About Peter Sapperlot

Hi, I’m Peter. An instigator of mirth and mischief. Are you curious about an exciting new rpg system? Do you want to explore an intriguing setting or world? The right time is now. Contact me for your custom game! I have experience running more than a dozen game systems. I am an educator and patient teacher. I have yet to reach the limits of my imagination. You don’t know the rules? I get you up to speed. You are a veteran of your favorite game system? Let’s explore new depths together. I love variety in my games. I have theory-crafted in D&D. I have crunched the numbers in Pathfinder. Over the years though, it were the rules light, narrative-focused systems that grew on me. Consequently, collaborative storytelling is the main focus of my games. As a player in my table, your ideas and choices are the clay from which our game worlds are shaped. Sapperlot Lore For the past decade, I’ve been traveling the world and teaching a joyful mishmash of subjects. Acting classes in Bishkek, Kirghistan. Politics 101 in Moscow, Russia. Scientific writing in Frankfurt, Germany. Now, I teach people their new favorite ttrpg systems. I started GMing for my high school friends many, many moons ago. A few years ago, I discovered the joy of GMing at conventions. So far, I’ve run about 50 one shot games at events of all stripes and sizes. I’ve run games in all kinds of systems. From D&D to Daggerheart. From SciFi to Eldritch Horror. Player feedback was astonishingly enthusiastic and positive. Thus, I thought to myself: I should do this more often. So here I am. When I am not GMing, I listen to music for most of my waking hours. Currently in heavy rotation are, among others, the Dire Straits; Nine Inch Nails; Florence & the Machine; and Faderhead. Things I enjoy a little too much for my own good: video games, political commentary, Magic the Gathering, chocolate. Maybe I’ll see you at my next table? Stay curious and never stop learning! Where does the name ‘Sapperlot’ come from? ‘Sapperlot’ is an old-timey German way of expressing surprise or amazement, like ‘Blimey!’ in British, or ‘Holy Smokes!’ in American English.
