About me

So, a bit about me. I'm a TTRPG content creator and GM. I have played many different games over the last 41 years and been a GM almost as long. I have always enjoyed story driven games and strive to include that in the games I run. I enjoy a mix of RP and tactical but can adapt based on the group. I run inclusive games where everyone is welcome. I'm newcomer friendly and am more than happy and willing to teach the game to somebody who has never played before. Safety tools are important to me as I want everybody to have a good time and a safe place to play.

GM Style

I strive for a mix of roleplay, exploration, and combat. I like story driven campaigns that get every player involved. I especially like to run fun, inclusive, safe games where everyone feels welcome. I try to create vibrant, living worlds with complex NPC's and incorporating PC backgrounds for a fun, shared experience. I'm comfortable running games in different genres. From fantasy to modern to sci-fi; I love all of it. I'm also happy to host all different levels of players; from complete beginners to experienced gamers.

Great Shadowrun GM - he helps teach, lead, and works well with characters who are creative and veer off script. I strongly recommend him.

Gord is a fantastic GM. I have had three sessions with him so far but am eagerly anticipating more! I am currently in a Call of Cthulhu campaign with him set in the 1920s, and the level of detail provided by Gord is nothing short of impressive. Beyond just creating an immersive, exciting and entertaining game, Gord is also extremely helpful when it comes to teaching the system. I am new to CoC and Gord expertly helped me navigate character creation, and has been a patient and understanding guide as I learn the rules. For new players to a system I cannot recommend Gord enough, you will thoroughly enjoy yourself. For veteran TTRPG players you will also get exactly what you need from Gord with his level of detail, mastery of the system and plenty of room to really explore the role play components of any game. I cannot recommend Gord highly enough.

Excellent GM. I have had many adventures with Gord into my descent of madness. I've played his Call of Cthulhu scenarios and I would highly recommend! Fun Times. Knows the rules. He is really able to set the stage and let you roleplay. What are you waiting for?! Jump in!

I did a Call of Cthulhu campaign with Gord and he is a really good guy, he is kind, patient, and willing to let players have creative reign. He is knowledgeable and passionate and creates a safe and fun environment for new and seasoned players alike.
