About me

I've been playing and running TTRPGs for around 35 years - starting with Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay and D&D 2nd edition, and now focusing on a range of more indie games. At the moment I am running long term Symbaroum and Spire games. I tend to enjoy games with rich and complex worlds with plenty of lore, and often on the more gritty side of things. I love it when a game presents you with tough choices. I also run Paladin Roleplaying - we make dice and other cool accessories for roleplaying games.

GM Style

My approach as a GM is to do my best to make sure that everyone at the table feels included and heard, and above all that everyone is enjoying themselves! I prep heavily for games, and I take the opinion that it's the GMs job to know the rules, not the players, so newbies are always welcome at my table. The story is more important to me than complex simulationist rulesets - Roleplaying is encouraged, and I prefer theatre-of-the-mind combat. Most of my games are low to mid crunch (ie not too rules-heavy) I always use video, and prefer that players do too - I find that the game runs smoother when we have some visual cues from each other as well as just audio. Zoom normally does the job nicely. I sometimes use Roll20 if the game would benefit from handouts, or to use automated character sheets. I'm friendly and approachable, and I welcome questions :)
