I’m a Game Master with 20+ years of experience running character-driven campaigns focused on roleplay, political intrigue, mystery, and meaningful player choices. I love building living worlds where the actions of one group can ripple across future stories, and where characters matter just as much as the plot.
My games tend to lean cinematic and collaborative, blending dramatic storytelling with moments of tension, humor, horror, and triumph. I enjoy systems like City of Mist, Defiant, D&D, Shadowdark, and narrative-heavy games where player creativity can genuinely shape the world. Expect layered NPCs, evolving factions, moral dilemmas, and settings that react to what the players do rather than waiting for them to follow a script.
I’m heavily roleplay-focused, but I also enjoy tactical combat when it serves the story. I prefer games where combat has stakes and meaning rather than existing purely as filler. Whether it’s noir investigations in a mythic city, desperate survival against cosmic horror, or political maneuvering between supernatural powers, I try to create games that feel immersive and emotionally engaging.
At the table, I value communication, reliability, and collaboration. I run Session 0s, discuss boundaries and expectations openly, and use safety tools to make sure everyone can enjoy mature themes comfortably. My goal is always to create a welcoming environment where players can invest deeply in their characters without worrying about being talked over or sidelined.
Logistics-wise, I primarily run online games through Roll20 and Discord, typically in EST evenings. I’m comfortable teaching new players and enjoy helping people learn systems, though I also love having experienced roleplayers who enjoy diving into character and setting lore.
If you enjoy strong atmosphere, memorable characters, worldbuilding, and games where your choices actually matter, you’ll probably fit in well at my table.
