About

Hello and Welcome

I’m so glad you’re here. So you want to play some role playing games. Well you’re in the right place. Keep reading to learn more about me and what I do as a GM.

 

A Little About Me

I live in the Minneapolis, Minnesota area. Before that, I have lived in every time zone in North America all over the United States and Canada. I am a long-time musician. My other job is playing 50 gigs a year!

 

Let’s Learn Some History, My TTRPG History That Is!

I began playing roll playing games in 1981 with a completely made-up version of D&D. A friend of mine played it one night at a mutual friend’s house and was excited to share the news. We made up our first dungeon, called orcs “irks” and had a great time. That was all it took to get me hooked. Soon we had the original Basic D&D set and shortly after we all owned the AD&D core rulebooks. After that I played a bunch of other early RPGs including, James Bond 007, Paranoia, and Marvel Super Heroes. I took a break from RPGs in 1986 or so and came back to it in 2019. I have DM’d multiple games and game systems but focus mainly on D&D 5e.

Fun dungeon crawl!

Rated 5.0 out of 5
May 7, 2024

I had never played a dungeon crawl, and Matt was kind enough to host a one shot so I could play one! We gathered a table of great players and had a fantastic time exploring an exciting dungeon beneath a tavern. Matt is always looking out for his players, and willing to answer any questions. He’s transparent, honest, and fast friends with everyone. It was a good time.

Matt is doing a fantastic job with my game. He is welcoming, creative, and laughs easily. The game runs smoothly; he makes it look easy. He is asks for feedback and looks for ways to improve, so this will just get better and better. Huzzah!

I’ve been playing D&D in all of its incarnations since the early 80’s and I’ve been known to GM’d a module or two. As a player, I love the way Matt runs his sessions and really lets the players to play their characters to their fullest. I have a bad habit of doing unconventional things (within the rules and spirit of the game) and handles it perfectly. As a GM, I have nothing but the utmost respect for what he brings to the player, he’s always prepared and ensures that all the players are engaged and enjoying themselves. Once this series finishes up, I’m looking forward to playing another adventure with him. Matt is a Rock Star!

Matt fosters a welcoming and comfortable environment, and I immediately felt like I was sitting around the table with friends. Our one-shot was great collaborative fun, and I look forward to another opportunity to play with him. Thanks, Matt!

Matt’s a natural story teller/Writer. He breaks down game mechanics to be easy to understand, and play through. He is also very patient with new players.
