STORYTELLERS

JOE
I have been a professional storyteller with Questbook since late 2020. During that time, I have had up to three active, weekly D&D campaigns (both online and in-person) for players of all ages, while also running one-shot games in the many events that QB hosts & attends such as the Cancer Society Games Fair or Auckland Armageddon.
What started as a simple (but obsessive) interest in D&D, thanks to learning about Critical Role back in 2019, has turned into a veritable second job that has given me an absolute dragon's hoard of knowledge & experiences.
I have gotten to meet truly amazing people, make truly amazing friends, and create truly amazing stories in this career. Joining QB was one of the best decisions I've made in my life and my one regret is that I didn't get into RPGs sooner.
Games
What I own and have experience running:
ALIEN The Roleplaying Game - Deadly sci-fi horror RPG based on the Alien movie franchise. Employs stress as a resource, and best run-in short bursts of 'cinematic play' for maximum xenomorph enjoyment.
Dragonbane - Classic fantasy RPG that requires tactics and a sense of humour. Sweden's first (and biggest) RPG remastered for modern audiences.
Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition - High fantasy roleplaying and the world's most popular RPG.
Jim Henson's Labyrinth - The cult classic movie in TTRPG form. Race through the maze to reach the castle beyond the Goblin City before your time is up.
LANCER - Highly tactical, mech-piloting, versatile mud-and-lasers RPG set in the far future, where humanity has spread out amongst the stars.
MÖRK BORG - Apocalyptic, rules light, 'heavy metal' RPG from Sweden. Lost souls & fools seeking redemption, forgiveness or the last remaining riches in a bleak and dying world.
Mothership RPG - Deadly sci-fi horror RPG. You and your crew try to survive in the most inhospitable environment in the universe: outer space!
Pirate Borg - Scurvy-ridden, rules light, swashbuckling RPG using the MÖRK BORG system. Sail the seas, fight skeletons, defeat eldritch sea-god cultists, then sail away with that sweet pirate booty.
Warhammer 40k: Wrath & Glory (2nd Edition) - Grimdark science fantasy set in the famous Warhammer 40,000 universe. Team up with your imperium or xenos crew, as you become rogue traders and carve your place in the galaxy.
