Char name: Amata
Event: The Great Tome Heist (The first)
Responsiveness: Rob never lets me down with how quick this man works, and he does it on the fly a lot of the time. It's honestly shocking the amount of stamina he has considering these events are reputable for being LENGTHY.
Balance: I cannot comment on this personally, as I wasn't part of the fight. However, the team seemed to handle it well from observation.
Storytelling: Multiple branching options for progression, man took the time to actually work with a split group, I got to rizz an NPC, I got to smack said NPC's head off a window, I got to rizz said NPC AGAIN. Old lore was touched upon and given new life, a massive course altering decision was made for my character that resolved one of her story beats in a way that actually felt fitting, and tied away a few things in a way that didn't feel forced. There were a few moments in there with actual suspense, where I thought the return of my roll curse was going to have us fail the heist. Honestly, I can never fault this man for his stories. There's a reason he was who I asked to run this, knowing how passionate he can be about the lore and that he's willing to work with what's offered and find ways to incorporate old stories into a newer generation of characters.
Fairness: The dice rolls. Why are my dice so cursed? That aside, you worked with our silly ideas with how we were stashing our gear, and let me roll for some absolutely silly things early on, but I am just convinced at this point my d6 is cursed. 2 events in a row I've nat 1'd.
Rob himself, however, was very fair with me. Man didn't heavily penalize me for being cursed at all. He let the team get super creative with some stuff and that is always based.
Overall: There's a reason I chose Rob. Bless his heart. The man's had a week, had me annoying him in the planning phase due to miscommunication, had some issues with tracking down ancient E3 lore, and he STILL came in hard with this one. 10/10, I love this man and 100% need to start actually doing better in the planning phase for his sanity when I request him in future.

Sorry, Brandon.
