About Spencer LoSchiavo

I have GMed a campaign for 4 years! That campaign involved Time Travel (to a cyberpunk future and a dinosaur filled past), a session where we went inside a demon-possessed King’s Mind, and did a coliseum fight with zombies! I love the juicy character moments and creative puzzles as well.

I got started GMing...

...with an idea: a new take on the "Treacherous Advisor" trope. The only trick was getting players. However, after "Stranger Things" made TTRPGs popular, I soon gained a faithful group of players who I've GMed for almost 4 years.

My favorite shows/movies are

My favorite shows are Avatar: The Last Airbender, Dexter, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Scavengers Reign, and Madoka Magica. My favorite movies are Hook, Blade Runner, Midnight in Paris, Lost in Translation, and Love Letter.

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Versatile. Witty. Cinematic.

How Spencer LoSchiavo runs games

In my games, you can expect a strong focus on roleplay and character-driven storytelling alongside memorable set-piece encounters. I love giving players big, cinematic moments—whether that’s unraveling a villain’s psyche, navigating strange timelines, or making hard choices that shape the world. Combat is purposeful and often high-stakes, but never just filler; I enjoy making fights feel meaningful and creative rather than purely tactical. You’ll also find inventive puzzles, unusual settings, and plenty of room for player ideas to influence the story.

Spencer LoSchiavo's ideal table

My table puts a lot of focus on storytelling and roleplay. We embrace the silliness that comes with fantasy settings and playing pretend, but we also take our characters seriously. You will not have the same type of session more than once. Rules Lawyers need not apply :-).
