About Nomad
I've been GM'ing for 3 decades now, so I think it's safe to say I have a love for telling good stories. I also have a gift for improvisation when it comes to running a game, so when players throw me a curve ball or drive the train off the tracks, my thought is "Well... Let's see where this goes!" I'm always one for giving the players as much autonomy as possible (so long as it doesn't interfere with another players enjoyment.) I usually emphasise "role" playing over "roll" playing, but never shy away from some combat, I tend to go 60/40 in favor of role playing over combat. I also love using music and ambient sound to enhance the setting's mood (but never enough to overpower the conversation to the point where players have to shout "I can't hear what the NPC said!") I'm horrible at filling these things out, so if you have more questions, please feel free to ask! :)

When I'm not running games I'm...
Most likely doing RP in the video games I play. Anything from Star Citizen to FiveM, anything that lets me portray a character in video game format is what I love to do (as well as helps me fine tune my craft!)
How Nomad runs games
I'm all for letting players get as invested into their characters as possible, from life goals down to personality quirks. The more your invested into your character, the more I can run my favorite genre of game... Horror :) I tend to favor role play over combat, but when combat occurs, I tend to make it feel like there are stakes involved. I do tons of character voices (sometimes I'll even bring out the voicemods too) but anything dealing with audio, I LOVE to utilize during a game, in order to create a more immersive atmosphere.
