Live-Action Role-Playing games I've written

Monsters Under the Bed is a game about a child and the monsters that live under their bed. During the day, those monsters inhabit the child’s stuffed animals, and listen to the child talk about their life. At nighttime, those monsters come out and scare the child, uncovering their fears. Rules and Instructions (PDF download). Cards (PDF download, print double-sided and cut out).

Sit Tight is a game about the experience of waiting (alone yet together) for something you have no control over. It may provoke feelings of anxiety, frustration, and/or isolation. The game is played out over three different scenarios, each exploring the same themes in a different context. Rules, instructions and character sheets (PDF download).

Fading Lights is a game I wrote with Xavid and Edwin for the Iron GM contest at Intercon S in 2019. It's a magical realism coming-of-age story that takes place in a library. It's since run at several other venues. Game download on itch.io.

In the Hall of the Beast is a game of dim light and bargaining with the devil that I wrote with Xavid and Edwin for Iron GM at Intercon T in 2020.

The Gardens of Kepler-452b is an online LARP of space gardening, exploring foreign landscapes, and conceptions of the world and our place in it. I wrote it with Edwin and Mehitabel for Iron GM in 2021.

Prisoners of Memory is a game about the price of immortality, and making difficult decisions with limited information. I wrote it with Olivia and Elisa for Peaky Midwest in 2021.

What We Saw at the End is a game of alien archaeology and relating to past societies, written with Adrien and Peter for MOLW 2019.
