Professional Game Master

About me

I have been a Game Master and player of RPGs for over 25 years now. My educational and professional background is in history, political science, English literature and teaching. I started with 2nd edition AD&D and first edition of Vampire: the Masquerade, quickly discovered GURPS and RIFTS, and ran many a 3.5 and Pathfinder campaign. Recently I have been running a lot of 5th edition of D&D, the new Vampire: the Masquerade edition, Blades in the Dark, Godbound, and the Cypher System. I focus a lot on player engagement and fun, and like to run a game that has a mix of everything. I like to give players agency and ability to really impact the game world and make a difference. I love to host games because I think I bring a lot of energy, excitement and experience to the table!

GM style

I love roleplaying, improvisation, action-oriented exciting combat, and coming up with plots and reacting to player decisions. I'd like to think that my voices are at least entertaining, and my NPCs are memorable. I prefer running faster paced games, with a lot of opportunities for the players to make an impact on the world and become movers and shakers. I always run a Session Zero and actively use safety tools in my games to ensure maximum comfort and fun.
