My name's MJ (she/her), and I'm everything your parents warned you about: a horror writer, a punk rock guitarist, a Philadelphia sports superfan, and a Dungeon Master!

My RPG journey started with diceless, GMless play-by-post forums, an environment that passed on the ethos of "playing to find out." Without one person to guide the story forward, we built the world, the plot, and the relationships between characters together. Although I take on a more traditional GM role now, that background shaped my approach to running tables, and my goal is to make players feel like their choices truly matter. Rather than guiding you to an endpoint determined months ago, the story we tell is created as a unit.

My campaigns offer immersive environments through ambient sound and background music, high-quality custom-designed maps, and animated effects that accompany your spells and attacks. On the storytelling end, I have an affinity for friendly commentary and meta-jokes about the whims of the disembodied voice that controls this land. I believe in "rule of cool as written," with mechanics as scaffolding. When presented with a unique approach to solving a problem, I aim to ask, "What existing equipment, abilities, and skills might allow such a thing to happen?

As a member of both the LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent communities, as well as a woman who grew up in largely male-dominated spaces, my tables are a welcoming, safe place for all, regardless of race, color, creed, gender, sexuality, age, social class, or ability.

Games are available by private commission, with higher rates for homebrew or custom campaigns. I take players of all experience levels, especially those willing to learn indie game systems such as Blades in the Dark, Masks: A New Generation, or Shiver.
