About doc bricker
Ale! & well met! I look for character-driven storytelling that develops the adventuring party through narrative choices that matter. My games are heavy with tactical combat and social encounters, and I ensure that all characters enjoy the spotlight.

I got started GMing...
...because I wanted to play but could not find a group.
My favorite system of all Time is
...Dungeons & Dragons. The original that started it all.
When I'm not running games I'm...
...drinking around the world at Epcot or else visiting Black Spire outpost on Batuu.

I think min/maxing...

My table is not the place for...
Power gamers looking to "break the game".
