About me

Why Hello! I've been playing TTRPGs avidly since 2018. Ever since I ran my first game, I've been in love with the collective storytelling we get to achieve while at the table. This kickstarted my hobby as a forever GM and I've been playing near-weekly games ever since. To me, the most important aspects of gameplay are player inclusion, communication, respect and kindness. I do my best to keep every player engaged and feeling included by using their backstory to further tie them into the adventure, as well as make in-game tactics to instill agency and motive in my players. I aim to establish open lines of communication with players and the group through private DMs, as well as through the use of safety tools like session 0's, drawing content "lines" for each game, using breaks for check-ins and discussion if needed. My table is a space that puts mutual respect and kindness above all. We all come from different perspectives on life, and we can all acknowledge the humanity in each other by treating others with dignity and understanding. My table is welcome to all who agree, including LBGTQ+ players. Thanks, and game on!!! -Salvador

GM Style

What I bring to the game: -10+ years of GM, fiction writing, and stage performance (music) - Fair tactical rulings, rule of cool, and improv (yes, all at the same time!) -Strong fluency on the core rules of the systems I run -Emphasis on roleplay and character engagement -inclusion of character backstories to the adventure plot -Memorable NPCs with some voicework -Immersive description and in-game conversations -Atmospheric music tailored to each scenario -Adventure plots with tons of intrigue/tragedy/magic/whimsy/drama -Deep knowledge of lore/ history of campaign settings like Forgotten Realms and Critical Role's Exandria -Challenging tactical combat encounters -Homebrew rules/items/abilities -Experience and understanding with teaching new players -Safety tools to tailor the game to the preferences of each player
