I take on all the roles of game master, solo player, author, and narrator. Come with me on a journey, and together let us explore realms of shadow, danger, and wonder! One roll can decide the fate of many things…<br /><br />Roll, Ponder, and Play podcast blends immersive story telling with ambient sounds and music into a compelling audio drama. I use role-playing game (RPG) systems to both propel the plot forward and to handle conflict mechanics. Out-of-character (OOC) moments pull back the curtain, revealing die results, insights into game mechanics, character decisions, and on-the-fly world building.</p>\n<p><strong>Praise for 'Queen of Shadows' on Roll, Ponder, and Play:</strong></p>\n<p>\"I'm on episode 17, and already dreading the end of Queen of Shadows. I just wanted to thank you for your efforts putting together such a fantastic story and production. This is easily one of the best RPG podcasts I've heard. Better, in many ways, than Me, Myself &amp; Die. Every bit as enjoyable as The Bad Spot. Story, voices, music, editing--all of it is top-notch. As an audio production professional myself, I appreciate your attention to mix, overall level, balance, etc. Keep up the good work!\" - Loren Alldrin</p>\n<p><strong>\"</strong>After I saw your email I started listening to Queen of shadows right away. And I am hooked. I love the way you tell your stories. Your language is dark, rich, and poetic in a way I wish I could match. And your voice! I envy your pipes. I definitely hope I will see you on the SRN discord! In the meantime, I will be binging your show!\"  -Brian from \"Swords Against Madness\" and \"Trans-Real News\"</p>\n<p>\"<span>I'm working through Queen of Shadows quickly and really liking what you bring to the table!\", \"...and if I haven't said it before, you've got a hell of a voice.\" -</span><span>Jon Cohen from \"Tale of the Manticore\"</span><span></span></p>\n<p><span>\"This is great!
