About me

Hi, I'm Ruairidh (pronounced roo-ree), and I've been a GM for 7 years! I started in 5E but have grown to love a variety of systems and settings. I love how inclusive the TTRPG community is, which is something I strive to emulate! The community has helped me overcome tremendous social anxiety and I hope to help others do the same <3 I've introduced many new players to the hobby and enjoy seeing the creativity new players bring to the table. I'm based in Edinburgh, if you'd like to arrange an in person game drop me a message 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

GM Style

~ Roleplay heavy games - generally I encourage RPing in the first person but if players are more comfortable in the third person then I'm all for it! ~ Collaborative storytelling - everyone has equal power in shaping the story and I love reacting to elements of the story added by players! ~ Enthusiasm for your ideas and improvisation around them! ~ Active listening - making sure players and GM are on the same page is key for a smooth gaming experience. ~ Voices! ~ Player autonomy and impactful decisions
