I’ve been playing with Tre as my DM for somewhere around 6-7 years. I’m pleased to say that he’s ruined my dnd experience because I’m now spoiled when it comes to DMs. I’ve watched him grow as a DM to become better at balancing gameplay with fun and story, and he’s good about allowing the “rule of cool” so long as it’s not outrageous. He’s crafted a custom world for us and puts a lot of time and effort into planning both the world and the story. His focus on story always makes the campaigns exciting to explore. He’s a DM who’s not fighting against the players, but he’s also not going to give you everything you want so you can have a power trip. To sum it up, he’s on the side of the story, and that’s the kind of DM I like.

Tre has never flinched at trying to make my most out there ideas happen. From simple, personal stories like an elf reclaiming his innate magic to a split-personality Minotaur and a dead gnome scientist reincarnated into a tree, I could always count on Tre to be creative, agile, and adept at coming up with how to make the insanity of our games work. We’ve been in games together for… eight years now?

I sincerely hope it never, ever stops.

Tre has DMed several campaigns for me and my friends, and every one of them has been a thrilling and deeply satisfying adventure.

At Tre’s table, every player, character, and story is a priority. He puts in the love and effort to ensure everyone is enjoying themselves, and he checks in with us regularly to make sure we’re all included and comfortable with our experience. He prioritizes player agency, letting character decisions drive the plot, while he weaves each backstory and loose end into a rewarding narrative. He knows the rules front to back, making for awesome and original encounters – but he’s always down for “rule of cool” moments if they make for fun storytelling! He brings warmth and purpose into every interaction, whether it be in roleplay, combat, or even discussions outside the game. At his table, there’s a special kind of life present, and it always leaves me feeling fulfilled.

Tre is absolutely a 10/10 DM!

Tre knows the rules inside and out, he keeps the game moving, he is incredibly creative, and always tailors the game to fit the needs/wants of the group – be it action packed fights or role play. Tre puts together some great storylines, and he has even built his own world, Arklands, with languages, societies, trade, and of course, some cool monsters! I highly recommend Tre as a DM.

Tre has been a GM for my friends and me for about 6 years. With him, I really fell in love with D&D.

Tre is a genuinely great GM who really values his players, their characters, and the story. He is more “rule of cool” oriented than other GMs I’ve played with, but he still ensures the game is balanced in a way where everyone can have fun. He regularly checks in with players between/after sessions and gives plenty of inspiration to ensure we as players always have agency in the story we’re collectively telling. Before starting a long-term campaign, he goes through a safety checklist with each player individually, works with us to make our character and flesh out a backstory, and makes sure the group is on the same page about the campaign tone and setting. He’s also great about receiving feedback from players and willing to adjust/tweak the difficulty, themes, tone, etc. so everyone is having fun.

10/10, a great GM and partner in storytelling!
