Recent trends:
* I'm reading up on Burning Wheel and a lot of the ideas in that system are looking interesting to me right now.
* I want to find ways to incorporate audio into the gaming experience to set the mood.
* Recently I've had a lot of exposure to European history, especially Rome, England, France, and the German speaking countries. This might weigh a lot on how I design cultures and political entities in my games right now.
* I've also been learning Old English and gotten interested in some bits of linguistics. I promise not to invent a language and make you learn it, I am no Tolkien.


GMing Style notes:
Much more into story, intrigue, and romance lately.
* I tend to improvise a lot more than other GMs. It seems to work well.
* Expect experimentation.
* Are you looking for that monster you just fought or the item it dropped in the books? Hah! Good luck!
