About me
I am a GM that's a fan of the Player Characters, I love giving them challenges and seeing how they will overcome them. I'm focusing on player agency and on the consequences of their actions. I like tactical combat but always leave space for RP and character bonds. I encourage teamwork but sometimes I like to stir some drama between characters. I'm always open to feedback if you have any comments about my style or advice on how I can improve don't hesitate to tell me after the session. I'm an experienced GM and know many systems from more mainstream like D&D or Pathfinder to more indie like my favourite Mistborn Adventure Game.
GM Style
I run games focusing on players' meaningful choices and giving them a space for creativity. I like to challenge the PCs and think a good story can be made even if PCs won't succeed, and how the story will end is always in their hands. I always have prepared music, maps, and handouts.

Players say this GM is great at:
Creativity
Knows the Rules
Storytelling
Dave is very good at creating a setting where players can play their characters however they want. He is very good at improvising and bouncing off of people's characters with his npcs. He does allow and adapt for some unique solutions. He also does have a good sense of the game and knows when to push rules and when to relax. Overall I do recommend him.
This was my first foray into PF2, and into a Kingdom building game. Dave's knowledge of the game mechanics was invaluable for new players like me learning the system. His sense of humor and improvisation skills, the keystone to good GMs, are invaluable for memorable player experiences. I would recommend Dave to anyone, new or old, that wants a quality GM behind the screen.
