About me

A little about me: I am a 37 year old Canadian house spouse. I am married with 4 kids soon, a cat that STILL doesn't understand gravity at all, and new second rescue cat. I am silly and fun-loving, but structured and a bit compulsive. I sometimes get so focused on something I'll forget other things, and need to be reminded. I am laid-back and tend to go by the seat of my pants, but I always keep things on track and consistent. I like to use a mix of Fantasy grounds and Discord, and have my own server that I manage for my games. I love overpowered characters, I feel like the more power the players have the more fun they can have, and the more options I have to throw at them. My personal favourite to play is Pathfinder with the Mythic rules and working towards a Deific character.

GM Style

If I had to say something for a style it would be something along the lines of I try to keep things moving as much as possible. I hate waiting on deliberation as a player and I try to minimize it as a GM. I put fun before rules when needed, but I stick to the rules as well as possible.

Atracious knows his stuff. I'm in two pathfinder games with him as GM I'm amazed at his in-depth knowledge of the pathfinder system, his patience in helping all the players through said pathfinder rules system; plus his knowledge of the Fantasy Grounds platform. Absolutely recommend.

He's very good at fostering a cooperative environment while giving his players the freedom to explore the character they've created.

Atrocious is a good GM for any level player. He takes time to explain (and walk through if needed) setting up the digital aspect so the players can concentrate on the important part- having fun playing. He is patient with game play for new players and works to make it fun.

A great DM for beginners and seasoned players, he runs a fast paced game and listens to what his players have to say and allows players to express what they have to say before jumping to some quick decision. I recommend, especially if the player is a beginner.
