Marcin is fantastic at providing a fun and welcoming environment for his players to goof off and is great at integrating his player's own ideas into the game. His games are super chill with great vibes and I've encountered almost no drama among any of the players at his table. He's also been transparent about scheduling and is always careful to respect his player's boundaries. I'd recommend him for anyone looking a chill GM and a safe gaming environment with a big focus on character drama and player creativity.

Maarcin is a DM who is good at finding a balance between what players want to do and what can be achieved through the mechanics of the game. They are very encouraging of player creativity both in and out of game.

I think the best thing that comes to my mind is that Marcin is very helpful to new players, creates a relaxed atmosphere and is always excited about the game. He is really welcoming and can teach you a lot. If you like also more laid back, chill sessions - Marcin would be my best pick. He quickly adapts to players and their choices.

I’ve been looking for a GM for a while and Marcin was recommended to me by a friend. We have already played a few times and he’s great! He knows the rules well and is patient with beginners. Highly skilled player :)

How to prepare

Get a decent mic, discord and roll20 account and hop into play! https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2508/6356/files/City_of_Mist_Free_Preview_-_Player_s_Guide.pdf?v=1609195138 Here's a preview of Player Guide with a basic info about the game. I'll provide you with all the necessary info before session 0.

What I provide

We're playing on roll20 and Discord. The sessions as with all PBTA games will be narrative heavy, even in combat. There will be atmospheric music, twists and danger around every corner, after all City never sleeps and neither should you!

Gameplay details

I will provide you with consent form and we'll discuss all potential triggers on session 0. X card and such is of course respected. Futhermore we will be taking a short break in the middle of the session (and whenever necessary).

How will character creation work

Think about a story, character, item, magical beast or even a real person from our history. Now think about how would a power based on them manifest. Would it be super speed? Maybe extra hard skin? Ability to adapt? Once you have that we have a starting point! Now think what could a person with that power be doing in their "normal life". Maybe they are in problematic relationship? Maybe they have a prized possession like a car or a nice small shop?
