dondums

Dondums is an old nickname; most call me don. It's cool that you're here. Seth is my cat. You'll see him pop up on stream from time to time. I've always loved RPGs. I stream to put out some positive energy. I am a mental health doctor offline. The work and the world can make it hard to avoid the negative kind, so let's make this space a shared respite.

I've been gaming my entire life (I was a SNES kid); many beloved JRPGs pave the road of that journey. Story, strategy, worldbuilding, music, and character growth are what I most appreciate in games. Recently, when live, I've been playing RPGs. - Xenoblade Chronicles 2- current! first play - DELTARUNE- Ch.1-5 - most recently completed! miscellaneous games I've played on-stream include: - Warhammer 40: Darktide (I am on my 4th playthrough of Rogue Trader... help) - Slay the Spire 2, FTL, Hades, Fortnite, Marbles, ... Completed on Stream: - Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - Xenoblade Chronicles X - Outer Wilds EotE DLC (PC) - Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes - Fire Emblem Engage - Tales of Xillia- (Jude) My pantheon of RPGs that have most shaped my being include: - Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals (SNES) - Seiken Densetsu 3 (ie, Trials of Mana/SNES) - Super Mario RPG (SNES) - Breath of Fire 3 (PS1) - Shining Force 2 (Genesis) - Fire Emblem 7 (GBA) - Final Fantasy's 6-10 + 14 - Trails in the Sky + all Trails - Persona 3 4, 5 .... there are probably more. What about you?

1) **Be kind. No bullying - respect others.** 2) 18+ chat - I may use vulgar and/or lewd language, though I try not to do so excessively (quality, not quantity). I don't really mind what type of language you use, provided it meets the criteria above: respecting others. Any language contrary to this is not welcome. 3) Please ask before giving tips or hints. I don't mind to struggle some, but I am not afraid to ask for help or seek answers if overly frustrated/stuck. 4) No story spoilers (especially for first playthroughs). Please avoid specific spoilers at OTHER games' stories as well ( **I am constantly trying to get my friends to play the games I have loved all my life. Let's work together on this by not spoiling any of their stories!!!** 5) Take care of yourself. You are encouraged to remind me to do the same. 6) Be safe. 7) No bigotry or hate speech.

**September 12th or 13th .. by/around 2p CST)** XBC2! Chapter 7 I work full-time in medical/mental health and my schedule changes every week, so I stream when I have the time and energy; sometimes I am low on both. I do the best I can to stream regularly, but this is ultimately a place to unwind. It means a lot that we can share any amount of time here. If you enjoy the vibe, feel free to follow. On the days I do go live, I tend to rally myself and hit the button around 2pm Central time (CST).

Whatever comes after Trails Beyond the Horizon Kindness. Just more of it overall.
