About me

Hello, my name is Pixels and I'm thrilled to provide a wonderful gaming experience for you. I've been gm-ing for nearly a decade, and am versed in a number of systems including Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition, Pathfinder 1st and 2nd editions, Starfinder 1st edition, Open Legend, Call of Cthulhu, Monster of the Week and Shadowrun. I tend to be a Rule of Cool gm, using Rules as Written as a base to allow for player creativity and problem solving. Not everything is allowed, but there's often a way to bend a rule to make for an amazing outcome. I look forward to telling a story with you!

Character creation

Creating your character

It will happen during session 0, with stats decided by a set array. You'll start with 3 levels in one class, 3 levels in another. You can use any wotc printed book, but ask about homebrew.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You'll need accounts on discord and roll20, and should have discord downloaded. You'll be invited to a discord server upon joining.

What 8bitpixelheart brings to the table

I use ambient music and do my best to do character voices. I often do rule of cool, allowing players to do unique things through special boons, powers, or magic items.

Safety

How 8bitpixelheart creates a safe table

We use digital X cards via the roll20 app, as well as going over possible lines and veils during session 0. We have breaks and an open door policy, so don't worry if you need to get up and go for any reason.
