Other Notes: I chose to use this as a greeting. Hey there Eternians. I'm sure you've heard of me one way or another. I'm in need of an rp fix, so I'm here to offer my services at running your dungeons and events. There's not really any format I'm afraid to run but I definitely am not skilled at Eternia DMing(I've only run 2 over the entire lifespan of the Eternia series). So bear with me on that and I'll try to give you the best events I can.
Are you currently running events, and if so, are you considering player-requested events?: Player-requested are greatly appreciated.

Character: Eris Vorso
Which Event: Valley of Shadows
Responsiveness (Were their narrations posted within a reasonable time-frame and were they quick to respond?): Holy hell, I could not believe how fast the responses were! Not only were they fast but they were incredibly reactive. Everything the players said was taken into account and responded to in turn and the use of both narrates and EC interactions was phenomenal. The event may have gone for a little over six hours because there was so much meat to it, but each response took around five minutes and this was with the DM bouncing between PCs that had been separated! Honestly incredible. (10/10)
Balance (How entertaining were the battles, and any obstacles/traps?): The balance was very good, I've never encountered a DM that does so many of their obstacles through critical decisions and through potential traps, but it made it all the more immersive. That and the massive battle at the end was the perfect amount of heart-pounding danger where you think everyone is going to fall but we just barely scraped by. This event and how the obstacles were handled were beyond unique and done in such an incredibly immersive way and it made the rewards feel that much more worth the cost and trials. (10/10)
Storytelling (Did it feel like an adventure, did the content of the narrations meet your expectations?): I just need to start with this section by stating if you want an event that is incredibly story focused, takes every bit of information you give, and expands upon it, and doesn't just feel like some dungeon run, get this DM. I have never felt so invested in an event before, even when it was just narrated and there were no battles my heart was POUNDING! Everything was incredibly described, reactions from the ECs and the environment were based on the characters and we could make SO many choices.
One thing that really stood out to me was whenever we made a critical choice at the end of the narrate it would state our decision, like our very first decision was [You have taken Route 2! Protect the Stranger!] The alone was proof of exactly how much time and dedication went into the setup of this event to the point the DM had numerous different options and endings prepared based on the player's reactions to the story. I was blown away by the storytelling, blown away by the reactiveness, and especially blown away by the detail that went into these reward items. (1000/10)
Fairness (Were the punishments justified and earned, was the risk to reward ratio good?): Everything was very fair, we might not have faced many battles but we were faced with many critical decisions through storytelling, our morals were tested, or beliefs threatened, and even our opinions of each other altered. I believe the event was very fair between the choices made, the rolls that had to be done for different tasks, and the battle at the end. My single critique is maybe make the mass random mobs a little beefier next time so we don't blow through the completely blow through them. Or add more of them. (9/10)
Overall:
If you want a creative DM who pays attention to detail and priorities a good story over throwing fights at you and just doing dungeon runs, this is the DM you want to get. I have never been so thoroughly impressed. Again, this event went on for six to seven hours and I was captivated through every single step of it. This DM has an amazing imagination and I definitely recommend letting him take the reigns on your story because I know I sure never expected the ending to this event, but holy hell, I could have never come up with something this incredible.
