About MrJPStilts

I’m a Storyteller who loves creating and sharing stories, collaborating with players to build incredible characters and worlds, and seeing how it all comes together. For me, TTRPGs are about getting away from the real world and just having fun with friends. I've been running games since 2017, including Dungeon World, Apocalypse World, Stars Without Number, Rogue Trader, Pathfinder 2e, Cypher System, Mörk Borg, and I love learning new systems! My style is more narrative-driven and improvisational—I prioritize an engaging story and player enjoyment over strict adherence to rules. My tables are respectful, engaging, and interactive, focusing on giving each character a chance to shine. I love teaching new players how to play, while also providing challenges for long-time players. New players can expect plenty of support and resources so they can focus on their character first and the rules second. If you don’t know everything about your character right away, that’s okay—we’ll make it up as we go. I’ve worked for years as a Manager of Learning and Development, onboarding adults to handle new jobs, so it’s second nature for me to welcome and train new players. I use Foundry VTT to run my games, taking advantage of its powerful modules to create a streamlined and immersive experience. Every game starts with a session zero, where we’ll set expectations, review rules, and discuss any safety tools that players may want. I also check in privately with players to ensure everyone is comfortable and having fun. I’ve been told I have a great storytelling voice, and I love running combat that is quick, exciting, and keeps everyone involved. As a teacher, I help each player learn at their own pace, engage virtually with ease, and handle any difficulties between adults smoothly. At the end of the day, my focus is always on making sure we all have a great time together.
