About Tory Kara

Hi everyone, I'm Tory. I've been an avid TTRPG player and GM for over 8 years now. I love crafting worlds and creating cool stories with fun people, and I always want to help more people get into playing. I do my best to create a gaming space where everyone feels safe and welcome. As a trans woman whose experience with RPGs helped me explore myself, giving my players (of any background) space to do the same if needed, and to just be comfortable and respected is super important to me. As long as you're kind, considerate, and want to play as a team, you're welcome at my "table." Games I can run: - D&D 5e (most experienced) - Star Wars 5e - Daggerheart - Call of Cthulhu - Alien RPG - Fallout RPG - Dishonored RPG - The Witcher RPG

When I'm not running games I'm...

Spending time with my partner, playing lots of video games, watching Critical Role or Dimension 20, being a player in TTRPGs run by friends (as a forever GM, not often enough).

How Tory Kara runs games

I love fun roleplay, mystery, intrigue, exploration, intense combat, and the occasional puzzle. I try to make my games a mix of all those elements so every type of player has fun and finds something to engage with. I try to say yes whenever a player proposes something and allow for awesome memorable moments, allowing for rule of cool to take precedence (within reason). In ongoing campaigns, I try to create character arcs for each PC, sometimes connecting character backstories to the main plot in ways players might not expect. I love homebrewing and coming up with enemies and encounters that surprise my players.
