Describe yourself and your play style. “I am a writer. an historian, a linguist and a storyteller. I love using my knowledge of languages and cultures to enrich my games and game worlds. I am a narrative storyteller, and I am not a rule lawyer. 8/10 times I will rule on the side of "cool" and "Fun" over RAW.”

Tell us about your favorite NPC to have run. “Cupcake. A feral, Halfling Barbarian that was an experiment by Greer a gnomish mad scientist. The PC's took a liking to him and hated Greer for treating him like a dog and slave. The party paid Greer for Cupcakes freedom and took care of him, and he became the "child" of the party. They raised him, and exposed him to reading, writing, art, travel and love.”

Describe yourself and your play style. “I'm fairly new to the gaming world, only been involved for 1 1/2 years now. I absolutely love TTRPGs, and am so excited to introduce our new system, Rupture, to everyone. My gaming style is lots of role-play, little bit of combat, puzzles to figure out, and I keep it light-hearted, full of laughs, and there'll probably a bad pun here or there! I love the players, and it's really their story; I'm just the narrator here to bring it all together.”

Tell us about your favorite NPC to have run. “My favorite NPC is a little old witchy type, Wilda, who lives inside of a large tree within the Enchanted Woods, and is a little bit mana-torn (a little loopy, lol). She's high energy, and mysterious, and can be super helpful, IF you are on her side, but then can change her demeanor in a instant if someone opposes her.”

I'm an avid gamer, artist, and all around big brother to my friends and family. Currently I am going to college learning the craft of Digital Design and I am a part of Rupture RPG, as a developer/game designer.

Running games for six years.

Describe yourself and your play style.: “I am a person who loves to tell stories and build worlds for others to explore. I have refined my style so that I maintain a living world. The actions of the players have ripples that will carry throughout the world they play in, and just because a character is not "on screen" does not mean they are just sitting idle waiting for the players to return. I like to maintain a fun and lighthearted environment both in the game and out. One shots are the perfect chance to play with more ridiculous and fun types of adventures. I have spent 6 years jumping between player and game runner, and I am now the Lead Designer of the Rupture System working with the creator of the system to build an amazing world and system for people to enjoy.”

Tell us about your favorite NPC to have run.: “My favorite NPC would be Kazi, an elven "teenager" prodigy of magic and alchemy. She had the personality of a humming bird and would jump though to thought and project to project in the blink of an eye. She was more interested in the results of an experiment rather than the ramifications. She was fun to play as I had to speak fast and spout out magic-techno-babble.”

Casual: I love empowering players to be creative and descriptive. I share spotlight and like players to get invested in their characters. I want each game to give each player a chance to shine. I do often let players take the game in the direction that they're interested in vs. anything I may have prepared. I ask a lot of questions and try to give players a safe space to let their imagination run.

Tell us about your favorite NPC to have run: I do love a good instigator! So, I just ran a game where a character's mom became a reoccurring nuisance of an NPC that was really fun. Two of the PCs kept calling her up, so she kept calling them in return. In the end it opened the door for a really funny conspiracy twist.
