About me
Hi all! I’m Emma, the Game Master behind Cozy Critical, a space where I hope to bring collaboration, cozy fun, and epic adventure together for people's enjoyment. Tabletop games provide a restful outlet that helps us disconnect from the real world for a little while, and I hope that my games can provide that for you! With over 5 years as a GM, 7 years playing TTRPGs, 6 years as a middle school science teacher, and 3 years in higher education I bring rich game mechanics together with an environment where players can feel comfortable learning new systems and trying new things. My goal is to create welcoming games that blend character development, emotional fantasy adventure arcs, and hopefully the right amount of chaos and silliness. Between a professional virtual tabletop setup and my past experience leading fantasy games, streaming TTRPGs, podcasting, and performing theater, I offer a strong foundation for us to build something special at the table. Whether you are new to TTRPGs or have played longer than I have, I hope you'll join me for some collaborative fun. Thanks so much, and I look forward to telling unforgettable stories together 💫
GM Style
Let's unravel a story together. I hand you the puzzle pieces to a tale and you arrange them together. I offer you challenges to test your characters and, in the most serious cases, determine whether they can brave the journey forward. I push your characters in combat to bring out the best of your gameplay. You step into my world and I offer the framework within which you become the hero. In short, I offer a balance between all aspects of a tabletop RPG experience. Combat - trivial, intermediate, and deadly, will constitute much of your hero's physical growth. Roleplay - mystery, self-discovery, and personal hardship, will encompass much of your character's inner growth.

I played in an Eberron D&D one-shot that Emma ran, of her own design. It was clear that she had put effort into knowing Eberron's themes and using the virtual tabletop software to build a great online experience. Playing with her was a welcoming, fun experience that I'd be glad to do again!

NerdFlux is an awesome GM to play under. We ended up doing the Fistful of Flowers FreeRPGDay game (from this past year I believe), may have been a separate one-shot thing. Either way! It was awesome. The players meshed well and really killed the RP. NerdFlux did wonderful voices for her NPCs and I really enjoyed myself! I will be back in the future for more games and hope someday to see a longer run AP! If you are new to Pathfinder and want a fair shake, then you couldn't ask for a better GM to learn with.

I really appreciated the way Foundry was set up for immersive combats. I also liked that a good pace was kept considering the limited time available. Rules questions were handled quickly without everything breaking down.

Nerdflux is a great Game Master and ran the game very well. She helped me and my wife get our character's set up before the game and answered all of our questions. Once the game started she made sure that every player got a chance to shine both in Role play and combat. The music, Images and Maps were stunning and really helped bring the right tone to the game. Even when my internet went down in the middle of the game she kept things running smoothly. If your New or a veteran Nerdflux is going to provide a great gaming experience!
