My background in theater, LARPing, and endless tabletop sessions means I bring a cinematic flair and storytelling depth to every session. Gamers and Goths is my platform to celebrate creativity, strategy, and the magic of collaborative storytelling, and I can’t wait to share that with you. Ready for your next adventure?

Expect vivid descriptions, finely-tuned pacing, and a relentless sense of immersion that will have you fully invested in your character’s journey. Whether you’re uncovering the mysteries of the void, battling sinister forces in shadowed realms, or navigating the treacherous politics of a crumbling empire, I’m here to guide you through it all. At my table, your story takes center stage, and every roll, every choice, and every moment will leave its mark.

This GM creates compelling stories, makes sure that everybody's comfort is taken care of, and is fantastic at building characters for players who don't know the system or don't want to go through character creation. Style tends to lean more towards horror with plenty of RP to go around.
