About me
I've been running games in every medium (tabletop, larp, and pbp) and system for 20+ years - and playing for more than 30. I have run a lot of games in a lot of systems. I have a special fondness for weird fantasy, mystery, and body horror but I can do almost anything. As I have found over the many years of being a Perma-GM. I believe strongly in Safety Tools and Session 0s (which I will never charge for). I am very much against gatekeeping, ableism, racism, transphobia, homophobia, and all such things. I am actively opposed to these ideologies. And I tend to make my bad guys agents of said 'isms and phobias. I mean... who doesn't like to punch Nazis? Outside of gaming I have degrees in Psychology, Criminology, and Marine Biology. The moment we get a dolphin serial killer I am set. I was - many pounds, injuries, and chronic illnesses ago - a competition boxer, kickboxer, and grappler. I love to read. Especially weird fantasy or sword and sorcery.
GM Style
I am primarily a Creator type GM. I love making interesting settings and creatures and magic items for my players to encounter and interact with. I love weaving in threads of dark fantasy and horror into my games but that doesn't mean my games are all grimdark. There will be jokes and light hearted moments. I like wonder as much as I do dark fantasy or horror.

Players say this GM is great at:
Inclusive
Creativity
Storytelling
We are admittedly in a pretty niche game, and that may impact thing, but things run reasonably smoothly. There have been changes to the rules in an attempt to improve things which shows an understanding of the places they fall short and the impacts of alterations to improve them. This also lends itself to an atmosphere where new people are well served. Everyone is adjusting, so you will be right at home. I imagine that even if there was no need to adjust the rules, this sort of attitude would continue, as would the familiarity with those rules. We are currently light on content as we've only had a few sessions, but the basic idea was very cool and it is building up. I think it can be a very enjoyable game.
