About Babis

Hello adventurers and heroes, nice to meet you! I'm Babis, a game master from Greece, and I'm working for the last 15 years in the gaming industry as a board game designer/developer and an RPG game master and writer. I'm passionate with storytelling, and epic moments of tragedy and drama, but I do so love some hardcore moments of tireless dungeon-delving in some forgotten ruins. My favorite games are Dungeons & Dragons, Savage Worlds: Deadlands, and of course Vampire: the Masquerade - a personal favorite of mine. I've been playing RPGs for 30 years, and I've been storytelling for the last 20 of them. So let's play together! Let's tell some stories! And live on the moments you want to experience, tailored to your preferences and needs!

People are always surprised when I tell them

I'd rather drop dead than stop playing Vampire: the Masquerade (oh wait!)

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

creative, resourceful, and player-focused!

When I'm not running games I'm...

designing board games or playing video games!

How Babis runs games

First and foremost, I want you to have fun! I'm here to set up your character's story, with its intense experiences and memorable moments. I will provide you exciting balanced roleplay moments, tailored to your needs. Do you enjoy intrigue? Combat? or perhaps the thrill of discovering the unknown? Or even all of them together? I will provide them for you. Don't worry if you're a beginner, or have a minor grasp of the rules. I'm here to guide you through, and have you enjoy the roleplaying moments in your story regardless of your own experience of roleplaying level. Think about your hero, have the willingness to explore their inner reccesses of their character, and I will provide the rest: setting, hook, and a detailed overarching arc.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

Tim Burton!

My games focus on...

the player characters' stories

Rules are...

mere "observers" when an awesome scene takes place!

Babis's ideal table

My tables are a hearth for storytelling -a place where players gather to weave immersive, emotionally resonant narratives together. I strive to create a space where we don’t just play characters, but truly feel the story as it unfolds. Whether it's laughter, tension, or quiet moments of reflection, we experience it all as a group. At my table, players who enjoy character-driven stories, collaborative worldbuilding, and a deep emotional connection to the narrative will feel right at home. We play as friends and companions -but above all, as empathetic human beings who respect each other's contributions and boundaries.

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

weave their own stories and background plots into the session.

I think it's a red flag when players...

offend and treat others in a vulgar way just for the sake of roleplaying.

My table is not the place for...

power gamers.
