About Desert

I've been playing RPGs since 1985, then started GMing in 1987. Never looked back from being a GM, I prefer it to playing. I learned on AD&D 2nd Edition, DMed every Edition since then, and I'm one of those weird ones who didn't actually mind 4th at all. I also Run Pathfinder, Pathfinder 2, Starfinder, Mongoose Traveller 2nd, Traveller 5, Twilight 2000, Rifts, Palladium Fantasy, and Dark Heresy. Recently Disabled, so was suggested I try GMing for hire, since it's what I know best and love to do.

I became a GM because

I have a wild imagination and can be creative as I want to be within the context of the story. And those ideas usually bring me to more ideas, so the fun never ends.

How Desert runs games

I am an old style GM, so lots of voices, combat and roleplay. I take more of a serious bend on my games, and rules are guidelines more than hard fast rules. I also do a lot of house rules, and have even created my own RPG. Most of the time, I just go with the flow the players put down as far as the play style they like best. I add funny memorable voices, create my own maps when needed, and use Syrinscape for background mood music.
