About Nyx!

🎲 GM of 15+ years 🎲 🏳️‍⚧️ They/Them 🏳️‍⚧️ 🐸 Neurodivergent 🐸 🎭 Professional Actor/VA 🎭 Hi friends! My name is Nyx! I'm a nonbinary, autistic, queer artist dedicated to telling inclusive fantasy stories with like-minded folks. I pride myself in running a wide variety of systems. My favorite games are all fiction-first, and I've been leaning more rules-lite as I grow, but I love a good crunchy adventure path as well! Regardless of if I'm running homebrew or published content, it will always be tailored to you. Open to private games! Please DM me if interested. If you see it listed on my profile, consider it among my genuine offerings. Most commonly run games are Pathfinder2e and Fabula Ultima, but happy to run any of what's listed! ⛔ Proudly AI/art theft free. ⛔ 🔹 Part of the official ProjectFU team working to bring Fabula Ultima to FoundryVTT. 🔹 I hope to see you at my table!

I became a GM because

I grew up watching my dad and his friends play Dungeons and Dragons every weekend. I was my dad's "Lucky Dice Roller" and fell in love with the worlds he and his friends would create.

My favorite system of all Time is

Fabula Ultima! I think it's the perfect blend of collaboration, mechanical accessibility (while still holding depth for those who like it,) and fiction first gameplay. I grew up on JRPGs, and one of my biggest dreams is to take FabU to an Actual Play stage!

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Collaborative, Communicative, Professional

How Nyx! runs games

🎭Professional Actor 🎭 📖 Collaborative Storytelling 📖 🛡️ Safety First🛡️ 🛡️ Collaboration, Communication, and Consent. The best stories are the ones told together, with intent, and I prioritize these three traits above all else in my games. You are wanted, you are welcomed, and you are safe. 🤓 I am incredibly comfortable with all of the systems I run, and I ensure you that mechanics will never get in the way of creating an awesome experience, together. I promise intriguing mysteries, engaging combats, and a collaboration unlike any you've experienced. 🗺️ A fully immersive VTT with custom scenes and curated soundscapes to pull you into the worlds we build together. 🎭 My experience as an actor brings high caliber characters and voice acting to my games, while my professional experience as an intimacy coordinator ensures that all are cared for at my table. With over a decade of communal storytelling, I can't wait to tell the next story - with you!

I deal with rules issues by...

Making a quick judgment call at the table if the rule is uncertain, then clarifying my position immediately after session and letting the table know how I'll adjudicate on the issue moving forward. TLDR; Keep the game moving!

My games focus on...

Creating a story, together. Your input at the table is the most valuable tool in my disposal to weave something we both love and want to keep coming back to.

When it comes to voices

I'm a professional voice actor! My favorite role was as a Jonathan Van Ness inspired caterpillar, and my favorite line (same character btw) was EAGLE SCREECHING SOUNDS.

Nyx!'s ideal table

Players who are willing to collaborate and communicate with all involved will fit right at home at my table. My goal is always to foster a safe, accepting environment where we can tap into our inner child and play. I'm here to help you tell a story that will live on far beyond our time at the table. Comfortably capable of running rules-dense crunch as easily as I am rules-lite narratives. Will happily find the right balance for each group and regularly check in and communicate to ensure every player is having a great time!

I love it when a player

Brings a novel idea to my world, catching me off guard and challenging me to adapt the narrative on the fly! Some of the best stories at the table are the ones I had zero prep time for. Thanks, Fabula Points!
