About Nik
I'm a writer and teacher from the US, now living in Spain. I've been GMing various TTRPGs for over 20 years. I love worldbuilding and crafting stories around my players' characters and the choices they make in-game. I make a special effort to make my games safe and inclusive spaces where we can tell immersive stories together.

How Nik runs games
I am a GM who loves telling exciting and engaging stories with memorable characters. Both crunchy combat-heavy games and rules-light, narrative systems appeal to me, the common throughline being that I care the most about making the stories we tell together feel real enough to get lost in.
Nik's ideal table
My ideal table has players who are invested in each others' characters, as well as the world we are playing in, and are excited to help build a story together.
