About me

Hail and well met travelers! My name is Michelle and I hail from the far realm of Texas. I've been playing and GMing tabletop rpgs since 2015 with 5th edition Dungeons and Dragons and have been branching out into Powered by the Apocalypse, Savage Worlds, and more! A mix of combat and roleplay with a dash of puzzles is the perfect recipe for a campaign in any setting! As a GM I focus on the players and their interactions with the world, allowing them to drive the story in the direction they would like to explore the most. Another part of this player driven focus comes in part of a consent checklist to ensure nothing is accidently brought up that would be detrimental to a great time. The majority of 5e games that I run come from my own personal homebrew setting of Neptulora and many of the official modules that I run will be as setting agnostic as possible. Official Wizards of the Coast content is always welcome for character creation and many third party options as well but please check with me first!


GM style

When I GM I focus more on the players, who they are and what characters they want to play. I like to work closely with all players to make sure the character they've made will be good for them and that they'll have fun playing. I also try to work with players to incorporate backstories where possible as well as remove any distressing elements from the game and use a system related to the x-card. I do my best to balance roleplay and combat, for the most part the players I've had usually lean towards roleplay and I tailor the game as such. When roleplaying I do my best to be creative with my voices where I can as well as trying to have various unique NPCs. For combat I do my best to give all players a chance to shine in different encounters. I also use quite a bit of home rules when it comes to combat as well as being a little looser with the rules in general as I usually end up running intro to the game style sessions.
