Description
I've been playing tabletop since 3rd edition D&D and I'm at the point in my life where I'd rather find one good group than keep starting over. Looking to be a player for once. I am exhausted from always GMing, and I'm looking for just showing up and playing well with others.
Systems I love: SWADE, FATE, and most things that aren't vanilla 5e. I mean 5e is okay, but it's just overdone. Pathfinder 1E has a place in my heart primarily due to nostalgia, but I otherwise enjoy lighter systems. I'm flexible on setting but I light up for urban fantasy, sci-fi, horror, and anything with genuine moral complexity. Dresden Files, weird west, space opera? Yes, please!
Availability: Friday or Saturday evenings EST. I'm consistent. If I'm in, I'm in, every session, on time. If not, you'll know long in advance. Last minute cancellations aren't my thing. Heck, cancellations aren't my thing, but I leave that caveat just in case of the rarity. That consideration? I bring that to everything I do.
What else I bring: two decades of table experience, genuine investment in collaborative storytelling, and a player who actually reads the lore you send. I engage with the story, not just my character sheet. But I will actually learn my mechanics, too.
What I'm hoping to find: a group that's been around long enough to know they actually like playing together, with a GM who runs tight sessions and keeps momentum going. New groups welcome if the vibe is right and everyone's serious about it. Bonus points if you have a track record of making it past session three.
I prefer narrative-focused play with real stakes over combat tourism, and mature themes over vanilla fantasy.
DM me if this sounds like your table. Happy to chat before either of us commits. I think that's good for everyone. I've made the mistake of jumping in gung ho in the past, and I respect your time and mine too much to do that again.
