About me
Greetings friends and enemies! I'm GMJabberwocky, but you can call me Spencer/Jabber (he/him). As a full-time professional gamemaster, I'm dedicated to creating immersive experiences. My focus IS crafting exciting adventures and meeting new players and building an amazing community. I have a genuine passion for learning different systems and collecting stories along the way. I would love it if you would join me for a story we can tell together, I love roleplaying and working with the characters you craft to make a story that we will never forget. This will always be our game, and I will make it as welcoming and friendly as I can so that you have something wonderful to look forward to as much as I do. Please let me know if you are interested in any of my games and if you want to request a alternate time for the game! So if you don't have anymore questions...what kind of story are we going to tell today?

Safety
How GMJabberwocky creates a safe table
All of the CW in this game can be adjusted to better fit the group and what would make everyone comfortable. You can expect me to use the following safety tools. 0️⃣ Session Zero: Every player will get a one on one session to make characters, talk about themes you want to play about and express concerns about any of the content warnings. ❌Lines and Veils: During session zero I will take a list of anything you want to list as a line or veil and will reference this list while planning to make sure and respect these concerns. You are also welcome to update your lines and veils at anytime without concern. 🚪Open Door: Take a break anytime, with absolutely no judgement and come back anytime. 🤗Aftercare: At the end of the session you will have a chance to voice any concerns, I will also send a message checking if you enjoyed the session to give you an open line to communicate any concerns. ⭐Stars and Wishes: At the end of every arc we will take a moment to come up with things we liked about the story so far and things we would like to change in the next one. This gives me a chance to tweak our story to give you more of what you enjoy.
