About Lou
My name is Lou (or the Pink GM) I've been playing TTRPGs since I was 11, and Dming them myself since I was 12! My favourite TTRPG is Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition. However, I have lots of experience with many other tabletops, including Pathfinder, Vampire: The Masquerade, and have started to tip my toes into running Daggerheart as well! My main focus as a DM and member of the community is on making the game as inviting, inclusive, and accessible as possible - I always want my table to be safe, comfortable and fun for anyone no matter who they are or their experience. Most of my games take place in my world of Mornvahl, a wacky infinite salt plane where the planets you play on are walking creatures pacing eternally across the flats. The ocean is also in the sky, because that's cool AF.

I became a GM because
I love telling stories with people. I love collaborating on a single, cohesive plot line with others and working together to create something engaging, dramatic, fun, and overall that feels *real*.
I got started GMing...
In school, actually! Entirely system agnostic, or rather we invented our own system. Just me, like 12 other kids, and a D20 that we would roll to determine our outcomes. No character sheets, no math just pure unmonitored adolescent chaos. It was fantastic! The rest is history after that 🤭
The three words my players would use to describe me are...
I asked them! This is what I got back: Creative, passionate and enthusiastic Committed, passionate, whimsical... Definitely whimsical... put that first
How Lou runs games
I love roleplay and player-led storytelling. I'm the kind of GM who will ask you for your entire family tree and give you the reins to design your home town so that when your party visits, you *do* know it like the back of your hand, because you helped design it! I love Exploration as well, and enjoy taking my party through deep woodlands or unexplored swamps to uncover hidden treasures you never knew were there!

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...
Guillermo del Toro! His work is frequently super high fantasy with huge, messy character-driven storylines that fit me perfectly!
Lou's ideal table
I love my games to be player-led. I love hearing input and thoughts from my party and essentially just building the sandbox for them to run around in. I enjoy heavy roleplay moments, with an emphasis on story-driven combat! Its probably worth mentioning my table has zero AI in it. If that's your cup of tea, I won't be the right fit for you.
