Hi! I’m Ashton (he/him), I’m glad you found your way to my profile!

I’m 33 years old, from Two Rivers… I mean South Carolina, and I’ve been running games for 8 years. I have a degree in Theatre and I’m pretty sure my professors never imagined I would use it the way I do.

I primarily run D&D 5e campaigns but I’ve been branching out into other systems more and sometimes incorporate fun rules from other games into my D&D campaigns (if my players are into it).

I love running games for new players and vets alike. I’ve taught many people from scratch and seeing them blossom as role players is one of my favorite parts of GMing. I also have the game knowledge, wit, and flexibility too keep my more experienced players entertained and engaged.

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community I strive to make my games inclusive and diverse. Everyone is welcome at my table, it is a safe space for queer people and allies alike.

My TTRPG philosophy: That we are gathered to tell a cool story and have a good time doing it. I love the concept from Dungeon World: that GMs should be, first and foremost, a “fan of the [player’s] characters” and I take that to heart. I get so excited when the PCs do cool stuff and I love setting up situations for them to grow and learn about themselves.

I read a lot, I find it influences my GMing so it feels worth mentioning. My favorite fantasy series include Wheel of Time, The Broken Earth Trilogy, and just about every book in Brandon Sanderson’s “Cosmere.”

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me. I have a number of ongoing campaigns with only a few seats currently open. I usually run published 5e content but I have a couple of homebrew campaigns up my sleeve and I’m open to running more customized campaigns. If you have a group in need of a GM reach out and we can discuss our options. I’m open to running long term campaigns (usually lasting a year) and short ones (3-5 sessions).
