About Rob

Hello! I've been a Game Master for almost 20 years. I like running games with a focus on roleplay. My objective is to make everyone comfortable at the table so that they feel open to roleplaying with one another. Shared storytelling is the objective, and we'll work together to craft satisfying narratives.

I became a GM because

I became a GM because I was the only one in my friend group who was willing to learn the rules. I stayed a GM because I had a natural talent for it. Brining people together around the table and seeing the story that we develop together is one of life's true joys.

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

Evil. Nefarious. Tricky. It's said lovingly (well, I hope that it's said lovingly). I love it when players tell stories, and I love reacting to what players bring to the table. Does that mean I sometimes get a little devious? Well, I like to have fun too. But I focus on maintaining player's fun.

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

Running, watching movies, playing video games, reading, snowboarding. I love getting out in nature and let that influence the way I run games. My best ideas come to me when I'm running.

How Rob runs games

I focus on role-play and story. I like integrating Player Character's history into the story to create a bespoke experience around player choices. I don't like railroading the party or taking over. I run everything from narrative stories that focus on roleplay, to exploration adventures, and challenging tactical combat.
