not… right. You have this feeling that something must be done… but you don’t know what or why. It’s difficult to fall asleep and harder to focus when you are awake. You sense that someone—or something—calls to you.

Will you answer?

If so, you might just…

🔎 Uncover the SOVEREIGN'S SECRET.
🐙 Defend your kingdom from an OTHERWORLDLY INVASION.
🪄 Collect OVERPOWERED MAGICAL ARTIFACTS.
🤬 Make unforgettable allies and UNFORGIVING FOES.
🐉 Master DRAGON RIDING and PORTAL HOPPING.
😏 Influence the machinations of INTER-PLANAR POLITICS.
⚔️ Lead an assault and COMMAND THOUSANDS of soldiers.
🔋 RESURRECT a dead GOD.
🫶 Discover the secrets of extra-planar sight and UNITE SHARDS OF YOUR SOUL across the multiverse.
🌏 Harness the power of an ancient divine engine of creation and RECONSTRUCT A LOST UNIVERSE.
