About me

Amber (they/she) is a three-time ENNIE Nominated TTRPG writer, editor, and performer with credits including Flabbergasted!, Necrobiotic, Fat Magic, and more! Let's embrace the weird, the emotional, and the silly in our games. We're allowed.

GM Style

Three Pillars of TTRPGS: Combat: 20% Roleplay: 60% Exploration: 20% I'm a GM who absolutely loves to help players get lost in telling immersive stories that can't be told anywhere else. We're here to build memories, put ourselves in the shoes of heroes, and forget about our lives outside the table for a few hours during sessions using an inclusive framework that helps everyone feel like they can safely be a TTRPG player. I encourage players to get into the minds of their characters to make decisions they normally wouldn't do in real life, all while bearing in mind the safety and comfort of those at the table. Further, I love when my players make weird, off-kilter, and interesting choices that might throw things off the rails! Give my imagination a challenge; it's more fun that way.

Amber is an amazing GM! Incredibly talented story teller who ensures everyone’s safety is well taken care of. They also ensure everyone is okay to do things as need be, if they need to step away from the table to a few moments. 🖤 I would gladly take any opportunity to sit at their table!

Imagine for a moment someone who is funny, witty, safety conscious, and wholly just a wonderful person to be around. That’s Amber. Having them at the table is an immediate green flag, having them as a GM is an automatic YES!

Amber cares deeply about the players at the table and how much fun they are having. They understand the importance of clarity and expectations, which allows for a table in which everyone knows what they can do and how to best uplift and support each other in a session. If you want to work with someone who can make you fall in love with TTRPGs all over again I highly recommend hiring them, you won't regret it!

I have been both GM’d by and played with Amber in about a dozen games. Amber is fantastic at ensuring a safe environment for all players at their table. Their story telling is rich and they allow players to have infinite creativity in their characters and in how they play. They are also always willing to hear, assist, and accommodate players during and outside of games. Last, they have a huge breadth of TTRPG knowledge beyond the standard DND 5E. Amber is a must for your table!

Amber is an excellent DM, and has a thorough understanding of the systems she DMs for. Her first priority is to ensure she fosters an inclusive environment, while making sure no one gets left behind and all are having fun (that doesn't mean the fights are simple or easy though)!
