Featured Prompts

I became a GM because

I love to be surprised by my players. I love to see where a game takes us. I love to share new and unforgettable moments!

My favorite system of all Time is

The Burning Wheel. Not because I play it all the time, but because it broke me out of thinking that the best a game could do was get out of my way.

When I'm not running games I'm...

reading or writing them (or about them)!

How Chloe runs games

For me, it's a kind of alchemy. It matters who the players are (yours truly included), what game we're playing, and how our social connections, personalities, feelings, and choices drive the experience. Put it all together and shake.

Featured Prompts

I deal with rules issues by...

hearing everyone out and making a decision for right now, and then revisiting it after the session.

I prep by

making a situation and direction for the forces at play and then welcoming my players to wreck everything!

My games focus on...

finding out who are characters are and what they do when encountering unexpected and challenging situations, and how their actions ripple out into the world around them. Play to find out!

Chloe's ideal table

Featured Prompts

I am for a vibe that's...

welcoming, egalitarian, collaborative and introspective. Everyone is an equal participant at my table. Even if we're delving into a dungeon and making all sorts of tactical decisions, I want to know why we make things happen in the game and how it makes us feel, especially through our characters.

I love it when a player

comes up with a cool idea that absolutely shakes up the scenario!

I think metagaming...

is an unavoidable part of any roleplaying game. The key is to use the "metagame" in a way that respects the fiction and everyone's contributions.
