About me
I've been playing TTRPGs for just over a decade and have been GMing them for nearly as long. I have learned a lot in that time but of course there is always room for growth and improvement. I pride myself on my adaptive approach, adjusting my style based on the system I am playing and the group I am with. I dabble in a bit of whatever I can get my hands on but I particularly enjoy games in sci-fi and horror settings and with an emphasis on exploration/investigation and tactical combat.
