About me
Experienced, Friendly GM. All about the shared experience of RPGs. I’ve got the time and enthusiasm to write scenarios and run published adventures for lots of different systems.
GM Style
The Player Characters are the focus of every game. I enjoy a wide variety of systems and genres - from the high fantasy of D&D5E to the investigative horror of Vaesen & Cthulhu. The exact mix of RP, Exploration and Combat encounters tends to vary with the system and the group’s preferences. I almost always use gridded / tactical combat - simplified into Zone-based for certain games (particularly Cypher systems, Numenera, FATE, Vaesen and Dune).

Tom
Mick has been my main GM for the past nine years. Whether he's running a one-shot or a campaign, his adventures are always a great mix of role-playing, combat, puzzles, and moral quandries. He knows the rules and when to bend them. He works hard to make sure every player is enjoying the game.
Ian
Mick is a master storyteller who works with his players to create an immersive experience. His knowledge of the rules is excellent and combined with his flexibility to respond positively to new, novel or unusual player approaches to problem solving means that his games are memorable and enjoyable. He is a great DM and if you are in any doubt about picking him for your next roleplaying session, don't be. Sign up and you will not be disappointed.
