About thecarrotclarinet // Matteo
I have been playing TTRPGs for almost a decade and have been active as a GM for about seven years. New to professional GMing. I have a wide experience of a variety of games and settings and pride myself in my ability in quick improvisations and large scale collaborative storytelling with a great focus on player's wishes and input.

How thecarrotclarinet // Matteo runs games
I'd say my focus is on improvisation and narrative with an emphasis on the surreal and consequential. I enjoy creating strong ties between Player Characters and making the player's choices feel impactful throughout a short or long-play format. I mostly engage with theatre of the mind but I am no stranger to using tactical battlemaps or high combat games. In combat I make sure to always put the surrounding environment of the combat stage and how character's actions impact that environment. I thoroughly enjoy worldbuilding and engaging with already existing worlds and how the world interacts with the characters. My NPCs tend to be layered, deep and fun to engage with, leaving the characters with memorable characters they want to engage with. I'm also a big fan of anything horror related and enjoy giving players a good idea of the visceral or terrifying things their characters are going through. I am by no means limited to just one genre though and enjoy a variety of games and settings, and I am able to imitate the authorial voice of any game I GM successfully.
