About me
I’m the Norse GM—also known as Jórekr or JK—a lifelong storyteller from the wild and myth-steeped lands of Scandinavia. I grew up surrounded by long winters, old forests, and the quiet magic of northern folklore, and I strive to bring that same sense of wonder and depth into every game I run. Roleplaying games have been my creative heartbeat for over a decade, offering a space to tell stories, share laughs, and explore the unknown together. I’ve run dozens of adventures and campaigns for players from all walks of life, and I’m passionate about welcoming newcomers just as much as challenging seasoned veterans. Outside the virtual table, I’m a laid-back, thoughtful presence—always happy to chat, help with character ideas, or just nerd out over game mechanics and lore. I'm usually available for games on weekday afternoons and evenings (CET/CEST). Feel free to reach out if you want to chat before joining the table—I'm always happy to talk games!
