About me

Hi, I'm Szopen! Over 25+ years I have witnessed and gladly embraced the evolution of our hobby. At my table you will have the opportuninty to take active part in telling the story, adding elements to our world and shaping the events that happen during the games. I like to give as much agency as players and PCs want, so that even prewritten adventures can change and evolve. We collaboratively create the fiction. My favourite popular GM is Brennan Lee Mulligan and I agree with everything I've heard or read from The Alexandrian My 6 recent systems: - D&D 5e - Year Zero Engine (specifically indie ttrpg about being a dragon rider that's about to be translated to english somwhere 2026) - FATE accelerated - Mage the Ascension (old World of Darkness) - City of Mist (and its successor Otherscape) - Daggerheart I've played and ran tons of other systems so if you're interested in something specific - text me!

GM Style

My sessions have cinematic descriptions and action. I think of them like of an action adventure TV series or movie. The main focus is creating an interesting story, to achieve this I often have meta conversations to engineer some interesting coincidences for our characters. PCs are the stars. The story is about them and any quests are merely a background. That being said I don't ignore the rules. I embrace the rule of cool by changing the game in a transparent way. To keep it fair across the table and honour the social contract I add cost and reward. There's almost nothing that you can't do at my table. The question is what are you willing to sacrifice?
