About me

Epic stories. Cozy moments. Proudly queer. Welcome! I'm Kai Solace (they/them), a theatre kid turned TTRPG nerd who is absolutely in love with this form of collective storytelling. As a game master, I focus on immersive roleplaying, tailoring every adventure to the players and their characters, and encouraging shenanigans whenever possible. I bring a lot of "yes and" energy to the virtual table and strive to foster a spirit of fun and creativity!

GM Style

My GM style is... šŸ‘„ Player stories first. My favorite part of TTRPGs is making meaningful shared stories with you, the amazing people at my tables. And my philosophy is always that the players are the heroes of the story. When in doubt about what to do next, I go to "what makes the most sense for the story/would be appropriately dramatic/would allow my players to explore X part of their backstory?" first. šŸ©µ Laid back. I'm not a huge rules stickler, I love messing around with unique mechanics, and I'll generally allow something if it seems cool. I use virtual tools that are simple, free to players, and allow even the most novice player to immediately start playing. šŸ’­ Creative. I tend to re-write large sections of written modules to make them specific to each group I'm running it for, and try to keep sessions fresh with interesting mechanics, monsters, or encounters. I put my theatre training to use with character voices and immersive music and sound. I also love it when players think outside the box! I love to "yes and" your incredible ideas (within reason - sometimes it becomes a "no but"). šŸ“– All the lore. Worldbuilding is my JAM and I tend to overthink lots of little details about a campaign's story and setting because I find it really fun. I especially love it when this is guided by or co-created by players, and I welcome you into as much or as little of the process as you would like to be a part of.
