About me

Hello lovely people, my name is Rowan (none/they); I am a teacher, professional editor, and published author who's been running tabletop games since I was 11 years old. My bread and butter is superheroes, horror, and urban fantasy, but I have experience in a large variety of systems and genres. I prefer more narrative systems over things with a lot of crunch, and highly dramatic storytelling. My stories often center around opposing institutions, religions, governments, and corruption. If you are a friendly and generous roleplayer, want to have a GM that invests in your character and enjoy constructive chaos, then I think my table might just be for you.

Safety

How Rowan Graham creates a safe table

You will submit lines and veils via a private player survey, and will make a public master list available to all players before session 0. This campaign has content warning for many versions of real world prejudice. It is impossible to accurately have a story set in WWII without talking about these issues, but it is important to note that NOBODY at the table will be allowed to act in any prejudice way to another player or character, either as themselves or as theor character.
