Storytelling
Noir Enigma has a remarkable ability to create captivating scenes and maintain an engaging pace. He crafts vivid descriptions that ensure every character is seen and heard. Additionally, he fosters a safe and inclusive environment for all players. As both a storyteller and a game master, he excels in his role. I highly recommend giving him a try. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Noir weaves an original setting within the boundaries of established canon and is able to capture your interest with all the possibilities and fun. He's brought in NPC's from backstories and created everything from "Aha!" moments to full story plot points from PC backstories. This is to say he makes each player feel like they can contribute. Sessions are a highlight of my week.
In creating a space allowing for great tales and alot of player creativity. Making for rather interesting experience. Star trek have been a series have love, and getting the opportunity to play the TTRPG has been interesting. Hitting a lot of marks from each series of trek while making it own. From the odd creatures, space oddities, intense political situations,a ethical conundrums. Where sometime left with the thoughts of terror of what could of been the right move for days when done well for the session. Top Shelf games.
First game (MMRPG) with Noir and would recommend highly. Played with a lot of GMs over my years and rarely have I come across someone that can meld/blend events into such an engaging narrative. Theatre of the Mind was definitely happening in IMAX mode while playing with Noir. All our group were new to playing with each other but Noir included everyone and mixed the action so well one would never have known we weren't an established long playing group. Can't praise them enough....
