Crit
Founder and Storyteller

Hi, I’m Crit, the founder of CritCrafters and a lifelong tabletop enthusiast. I’ve spent years behind the Game Master’s screen, bringing worlds to life and helping players create stories they will be talking about long after the dice stop rolling.
For me, TTRPGs have never just been about combat or mechanics—they are about shared experiences, unforgettable characters, and those rare moments that make everyone around the table laugh, cheer, or sit in stunned silence.
No matter the RPG System, I strive to create immersive, character-driven adventures where every choice matters. Beyond streaming Actual Plays, I love discussing game design, sharing GM tips, exploring new systems, and collaborating with an amazing community of creators and players who share the same passion for storytelling. If you’ve ever wanted to laugh harder, roleplay deeper, or simply become a more confident GM, you’re in the right place. I’m glad you’re here!

Fox
Storyteller

Hail friend, ’tis I, the illustrious Fox!

In this iteration of mortality, I am a bringer of lovable mischief, gremlin extraordinaire, observer of all things unseen and forgotten. Rarely do mortal forces like time or sleep stop me from chasing down the best story-telling experience.

Over 6 years I’ve been constantly looking to improve and grow as a DM and now I want to help others fulfil their innate potential. I like a silly pun just as much as an intense emotional scene, a girl’s gotta keep things interesting afterall. For me nothing beats being a part of a rich, emotional story that leaves you itching for the next session.

At the table I try to make sure the spotlight reaches everyone, that each individual gets their chance to shine. That they get to take away a sense of belonging, feel deeply and renew their sense of whimsy and joy.

Nexail
Storyteller

Hi, I’m Nexail, and you’ll usually find me behind the Game Master’s screen.

I’ve been playing tabletop RPGs since 2012 and running games since 2015. While I’ve explored everything from fantasy to sci-fi, homebrew worlds have always been where I feel most at home. Building living cultures, believable histories, and worlds that feel like they’ve existed long before the players arrived is one of my favorite parts of the craft.

What fascinates me most about tabletop roleplaying is that, although we know the story is fictional, the emotions we experience around the table are often very real. Triumph, loss, fear, hope, sacrifice, belonging—our minds don’t simply dismiss those moments because they happen through the lens of a character. That’s what makes this hobby so special to me.

Unauthorized User
Storyteller and Mapmaker

Hello friends. I am unauthorized_user, and I think role playing games are the most amazing things in the world. I have believed that since I first started playing Dungeons and Dragons in the 80’s. I was playing when AD&D became a thing, and now there are so many more editions and so many more games. But one thing has never changed, and that is the magic of collaborative storytelling. Every game is a story, and every story is full of possibilities just waiting for us to take the time and tell then. The time we spend together is time well spent; be it laughter and tears, fights or feasts.

I love introducing new players to games, and giving them the opportunity to experience play for the first time. I love working with established players and helping them experience something new for the first time. And I love playing to the audience, pulling them in to a story beyond what they could have imagined.

Dani
Content Writer

Hello my fellow whimsical beings! My name is Dani AKA The BeeHive and I am the designated writer for the CritCrafter’s patreon and shop! In the daytime I am a psychology student and all around hobby collector, and by night I spend my time streaming and blogging. My dream has always been to inspire others to indulge in the creative field as narrative has long been humanities way of remaining connected to one another. I have been writing professionally for 9 years and began my journey as a ttrpg author five years ago. I am now continuing that journey with this fantastic group of supportive, amazing creators as I also write my first official fantasy novel!

roll

Rollthemisadventures
Head Director and Community Liason

Hey friends, its me RolltheMisadventures, you can call me Roll or RTM. I am the Head Director and Community Liaison here for the CritCrafters. I’ve been playing ttrpg’s for as long as I can remember but more recently sat behind the GM screen and ive never looked back. I really enjoy worldbuilding and take pride in my own world called Nyakin. I like my players to be able to build the world along with me as it isn’t just mine but theirs as well. As a GM, I try to give each of my players their own story segment and the spotlight. I also like bringing back favorite NPCs of my players to make the story interesting. As a player, I enjoy causing as much chaos for my GM as I possibly can.

Outside of ttrpgs I’m your basic gamer. When I’m not on my computer or spending time with my significant other I can be found saving furry and non-furry family members alike. I can’t see myself doing anything else in life. I’m also taking trips to new places any chance I get. I love to go and actually meet friends I have made online.

If you enjoy interactive gameplay with lots of twists and turns welcome to the table where in here your family.

Jensen
Director and Webmaster

Hey there fellow Adventurers! I’m Jensen, just a GenX Geek and the resident Web guy and official Crit Wrangler. I’m also one of the Directors behind the scenes here at CritCrafters. I’ve been playing TTRPGs since the late 80s and have forgotten more geek trivia than I can currently recall. I’m an unapologetic lover of all things Star Wars, LotR, Lego, Comics (Marvel and TMNT), you know…all the typical geek stuff we all enjoy. When I am not working on the website or behind the scenes helping things run smoothly on our streams you can find me at the table as a player or out and about in the real world as a Corp IT Guy.

Thou my pipe dream would be to own a medieval Tavern, offering a place for all us waywards to call home.
