About me

Hey there, I'm Michael! Great to meet you. I have a bachelors degree in Game Design, I've been playing and DMing for 6 years and have been obsessed with telling stories for as long as I can remember. I gravitated towards TTRPGs from the moment I discovered them now and found no better medium for sharing an unforgettable adventure with others. From Fantasy to Cyberpunk to Sci Fi, I love exploring different genres and systems to best fit the story we all want to tell.

GM Style

šŸ“œ Something I love most about running games is the ever evolving emergent narrative. I will "Yes, and" anything because it makes for so much more engaging stories. šŸ’œ I accept any and all types of players and I always ensure through a good session 0 that everyone knows what the limits of the game are and that they are safe to get fully immersed in the narrative without fear of things getting too real. šŸŽ­ I aim for a mix of tones where the mood can shift from soaring highs to crushing lows but what I will always ensure is consistent is player comfort. I like to give a good mix of exploration, lore, combat, intrigue and, most importantly of all, roleplay. Both between players at the table and with the world at large. āš”ļø Adventures will be daring, risky and often survived by the skin of your teeth, though I'm often hesitant to fully kill off a Player Character. Why kill a player character when you can twist their backstory knife until the handle breaks?
