About me
I have played for a total of 9 years and professionally DM for 4 years. With a mix of 5e, 4e, Pathfinder, Starfinder, Cthulhu, and Heroes Unlimited, all of them are great, fun games (some having more quirks than others.) My goals for a campaign are not to kill characters off, but push each person's immersion to their highest peak and enjoyment. I am a Storyteller. Painting a story around your chosen characters for a voted theme is my specialty. I use an equal amount of roleplay and creative puzzles, with a bit of combat every session. And I look forward to seeing how each group finishes an Arc, for it is rewarding to see the differences in each groups playthrough.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
A good mic, sheets grabbed and ready, and reliability to stick for the full one shot. one shots of the game will happen on repeat, so coming back to play again next week with the same exact crew is possible, but also allows the game to be a couple times here and there a pickup game.

How Anstle creates a safe table
Roll 20 will be the VTT looking over maps, combat, and moving tokens. There will be a light debriefing without spoilers, but anyone who is eager for games like call of cuthulu or world of darkness dealing with cryptids and the dark arts will have a better understanding of the style of game this is.
