About RollingDeadly

Yearning for adventure and immersive storytelling? Then I'm your GM! 8"2, 123-year-old, educated greenskin with a strong British accent. Best Ork GM on the internet, 8 years running! I have a background in theatre and wargames, so expect lots of over the top roleplay and lots of intense combat! I LOVE running games, and I've been teaching people how to play TTRPG's for close to a decade, as I believe a good first experience is crucial to hook people into the space, so I place enormous emphasis on open communication and having a good time above all else. Of course, this means new players are more than welcome at all my games! I run low-fantasy, gritty adventures and campaigns, often in original homebrew settings. I think a low fantasy setting makes the magic feel weird and truly special, while a grittier world adds more tension and drama, and who would not want that! I am flexible, adapt to my player's needs and put great effort in my games. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or hop in the discord! (Link below) https://discord.gg/TWDfVUBeqR

I got started GMing...

Long after I was already really into war gaming. Really mind blowing for a theater kid that there was more to it than just strategy and large scale battles!

My favorite shows/movies are

I mean the Lord of the Rings trilogy is a cinematic masterpiece and by far my favorite set of movies, but Snatch trails it as my second!

People are always surprised when I tell them

That I work in fine art! Baroque paintings, sculptures, west african metallurgy, taxidermy, etc... Might be one of the few people who's actual job is barely less bizarre than being a professional GM!

I deal with rules issues by...

Arbitrating on the spot, quite literally the whole point of a GM. As far as I'm concerned, its the GM's job to know the rules and the player's job to have fun! Any issues pop-up, always side with what is either coolest or most dramatically convenient! It can always be double-checked later!

I prep by

Organizing everything to the most minute detail, so that everything is ready. Is everything going to be used? Probably not. Are players going to do things I could have never prepared for? Certainly. But having everything ready allows me to focus on anything I might need to improv!

When it comes to voices

I'll admit, you'll hear quite a few heavy London accents in my games, but variety's the spice of life and speaking 3 languages fluently does help in that department!

RollingDeadly's ideal table

I try to foster a very specific feeling around my tables, which is the "Friday night game night at a friend's house". You might not know everyone at first, but you have a good time nonetheless, and as the game nights keep on going, so does the vibe and friendships improve around the table, from acquaintances, to fast friends you want to see again next Friday!

I am for a vibe that's...

Relaxed, but focused on the game! I want the vibe to be "Gaming with your friends on a Friday night". Everyone's into it, having a good time via their investment!
