I got started GMing...

After finding no GM's in my friend group that had room for one more player I became a GM and started my own group.

My favorite system of all Time is

Call of Cthulhu.

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

I'm a senior information technology technician at a production facility in NE Tennessee.

How Brian runs games

I provide a world of dangerous situations that can only be overcome by heroes. I allow for players to come up with creative solutions and make calls on these solutions with an unbiased mind. I feel that the GM/DM is as much a player as the players themselves. I celebrate with my players on their triumphs and mourn the fall of a comrade. I use accents and have a wonderful voice that I use for Gnome NPC's. I enjoy role playing to a fault. So be prepare to face foes that think and look to exploit the heroes' weaknesses.

Featured Prompts

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

It would be a toss up between M. Night Shyamalan and Peter Jackson.

My favorite trope is...

McGuffins. I love sending players on quests that will bring glory, honor, wealth, and power to all participants.

Rules are...

To me, rules are guidelines and can be bent to the will of both players and DM. I subscribe to the Rule of Cool.

Brian's ideal table

I like players who are there to have fun. I want players who can work together as a team and be willing to allow everyone to have a good time.
