About Game Master Ruby

📜 Pro GM running games in-person and online for 7+ years 🚫 AI-free games | No AI used in any materials or preparation 🧙 Introduced and taught over 70+ new players to ttrpgs 🏳️‍🌈 Queer woman building welcoming and inclusive games ⚔️LARPer of 8+ years | Full-time crew across several LARP games 🇬🇧 Based in London, UK Whether you’re brand new to tabletop roleplay games or a veteran player, there’s always room for another hero at my table. I love introducing new players to the hobby and watching them fall in love with the magic and immersion of ttrpgs. One of my favorite parts of GMing is seeing players grow their confidence, coming out of their shells and really step into their characters and the story. I also enjoy giving the forever GM the chance to finally sit on the other side of the screen and enjoy being a player again. At my tables I hope to reignite that thrill for you of not knowing what awaits in the dark corners of exploration, or where the story will twist next. I often run published adventure modules, but enjoy adding homebrew to strengthen the story and better integrate player characters. Your next adventure starts here!

My favorite books are

His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullan: I absolutely adore the worldbuilding, the dӕmons, and the sense of mysterious adventure Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer: Yet to read the rest of the Southern Reach series, but have high hopes, as the sci-fi cosmic horror hits so many story beats I love

People are always surprised when I tell them

I have an MSc in Zoology! With a life long love of animals and evolution, I’m sure to put my knowledge to use creating immersive ecosystems and homebrewing new beasts for you to face.

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

Crewing live action role-play games, turns out I can't stop roleplaying even away from the table! Crewing larps means I get to continue my love of delivering memorable stories to players, and engage in all the spell-slinging and blade clashing combat we love in ttrpgs in real life.
