This document is an exercise to share my personal Storyteller voice and perspective on how I consciously perform the role of Storyteller when receiving the opportunity to run the game.

This is not a prescription on how Storytelling must be performed in order for it to succeed. There are many paths to successful games of Blood on the Clocktower that bring joy and fellowship into the world. 

Your perspective on Storytelling will come from your life experience. Spend some time thinking about how you as an individual play, approach, and run the game in a way that uses and showcases your individual strengths.

Topics:

• Personal Storyteller Approach

• Humility, Grace, & Gratitude

• Event Preparedness

• Cadence / Routine

• Prioritizing the New Player Experience

• Time & Group Management

• Repairing Mistakes

• Meet Your Players at Their Familiarity & Level of Experience
