About me

I’m a big fan of you the player and love to see the party succeed but not because the adventure was easy, but because you triumphed against the odds. I'm known as Japes (jay-ps) in IRL as well. GMing is something I’ve been doing for a long time as I started when the D&D Blue box set came out. Its waxed and waned over the years, as other life events took presidents. In 2020 I found I had the time to GM more as my daughter had started her A levels (UK exams and has now finishing her degree… yes I’m a proud Dad). One online game running on Roll20 turned into many and some of those players have played through a few campaigns settings and a couple are still at the table. I’ve since moved to FoundryVTT and haven’t looked back. Still like to play across the table but times have changed and online is far more popular. Now I run a variety of games systems. Alien RPG, Discworld, D&D, Call of Cthulhu and from time to time Blades in the Dark. You’ll find Dyslexia rules KO here, as does a dry sense of humour. Everyone is welcome at these game tables, regardless of your ethnicity, background, or how you identity. All I ask is that you treat others with mutual respect, so we can focus on having an amazing time. Bring your creativity to the table and embrace your dream character – whether that’s a D&D Fairy Barbarian, a Firbolg Monk, or in Call of Cthulhu a 1920’s black female FBI agent. It is a gateway to your adventure!

GM Style

I like to run all of the games with consistency. Be that the story, handling the rules or those rascal players ideas that are just off the wall... and to be fair, if its seems plausible we’ll see a dice roll as to how well you pull it off… I love to see you having fun with the games and when I see you really get into your character that is where I feel the enjoyment begins (doesn’t need voice acting). As for the side I play… regardless of the game being the darker themed Call of Cthulhu or the more classical D&D, I like them to be intelligent when they are or evil when needed and play as though they’re trying to succeed. At times some may turn and run, others duke it out till the end. Above all else where here to have some fin and I love to hear you laugh when those silly moments come up. I might not hear you as I’ll be laughing too. It doesn’t matter the system, those fumble rolls at the critical moment are funny and those perfect rolls will have everyone cheering.
