Stars and Wishes are used to reflect and discuss feedback in a positive way. Stars are used for things that participants enjoyed in the game. Wishes are things that participants would like to see in the future. Both players and the GM can express their stars and wishes to make the game better.

X, N, and O Cards are check-in tools. X-Cards are used to indicate that a participant is uncomfortable with the current content, often resulting in a change, rewind, or skip of the aforementioned content. N-Cards can be used by participants if they feel content is heading towards an X card, often resulting in a change or a “fade to back”. O-Cards are used to check-in on the group and ensure that everyone is comfortable continuing with the content.

I'm an Ennie-nominated writer and podcaster who has contributed to Sons of Kryos, The Sixth Ring - a Trophy Podcast and Daydreaming about Dragons. I GM and play regularly on the Actual Play twitch-stream if you'd like to see my play-style first-hand.

I regularly write about gaming on my blog, Githyanki Diaspora.

Ask me about my GM+2 games, a perfect gift for the gaming buddy you haven't rolled dice with in years, taking inspiration from Elric and Moonglum as well as Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser or even True Detective.

Please contact me and let's book a game.
