About me
I go by the Gentle GM. Even in the midst of death-defying adventure or bone-chilling horror, I aim to be a warm and welcoming game master. I've run games for children players, seniors, and all ages in between. I try to suffuse hope, respect, and warmth into every session I run. I offer: 🏳️🌈 A welcoming, inclusive play style 🔥 Player-focused flair and action 🧭 Open-ended storytelling 🎭 Action, horror, awe, and comedy in-game ⚖️ Settings with themes of justice and transformation 📆 Over a decade of game mastering experience 🖋️ Know-how with dozens of systems At thirteen, two friends and I huddled around the Dungeons & Dragons 3e starter set, laughing at a natural 20 to breakdown a door with the fighter's head. In high school, I found the Call of Cthulhu rulebook and made investigators with friends, still clueless how to actually play. In 2014 with the launch of D&D 5e and Call of Cthulhu 7e, I committed to running these games and an old love sparked brilliantly to life! I've since taught dozens their first TTRPG! I'm also an inveterate dabbler in TTRPGs. If you're curious if I run a particular game, just ask! Images are used with permission from James' RPG Art, https://jamesrpgart.com.

Creating your character
Character creation is part of play. Jump in, select your preferred approaches, and check your skills. Gear is determined as you need it. This game really delivers on the one shot promise, delivering multi-scene action, investigation, and high-tech hijinks!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need 1) a Discord profile, 2) a mic and headphones (webcam is welcome, but not required). Players can use physical dice if they prefer. Foundry offers dice, rules, and character sheet integration. Players will also be sent the PDF character sheet which provides rules summary and player guidance.
What Caleb | The Gentle GM brings to the table
I have over ten years of TTRPG GMing experience and have a lot of appreciation for the cyberpunk genre. (My favorite video game is the immersive sim RPG Deus Ex.) Meanwhile, Foundry offers an all-in-one player solution for playing the game itself that includes character sheets, resource tracking, and dice rolling.

How Caleb | The Gentle GM creates a safe table
I always use the X Card at my tables as well as related integrated safety tools in Foundry. I've run this adventure before and while violence is definitely part of the game, threats can be catered to avoid sensitive topics.
