About me
Role playing games are tremendously fun, to play, to watch, and as I am still discovering, to run. I wish that I had started playing earlier, but it can be an overwhelming hobby to try to get into by yourself. My goal is to build games that are welcoming to new players and that experienced players can still have a good time with, and to foster a welcoming space. RPGs are one of those things that I do think everyone should try at some point. I look forward to hearing from you!

How Gretta creates a safe table
I mostly play with lines and veils with room for the Luxton technique during play. In plainer English, there are things that make me uncomfortable in play. I don't like viscerally gory scenes or discussing sexual encounters in the game. I draw a line for the gore, violence happens in RPGs, but it is not realistic or particularly gory. And any sexual encounters happen behind a veil, we do not see them, and we do not discuss anything in detail. We just know something happened. The Luxton technique is where, if we encounter something that makes you uncomfortable, we pause for a moment and you tell me what needs to change for you to be comfortable again, and it changes. *Content Warning Details* There will be setting typical alcohol use and violence. The children are suffering mild emotional neglect, they are physically fine. The party will quickly be encouraged to resolve the kidnapping of a hostage. Unless the party makes some very strong choices there will be one small, local bombing.
