About Magdalena May

I've run 5e games for the better part of a decade, from years long campaigns with a core group, solo adventuress for friends, teaching new players by running a local TTRPG club, and over the last 3 years running a West March campaign for dozens of folks online and in my hometown. I deeply enjoy rewarding out of the box thinking and alternative solutions to combat, but I still love a good mutual beatdown! Clear communication is something I strive for in my own life and I will work with players engender an environment where they may each freely explore the wonders of TTRPGs!

How Magdalena May runs games

For typical campaigns, players will enjoy opportunities to explore a world where their input in character creation leave clear impact. Within these typical campaigns chances at combat and roleplaying will be bountiful, but the choice of how to best address a problem will always lie in the hands of the players. While I enjoy running difficult combat encounters and roleplaying situations engage that PCs, the games I run will be tailored to those playing them!
