STORYTELLERS
DAVID
DAVID
I am a game designer, podcast producer, GM and (occasional) streamer based in Auckland.
I was dabbling in running Fate one-shots and 2 years into a 5-year D&D campaign when I found Apocalypse World, introducing me to the broad banner of Powered by the Apocalypse (PbtA) games for the first time. It was love at first dice, and I've been obsessed with trying new games ever since.
As a storyteller, I'm always in search of new heights. Whether it is in comedy or drama, cosy vibes or horror, I love to "yes, and-" my player's wild ideas and punch up the beats to tell the most satisfying narrative possible. I have ample experience on stream and at conventions packing laughter and meaning into self-contained sessions, but I am also a huge fan of working with my players to craft stories that push their characters to grow and change through campaigns.
My players have...
Discovered the only mode of communication on a train is a severed ear in a box
Held a gay wedding with a ghost in the wild west to send them on to the afterlife
Stopped the mayoral reelection of a goat by exposing his many crimes
Hop into one of my tables and we'll see what stories we can tell together!
