About me
British-born writer, comedian and podcaster living and working in Los Angeles. Castmember of The Game of Rassilon: A Doctor Who Roleplaying Game Podcast (GM seasons 1-3, PC seasons 4-5) and Good Chaotic. DM'd the four-episode YouTube 5e series Hot Quest for FilmJoy. In 2023, I helped to preserve the 2003 Red Dwarf Roleplaying Game after nearly 15 years being out of print. I can also run this system if interested! I'm a big lover of RPGs old and new! If there's a system you want to play that I don't have listed, please let me know!
GM Style
I favor the theater of the mind, with a heavy emphasis on improvisation, storytelling, and character development. I favor a puzzle/adventure approach where possible - if I've done my job properly, playing a campaign I'm running should feel like a cross between exploring a world, unraveling a narrative, and playing a LucasArts adventure game from the 90s. I care very deeply about making sure players at the table feel safe, feel that they are listened to, and that they're having a good time. I do a lot of character voices - I'm originally from the UK, so expect a lot of regional British accents.
