About me
Hallooooo out there! I've run everything from one-shots to multi-year campaigns and have been playing TTRPGs as a player and GM for longer than I've used computers (carbon dating myself there haha). I've been running professional games for about a year now and welcome new and old players at my table. I love creating my own homebrew campaigns from scratch, but have run official modules in a variety of systems including D&D 5E, Call of Cthulhu, Starfinder, Blades in the Dark and more! I'm a very player-oriented, story-driven GM who loves drawing in character backstories and having players influence the world around them for good or ill. I'm just as happy running epic World Raid boss fights and roleplaying character moments. I mostly use Foundry VTT, but started IRL and with Roll20 with some dabbling in Fantasy Grounds as well. You may also encounter me in the wild as Mrs. Owl.
GM Style
I fell in love with D&D through my first game as a player, fighting a giant spider monster inspired by Japanese folklore that hunted the party through a twisting canyon. I love bringing that Epic World Raids-type of combat a la World of Warcraft to the table. While trash mobs have their place, I love crafting epic monsters that keep players on their toes. Some encounters may be a surprise where you have to think on your feet while others will allow for careful planning. Whether you have to withstand a siege, ambush the enemy or beard the dragon in its lair, I love providing a wide variety of combat types to give different classes their chance to shine. One of the things I love most about being a GM is weaving the story with my players, using funny voices and player backstories to create moments where everyone can shine at the table. From epic battles against formidable foes to heartfelt moments of character growth, every game is tailored to your interests, no matter whether it's a module, one shot or homebrew campaign. Rules are important, but only to facilitate fun. RAW is a foundation, but I find that rule of cool lets you really express your creativity and problem solving. If you can think of it, I'm more than happy to let you try it out. Finally, I quite enjoy silly voices, storytelling and entertaining, so I'm here to make sure every encounter, whether with a monster or an NPC, is memorable. So if a GM dedicated to providing a tailored experience, whether that's epic fights or epic stories or something in between, I'm the GM for you!
