About John

Hi! I'm John, and I'm a pretty new GM. I thoroughly enjoy creating stories and running games, and aim to get better after every session. I am 24 and from the southeast US, obsessed with my cat Lucifer, and enjoy reading, storytelling, and music.

My favorite books are

Favorite books is a tough one, as I've just started reading again fairly recently. As a kid my answer would've been Percy Jackson, no question, but recently the Stormlight Archive series, Dungeon Crawler Carl series, and He Who Fights the Monsters series have been bouncing from my #1 spot.

How John runs games

I enjoy both roleplaying and combat, and my games will be fairly balanced with the two. Rule of Cool is very present within my games.

When it comes to voices

Listen I'm not gonna lie and say I'm fantastic with voices, although I've gotten pretty good with an Irish accent. I will actively be practicing new voices, trying my best to bring them to my table.

John's ideal table

My ideal table is balanced between heartwrenching roleplay and good, well timed jokes. I love when players or myself get really into our characters, but if we're not also having fun with it, what's the point?

I think metagaming...

Metagaming is a mistake a lot of players make without even realizing it. It's definitely something that needs to be addressed, but people can easily overcome it and become better players from their experience.
