About me

I'm Mickey, a game master/game designer with a love of collaboration and storytelling. I started GMing in 2018 and since then, I've run many different systems. I love exploring new ones to grow my skills as a GM. I tend to run rules-light games that have narrativist mechanics to tell bespoke stories. I love RPGs and can't wait to share them with you!

Character creation

Creating your character

Just think of a concept for your character - What's your role in your community? - What are you particularly good at? - What are some personality traits, etc? We'll make characters in the first session, it's that quick!

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You'll need a Discord account and an email with which you can access Google Slides for our shared gaming space. We'll use a dice-bot in Discord, but feel free to use physical dice if you have them. Once the game is "Active", I will share links to my gaming Discord server and the access link to the Slides.

What Mickey brings to the table

🍃 An evocative experience using character acting and sensory descriptions 📑 A simple and artistic digital play space via Google Slides that is less finicky than many Virtual Table Tops (VTTs) 🔍 Meaningful choices so that your characters feel like impactful participants in a living world 📹 A energetic directorial GM style that shares the spotlight so your character have both the thrilling stunts and heartwarming moments they deserve

Homebrew rules

2400 is a super light RPG, but I like to give it a bit more structure. I add spaces on the character sheets to mark Conditions, Equipment, and Relationships so that these details can better inform our story.
