About Aidan

I am a night owl that has loved playing TTRPGs for nearly a decade. Like many others, my first few years were with D&D 5E, but recently I've been consistently playing Pathfinder 2E. I've been a Game Master for several years, and I have run several games both online and in person.

I became a GM because

My dad wanted me to learn the rules better, but I think he just didn't feel like being the GM.

How Aidan runs games

For roleplay, I like to run intrigue and investigation. I want my players to be a part of a story bigger than themselves, where their actions have consequences, both good and bad. For combat, I like to run a tactical, fast paced, not always easy encounter. I want my players to use the environment to their advantage, where teamwork can stack the odds in the party's favor. For exploration, I like to run a more open sandbox world filled with puzzles to solve. I want my players to journey into the old and forgotten parts of the realm, where gold and glory awaits.

Rules are...

Very important. Fun is also important, yes, but the balance of the game is maintained by the rules of the given system.

Aidan's ideal table

My ideal group is anyone who wants to have fun playing TTRPGs.

I think min/maxing...

Can be a fun thought experiment, but the best form of min mixing is team work with fellow players.
