About Trey
My name is John Lemmel and I go by Trey. I live in Denver, CO with my family that consists of my wonderful partner Sami and my Frenchie by the name of Odie. I have been the forever GM ever since I started playing TTRPGS 15 years ago. I have played many systems and settings with Dark Fantasy OSR being a personal favorite of mine. I am very passionate about this hobby as I find it very fulfilling and natural. I find it not only easy to run the games but also easy to do the less talked about aspects of the hobby such as recruitment, scheduling, and the pre game socialization to warm everyone up for actual play. When I'm not running games I enjoy reading history, horror, and fantasy as well as playing video games.

How Trey runs games
My games lean on the traits that make TTRPG stand out from other forms of entertainment. These traits being agency, immersion, and creativity. My games are open ended experiences where every choice the players make can have wide reaching effects on the setting that we have shared. Players would be able to establish their own goals and move forward in a mysterious world ripe for exploration and adventure. In game players are rewarded for "thinking outside the box" and using in setting elements to their advantage. In order to keep the players engaged my games are serious in tone to keep investment high and the world believable. The world is dangerous and the players can use this to their benefit to become dangerous themselves. With danger around every corner the players need to use more than their character sheets to survive. I am excited to conquer the challenges ahead together!
