	I run games like they are cinematic experiences. I love it when players describe their actions in detail so the entire group can get a good visual of the action. For other scenes, I include cuts away from scenes during dramatic moments to add a level of suspense as well as give players time to think. Montages, villainous monologues, and other cinematic devices will be used.		I run games like they are cinematic experiences.

I run games like they are cinematic experiences. I love it when players describe their actions in detail so the entire group can get a good visual of the action. For other scenes, I include cuts away from scenes during dramatic moments to add a level of suspense as well as give players time to think. Montages, villainous monologues, and other cinematic devices will be used.

To me, roleplaying is about the characters growing due to the circumstances of their situation.

I want your character’s personal drama to complicate things, and I am open to players selected sending me aspects, or complications, of their character’s lives they would like to have brief interludes to during the run.

If a game is labeled Pink Mohawk, or Black Trenchcoat, I will expect the players to assist in maintaining that theme.
