About me

Hi, I'm Ernie! I've been a Game Master for over nine years, starting with Pathfinder 1E and exploring various systems and playstyles since then. I love picking up new games, especially the ones with easy rules that let players get creative. Right now, I’m really into running Dragonbane and Pirate Borg sessions. When I'm not gaming, I enjoy exploring cities, attending meetups at local game stores, and playing board games. These activities fuel my creativity and passion for storytelling. I tailor my GMing style to suit my group's preferences, whether they're into combat-heavy scenarios or immersive role-playing. Personally, I favor role-playing and creative thinking, often engaging in improv with players to see what stories we can create together. People often describe me as easy-going and accommodating, focusing on inclusivity and giving everyone a moment to shine. I usually run games during weekday evenings, CST time. If you're interested in joining a game, feel free to reach out through my Discord channel, Ernie's Game Room. I welcome people from all backgrounds. In a role-playing world, we have the freedom to be whoever we want to be, and I strive to create an environment where everyone can express themselves freely and creatively. Join me for an adventure where your imagination is the limit!

GM Style

I live for those spontaneous, off-the-cuff moments in games. There’s nothing better than rolling with the wild ideas players come up with. I’m all about player agency and love helping you dive into whatever piques your interest—even if it seems mundane, I’ll make it engaging and fun. Not every problem needs a sword or a gun to solve, but if that’s the route you want to take, I’m game! Expect plenty of traps and puzzles to keep things interesting, NPCs brought to life, and combat that’s thrilling but not the main event. I’m a big fan of the rule of cool and love throwing in homebrew content to keep things fresh.
