Salut! I'm Cypis, I'm also fine with Anthony or Tony since its my actual like, name.
I'm from Poland (Polska gurom) and most of my ttrpg experiences are based here locally. Profesionally I'm kinda all over the place, but my main source of income is translation and localisation (I'm translanting ttrpg sourcebooks from end to pol) and teaching english. I also do some passion projects on youtube and twitch (ye, I'm a "streamer"), in voiceover and acting. Typical theater kid I guess?
I've been playing TTRPGs for over 10 years now, and for the better part of these years L5R is my system of choice. I had the pleasure of running long campaigns (we're on our second one rn) for a group of my friends. We've been playing for over 8 years now together, creating our own world in Rokugan! I'm also running lots of RPGs on various conventions, not only in Poland. I'm also GMing on Start Playing Games for peeps online.
GM Style
Whatever goes dude. I feel best in the horror genre or running political intrigue, but I'm fortunate to have vast experience with different campaigns and player tables, so I'm a big proponent of collaborative storytelling. I do not like to be "the omnipowerful GM" - the role of a Narrator, bringing the ideas of everyone at the table together, fits me much more. I have a background in improv theater so usually I run games based on narrative nodes, filling in the gaps with improvisation. I also greatly enjoy doing voices and all of the usual theater kid shabang.
When it comes to inspirations I'm a huge Kurosawa nerd, but also am an anime person... so the mix of the two is something you can expect from my adventures ;P Some high-stakes honor-driven Kurosawaesque drama, with a sprinke of wuxia epicness and shonen anime fight sequences. I promise, it's a delightful cocktail.
