About Noah Micah

Hi! My name is Noah, Micah, and NoahMicah, you can choose whatever to call me. My pronouns are he/him/his and they/them/theirs and I am half Filipino. I have been GM-ing since 2020, beginning with a way too ambitious homebrewed D&D 5e original story that I still hold dear in my heart. I am a published writer and, as such, I prioritize storytelling and making sure I incorporate as much of my players’ wants and desires for their characters as much as possible. The aspect of communal storytelling is what I love the most about GM-ing TTRPGs. This also includes making sure I make everyone feel comfortable and welcome, be that in ensuring boundaries are respected to incorporating players’ experiences and cultures in the story. I am very proud of my Filipino culture and include that in as many games as possible, so I extend that to my players too. I want to make sure everyone feels heard and has a ton of fun at the same time! Genres I tend to gravitate towards are horror, fantasy, science fiction, and modern/slice of life. Often, I blend one or two or three of these together. If you are looking for deep worldbuilding and a table where your voice is heard and listened to, come on in! I hold all my games on Discord and will provide you with a link when you sign up. I look forward to getting to know you!

My favorite system of all Time is

Powered by the Apocalypse! You will definitely catch me running games that use this system the most.

How Noah Micah runs games

My number one priority when GM-ing is making sure every player feels like a main character. Due to this, my sessions focus heavily on roleplaying and encouraging players to connect and play off one another. When I do have combat, I like to make the encounters feel challenging to really push player creativity and collaboration. I am a huge proponent of "Rule of Cool" as I think it's more important to reward player creativity and imagination than it is to strictly follow the rules as written. Basically, I just want everyone to have a great time, even if we're doing something gritty or horror themed.

Noah Micah's ideal table

Players that prioritize getting deep into playing their characters and developing them will do well with me. If they choose an action that makes things worse for their character rather than choosing the most optimal action, all because that worse choice is what their character would do? I love those players. Not being afraid to be vulnerable will take you a long way as well. I will always welcome players that also share the spotlight so that everyone can feel like the main character.

I think metagaming...

is boring and sucks the fun out of games.
