About me
30+ years of running various TTRPGs. I am trans/non-binary and autistic and run games that are both LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent friendly. My day job is teaching and I love teaching new players to enjoy roleplaying!
GM Style
I tend to focus on roleplaying, characterization, and exploration over combat, but we always chat about player expectations and wants during session 0. At the end of the day, I'm here for you!

Apheline is a fantastic GM with a fun and engaging style! We’re still early in our campaign, but they’ve already established a great dynamic within the group. Their storytelling adds depth, tension, and just the right amount of humour, making every post fun. They’re also incredibly adaptable, making sure everyone’s having a good time. I’m excited to see where the story goes!"
I have truly enjoyed playing with Apheline as Game Master. Play-by-post games are difficult to keep moving, but she consistently responds quickly to player's posts, encourages creative ideas, and promotes a fun and positive game environment. She is also a talented writer, which makes reading her descriptions and interacting with her NPCs a real pleasure.
Apheline is a fantastic, inclusive, and collaborative GM. We've got a crew of pretty avid RPers in our pbp, and even the most off-the-wall ideas are incorporated into a great time. NPCs are vivid and memorable, encounters are fun and original, and Apheline's gorgeous writing is the cherry on top. If you want a GM who is invested in player experience, knowledgeable about the game, and inclusive of players of all experience and background, they're is a great choice. Really can't recommend highly enough as a GM.
