About me

Hey adventurer! My names is Steve and I'm a game master from the UK, running Fantasy and Sci-Fi RPG campaigns and one shots. Mainly through the awesome Alchemy VTT platform. I'm all about giving my players choices and encouraging discussions that get you as players thinking and acting for yourselves. A good game for me is one where you feel part of the world and you feel taken on a journey and are left at the end of the session wanting to know more about it. My games involve lots of roleplaying of moral conflicts, character drama and posing questions that might challenge your characters world view and maybe consider your own while you're at it. Expect puzzles, enigmatic characters and of course a little combat when words are not enough. I love to have having audio and visual elements in my games so expect a well polished and fun game for everyone to enjoy. If that is something you're interested in then come and try a game with me. I would love to welcome you on a journey!

GM Style

I love a good story that involves player backstories that either aligns them with the main plots or puts them at odds with it, forcing a difficult choice. Expect a mix of combat, puzzles, moral dilemmas and interesting interactions with NPC's. I like to use visual and audio aids to increase immersion as well.

He enabed our choices, guided us through the platform and the rules of the game perfectly. It was a really enjoyable oneshot and had plenty of fun!

Great world building. Good balance between role-play and action. Inclusive and respectful. Interested in fleshing-out and developing player characters. Allows for fun and jokes. Doesn't railroad.

I could explore the system completely, and everything all the time very well displayed, both the rules and the narrative.

Very good at detailing the world around us, allows for us to be creative with how we play. Had a small discussion with each of us about our character so he could better entwine our characters into the world.
