A. ‘Dr Mitch’.
This was a really difficult one as I know a lot of great players, especially in the GM’s club when they get the chance to let their hair down and run a game. However, when I reflected, the answer was simple.
In this case, I’m going to call out Dr Mitch, as he has been the yin to my yang, the heads to my tails during our ongoing run of Eternal Lies for Trail of Cthulhu. It’s a very intense and challenging set up to have two players and a GM. You have to carry when the other player is having an off day, for example tired from work. You have to share the spotlight and balance out each other’s character’s weaknesses. You almost need to be in a place where both of you could play the other’s character. You need a different level of generosity and focus to play like this.
We’ve been on with this for three years on and off, so have developed a deep understanding of both characters. It’s been fantastic and challenging and one of the best roleplaying experiences of my gaming life. So a big thank you to Dr Mitch!
