My favorite books are

99.99% of the time it is different TTRPGs. I like collecting different mechanics from various games.

My favorite system of all Time is

FUDGE. When making a good FUDGE system, it is easy to understand for people who don't even know anything about TTRPGs. It is a toolbox though, so have fun creating your system.

How Woden runs games

📚 Experienced & Versatile Over the years I have learned many GMing styles from various learning sources. I can adapt to most player styles and see it as a challenge to make my games as satisfying and fun to play as possible. 📬 Play by Post These days I am exclusively a PbP GM. I am available most of the time during the day and if you are able I can usually post multiple times a day. I can do solo or group. 🛜 Ways to play I mostly work with discord, but I am open to just about anywhere you want to play. Like one of those PbP forum websites or maybe FoundryVTT stays open and we use chat in there.

My games focus on...

Collaborative storytelling. I love it when my players suggest something to happen or pretty much anything else. Never be afraid to ask or suggest, chances are fairly good that I well accept and use it if it fits the story.

Woden's ideal table

🪑I love when players feel comfortable enough to give suggestions on what they want to see. For me this is a collaborative hobby and I have fun adapting player ideas to the game.

I think metagaming...

Is totally fine, it is part game after all. To me if you don't want "metagaming", go play an improv rpg.

I think min/maxing...

Is a waste of time. This is tabletop roleplaying, not a video game. In the old days when it was more like a board game, it was a quality trait, but these days it is just poor quality rp.

My perfect party mix is

When everyone throws the idea of a "balanced party" out the window. I am a GM, it is fun for me to think of adventures that will fit the current party, not some idealized generic set.
