About me

Jamie is a 30 year veteran of tabletop roleplaying games, beginning as an 8 year old kid with D&D first edition before graduating through 2nd, 3rd and 3.5e before making the switch to his preferred system of Pathfinder and now Pathfinder2e. He has a focus on fun and values inclusivity and storytelling above all. You can find his published work on Drivethrurpg where he is a Pathfinder Infinite Master - "an invitation-only cadre of the most active and influential members of the Pathfinder and Starfinder Infinite community, whose work consistently sets the standard for quality and professionalism." When not playing make-believe, Jamie is either writing content, rock climbing, walking his two amazing dogs or eating pizza.


GM style

I really enjoy roleplaying in sessions and will always try to run with your ideas with good non-player characters, always making the space safe for players to express themselves. I improvise well both in tactics and characterization providing interesting combat and social encounters for you to navigate. I have a strong grasp of the rules but can play pretty fast and loose with them if it advances the story, if players are less experienced and always prioritize fun over sticking ardently to the rules. There is however always structure, and I tend to run mostly modules and adventure paths pretty faithfully, with my own twists and takes on them thrown in. I tend to prefer discord and roll20 as my virtual applications but am happy to fit in with the needs of the group.
