About JudgeRPG

Peering into the mist you continue searching for someone willing to take your hand and be a gentle guide, navigating through the chaos that is tabletop RPGs. Something ahead of you begins to materialise, your heart skips a beat thinking you have been found by something nefarious however as the form coalesces you see it is a hand reaching out palm up, it is followed by an arm and finally by the rest of the body and a smiling face greets you. "Welcome, I have been waiting. Please, take my hand its time we got started." This begins your lifelong obsession with TTRPG's lead by JudgeRPG. Hi I'm Judge. I have been playing Tabletop games for over 20 years starting out on D&D 3.5 and exploring from there. I love a good story and will prioritize roleplay over combat and allow players to explore their characters. I started streaming over on Twitch in 2021 and began a series of one-shots where i could take new and veteran players through a 4 hour session hoping to entice a new round of heroes into the hobby. My crowning achievement was performing a one-shot at PAX Aus in front of 160 people! If this sounds interesting to you, then come join me for a game or a thousand!

I got started GMing...

Initially for Family then once i started my twitch channel it was a birthday stream which was so well received it turned into a monthly thing!

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be

Dungeon's and Dragon's 5e, Cypher System and Roll for Shoes

When I'm not running games I'm...

Spending time with my family (my eldest we call the Dragonborn and youngest is our Owlbear) I also love playing Tactical turn based RPG's (Larian Studios is amazing!)

How JudgeRPG runs games

Roleplay is King and Rule of Cool...well Rules! player interaction and character development is what i love to see between players and i am just a guiding hand on moving them through the world. I work primarily on Theater of the mind with aids as i find that getting too bogged down in "can i move there?" and spaces on a grid can slow things down. I run fantasy games but can adapt a setting to whatever the players want. a good mix of silly and serious is what you will find here.

My games focus on...

roleplay and character interaction either between themselves or with the world.

Rules are...

there to direct the game but not to be strangled by it. I will massage the rules a bit if it means a player get to have their "hero moment"

When it comes to voices

I try my damn hardest but forgive me if they slip!

JudgeRPG's ideal table

My Ideal table is having my players getting so invested in their characters and the world where cheers and tears flow freely throughout the story. they care not only for each pother but the NPCs they come across and truly want to solve the issues plaguing the world. at the end of the session they all pat each other on the back and keep thinking about the game until we sit down once more.

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

has a crazy idea they want to run past me that may not technically be by the rules and when it actually happens they get so excited by it.

I think it's a red flag when players...

take choice and enjoyment away from others at the table. (I'm looking at you edgy, sticky fingered rogues!)

I think min/maxing...

takes away from the essence of the game. to embody a character and have them exist in the world.
