About me
Welcome, Adventurers! I'm J.P., a lifelong tabletop RPG enthusiast with decades of experience as both player and GM. From the depths of D&D (2e–5e) to the intrigue of Vampire: The Masquerade, Cyberpunk, Pathfinder, and beyond, I bring passion, creativity, and a well-stocked GM toolbox to every session. Right now, my system of choice is Pathfinder 2e—a complex, rewarding game that shines with a mature and story-driven group. What You Can Expect My goal is simple: to craft immersive, cinematic adventures where players are the heroes of their own epic. I run games using Foundry VTT (fully hosted), with dynamic soundscapes via Syrinscape and Spotify, and a dedicated Discord for session comms and community. You'll find rich roleplay, tactical combat, character voices, and an ever-growing library of source material at the table. My GM Philosophy To me, great GMing isn’t about beating the players—it’s about watching them thrive. I design encounters that challenge minds and reward teamwork. Your group drives the story, and I’m here to bring it to life in vivid, memorable detail. I'm also a player myself, so I always welcome feedback and ideas to make each session better for everyone. A Community-Driven Table My games are inclusive, respectful, and welcoming to all. Whether you’re new or experienced, I aim to make every player feel comfortable and supported. I offer free tutorials for Foundry VTT, and I'm always available between sessions for questions, character help, or just a chat. My paid Discord server is active with players who share a deep love for storytelling and gaming. Important Notes My games often explore mature themes, contain strong language, and are designed for players 18+. I have a zero-tolerance policy for real-world hate or discrimination, though fictional settings may explore difficult topics. I tailor tone and content to suit the group and maintain an open-door policy for any concerns. Ready to Play? If you're looking for immersive worlds, complex characters, and a supportive group of fellow adventurers, I’d love to have you at my table. I currently have availability Saturday evenings for private games, with flexible options earlier in the week. Let’s tell a story worth remembering.

Creating your character
Character can happen prior to or during Session 0. If you make your character prior to the session, please do so in Pathbuilder (a free account is all that you really need) so we can easily import it into the game.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need a microphone, and a decent computer. Optional: a Pathfinder Nexus account (free) if you want to be able to read through my rule books, and a Pathbuilder account to create and map out your character.
What J.P. brings to the table
All necessary Pathfinder 2e source books, shared to my players, a dedicated Discord Server, Foundry VTT, in-game music and sound effects using Syrinscape and Spotify, graphic assets and modules for Foundry VTT from various Patreon supported contributors, custom character tokens and loads of character voices.

Safety
How J.P. creates a safe table
This is a mature game. While I do expect the players at our table to act like mature, responsible human beings, and kindness towards each other is desirable, some subject matter can be distressing to those lacking in emotional and/or intellectual resiliency. Alignment is up to the individual player, however inter-party backstabbing and/or combat is rarely, if ever, tolerated.
