About Marcin
🎲26 year old GM 🎲 DMing for 6 years 🎲 2 years professionally I love running narrative systems like Fate and City of Mist but I really adore the thick, rule heavy books like PF2e! My games consist of friendly banter, serious moments and some very low quality jokes. Important Notes: - All games are LGBTQIA-friendly! - No racism, sexism or any form of hate speech is acceptable at my table and will be punished swiftly!

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be
Pathfinder 2e, FATE and probably Blades in the Dark. I have fond memories with all of these systems and I with range like that I could gather some players from other shipwrecked people
My favorite books are
Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn and Stormlight Archive, and recently books by Camilla Läckberg. I like blending epic tales with a bit of mystery and intrigue.
My favorite shows/movies are
Magnus Archive/Protocol, Midnight Burger and Old Gods of Appalachia. I love the intricate worldbuilding with deep lore that slowly unveils before you. I also love rich characters with distinct personalities.
How Marcin runs games
I love brainstorming ideas with my players, helping them with creating a perfect character or crafting great character arcs. I'm running premade adventures/modules, sometimes sprinkling some of my own little ideas ^^ In my homebrewed games I prefer to improvise - my prep work consists of getting some names for NPCs, places etc. and reacting to players' choices. I find it works the best for me!

I deal with rules issues by...
making a ruling on the fly and checking on it after session. We don't waste our playtime on arguing, we find the solution that works for everyone and then I find a "proper" answer afterwards.
I once ran a session...
prepared in 2 minutes. It was a game of Mörk Borg, all we had was pens, paper, dice and character randomizer. It was a dark fantasy turned dark comedy with lots of black humor and irony
My favorite trope is...
when two characters with chemistry end up in a room with one bed. Oh we're talking rpg tropes huh. Then... character's last stand, a heroic sacrifice for sake of others. It's always a powerful moment when someone gives up their life for a higher purpose.
Marcin's ideal table
I love players who are open to brainstorming concepts together. Generally players that gravitate towards me are pretty chill, not stiff about rules and really focused on making quirky characters. We often spend first quarter of an hour on banter and small talk.

I love it when a player
has The Idea. A central point for their character, something that inspires them, drives them forward and makes them fun. I feel like once you find it you are golden
I think metagaming...
sucks the fun out of game. Why play pretend if you aren't going to pretend?
My table is not the place for...
bigots.
