About me
⏰My Timezone is CET/CEST (Brussel-Europe)⏰. And yes I do sleep at night.😂 If you want to know who Tom is and what he brings to the table in regards to his Storytelling style, have look below or send a personal message via Startplaying Games or visit The Gaming Peeples Discord channel via this link: https://discord.gg/nEGMMRmtNz ☀️ ABOUT STORYTELLER TOM ☀️ 42y-He/Him🍟 Greetings and Salutations, I'm Tom from the sunny country of Belgium (Antwerp) where I live with my girlfriend and our 2 cats Louis & Minnie. Besides living a 'normal life', I'm a Storyteller with a passion for over 27 years of non stop telling tales. I love playing in roleplay Heavy, sandbox orientated campaigns, with focus on player character development, who make the world their own. While interacting with interesting and engaging NPC's with their own unique stories and silly voices. Plus I love adding lot's of improv and unexpected solutions to many obstacles our players face during our stories. In 2021 during the Pandemic, I landed in a burnout, due to my work taking over my life. Running over 60 to 70 hours per week for a job with no benefits nor any thanks given. So I decided that in May 2022, that all would change and I would build upon my passion for storytelling. This with my own brand The Gaming Peeples.
