About me

Hello and welcome. I'm Ani, a let's player, livestreamer, and TTRPG enthusiast from India. I found out about TTRPGs being a thing in my early twenties, and got into the hobby soon after. I've since played many games across many systems. TTRPGs are not yet popular in India, so I’ve only ever played online, never offline. I started GMing in 2017 and I've since run many oneshots and campaigns (my longest being a Monster of the Week campaign set in Ancient Egypt that lasted over 2 years). My preferred type of games are campaigns, as I really enjoy seeing character development of the PCs over multiple sessions. Narrative-focused collaborative storytelling is my jam, and I prefer roleplay to rollplay. Here's my Youtube channel where I mostly stream videogames, but there’s also a few Actual Plays of some of the TTRPGs I’ve ran: https://www.youtube.com/Anistuffs

GM Style

📖 Narrative-focused and Story-driven 🎥 Cinematic Experiences 🗺 Imaginative Worldbuilding 🤝 Collaborative Storytelling 😎 Rule of Cool I prefer a roleplay-heavy cinematic experience from TTRPGs, and that is exactly what I aim to deliver as a GM. Campaigns with collaborative storytelling and deep character development are always the central focus in my games. I use theatre of the mind, with reference images to set the scene and mood. I will weave your character's backstory and goals into the narrative, I will hype about your characters doing cool things, and I will challenge them over the course of the campaign to have an awesome narrative arc that will stay with all of us long after the game concludes. I strongly emphasise 'play to find out' and I believe player agency is sacred. I aim to engross the players in the story and the world, so metagaming has no place in my games. Lastly, an awesome narrative will always triumph over rules and mechanics. Inclusivity and player enjoyment is always the focus on my table. So join me as we embark on this epic quest together.
