How Asher F runs games
My strongest points are my worldbuilding and roleplaying (because of my background in writing and theater), but I am always down for a good combat. Some of my favorite things to do in games include exploring player backstories, forging unforgettable relationships between characters at the table, and constructing unique roleplay scenarios that highlight what makes your character special. I mostly play DnD 5e, but I am starting to pick up Call of Cthulhu and Pathfinder 2e. My games tend to lean toward dark fantasy, cosmic horror, or cozy fantasy.
Featured Prompts
I deal with rules issues by...
going with what seems most appropriate for the game's story and themes.
My favorite trope is...
affably evil. I love when villains are not pure brutes but instead come across as charming or convincing--even in their own twisted way. This doesn't mean they cannot be evil, no. I just love it when they are rather sociable to contrast with their evil deeds.
