About me
Hello, I'm Caestus. I've been playing roleplaying games ever since I was old enough to do so. I have now reached game number 94 on my quest to play or run 100 different rpgs. I'm a big fan of science fiction and fantasy. I enjoy writing and telling stories, so gamemastering was a natural progression for me. I've been running games for friends and family for years. While I feel that telling a good story is a key part of being a good gamemaster, more important than the story is making sure all the players at the table have a good time; I consider that the chief duty of any gamemaster. I hope to run a wide variety of games here, especially less common games, and I hope you enjoy playing RPGs with me.
GM Style
I like most aspects of roleplaying games but roleplaying and story development are my particular focuses. I don't ignore rules or neglect combat by any stretch of the imagination, but I believe player fun comes first, then story. I try to always accompany my virtual tabletops with images, music and sound effects to immerse the players.

We played Lancer, which has many different enemies and mechanics going on during combat. He is really good and handling many different things at once and is understanding if you make a mistake and want to fix it. Use of music in strategic moments and times were it would be funny (Danger Zone for example) kept me engaged with the game board and the other players. Highly recommend if you are new to Lancer.
Booked a game last minute. Most DM's would never run it last minute. Not only did Caestus run the game, they were a amazing story teller, ran a super fun session, had awesome intros and narratives and played the AI NPC so great I felt like I was in the opening scene of a SCIFI movie! I got more content done WITH character creation than in any previous 3 hour session and I play a LOT of rpg's. Will book again 100%! Do the same!
