Follow me on BlueSky: Log in to view You deserve to enjoy your game.  We all do.  We all have different reasons for joining a table but, once there, we all want to feel powerful.  Whether we are playing the hero, the anti-hero, or the villain; we want to experience an epic tale. This is exactly what brought me to the table over 30 years ago.  It started with that very special Red Box and carried on to Marvel Super Heroes, Rifts, Vampire: The Masquerade, The HERO system, and many more.  TTRPG's speak to my analytical side and my creative side.  I love to see what I can build but, I also want to see what you can build.  I have spent over three decades in gaming learning from fellow players and GM's.  Now, I want to learn from you. So, after all this time, what kind of GM am I? I'm what happens when a theatre major becomes a power gamer.  I dig into the lore and the rules because I want to understand how to run the game.  I prepare for my games like an actor preparing for a role; only, as a GM, I am playing all of the roles except yours.  On Roll20, where I run my games, my Display Name is "Everybody Else."  It's not me against you.  I want you to succeed and feel powerful doing it. I want you to feel safe and valued here as well.  The only thing I will not tolerate is intolerance.  I welcome everyone from power gamers to beginners.  I also welcome your criticism.  I need it to grow and I will never stop growing as a GM.
