About KINGYAGA
Greetings and Salutations. My name is Garret, known online as King Yaga. I'm a gamer, a nerd and most importantly I'm DEEPLY in love with TTRPGs. My first ever game was in 2006 where we played the D&D module "Against The Cult Of The Reptile God" and i was hooked. 4 years later i ran my first game Castle Amber, and I've been a GM ever since. For 16 years I've GMd hundreds of games. from long form campaigns to 1 shots to everything in between. Roleplaying is my passion and i hope that it shows with the worlds that i make.

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be
D&D, its a classic. super modular. so much can be done with D&D. Pathfinder 2e. its a crunchier system but sometimes i really wanna mess with numbers. Vaults of Vaarn 2e. post apocalyptic mutants and cyborgs and mosters OH MY

When I'm not running games I'm...
Playing games. whether its other ttrpgs or video games im a gamer at heart. my steam library is so large its almost embarassing
How KINGYAGA runs games
I consider myself as a high roleplay, high powered GM. I like my players to feel powerful. Like forces of nature. I'm very combat forward as well. someone who enjoys making combats tricky, like a puzzle to solve rather than a straightforward battle. I LOVE interparty conflicts and drama.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...
the lovechild of Quentin Tarantino and Seth Rogen. im here to make a silly time with a straight face.
My games focus on...
FUN! first and foremost i want to create a fun adventure for my players. with interesting characters and situations to run into.
Rules are...
Set as a Foundation but meant to be broken. rules should not ge tin the way of fun
KINGYAGA's ideal table
i call my table a "spaghetti fantasy" its silly, sometimes outrageous but ran with a straight face. Bumbles Mcgrundle could be looking for someone to save his brother from a lovestruck beholder. i tend to write serious narratives with silly overtones. and the games i run always put players first and foremost.

I love it when a player
cares about my world/setting in general. interacting with the world and npcs and even your party members brings me immense joy.
My table is not the place for...
people who don't understand that this is supposed to be fun, or try to take others fun away. if your FUN is min-maxing and overpowering yourself that's PERFECTLY FINE. but other people have fun in other ways
