About Adam

Here to play games. TTRPG games to be specific. Started out with D&D 5e a few years back as a player and got hooked. Ran a few one-shots before doing the whole LMoP/DoIP beginner's campaign as a GM. I've tried, and picked up a few other game systems along the way, Mörk Borg, Symbaroum, and Alien are some favourites. I like to think I've an open OSR style of GMing, preferring rulings over rules - I pick and choose from greater minds to try and become a better player and GM.

How Adam runs games

You want do what? OK, tell me how. Let's roll... I like tactical combat, I'll try to set the scene and give info as required that might make or break the party's plans. Ask, and if it's reasonable and makes sense ye shall (maybe) receive. Players RPing is always great fun, I won't always ask for checks - sometimes you'll always succeed and sometimes you'll always fail. I like to give options though, use your INT for that instead of WIS. The best games are when everyone's the storyteller and supporting the narrative of each other's characters.
