I got started GMing...
I got started as a GM along side getting started as a player. I started playing, and soon after GMing D&D, while also homebrewing my own worlds, adventures, systems, etc. I got hooked immediately and went full force. Years later, I now do it as a career.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Usually prepping, playing, or writing. This is what I do full time, I love it, and I give it my full attention.
How Sov runs games
I enjoy more serious and otherwise dark narratives, but I also enjoy heroism and goofy campaigns. I primarily run custom settings/campaigns. Writing is where my love and inspiration for TTRPGs live. I use role-playing to invest players in their characters and characters in the world. I love filling my worlds with complex NPCs, who become more intriguing the more time you spend with them. Adapting, reacting, and curtailing stories to players on the fly makes me feel like a player at the table, while making the world around the players feel alive. I am a strong believer that consequences have actions. I try to earnestly think of how the world would react, and don't handout results for free, nor do I put in obstacles if my players have executed a well thought out plan. I like to do voices and accents. I tend to lean hard into role-playing, whether as a player or a GM. I am also always open to custom campaign requests and homebrew world settings. Feel free to reach out.

My games focus on...
Role playing and story telling. I love combat, but I lean heavily into story telling, world building and RP.
Sov's ideal table
Deep RP. I appreciate players who get into their character, into the player party, into the NPCs of the world, and into exploring the world around them. Players with a focus on collaborative storytelling vibe well at my tables.

I love it when a player
Get invested with their fellow player characters. I love when players care about each other. Getting involved, while also leaving room for others to have their moments.
My table is not the place for...
Chaos for chaos sake. I don't mind the alignment conceptually, but find it often doesn't work well at my tables. I don't generally run casual/silly campaigns, so wild-cards often become unintentionally disruptive.
