About me
👋 Welcome! I’ve been running TTRPGs since the days of D&D 3rd Edition and have been hosting regular online games since 2020. I run D&D in all its flavors and a variety of other games, including Blades in the Dark, MÖRK BORG, and Forbidden Lands. 📚 About Me I’m the owner and operator of Tabletop Bookshelf, an independent online bookstore specializing in indie tabletop RPGs and solo games. Be sure to check out our social links—we’re always bringing in new titles, and I’m more than happy to share my knowledge and experiences with the collection. 🎲 My Games My games often explore themes of fantasy, horror, and post-apocalyptic worlds, but I firmly believe that laughter is essential at any gaming table. You can expect a mix of thrills, mystery, and plenty of laughs! 🙌 Inclusivity I strive to create a safe and inclusive environment where all players can feel comfortable and fully immersed in the game. This should go without saying, but bigotry of any sort will never be tolerated at my table. Certain topics
GM Style
🎭 My Philosophy I believe TTRPGs shine when characters, worldbuilding, and game mechanics collide in unexpected, exciting, and even profound ways. At the heart of it all is trust, and I work with my players to build the trust and conditions that make those big moments happen. 📜 Rules I stick close to the rules as written, but pacing is paramount for me. I avoid letting the game get bogged down in page-turning, and I'll use my experience to make quick and fair rulings that the group agrees to, keeping the game moving. For scenarios outside of the rules, I like to let the dice decide. I keep my rolls public in most cases and don’t (and can’t!) fudge the dice. ⚔️ Combat I strive to be a fair and consistent referee in combat, but I’m always ready to reward clever improvisation, giving advantages to characters who think outside the box. 🎭 Roleplay I’m comfortable slipping into various voices, whether it’s a haughty high elf or a tortle with a southern drawl, and I might even get you to laugh at one of my stupid jokes. 🗺️ Exploration & Worldbuilding I aim to create imaginative, immersive, and consistent worlds where danger is real and choices matter. My games are often supported by professional maps and illustrations to enhance the experience.
