About me

Greetings, adventurers! My name is Guthrie, and I'm excited to be your next GM! I've been running TTRPG games for many years now, from fantasy classics like D&D 5E to the eldritch horrors of Call of Cthulhu and beyond. I'm always ready to embark on another epic journey and I'd love it if you would come along for the ride. As an aspiring author, RPGs are second-to-none for creating exciting narratives, compelling personal journeys, and fantastic worlds in my opinion. I try to bring a true passion for storytelling to every game I run, whether they be multi-year campaigns or one-shots written in an hour. I love narrative games with lots of roleplaying, but I'm no stranger to exciting combat and brain-scratching puzzles. I also enjoy a lot of mystery and humor in any story I happen to be telling. Inclusiveness is important to me, and I make it my personal goal to ensure that everyone at my table (physical or otherwise) is comfortable and having fun!

GM Style

In general, my strengths lie in games that focus on narrative and character. This applies to player characters especially, and having players who take active roles in affecting the world, characters, and story around them is one of the things that makes these games truly worth playing to me. Humor is another important aspect of storytelling to me. I firmly believe that without it, stories lose a key component to building compelling characters and worlds. (Plus, who doesn't love a bad pun?) With all of that being said, I want nothing more than for players to tell me exactly how they like to play. That could be a heavy focus on combat, massive amounts of exploration, impossible puzzles, or endless roleplaying, my GM style is extremely malleable and I'm always excited to try something new! The comfort and enjoyment of my players is my top priority, and I will do everything I can to make sure that everyone has a safe and pleasant time. I strive to create a fun atmosphere where everyone feels secure and able to enjoy the game to its fullest.
