About me

Hello, fellow adventurers! I'm a dedicated game master with a rich history of 20 years guiding players through enchanting realms and epic storylines. At 35 years young, my journey in the world of gaming has been fueled by a deep passion for fantasy and an academic background in game design. My expertise lies in crafting immersive experiences that not only captivate but also engage the senses through stunning visuals and captivating soundscapes. I specialize in fantasy settings, where magic knows no bounds and every session is an opportunity to explore new horizons. Whether you're a seasoned player or new to the realm of tabletop gaming, I'm here to ensure your adventure is unforgettable. Let's create legendary tales together!"

GM Style

My GM style marries the shadowy depths of a grimdark universe with a story-first, player-driven approach, ensuring each session unfolds as a dramatic narrative shaped by the adventurers themselves. At the core of my games is the belief that even in the darkest tales, fun and camaraderie should shine through, creating a unique blend of intense storytelling and engaging play. This philosophy fosters a dynamic environment where every decision impacts the story, and laughter can be found amidst the gravest dangers, inviting players to immerse themselves fully in a world where their actions weave the very fabric of their epic saga.

Timmy, or Grim, is a great gamemaster! I played with him years ago and he was great! And now I've played with him recently, and he's even better! Tim creates a truly immersive experience with music, soundscapes, and wonderful acting. He is great at keeping the pace of adventures fun and exciting. Grim knows what he's doing, and having fun at it too.

He's a good GM, he balances time very well and keeps things moving, while always being open to player input. He's great with voices and really gets the themes and setting of WFRP.

Playing with grim as a GM is like being a part of a really good movie. His creative ideas to get everyone involved in the story sometimes feels like one of those movies like Fightclub. You don't know exactly what part you're playing in this game until the puzzles unravel and suddenly all the unanswered questions from the previous games make sense and you just wonder how you missed all the signs.

Grim is a gm that Is the literal epitome of the dark souls experience. Fair, balanced, and yet brutal. You feel like you just survived climbing out of the jaws of a beast after each battle. Each non combat session feels like all your usually useless talents and skills are useful.
