About Alexander

I’m a family man, a gamer, a cook, and a writer at heart. I spend a lot of my time balancing work, family life, and the things I love, especially stories in all their forms. I enjoy video games, good food, and getting lost in books, shows, and ideas that stick with me. I’m someone who values connection, creativity, and making space for people to feel comfortable being themselves. Storytelling is a big part of my life, but more than anything, I just enjoy sharing experiences with people and building something meaningful together.

When I'm not running games I'm...

When I’m not running games, I’m spending time with my family, playing video games, cooking, or working on stories. I’ve always been drawn to storytelling, whether at the table or on the page, and a lot of what I do outside of games feeds back into the worlds I build.

How Alexander runs games

As a Game Master, my favorite thing is watching my players shine and feel like epic heroes from beginning to end. I started with Scion, and with a background in folklore, I’m drawn to stories of mortals striving for something greater, whether that means challenging fate, defying gods, or becoming something more. I focus on roleplay and cinematic, descriptive combat, leaning toward rule of cool over heavy mechanics. My strength is in worldbuilding, creating immersive settings, cultures, and conflicts that players can explore and shape through their choices.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

If my games were movies, they’d be directed by Zack Snyder, cinematic, epic, and focused on powerful character moments.

My favorite trope is...

My favorite trope is mortals rising into something greater through defiance, devotion, and the choices that shape them, their fates, and their world.

Rules are...

Rules are a foundation for the game, but not a limitation. I lean toward rule of cool over strict number crunching, using the system to support the story rather than restrict it.

Alexander's ideal table

My ideal table is made up of players who enjoy storytelling as much as I do, people who want to build characters, connect with one another, and create meaningful moments together. I especially enjoy respectful, friendly, and story driven roleplay between players, where everyone contributes to a shared story.

I think min/maxing...

I think min maxing is interesting, but I focus more on story than mechanics. I want characters to feel powerful through their choices and growth, not just optimized builds. My table values balance, shared spotlight, and collaboration over “main character” play.

My table is not the place for...

My table is not a place for disrespect, spotlight hogging, or play that takes away from others’ enjoyment. I value collaboration, shared moments, and making sure everyone has space to be part of the story.
