About Jessie
With over 15 years experience as a Gamemaster, I love bringing to life the story of the party and their antics. I enjoy telling stories with the players' involvement, using their character ideas to influence arcs of the overall campaign. Most of my campaigns involve 5-9 session arcs that take the party through a leg of their journey and culminating in a boss adventure including the various themes from the last several sessions. Challenges may come in the form of puzzles, skill checks, social interactions, or tactical roleplay and combat.

How Jessie runs games
I love to roleplay, finding a lot of joy in turning a simple situation into a mess of consequences. In combat, I like to drive the players towards non-standard objectives, tactics, and silly solutions derived from desperation. I do gestures and voices, and I live for the experience of bringing a player to the height of expression over their character

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...
Tim Burton and Zack Snyder
I once ran a session...
Where the players put Zac Oyama of Dropout fame in a Magic Jar and made him help with their magical research
My favorite trope is...
Players aggressively failing forwards
Jessie's ideal table
Tables should include a number of the various playstyles among them, such as tacticians, socialites, Artificers, craftspeople, or schemers! At the end of the day, the goal should be a group of people who can get along while being actively harassed by the world around them. I want to create an environment where everyone feels enabled to take big swings and make cool moments whether they pass or fail.

I am for a vibe that's...
all about having fun at the table. Lets build a group dynamic!
I think min/maxing...
is up to the player! I like being able to dynamically design fights, and min/max'ed characters can give me new hurdles to work with.
My table is not the place for...
railroading. I like to let the story unfold for all of us. I keep an eye on what direction, and I have a vague goal in mind, but I don't bother with trying to run the players down a set path
