About me

Hey everyone. I am a storyteller, actor and scholar of folklore looking to create an epic world based on African Diasporic mythologies. I come to you as an enthusiastic role player and dedicated Guide under the Quest system. I focus much of my time on the creation of deeply interconnected lore as well as exciting combat scenes.

GM Style

My style is dramatic and grounded in my experiences as a screenwriter and actor. My narration is often descriptive and vivid, alternating between the poetic and the everyday. I take special care in the creation and expansion of my world and the lore within. My background as a scholar of Afro-Diasporic folklore means that I draw much of my inspiration from Afro-Caribbean and Afro-American mythologies. Expect to see soucouyants, jumbies and haints riddled through the mythic landscape of the world. I empower my players to make their characters have a true and lasting effect on the world through their actions and the decisions they make both in and out of game.
