About me
Hello there! Not Obi-wan, but Leods, your humble narrator (if you want me to be). I am cis, bisexual, and fully respectful of all identities. I am a 21 year old argentinian guy, about as nerd and geek as you can get and lover of basically every type of fantasy (and ~70% of sci-fi). I have years of experience as a DM, both for PbP and synchronous campaigns. I love writing, reading, playing video games and sometimes playing some music. But most importantly, I love game design and ttrpgs!so I genuinely believe I can be a good DM for you

Safety
How Leods creates a safe table
I will personally ask each player about their consent list, lines and veils and anything they want to bring up during the first week/session 0. After that, the players are always allowed to take breaks without judgement, and text me about anything that might be bothering them or they might want to see changed. X, N and O can be handled as reactions to messages, or texted to me privately. Bleed will be handled outside the game, with private conversations to see if some changes are needed to ensure everyone can still feel comfortable. Debriefing and proper warnings will be given before and after intense scenes, as necessary. Breaks before and after intense moments will also be given, with private aftercare where I will ensure everyone is still on board and okay with the darker elements and the eldritch horror as they come up
