How Marcus runs games

Love encouraging roleplay and crafting tactical, high-stakes combat. I encourage players to think outside of the box and try my best to reward creative use

Featured Prompts

Rules are...

meant to improve the game, but not get in the way of play - some rules are meant to be flexible and broken, if it means that the table is having fun.

Marcus's ideal table

My tables are built on consistency, clear communication, and a respect for everyone's time. I run games with a laid-back but focused vibe. You will thrive at this table if you are a collaborative team player who shows up on time, respects your fellow adventurers, and actively engages with the world. We are here to escape the real world for a few hours, I have a zero-tolerance for bigotry or real world drama into the game.

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

invests energy into the games. I put energy into those who put energy into the story that we're sharing together.

I think metagaming...

has a purpose and can be encouraged in a way that isn't disruptive - and I encourage and foster that.

My table is not the place for...

main character syndrome - we're all here to share the spotlight.
