About Pinku Pengu (Henrietta)

Hello! I started GMing about a two years ago but I have been a TTRPG player for probably 7 years, including professionally. I love a wide range of ttrpgs, and am always looking to expand the my collection of games. I love teaching people new systems, leaning on the classics, running one shots to long campaigns. But above all, I am a GM who believes in being fans of the players, balancing silly and serious in every roleplay moment, and most of all safety tools and comfort for all my players.

I became a GM because

I fell in love (while playing ttrpgs) with a forever GM and I wanted to give my partner the magical experience of being a player and shoulder the responsibility sometimes (Emily Axford and Bryan Murphy style)

When I'm not running games I'm...

Usually playing board games that range from very complicated like Twilight Imperium to stressful like Blood on the Clocktower or really goofy like Moose Master. Or you can find me mood reading books or eating every desert in front of me.

How Pinku Pengu (Henrietta) runs games

As a long term player, I have had a range of GMs both online and in person and always try to be a fan of every player and their characters. I want to be blue-screened aka whomped, but I don't believe it's the GM versus the players. I love humor but am not afraid to lean into the tragedy and angst. Some of my strong points is commitment to the bit, investment in the PCs, and deep lore. I tend to run games that are narrative focused and roleplay heavy, rules are to keep things on the rails but can be thrown away when it's fun for everyone. So many of the expectations of GMing don't make sense to me, we are here to play pretend so let's go play mermaids!

Pinku Pengu (Henrietta)'s ideal table

Players who love goofs, crying and creative solutions are always welcome at my table! Those who are invested in the world and want to make characters that have ties to the world and the story get gold star in my book! And those who want to scream in the chat while other characters are having their big moments will always have my heart. I want people who bring their culture, their sense of humor, their references and their sense of self to every character and I promise to honor them as they are and help them on their heroes journey.

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table

Romance! If you want to romance PC's, NPC's or even the big bag than I am you're Game Master! I love the cringey pick up lines, the awkward first loves, swoonworthy romantic scenes, and of course flirting with our friends!

My table is not the place for...

Those who enjoy fantasy racism and want to reinforce sterotypes from the cultures that fantasy is often appropriated from. Goblins can be silly and sweet, monks can be emotive and talkative, and we will not use our escapism to make others feel unsafe.
