About GM Ray Nagle

Hello there! I'm a father of two boys, a husband that my amazing wife puts up with (does anyone really want to have a 2+ hour conversation about one specific performance art bit?) and a former elementary educator. I've been playing and running TTRPG's and LARPS for over 40 years and I certainly know this- If you want an action oriented game, heavy on character and sprinkled with absurdist moments, I am absolutely the right GM for you! I want my games to play like really rad TV shows. New players are great. Old players are great. Middle-aged players are expected. I don't believe that babies have the skill set to RP, but they sure are cute. Game on!

My favorite books are

focused on character, and lite on lore

My favorite system of all Time is

Blades in the Dark. If you haven't played it, you really should. It is the best game for player led shenanigans, and teaches players that the best way to plan is to not plan at all. Get to the good stuff!

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

energetic, collaborative and diabolical

How GM Ray Nagle runs games

Action oriented games with a focus on the exciting bits of the story. Definitely an improv style where I follow the players to the things that they are interested in. A lot of laughter and cheering at my table. Very experienced with a bunch of different story/indie games.
