About me

I run my games fast, loose, and by the seat my pants! I focus less on Rules As Written and more on MY cardinal rule: what would make this a great story? (Bonus points if the character suffers and the player screams in joy!) I am a second-generation GM, and I love the social element in roleplaying. I try not to plan far in advance, but let the players expand the story and world with me!

GM Style

Favorite question is: how can I make this hurt? I tend toward darker tones, but I can never say no to a great laugh! And, if I offer your character a deal, only take it if you're up from some real shenanigans---there are fates far worse than death!

Sometimes it's "what you can talk the GM into!" and with Brent, if you have some backstory on your character and you believe your character could do "X" he will usually find a way to get you there. He will also help you create the character you really want to play, even if you have to tweak him/her after a session or two. Brent has a great imagination and always makes sure everyone is included and has a fun time.

Incredibly responsive, especially for younger, first time players. Great world building, making sure the players are a part of it and let their voices be heard.
