About Casey

Hi there, I'm Casey. If you enjoy mystery, a little horror, and a focus on roleplay and engagement, one of my games might be for you. I've been involved in this awesome hobby since the early nineties and have yet to grow tired of it. In that time, I've moved away from crunchy, tactical games to character focused stories, because for me, it's best when everyone can collaborate and 'play to see what happens.' Whether it's a long running game, like our 4.5 year Vampire campaign that spanned centuries, taking players from freshly embraced noobs to infamous elders, or a one-shot of Call of Cthulhu designed to introduce new players to the game, your input as players is what keeps things interesting and engaging for everyone. And connecting with the wide and diverse players that have joined my games makes it all that much better! 🎲 If you see a game that interests you, but the time slot doesn't work, message me. I might be able to accommodate. 🎲

How Casey runs games

♦️Collaborative: Gaming is a conversation - I present a situation, you react; you take an action, the world reacts. We create the story together. ♦️Character-Driven: Your PCs' choices matter. Your character-arc matters. Your relationship with the PC group matters. It's your story. ♦️Character Spotlight: Everyone needs time to shine. Part of my job is make sure the spotlight gets passed. However, role play at your own comfort level. Speak in the third person if you prefer. Use your spotlight time as it suits you. ♦️Rules-Light: We roll dice only when something is at stake, or the degree of success matters. Your character is competent. ♦️Cinematic Combat: Combat plays fast. The more creative you are, the more fun combat can be. ♦️Open Door: I am always receptive to any questions or concerns you have. It's very important to me that my players feel safe and have fun! Happy Gaming!
