French programmer with a few years of Web Development experience using mostly AMP platforms (with a healthy dose of Javascript) and loving it. I've also experimented with Python, SQLite, ActionScript/Flash and Java.

An unrepentant lover of video games for many a year, I've fallen in love with tabletop RPGs when I was introduced to Feng Shui. I've since played various editions of D&D and WoD, Exalted 2e, Shadowrun 3, Warhammer(Fantasy and Dark Heresy) and Anima. I love nothing more than taking a good look at elegant game mechanics (and playing with them of course). As a GM, my games of choice are Strands of Fate and Mutants & Masterminds.

comment How can I run games in Shadowrun, without going overboard?
About over-rewarding : I'm completely down with carnal sin, but isn't it actually a cardinal sin ? :P

comment What systems contain Multiple Caster or Combined Casting rules?
Yeah, I figured what you asked wouldn't really work after thinking about it a little.

How was nWoD Mage of no help exactly ? I seem to remember rather explicit rules about this in the core book...

comment How to efficiently describe mental danger
Do you really NEED to have these ? I mean, most of the time for mental "actions" this is probably the domain of another move entirely... Though I have this one that comes to mind : You know the Gap is an illusion, but to successfully walk across, you must put all your Will into it. Defy danger with Wis.

comment Any rules or fluff around a technomancer infected with HMHVV?
Rather interesting concept, curious about the implementation too.

Now that was mean.

comment What is the term for a mean character role-played by a nice player?
Also note that truly "diametrically opposed" is difficult to achieve in terms of personality, as there are so many variables involved.

comment Does GMing diminish or detract from being a player in games?
TVTropeWillRuinYourLife is more true if you consider the time you spend there rather than the resultant SAN loss.

comment Covertly casting a spell
Ooh, nice ! Sometimes we're so stuck in our Arcane ways we forget the mundane stuff works too.

comment What is the threshold strength of the sunrise?
I'd take a more metaphorical approach. "Light shines brightest in the dark". So the more an area is affected by "darkness" the more powerful the threshold. This might be related to a stronger connection to the Nevernever, too.

comment Adjusting aspects based on attendance
It is, at the very least, how the guys who designed FATE to begin with wrote it to be. Maybe a direct question to these guys on G+ might be in order.

comment How could I make Bruce Banner/Incredible Hulk as a valid character?
Depending on the power level of the Hulk in question, he'd almost be better modeled as a Scion, in fact.

comment What are the differences between Shadowrun 3rd and 4th edition that I should know about?
While it's also called Fading, it's an entirely different concept more akin to drain. This is why I detailed which Fading I was writing about.
