About Jase

Hi, I'm Jase from South West Australia and I'm into metal, mushrooms and mythology. I got into ttRPG's in the 90s and fell in love with settings like Planescape, Dark Sun and Vampire: The Dark Ages. I was drawn back to the hobby by Critical Role and I've been running online games now for over 10 years and recently decided to try it as a side-hustle. I listen to a lot of metal music, audio books, NADDpod and Glass Cannon shows as I go about my day job as a fungi farmer.

How Jase runs games

I respect the rule of cool and tend to run in a Rules as Intended style but my true measure of how well a game is going is in the laughter. Most of my happiest memories from these games involve a lot of laughing and good cheer, even playing in the grimmest of grim dark settings.

Featured Prompts

I deal with rules issues by...

having a quick back and forth then deciding on a ruling and continuing the game. If there is still some debate or confusion, I'll put a pin in it and hunt down the appropriate rules to clarify before the next game.

My favorite trope is...

haggling with hags. Convincing the players to take the too-good-to-be-true bargain when their every instinct is to run screaming. And it's always fun doing a crone's cackle.
