About Howard/Badger

I’m a GM with over 30 happy years of running inclusive, character-driven stories. I live on a small island where I keep sheep and spin and weave, and I enjoy bringing that knowledge of traditional skills and rural life into games. I’m queer, disabled and know the importance of role-playing games as a way to explore different ways as being. I look forward to helping you build a character you love, a world you believe in and adventures you’ll never forget.

How Howard/Badger runs games

My players describe my style as: “Chaotic soap opera.” I find details like the weather and knowing your character’s birthday help to build immersion as much as the magic system or political history of a setting. I enjoy looking at a system’s rules as a tool for expressing creativity but also as a way of sparking it. What would a spell like Create Food and Water do to a society? How can a city run safely when Fireball exists? I love looking for ways to imagine what it’s like to inhabit a world like that, and to invite the players to step inside.
