What artwork or piece of literature has inspired your TTRPG work?
The biggest literary inspirations have been R.A. Salvatore and Terry Goodkind

Describe your ideal job or assignment in the TTRPG space
My ideal job would be as a full time Game Master. I love crafting these tales and watching players become immersed in them

If you created a weird undead creature, what would it be?
On inspiration from my late wife I created a lycanthrope called a Shlynx. Part sheep part Lynx. The feline features appear when it transforms

What do you think is absolutely essential in creating a safe space for all in a TTRPG game?
Session 0. You have to have a place to have in-depth conversations with your party about what they want, what they want to avoid and what you are offering

Thanks, Ty!
