How forlackofabetternerd runs games

I'm a longtime lover of tactical RPGs that veer toward the narrative side of things, and I take cues from legendary GM role models like Brennan Lee Mulligan and Chris Perkins. I'm a firm believer that investing in characters (and by extension, their players) is a one-way road toward a fun, entertaining game experience.

forlackofabetternerd's ideal table

The kinds of players I have the most fun with are: 🖤 Open & curious, with an enthusiasm about who their character is, and how they fit into the world; 🖤 A bit eccentric—weird & creative ideas are the stuff GM dreams are made of; 🖤 Social(-ish) folks who take an interest in their fellow players; 🖤 Kind, open-minded & respectful of others!
