About Greg
I've been playing TTRPGs for about ten years, and I have a background in acting, so of course I got into GMing for myself! I started with DND, but soon branched out into other games as well. I've taken players through several few published and homebrew campaigns, mostly using the DND 5e system.

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be
Worlds Without Number, so I can easily build adventures and NPCs. Dolmenwood, so I have a complete world to explore. And DND 5e so I have other people to play with!
My favorite books are
US history books, and anything by Terry Pratchett or Douglas Adams!
The three words my players would use to describe me are...
My players would describe me as: ENCOURAGING in enabling them to to tell their characters' individual stories, WELL-EQUIPPED with all the needed resources for any story they want to tell, and generally EASYGOING and approachable.
How Greg runs games
I believe in the power of collaborative storytelling. My role as GM is to be the vehicle through which players write their own legends. Obviously the roleplay is a very important aspect to me, but I also lean into the branch of TTRPG play the players like most - tuning toward combat or exploration as preferred. I have gathered lots of content over time (tokens, artwork, maps, macros, music random tables, etc) that I use in my games. Players will be able to access my secure Foundry VTT server outside the game session if needed. Overall, I have built a flexible foundation from which I can give players the extra level of immersion that turns a good game into a great one.

My favorite trope is...
wizards using hordes of undead for their own weird purposes.
Rules are...
the tools to forge a legend, but they are not the legend itself.
When it comes to voices
I'm sometimes consistent, but always enthusiastic.
Greg's ideal table
My table is a relaxed, collaborative space where we build the story together. And lots of play styles can tell a great story! Combat rules experts, heavy roleplayers, gritty explorers - everyone is welcome at my table, as long as we work as a team and allow each other to shine.

I am for a vibe that's...
cheerful, keeping in mind we're here to play a game, tell a cool story, and have an awesome time!
I love it when a player
connects to an NPC in a way I don't expect
I think min/maxing...
is best done as a group. That way, everyone is on the same page, and players' characters can be even more min/maxed, because they know exactly the type of support they can expect from other players in the group.
