About me
Hi, I am Tom Murr and you are about to be enchanted to play a game with me. RPGS are a big part of my life for round about 2 decades by this point. For a very long time I ran games at the kitchen table and then found people online who shared my interest in games aside of the big fantasy ones. There is a chance, that you already have encountered me. I have been on several streams (i.e. Onyx Path) and in two podcast mini campaings (Red Moon Roleplaying). Sometimes you can find me on online conventions and in written form on DriveThru with some Vaesen community content. Some examples of my streams can be found on my not to active youtube channel further below. My favourite genre is faerie tale / folk horror. It can be the perfect blend of beauty/weird/scary, which I love (Changeling The Lost, Vaesen, Solemn Vale). But I also venture into other horror stories like other Chronicles of Darkness lines. Dark and weird fantasy like Heart the City beneath and Spire the City must fall. Some comedy like Paranoia or They Came from ... There is always a new game that I am learning and trying. Should you prefere storytelling to numbers crunching and are fine to go rules light, we might have a great time together. We will be both fans of your character, you by giving them a backstory and bringing them to life and I by challenging them and weaving a story avout them.
