About me

Greetings, fellow adventurers! I’m Gerik, your dedicated Pathfinder 2e Game Master! For years, I’ve been immersed in the world of Golarion, guiding brave heroes through its fantastical world. I bring a blend of creativity, humor, and immersive storytelling to every session. I take heavy inspiration from shows like Narrative Declaration/Glass Cannon Podcast, and look to foster a table community where everyone can laugh together and feel welcome. I have been described as theatrical, high-energy, and a bit of a madman when playing a nefarious villain. But above all, I am a GM who wants you to have a good time, and I'll do my best to make that happen! But don't just take my word for it, see what others have to say: Avery: "Honestly Gerik's games are some of the most fun I've had in years playing TTRPGs." - 111 Sessions Heath: "He adds a ton of personality to the encounters with his voices and memorable enemies" - 53 Sessions Matt: "He is very passionate about his games - He goes all in with his characters, really bringing them to life." - 84 Sessions So come on, what are you waiting for? Book a game! I look forward to playing with you soon!

GM Style

Roleplay Intensity: I thrive on character-driven narratives. When players fully embrace their roles, magic happens. Expect a welcoming environment where voices, quirks, and character depth are encouraged and celebrated. Expect improv RP moments with both NPCs and your fellow players. Pathfinder isn't only about combat, I believe you can tell great narrative stories with this system! Players in my games are encouraged to explore their characters' motivations and personal growth, and how their unique personalities, values, and desires shape their actions and evolve. Pathfinder 2e Mastery: This system is my bread and butter. From the intricate action economy to the rich lore, I’ve got you covered. I love highlighting all the cool details of Golarion and putting spotlights on lesser-known aspects through my original games! Not every encounter will be a slugfest either, we'll use the various subsystems that Pathfinder has on offer to add variety to your experience! Teamwork Challenges: Pathfinder 2e thrives on teamwork. My encounters are designed to test your group’s synergy. We’ll face cunning foes, unravel mysteries, and celebrate victories together. Know this: a hero's path is never traveled alone, and you'll need daring allies to conquer the challenges I have in store for you! Custom Content: In addition to official Paizo adventures, I also create all sorts of original content. Whether that's original adventures/campaigns, assets like maps created using various programs, or new baddies to keep you on your toes, I am ready and able to give our adventures a personal touch!
