About Gus
I'm a theater kid with a big gaming nerd streak and a love for sci-fi. I love really getting to know people and I think gaming is one of the best ways to do that. I love making people feel at-ease and welcome and always try to make others laugh. I like to collaborate with my players so that they have a fun and have an experience that they will remember. I like immersing players with custom music, visuals, and descriptions that make the world feel real. I work really hard to make sure that my everyone has a fun time and leaves excited to play again.

How Gus runs games
In short: I'm a narrative and role-play focused GM that wants to make sure my players get what they want out of the game. You can expect a welcoming comfortable environment filled with laughter, goofiness, and dramatic moments, and intense action. I want to make sure everyone is having fun and that you're immersed in the world that your playing in. I love roleplay and do my best to make sure each NPC is memorable using different voices and speaking patterns. I make sure each player at the table has the time and space to shine. I'm not a huge fan of crunchy tactical games, but love a good story that makes us take a look at our own selves.

When it comes to voices
I try my best to add unique voices to each NPC, I try to not rely solely on accents, I add different personalities, speech patterns, and timbre to make each NPC as unique as possible
Gus's ideal table
My table is casual, filled with laughter as well as deep character moments. Players that love to roleplay and dive deep into their characters fit well. I welcome all new players in the hope that they find this hobby as wonderful as I have.
Featured Prompts
I love it when a player
Is really into roleplaying their character and immersing themselves in the world. I also LOVE it when players are creative in their problem solving and doing things I would have never anticipated.
I think metagaming...
Is unavoidable, but would hope my players try to minimize it. I think it can remove opportunities for good PC moments
My table is not the place for...
Discrimination of any kind. Bigotry is unwelcome, not tolerated and a quick way to get kicked out F***ing asap. Also creeps, don't creep on other players. Let others feel safe and have fun without worrying about creeps.
