About Em

Hello, I‘m Em! I love crafting custom campaigns and worlds for my players, collaborative storytelling and roleplay, and most importantly creating a safe and comfortable environment for everyone at my table! I have been GMing for 6 years. I aim to create highly immersive experiences including portraits for all NPCs, voice acting, engaging background images, thematic music, and custom-made maps, tokens, and visual aids. I love collaborating with my players. I am always down to read and discuss backstory, I encourage players to help build and shape the world, and to have a lot of fun role playing together! In my non-rpg life, I’ve worked as a trainer, peer counselor, and tutor. I have experience working with people of many backgrounds, teaching and facilitating groups. I value inclusivity and do not allow any bigotry at my tables. I utilize safety tools and encourage open communication. I am also available for GM consulting sessions!

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

When I'm not running games I'm doing anything out in nature. Gardening, hiking, stargazing, meditating, birding, photography- anything outside and immersed in nature is for me!

How Em runs games

My GM style: - I customize campaigns and sessions to each group including the balance between roleplay, exploration, puzzles, and combat. - I love collaborating with my players! I am always down to read and discuss backstory, I encourage players to help build and shape the world, and PCs actions in game will always have effects on the world. - I like to create a fully immersive experience with voice acting, music, scene graphics, portraits for all npcs, visual components to puzzles, and full battlemaps. - I have experience in any genre but my games tend towards heroic, high fantasy, epic adventures or cozier, sillier settings. But no matter the genre, it’s all about story and characters and fun. - I have a very good grasp of the rules but I do love to homebrew and utilize the rule of cool. - My GM heroes are Brennan Lee Mulligan, Matt Mercer, and Aabria Iyengar- I follow their focus on narrative, stories, and characters. - If you'd like an example of my style, you can click on the youtube link below and check out my actual play!

Em's ideal table

My ideal table is one where there is trust and comfort between all players and the GM. Where everyone feels able to create collaboratively, try out new things like character voices, take big swings, and really effect the world and campaign.
