About Jack (Of Gods and Gamemasters)

I’m a military veteran (a long time ago), a father of several wonderful children, and an amateur mythologist, poet, and philosopher. I've been playing and running games for 42 years, a partial list of which is on my home page. I’m here to run games, and make that as easy and fulfilling as possible. Wanna see what I bring to the table? https://www.ofgodsandgamemasters.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/@OfGodsandGamemasters for my written work, my voice work, and my actual plays. I can run nearly any game, and that flexibility and wide knowledge improves all my games. I build deep, intense, and well-realized worlds, but my games and stories are player and player character driven and focused. I'll be glad to work with your table to create a custom setting and adventures that are absolutely bespoke and tailored to you!

I got started GMing...

In 1982, with the Moldvay Basic Boxed Set of Dungeons and Dragons. I've been doing this a while.:)

How Jack (Of Gods and Gamemasters) runs games

I love deep RP, do a lot of voices and accents, and prefer theater of the mind with deep description, but am competent with vtts. In some cases I can really enjoy tactical combat if that's what the whole group is there for. I like deep, player and PC focused narratives that emerge primarily from player choices, but I also tend to build deep, intense, and thematically focused settings for play. Book me for a different experience than the published modules in whatever system you play.

When it comes to voices

I have a wide range of character voices and accents to make my NPCs distinct.

Jack (Of Gods and Gamemasters)'s ideal table

My ideal table is a broad mix of ethnicities, genders, and perspectives, all of whom want to take the game seriously enough for drama, but don't take themselves so seriously they can't have fun. Deep roleplay, stories based around the PCs, mood that suits the intended tone of the particular game, that's what I'm looking for.
