About me

Here's my discord server: https://discord.gg/2eR5xrqwh5 Hi there! My name is Sable, I'm a passionate storyteller and professional GM with 4 years of experience running VTTRPGs on FoundryVTT, and 8 years overall running VTTRPGs (mostly Storyteller System games like V:tM/H:tR, Dungeons and Dragons 5e, and Powered By the Apocalypse based games like Monster of the Week). I’m always seeking players to share this incredible art form with, creating experiences that are not only narrative-driven but also immersive in both sight and sound - FoundryVTT is on the cutting edge when it comes to this approach, and I'm always excited to find new ways to push the limits of what's possible with the software.

GM Style

I have a focus on visual and audio immersion, with every adventure set up with specific art direction in mind, inviting you to truly lose yourself in the story we create together. I am also an expert user of Foundry VTT, and I am happy to help my players learn how to get the most out of the software.

Sable is a phenomenal ST, well and truly. In general runs a great game that incorporates players ideas and actions into incredibly well-written stories, but the effort they go through for visual aids, foundry integration, battle maps, sound effects, and more puts them in a league of their own. If you have the chance to get into one of their games, buddy, you're losing if you don't jump in. They're also incredibly accommodating every step of the way.

Playing with Sable has, in some ways, spoiled all other table top RPG experiences for me. Their attention to detail, investment in characters and stories, and passion for creating immersive settings makes their games absolutely top tier. As a GM, Sable is so kind, knowledgeable, and fun, and is committed to creating a space where everyone is welcome. Their games include balance of rich story telling and exciting combat mechanics. They are so great to work with, especially if you have a passion for creating characters with a rich backstory - it is always a treat to see how they can weave your ideas into the greater fabric of the setting you're playing in! I cannot recommend Sable's games enough.

I've been playing with Sable for years, and I'm so happy that others have the chance to play with them! Sable is a great DM because of their flexibility. On the one hand, their knowledge of TTRPG systems enables a challenging dungeon crawl that's often left me on the edge of my seat as my turn for combat approaches. On the other hand, their appreciation for story and character cultivate dynamic worlds that I love getting lost in. They have great technical skills to create an immersive audio-visual experience. Using Foundry VTT, they really bring these worlds to life by mixing maps, effects, shadows, stage design, and soundscapes. I've often forgotten that I'm playing a TTRPG and not Baldurs Gate. I think Sable is a great DM for new players or those learning new systems and for experienced players looking for a DM to challenge them mechanically and narratively.

I’ve been spoiled to have Sable as a GM for multiple campaigns. They put so much work into the story they’re crafting — using musical queues, sounds effects, and visuals to amplify the experience. It’s cool to see everything that can be done with gaming moving from the table to the web and as a GM Sable knows how to get the most out of the medium. They have a great rapport with all their players and I can’t wait to keep making more memories wherever the story takes me.
