About me
Salutations and hello! I was raised by game designers and role players, so I've been playing and running role-playing games for most of my life and am comfortable working with basically any rule system. I work hard to populate my campaigns with nuanced NPCs that buck the ally/enemy dichotomy, and combat is often avoidable in my games; when it isn't there's a very good reason why not. I also have a lot of experience in improvisation and love incorporating player suggestions and choices seamlessly into established lore. Two of the most memorable NPCs from my ongoing in-person campaign started as "enemies" that a player decided on a whim not to kill. I have a personal preference for the modern wave of rules-lite systems, in particular Mork Borg and Troika!, and am working on my own tri-stat system as well [which will definitely be playtested at some point soon!], but the majority of my experience is in running Dungeons & Dragons 3.5e and Pathfinder. My preferred genre to work in is grimbright, and my favorite stories to tell involve both confrontation with cosmic horror and triumph over that horror through cosmic heroism and cleverness. I'm happy to develop a custom campaign with your group, or run a pre-made module or campaign. Thanks for reading, I look forward to gaming with you!
GM Style
I love storytelling, and tend to prefer narrative over hard tactics, but I am flexible above anything else. At the end of the day, my view is that everything done in a TTRPG should ultimately be in service of the goal of having fun together, and so I'm happy to curate whatever game experience you want.

Game Master Reviews (1)
They are an absolutely stand-up individual, extremely creative and always keen on listening to the player, particularly when it comes to helping flesh out character stories or even develop personal homebrews. Drawing from my personal experiences with them, I was able to get homebrews that I was working on for months off the ground thanks to their aid, truly an overall amazing dm and person.
