About the Game Master

Hello and welcome! I am Mr. Mike. I am a post mortem preservation specialist as well as a licensed mortician. I have also held positions as a private detective and as a counselor for juveniles that were affiliated with the correctional system.

I have always had an interest in the horror genre. I started reading Stephen King books in 5th grade, starting with “Cujo”. To date, I have read just over 700 books, my absolute favorite being “Jaws” By Peter Benchley. I do have to mention “Feeders from Within” by Peter Evans, as an awesome read for those Arkham Horror fans out there.

How did I get started with role playing games? I grew up in the inner city of Milwaukee, WI. As a juvenile, I was quite delinquent. My friends and I broke into cars and houses and were responsible for various forms of criminal property damage and vandalism. Then, one day a friend made a stop at the WaldenBooks bookstore and he purchased a copy of “DC Heroes Roleplaying Game, 2nd Edition ”. I would wager crime decreased in our neighborhood by 50% as a result. Instead of causing trouble, our free time was spent creating characters and storylines. My big takeaway from all this was that boredom equals trouble for kids. As a parent, I made sure to keep my children occupied.

In closing, I just wanted to add that there are a ton of great scenarios for Call of Cthulhu. I run a lot of the modules and I try to add 3-4 new ones every month. I wanted to mention that I have two scenarios that I created, “Fit for Duty”. Which takes about 9-12 hours. And “Naked and Afraid…” Well, maybe.” Which is a one shot session that takes around 3 hours. Both are my personal pieces of work and if you’re looking for something new and fresh, there you have it. I also have three new scenarios in progress, and I hope you all keep an eye out for them.

Thank you to all those who participated in my games and I love all the kind reviews! Hope to see you soon!

Mr. Mike
