About PoisonIveh (Ivy)
I've been playing TTRPGs since 2013, starting off with shadowrun after being introduced to a friend through steam! In october of 2014 I started having my own stories I wanted to tell that weren't just through my character, and started using TTRPGs as a medium for that. I started off writing books, and found out that isn't how campaigns work, and now design stories with plots that are able to be melded into the path the party wants to take, not the path I set out for them for the get go! I've spent the last few years learning and growing, I was DMing when Critical Roll caused a massive burst of excitement onto te scene, and managed to keep players as friends, and in one case becoming roommates with them. I build NPCs that some hate, and who many come to love for one reason or another. My games have humor, but most importantly they have suffering. And you might suffer too. But at the end of the day when you prevail, and are able to help not just yourselves but so many others? It tends to make my players feel good.

I became a GM because
It seemed like fun. And it is.
My favorite books are
A boring answer, but I love mythology more than any other stoies. I love the greek and roman pantheons, the norse gods, the hindi, and kushite deities. All of them represent an aspect of the world people thought were worth personifying.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Thinking about the next story and how I want to shape it, or playing with a pup or two! I am a dog person through and through!
How PoisonIveh (Ivy) runs games
I love roleplaying, I do voices for most of my NPCs, and do my best to have them all be slightly different. I like to make it so combat doesn't just slog on, but I also like to give some unique mechanics to creatures, so that even the most die-hard of meta-gamer won't know exactly what is coming next. I build stories with you, and want for us all to enjoy them.
