Matthew Morris, aka ManaRampMatt has been playing roleplaying games for nearly a decade and has been creating and publishing games and supplements since 2020. He is obsessed with Mausritter and any other Into the Odd based game. Outside of the gaming world he is a husband to an amazing wife, father to two little and cute kiddos, and pastors a rural church community. Matthew loves history, theology, fantasy, adventure, and lots of weird little things in those realms.
Matthew's work and enthusiasm for the hobby are contagious! I had the honor to collaborate with him in a few occasions and I can't wait to do it again. His most recent work has just been kickstarted and is called Tomb of a Thousand Doors brings a community built mega dungeon to the acclaimed Mausritter RPG! Oh, and he just launched a Patreon with Hush Lashbrooke to release more Mausritter content regularly (check it out: https://www.patreon.com/TinyTails)
On this wonderful chat we talked about coffee and his relationship with it and creativity. We talked about how he is a man of christian faith and how that affects his life and the life of other around him. How he seeks to be a beacon of light and positivity, and how that is important in a world that is constantly blasting us with negative information 24/7.
We talked a lot about gaming, RPGs, influences, artists, and all that wonderful weirdness we love!
So listen up and get weird with us!
