I became a GM because
I want to create worlds.
My favorite system of all Time is
BECMI D&D. I don't think it is the best to actually run or play but I love it with nostalgia and rose-covered glasses.
When I'm not running games I'm...
printing, building, and painting miniatures.
How Robin Gauthier runs games
I'm ultimately a simple GM. I like a blend of dice and role play. Character and story are woven together with game play to produce a unique experience. I give evocative but sparing description that keys off of hitting memory triggers in my players' minds to produce imagery I'd never achieve otherwise. I use a VTT (Foundry) for combat where I think it enhances the game. I do custom maps with simple tokens for clarity.

My favorite trope is...
Xanatos Gambit. Having the villain win because of the player's anticipated actions is awesome.
Rules are...
guidelines. Important guidelines that a GM should try very hard to honor, especially in spirit.
When it comes to voices
I have one.
