What Players Say

Highly rated for Creativity, Storytelling, Sets the Mood.

“Mal is an excellent DM who listens to his players. He is welcoming and accepting of everyone and keeps things well balanced at the table. As an avid RPer, he has even made combat fun and interesting for someone who normally dreads spending hours in it by keeping it fast paced, entertaining, and evolving. His enemies are not simple damage sponges, and act in interesting, dynamic ways. If you want a good DM that will listen to you and go along with your ideas, he is the guy.”

“Great job building/describing the experience that your character is in and he is also very open to feedback and adjusting accordingly.”

“There are so many ways you can judge a GM with, and Mal will probably meet all criteria you might have. From chill banter (both in game and out) - to heart stopping climactic moments, Mal has delivered these scenes with excellence. There is one trait however that really does stand out, is that Mal has perfected the formula to make both you and your character feel at the heart of the story, at the crux of every decision made, even when the spotlight is not shined on you. You won't regret signing up. :)”

“Mal is a great GM who facilitates players coming up with unique solutions to problems. He also gives everyone their time in the spotlight, including making custom storylines in prewritten adventures to tie each PC to the world at large.”

“Mal was the first person that GM'd for me so he had to teach me the rules from scratch. He is really good for beginners because he is really patient and understanding which made me feel super welcomed and passionate. He genuinely cares whether the whole party is having fun and enjoying the session. He can adapt to what the group wants, whether they prefer a role play heavy or combat heavy session. He is an amazing story teller and world builder as he always goes above and beyond to set the scene with music and lighting. Because of this I've joined multiple of Mal's campaigns and I'm still playing months down the line.”

“Mal was the first person who GM'd for me for D&D and helped me to learn how to play the game as well as enjoy it. I still play now and love it! Mal is a great storyteller and is always helpful if I don't understand anything.”

“Honestly the best GM. Always makes sure that every player in the game gets a chance to shine, patient with new players, and with accidental rules lawyers. He has a voice for every NPC and you'll find yourself getting emotionally attached to the most unexpected characters. An amazing storyteller, and loves to allow for the rules of cool. Mal is a big fan of player collaboration too which is so fun if you have an idea for your character that you want to try out. 110% recommend!”

“Mal is an excellent DM! I've played in his in-person campaigns for almost a year now, and he never fails to create an amazing session. Be it homebrew or module, Mal can make any session memorable with fun encounters, immersive storytelling, and intense combat sequences. 12/10, would highly recommend.”

“Soundscape and visuals really set the scene, any questions were answered and encouraged. Voices and gameplay really led to a game you could get lost in.”
