About Nick May

What’s up everyone! My name is Nick and I’m a long time player and have been DMing for about 3 years. I currently am running 3 campaigns for friends and family and play in a couple as well. I started playing in a friends garage during 2E with physical books and just having a great time. Since then my experience has grown along with the game! I’m currently a big fan of 5.5 and the things it’s added to modern DnD experience. Let’s run some games, kill some monsters and make some legendary stories we can laugh and joke about for years to come

How Nick May runs games

I am definitely more the story driven role play and heavy combat DM. I love adding lots of homebrew and focusing the rule of cool when it comes to mechanics and what the players enjoy. Rules are there to make things fair and keep things uniform but if we can come up with some fun house rules that can do the same why not spice things up!

Featured Prompts

I deal with rules issues by...

Usually a dice roll. If you think it should be ruled one way and I another. Instead of squabbling and taking time away from the game, call odds, evens, high or low and let the dice decide our fate.

My games focus on...

An evolving world, character growth and development and stakes that change based on character choice.

When it comes to voices

I’m able to convey tonality and personality shifts between different NPCs but I am no voice actor.

Nick May's ideal table
