I became a GM because

Growing up, I was in theatre. I always had a special resonance when I not only got to read a story, but *participate* in one. The mentality of collaboratively weaving a narrative together with colorful casts of characters is the backbone of my GM'ing strategy to this day!

How Nick runs games

📖 Narrative Focused: The players are here to tell the stories of their characters—through both epic successes and challenging failures. My role is to weave these moments together, ensuring cohesion and keeping player decisions and character development at the heart of every session and overarching storyline. 🌎 Worldbuilding: I invest a lot of effort into crafting homebrew settings that feel immersive and responsive to player choices. I enjoy creating memorable locations and deep lore, but more importantly, I love incorporating elements from player characters' backstories and personal quests. Some of the most impactful RP moments come when players encounter something tied to their character’s past that they helped shape. ⚔️ Immersive Combat and Roleplaying: For me, meaningful combat and social encounters drive the most impactful narrative moments. I prefer to keep things brief and cinematic, allowing room for creative character improvisation to truly shine.
