About me

I started playing TTRPGs in 2020 and fell in love with it instantly. Like most people, my first game was Dungeons and Dragons. Afterwards, I expanded to other TTRPG products. Currently, I am running D&D, Call of Cthulhu, Runequest and Pathfinder sessions.

GM Style

I am a late comer when related to TTRPGs because I only started playing at the start of COVID 19 pandemic. Since then, I never look back. I played and run different genres and types of gaming and found that each game can be enjoyable in it's own way. I love to socialize and create interactive stories out of game sessions. I do love provision of different characters with complex motivations and number crunching does not worry me either. My games tend to focus more on how a player role play a character than numbers on the character sheet. I can adapt to each group's preference on technology, game style and narrative.

Michael was very friendly and extremely well-versed in the Call of Cthulhu ruleset. He took the time to explain everything to those of us new to the game.
