About Graeme Henson

I've been gaming with tabletop RPGs for over 25+ years and was reading all the classics before I knew anybody else that played. I'm into fantasy, sci-fi, horror, post-apocalyptic, westerns, or if something could combine all of those into a single RPG I'd go for that too (though universal systems are a bit iffy sometimes). I like a mix of improv and tactical combat RPGs, I want to be surprised just as much as the players and don't like running games on rails. I've been with the same regular group of players now for most of that time with occasional excursions into other groups just to see how well other groups and game systems work.

How Graeme Henson runs games

I like working together with players to collaborate on a shared world, I don't want to know how things turn out and want to be surprised along with the rest of the players. I want to work with players who are willing to do crazy, unexpected things that aren't accounted for in the book and just making GM rulings on the fly. If I run a published adventure, it's there as a set of guidelines, but I don't mind departing from convention and going off in ways that the books don't prepare for. Or I'm more likely to pick and choose little bits and pieces here and there and just throw it all together into a big mashed up adventure.
