About Malachi
Heya! I'm Malachi! I am a forever GM who wants to bring y'all into the this wonderful hobby, or just help ya do said hobby! I got started on TTRPG's during a time when I was very anti-social and in a rather dark spot. My brother convinced me to try out a Curse of Strahd game at a hobby store near us. Needless to say I fell in love After that campaign was over I started a TTRPG club at my Highschool, and in a online RP sever, GM'ing clicked with me like nothing else, and bringing folks into the hobby is something truly special. Now? I hope to give others the same love for this wonderful amazing hobby as I have grown to hold! (And maybe get the funds for even more game-books while doing it)

How Malachi runs games
As a GM my goal is to help my player have fun, that is the core of a good campaign! I am no voice actor, nor author, but I will make a world for my players that they can sink into as they please. As a player I want you to feel that every session is a place to unwind, have fun, and tell a story with fellow nerds! (While being hit with a bit of angsty spooky pain of course) In my opinion good TTRPG campaigns are full of contrasts, spooky horror, high stakes combat, sad rainy moments, and cozy safehouses can, and should, be side by side! What is the point of a deadly fight if not the fear of losing beloved characters after all? A player who has an idea and some stats should have as much fun as a player who has a 5 page lore doc and commissioned art, yet that passion for their story should also be rewarded and praised. Rules should guide, but not constrain, and stories should be just the same, this is why rule of cool, PC homebrew openness, and fun over text are core tenants of my games. I should add, I love making supplementary materials! In-lore documents, radio transmissions, and just about anything else of that nature! Have you played TTRPG's for 28 years? Great! I would love to have you join us, and share your passion for the space with others! Have you never played a TTRPG in you life? The majority of my players never did! This hobby, its many communities, and I, welcome you, I hope you may join us at my table, and step into a such a freeing space, as I did.

My games focus on...
Fun, Intense moments, Good vibes, and party scheming. I love mixing the lightest of light with darker, grimmer moments, and I think that makes some of the best sessions. Along with that, a good scheme is always welcome, from the party or their foes!
Rules are...
Nice, but never nicer than fun. Game-flow, rule of cool, and overall enjoyment will always matter more than being 5 feet too far from a goblin
Malachi's ideal table
I love thespians, artists, and folks with a passion for the game! I also adore showing folks the ropes, and am always open for questions

I love it when a player
Gets obsessed with their own character, art, little quirks they may have, lore docs. It always warms my heart
I think min/maxing...
Is not something to be chased, nor will I oft encourage it, but it certainly has its charm, and can fit given the right time and place
