It’s #GameMasterMonday here at Shades of Vengeance and this week, we’re shining a spotlight on Aearon, one of the outstanding game masters who works with us here at Shades of Vengeance.
Aearon is originally from Guernsey, and they live with Dot – the cutest cat ever. They started playing Era games in 2020 at Contingency, when they had a free slot and saw our games being played. People suggested they try the Era: The Consortium Time Travel Campaign that Leo was running, and they’ve been hooked ever since.
When they discovered role-playing games, it was like a dream come true. Here was a way to explore different identities in a safe and controlled environment, to step into other shoes and try on different lives. And best of all, it was simple: all you needed was your imagination. Of all the RPGs Aearon has played over the years, their favorite is Consortium. In this game, they find that they’re able to be more themselves than anything else. They can explore different aspects of their personality, and they enjoy being able to inhabit an alternate reality where they have control over their own destiny.
For them, gaming isn’t just a hobby – it’s a way of life. They love being a part of the gaming community and finding new friends who share their interests. Gaming has definitely become a big part of their life and they can’t imagine not having it in their life. It’s a great way to unwind after a long day and it’s also a great way to connect with friends, even if they’re not in the same physical location. They love feeling like they’re part of something bigger and they love meeting new people who share their passion for gaming.
Aearon is an expert at running complex campaigns, and they’re always coming up with new and interesting ways to keep their players engaged. If you’re interested in joining one of Aearon’s games – make sure to check out or Discord server: https://discord.gg/6C4H9Cv
