About

My name is Stevie and I use he/him/his pronouns.

Background

I am a long-time lover of fantasy, sci-fi, camp, and the strange. Or as my grandmother would say in her heavy southern accent, “that weird stuff.” In the past decade, I’ve also expanded into the horror genre. I have two cats, Special Agent Carter and Professor Harry Kitten, of whom the former is a perfect nugget and the latter is an adorable goblin. I have two amazing partners, who are very supportive of my recent ventures into streaming. My partners themselves have three cats (Greg, Odin, Kita) and one large doberman (Jenny Blu), which roughly translates to Too Many Animals across two households.The latter coterie will likely never be on camera, but always in my heart.

Game Ethos

I think that TTRPGs create exciting, collaborative moments where a group of people can tell cool stories and explore new ideas together in a brave space that allows for mistake-making and risk-taking. I strive to make sure my games are inclusive, kind, and fun, regardless of the genre. At my core, I believe that all of us contain stories and that by working together and leaning on each other, we can create entirely new narratives that go beyond what we could have imagined alone. As a GM, I love being able to set up an environment where everyone gets to feel like a hero, gets to feel like they matter and that their actions have a real impact on the world around them. I try to approach RPing and Combat not as an “either/or” situation but as two sides of the same coin– how can RPing change and mix up the Combat scenario in meaningful ways? In what ways can Combat further the intensity of the RPing and provide interesting opportunities for role-play? I roll with a combination of RAW and Rule of Cool, the specific balance of which is decided during Session Zeros. Whatever we decide on during that time– any rules alterations, which versions of rulings we’re going with, etc.-- we stick to within the game, with the understanding that we as a table can pause and re-evaluate the rules at any time. After all, TTRPG’s are supposed to be fun and if we’re not having fun, then something needs to change. The whole table, not just the GM, has say in what direction the game goes.

GMing Style

My GM style is a balance of combat (40%) and roleplaying (60%). I do character voices of varying quality but always high commitment! I strongly believe in collaborative storytelling-- players are story-tellers, too! I prefer to GM as a conversation between myself and the players at the table as work towards a collective goal, not a "GM versus players" situation. I'm flexible, creative, and prefer to have humor hand in hand with the more serious moments. If you have any more questions, please let me know!
