I became a GM because

I didn't know anyone else who would! I grew up doing theatre, improv, and music so I quickly fell in love with being a GM

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

How Xavier runs games

I aim for a balance between engaging role play, thrilling/dangerous encounters, and meaningful downtime, giving everyone a chance to shine. I offer a free session 0 and enjoy working collaboratively to build backstories that enrich the game. My games are ran on Roll20 for character sheets and visuals in tandem with Discord for the chat and community!

I deal with rules issues by...

Discussing over the table and deciding on the most fair un-broken thing. Rule of cool is allowed and many rule discretions and grey areas are left to the dice.

I prep by

Sometimes I write pages and pages. Other times I wing it off of a sticky note and a red bull

Xavier's ideal table

I welcome players of all different backgrounds! I aim to have a warm and accepting environment where everyone feels welcome and seen. I do my best to give everyone the space and time they need to speak, as discord calls can be a different dynamic than in person games. The goal is for everyone to get along and form a little family; so be warned if we like you there may be some friendly banter and razzing!

collaborative storytelling.

I think metagaming...

is sometimes unavoidable when it comes to combat strategy and the nitty gritty. However, we all are here to tell a story so in regards to key plot and events metagaming is a no no

I think min/maxing...

is totally acceptable. Who doesn't want to play a powerful character? Just be prepared to be evenly matched when it comes to combat.
