About the adventure
Focus: Foundry Presentations Modules Note: if you cannot afford the fee, reach out to me, rather than share knowledge than horde it. This seminar focuses on three Foundry VTT modules, possibly more, if time allows, to enhance your sessions' emotional impact and narrative clarity. These tools are system-agnostic and specifically selected to improve presentation, pacing, and dramatic delivery during non-combat scenes. As professional storytellers, you already know how vital those quiet, tense, or emotional beats are. This session is about giving you concrete, easy-to-implement tools that help you shape those moments with greater precision and cinematic flair. Foundry is a remarkably flexible VTT once you’re past the initial learning curve. After years of using it as my primary platform, I’ve found a set of modules that consistently support high-quality, immersive storytelling. This seminar is about sharing those tools, showing how to use them effectively, and helping you push your presentation to the next level.

About me
Hello, I am Matthew Pauze, and I have been a passionate Game Master since 1993. Throughout my years in the tabletop RPG and LARP communities, I have had the opportunity to run and participate in various systems. Currently, I reside in Canada with my family and partner. In 2019, with the rise of Covid-19, I shifted my focus to online platforms such as Discord and Roll20. I aim to introduce and highlight some of the lesser-known gems in the TTRPG community rather than just relying on popular systems like Dungeons and Dragons. In addition to my experience as a Game Master, I also have a strong passion for RPG design. I love exploring new and innovative ways to bring stories to life and create unique and memorable gaming experiences for my players. I am particularly interested in horror settings, as I find something extraordinary about creating an atmosphere of suspense and fear around the table. Another aspect of my work that I take great pride in is my ability to tailor my storytelling style to the needs and preferences of my player troupe. I understand that every group is unique and that I must adapt my approach to ensure everyone has a great time as a group. Whether adjusting the pace, adding more humor, or focusing on a particular story aspect, I always strive to create the ideal experience for my player's troupe. Please note that I do not generally offer my services for children's events. If I cannot accommodate a client, I will help get them in contact with someone who can. Note: Nazis, racists, sexists, transphobes, homophobes, and other bigots are explicitly prohibited from playing, reading, watching, or enjoying my games. In fact, I'd rather you avoided my games altogether. If you have to ask whether this statement is about you, it is.
