About Kenan

π˜“π˜ͺ𝘧𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 π˜₯𝘦𝘒𝘡𝘩, 𝘴𝘡𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘡𝘩 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘒𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘫𝘰𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘒𝘯𝘀𝘒𝘬𝘦𝘴 - The Lopen, Oathbringer: Book 3 of The Stormlight Archive Hi, my name is Kenan and I've been GMing games since 2004. My #1 goal as a GM is to enable players to craft the story they desire and create the glue to allow all their expectations to mesh. I want sessions to be memorable, exciting and powerful but, above else, I want them to be YOURS. I am open to GMing basically anything outside of D&D. I really enjoy trying out and crafting stories with new systems: currently my favorites Fate, Pathfinder 2e, Draw Steel, FFG's Star Wars and the Cosmere RPG, but this list often changes! I make a point to listen to my players and try to incorporate any of their cool ideas into the games, so please speak out!

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

Fate, Cosmere RPG and Draw Steel!

My favorite books are

Anything written by Brandon Sanderson for the Cosmere (especially Mistborn and Sunlit Man!), every Discworld book and Children of Time from Adrian Tchaikovsky.

My favorite system of all Time is

Fate RPG, for how well it lends itself to collaborative storytelling and allowing for any kind of creative ideas from players!

How Kenan runs games

My number 1 priority ingame is making sure every player has a time to shine and that the game session touches on elements, themes and plot points the players find interesting, whether they be combat, investigating some cult, getting tortured by lovecraftian horrors or saving the world. I have some preference for more of a storytelling approach, but I'm definitely also into all the crunchy parts if that's what the players want! I am happy to bend rules for the story if required but also to be consistent so the players can plan ahead. I have an improvisational style that focuses on powerful scene beats that will make every session punch in a different way, so be ready to enjoy!

I deal with rules issues by...

making an educated guess and checking the rules later. Don't want to let the game get bogged down!

My games focus on...

what is FUN for the players at the table, first and foremost

Rules are...

Great for allowing players control of their characters by predicting how the world would react to them, but they immediately go out the window if they get in the way of the group's fun 😊

Kenan's ideal table

I have a big focus on communication and making sure everyone is at ease at the table. I try to gather player's expectations for the campaign and their characters so we can all have fun while crafting a great story! 😊

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

allows themselves to make choices that truly impact the story over simple tactical benefits.

I think min/maxing...

Is great on a campaign with a very scrappy survival theme and a waste of everyone's time elsewhere πŸ˜‰

My table is not the place for...

Racism, sexism, classism or LGBTQIA+-phobia.
