About me
Yearning for adventure and immersive storytelling? Then I'm your GM! 8"2, 123-year-old, educated greenskin with a strong British accent. Best Ork GM on the internet, 8 years running! I have a background in theatre and wargames, so expect lots of over the top roleplay and lots of intense combat! I LOVE running games, and I've been teaching people how to play TTRPG's for close to a decade, as I believe a good first experience is crucial to hook people into the space, so I place enormous emphasis on open communication and having a good time above all else. Of course, this means new players are more than welcome at all my games! I run low-fantasy, gritty adventures and campaigns, often in original homebrew settings. I think a low fantasy setting makes the magic feel weird and truly special, while a grittier world adds more tension and drama, and who would not want that! I am flexible, adapt to my player's needs and put great effort in my games. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or hop in the discord! (Link below) https://discord.gg/TWDfVUBeqR

How RollingDeadly creates a safe table
Expectations and limitations are discussed during onboarding with each individual player and established during session 0. I regularly check up on players, as it’s my job to make sure everyone is having the best possible time. Roleplay and storytelling are always at the forefront of my campaigns, so don't stress about knowing the rules. If you know how to roll dice, that's good enough! At the end of every hour, there is a 5-minute break so everyone can fetch a drink and hit the bathroom. Communication is key, in and out of gameplay.
