About ReimJ
My name is ReimJ (pronounced "Rame"). Nice to meet you! I've been playing and GM'ing for a few years now and am taking the next step in my journey. I aim to run a variety of Indie TTRPG systems and learn alongside the players. I tend tend to lean towards character focused stories and follow the adage of "let the players play". I love meeting new people and bringing folks together through diving into imagined worlds, overcoming a shared challenge, and creating stories from our characters and experiences. I'm always on the lookout for new game systems, new ways to run, ways to improve, and new people to meet. I look forward to meeting you.

The three words my players would use to describe me are...
Observant, Diligent, Clear
I got started GMing...
I got started GMing when I saw a livestreamed TTRPG game on Twitch and thought it'd be fun to both play and run. So I looked for LFGs on the community discord and found a group to run for and a group to play with.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Doing handyman work with my dad, listening to sports chatter, playing & studying video games.
How ReimJ runs games
I am a GM who enjoys collaborative storytelling and character driven stories. I allow players to socialize and RP amongst themselves, even if it doesn't fit the session plan I had in mind. I enjoy creating maps and preparing visualizations and scenarios on a session-to-session basis. I aim for fun combat even if they aren't difficult or mechanically taxing. I greatly enjoy the socialization aspect of TTRPGs, so I like to meet new people and bring folks together to overcome a virtual challenge. I'm very observant and tend to be the one to take the most notes at the table. I'm experimental and always on the lookout for ways to improve and try to do something new everytime I run. I don't use and don't expect my players to use webcams.

Rules are...
Rules provide structure and act as a foundation to build off of.
My games focus on...
My games focus on player characters first and foremost. Settings and Environments are second as the characters explore and change them. Narrative is third as it is what is created by the actions of the characters. But above all that, one must always ask: are the players having fun?
I prep by
I prep by observing and listening to what the players say and do during a session. I build off of the actions the players perform.
ReimJ's ideal table
I wish to create a space where everyone feels safe and comfortable. I will ensure that everyone gets a chance to speak and a chance to do something cool through prompting. I always encourage chemistry amongst the player party. By default, I treat all speech and writing as literal. I would appreciate it for communication to be direct and straightforward and to avoid jokes and sarcasm. I expect everyone to be kind and respectful to your fellow tablemates. Do not insult, belittle, or demean them for who they are. Respect their time, boundaries, and contributions.
