About me

🧐 Narrative-focused storytelling with an experienced LGBT+ GM? YES! 🧓🏻 In nearly 40 years of GMing I've run lots of different systems, including long-running campaigns of Ars Magica, Nobilis, Apocalypse World, and Castle Falkenstein. Currently I'm a huge fan of PbtA systems such as Dungeon World, Impulse Drive, and Monster Of The Week. 🏳‍🌈 I'm based in the U.K. and host games suited to the GMT/Europe timezones. I'm bisexual and non-binary. ❓ FAQ: Is that your real moustache? Yes, I really do look like the headshot - professionally I'm a magician and public speaker. ❓ FAQ: Does that mean you'll do magic tricks in the game? Probably not. It does mean I am a professional communicator and entertainer, and although I am not a Professional Voice Actor™ I am a member of the U.K. union Equity (the trade union for Pro-GMs). ❓ FAQ: Do you stream the game we're playing to Twitch or YouTube? No. You're playing for my time, not to be part of a show for a free audience. After the game I will send you an unlisted link to the recording of the Zoom session. It's yours, not public. If any of the players do not want to be recorded then we won't do that.
