About Ash the Mad
Greetings Adventurers! My name is Ash and I've been a dreamer since I was a child. I started writing my own books and creating my own worlds since I learned how to write. I love fantasy and Sci-Fi settings and the moment I understood the possibility of being a Game Master -Creating a world then allowing my friends to play around in it-, was a new awakening for me. I have been running since 2016, usually with my own homebrew systems for my own novels, but I am happy to run whatever my players gain enjoyment from, since that is what drives me, to share an amazing experience and have fun! I take a very Libertarian approach to my games, with my strong points (as described by my players) Fantastic Worldbuilding, Immense freedom of movement, "Sandbox Feeling" (Whatever that is), Complete Chaos (Is that a good thing?), and realistic consequences. Anything is allowed, no holds barred, no railroad, no illogically imposed events and rules by me. Have fun and be good!

I got started GMing...
I wrote Novels and made video games since I was a child. Perhaps it was the natural conclusion of it. Before I even played a game, I made and ran a game.
My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: Children of the Horned Rat Warhammer 40k: Dark Heresy Pathfinder 2e
My favorite system of all Time is
Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader
How Ash the Mad runs games
Chaotic, I have tables upon tables of random generation running in the background to make every nook and cranny interesting, aside from swathes of already implemented content I got ready. I can create links between static and dynamic content. Libertine, I allow anything and everything, I encourage going off rails because I want to see where it goes, I allow my players to be and do whatever they want, so long as they accept the realistic consequences of their actions. Be very careful as I will not intervene in stupid decisions. Mysterious, I tell nothing of what lies beneath the unturned stone, although my tone might give some away! Everything is there for the player to find out and enjoy.
Ash the Mad's ideal table
I want fun, active players who take the initiative and are not shy to go after what they want, no matter how outlandish or shameless, and I will never railroad them and I will allow funny and creative ideas to take place freely. I am part of the Party, seeking to create amazing stories with them, and I am not an adversary or a punisher, but a challenger who always roots for them.
