About Akoot

Hiya, I'm Akoot. I have over a decade of experience in running tabletop roleplaying games (RPGs) online, including Pathfinder 1e/2e, D&D, Call of Cthulhu, Shadowrun, Stars Without Number and Mothership. I've recently celebrated my two year anniversary of joining Startplaying and running my first game, I now have 3 groups, two of which who joined me near the start of my journey and are both well into their second campaigns. The fact they continue to choose to stick with me is incredibly encouraging and I'm looking forward to running more games. I offer a unique and immersive gaming experience tailored to your interests and preferences. Whether you prefer classic high fantasy, sci-fi adventures, or anything in between, I am here to bring your story to life and make sure you have an unforgettable gaming experience where you are left feeling like your character was able to make real choices, for which you were either justifiably rewarded or faced the consequences for. I love when players tap into their creativity and really get into their characters, so if you're a new or experienced player, get in touch and I'll be happy to adventure with you and together craft the best roleplaying experience possible.

I got started GMing...

My friends had an interest in playing, but nobody was willing to take the plunge and actually run the games. So it fell on me to take the lead and start GMing. I don't regret it.

My favorite system of all Time is

Pathfinder 2e

People are always surprised when I tell them

Hyenas are more closely related to cats than dogs.

How Akoot runs games

My GMing style is to be adaptable and focused on creating a collaborative and engaging atmosphere where players can truly unleash their creativity and imagination. That doesn't mean I ignore the rules of the game, infact I prefer to stick to the rules to ensure consistency and avoid undermining player choices, though I am able to compromise if required. From character creation to worldbuilding, combat to social interactions, I am here to provide a seamless and enjoyable gaming experience that leaves you feeling fulfilled and excited for the next adventure.

Rules are...

Important, though it does depend on the system. In more rules-heavy systems everyone makes their characters using the rules of the game, and the things that are agreed upon in session zero. To be loose with the rules after that point potentially undermines player choices and can ruin the experience.
