About Chris

After a long break from RPGs, i have started running a few play by post games. I now work from home 3D Printing miniatures and thought I would add DMing to my services. I have the most experience with Legend of the 5 Rings 5e, having run a couple of online campaigns in the past. Looking to really dive back into Rokugan and give players amazing adventures. I am still growing as a GM, which is why I have lower rates, but I will always ensure you have a great game!

I got started GMing...

I really wanted to play L5R and nobody would run it. So I did!

How Chris runs games

I adapt to my players. Usually in the first session I will establish what experience the players would like and I provide that. Humour or seriousness can be adjusted on the fly depending on what the players actions are.

Featured Prompts

My games focus on...

Adventure, Intrigue, mystery and Cinematic moments!

Rules are...

Generally followed, but I have been known to omit them if they have a negative effect on the narrative style of play.

Chris's ideal table

Laid back, easy going players are my vibe. A blend of humour and seriousness. Do not meme at my table, do not metagame at my table. (it breaks the immersion and that's bad for everyone) Real world issues and events have no place in our fictional worlds we create together. Don't worry, I will always provide a safe gaming space, but the idea is for us to escape reality and create amazing stories of our own!

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

opts for something cool over what would be a more sensible choice. I am all about the cinematic moments.

I think metagaming...

has no place UNLESS it is to be used to steer a character towards something cool. Discuss with me and we can see how to implement that!
