About Damean

Hi there, I am Vironz, you can call me Vir. I have been Gming on and off for about 5 years, mostly focusing on Shadowrun. I, like most others, got my start in D&D 5th edition, and then I swiftly moved on to my favorite genre to explore, cyberpunk. I then spent about 2 years Gming Shadowrun, mainly focusing on combat spectacles and fighting. But after I stepped away from Gming i started playing in the World of Darkness, exploring gritty urban fantasy in a world that is controlled by vampires, werewolves, and mages. This is where I learned the importance of telling a story through exploration rather than through combat.

My favorite books are

While they may be problematic due to how the character rights women, i do love the incarnations of immortality books. They give a unique perspective on morals and how people might go through a heaven and hell-driven urban fantasy scifi world would be.

My favorite system of all Time is

I love Shadowrun 5e. Despite how many supplements and how crunchy the game is 5e is one of my favorites. It was the first game that i ever played and just fell in love with the world setting.

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

Either playing RPG video games by myself, enjoying a good story, or if i want to waste a day i will play some Warhammer 40k

How Damean runs games

I now prefer to focus on Roleplay and politics, encouraging my players to talk and think their way out of a difficult situation rather than fighting. But of course, if there is a fight after fucking up a conversation, I will try to make it as punishing as possible without it being impossible. But sometimes you also just need to fight to get out of a situation, and for that, I do like to make battle maps for people to look at.

I prep by

Listening to music and writing out what i would like to happen and then what i think the consequences of that are. But also i write out what happened the previous session.

My games focus on...

I make sure that i focus on character relationships to the world and the social aspects of any game that i run.

When it comes to voices

I try to add some flair and tone to it. I do my best with accents but i always slide back into my own regular voice.

Damean's ideal table

I like players who are kind to each other and do not take what happens in the game personally. If that does happen, I hope they feel comfortable coming to me and being honest with me and with each other.

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

Adds their own flair to combat and comes up with creative solutions that i never think of.

I think metagaming...

Is fine out of character to talk about, but never to influence what a character would do. Just because you know something doesn't mean your character does, act on their flaws, and act on their knowledge.

My table is not the place for...

punching down on other groups of people or jokes that punch down.
