My favorite books are
I'll answer in two parts, favorite TTRPG books I would say, World of Greyhawk Boxed Set, Cyberpunk 2020 Land of the Free, and Obojima :Tales from the Tall Grass, but non TTRPG books, Orwell's 1984, One Piece, and Hellboy.
My favorite shows/movies are
My most treasured shows and movies as a ambitious young filmmaker are the ones I find most impactful, One Piece, Bobs Burgers, and Adventure Time are my comfort shows and when it comes to film, I love so many but it boils down to The Breakfast Club, Anything Wes Anderson, and Amelie
When I'm not running games I'm...
continuing to pass the torch of the human spirit as a storyteller and give people the worlds that inspire them to be their greatest selves. I hope to take people on journey's of the mind and imagination and end up in places where they can feel like heroes, villains, ghouls, or gods. Let's roll dice.
How Alex runs games
I am a wild card and I value creativity and engagement over everything. I love lore deeply and put it above mechanics and rules most times but I am viciously seeking to get better at power gaming and learning the meta to really give high and low level play major depth and challenge.

I prep by
Mindmapping and Writing my own modules as well as creating hyperlinks for fast recall and practicing improv games or brain teasers.
My games focus on...
Storytelling and Player experience
When it comes to voices
I may not have the most vast catalogue yet but I am always working on them. I get better as I get more comfortable with a group.
Alex's ideal table
My table is chill and constructive. It's a collaborative place even if there are odds at stake. We are at the table to build a cool story and so I stick to the Rule of Cool and hold the narrative most important. That's not to say I don't dabble in the metagame and enjoy the challenge of a power gamer at my table it just means the way we keep order in the chaos is by working TOGETHER.
