About Captain Grae

Hey there! I’m Grae (they/them) your local hot and dramatic t-boy theater-kid turned DM. I’ve got lots of flair for storytelling, improv, and inclusivity. I’ve been running games for over a year building a community of malicious misfits. I love making thematic worlds with vivid combat encounters, and imaginative social interactions that both my players and I fall in love with. With me I’ll serve up: 🏳️‍🌈Queer, POC, neurodivergent, and disability celebration 💡Custom worlds, plots, and character backgrounds 😜Professional Level improv and NPC acting ‼️Silly, campy, sometimes spicy, energy in grounded gritty stories. 💚 Fresh-Baked Table Top, VTT, or doodle based visuals. Let’s build something awesome together. Come join an adventure or request one of your very own — the realms await! (P.S. All Thumbnails/ VTT maps/ and character art is made by me!)

I got started GMing...

being lured to the dark side by table snacks, the love of stories and improv, and the cute DM at my first table who proceeded to kill me in my first session.

When I'm not running games I'm...

How Captain Grae runs games

My DM style is all about storytelling, creativity, and making sure everyone at the table feels seen and included. I build rich, imaginative worlds—from spooky horrors to cozy forests to epic multi-realm quests—and shape the story around your characters. I love roleplay and finding moments to dive into the depths of your characters. Expect fun, depth, and a lot of heart. I love weaving personal character arcs into the big picture and keeping things flexible so everyone gets a chance to shine. Safety always comes first. I use tools like consent checklists, Session 0s, and check-ins to make sure everyone’s comfortable and having a good time. Come hang out and let’s tell some awesome stories together!

My favorite trope is...

My favorite trope is playing a silly little situation with wacky circumstances that randomly turns deep, emotionally impactful, and probably has a not so hidden socio-political background meaning.

Captain Grae's ideal table

Someone would match well with my tables if they see the listing as a starting place and welcome mat to a build our own world that can go wherever the fun takes us. My tables are playful, patient, emotional, and filled with community love.
