About me

tl;dr If you want a game where tension simmers, choices have teeth, and your character might walk away scarred but not broken — then pull up a chair. Hello. My given name is Glen, but you may call me Thrakas. I am a tabletop role-playing and video game enjoyer, and burgeoning horror film connoisseur, and have far too many adorable cats. I have been a GM for about 25 years and have run most editions of Dungeons & Dragons and played in a wider variety of systems. When I'm not running games I'm... 📒Preparing for the next session. 📅Planning for the next game. 🎮Playing a video game (With friends, more likely than not): Deep Rock Galactic, Space Marine 2, Helldivers 2, and others. 🐈Spoiling my cats. I got started GMing... ✅ By necessity in a role-playing desert. My favorite books are... 📖 The Eisenhorn trilogy/omnibus.

Character creation

Creating your character

🔢 Show up with multiple character concepts, just in case it doesn’t vibe with the campaign or the group. 🎁 Most of character creation will be done on Demiplane. It can be linked to roll20 as soon as you are finished. 🤝 Pose your connection questions to other players about their characters to seed a bond. 𝐋𝑉 Level 1 📋 All options in the Daggerheart core book are fair game. 📊 Distribute standard Trait modifiers amongst Agility, Strength, Finesse, Instinct, Presence, and Knowledge. (+2, +1, +1, 0, 0, -1)

Safety

How Glen creates a safe table

• I request that you fill out an RPG Consent Checklist survey to establish lines and veils so that we may play together without making anyone more uncomfortable than they want. • A digital x card and button will be provided to redirect play away from a topic. • "Pause for a Moment" can always verbally be used if those cannot be accessed quickly enough. • If you take issue with anything, do not go silent. Communicate to me in any of the various ways provided.
