How Dot runs games

Dot loves to tell stories. She believes that storytelling bridges demographics, builds community, and nourishes the human soul. Originally an actress, Dot found a passion for tabletop roleplaying games after being introduced to Dungeons and Dragons over 15 years ago. Now, she has developed a deep interest in indie tabletop roleplaying games and creates a safe safe space for everyone, regardless of location, background, or history in gaming, to roll dice and tell stories together. Her favorite tabletop games are Fate, Coriolis, Alien RPG, and Vampire the Masquerade. Dot's GMing style leans heavily into quirky characters, lots of roleplay, and deep storytelling. She uses combat and puzzle encounters only to drive the story and looks to the characters to develop the narrative. She takes a particular interest in dark sci-fi and fantasy stories.
