About Me

Storytelling is a big part of my life. It's always been, and probably will be. History, fantasy, or even just recollecting with friends. Without stories, what's the point, right? I believe roleplaying games are the ultimate form of collaborative storytelling. Nothing beats a story where all your friends jump in adding to it, and expanding on it, and putting their own twist on what happened. Sharing some little detail we overlooked, or another perspective on the same scenario. Roleplaying games let us have that same experience with fiction, which is often a little more exciting than reality. None of us can truthfully tell of the time we slew a dragon and rescued the prince.Games give us the framework to not only tell that tale about slaying a dragon, but fill us in on the specific details of how that makes a story all the more believable. 

 

I’m excited to work with the Creative Customs team on the ongoing story and can’t wait for the collaborative tales we will weave. This project is the next level of collaborative storytelling, and I can’t wait to see what stories we tell. 

 

I’ve recently started putting my thoughts online, and you can find more at the TTRPG Factory, a website I’ve set up for me, and some friends, to share ideas about TTRPGs with the world at large.
