About Alexandria
My name is Alexandria (she/her) and I've been playing tabletop rpgs for sixteen years, and I've been a professional Gm for the last four. I enjoy telling character-focused stories with a focus on player agency. I love making maps for my games and providing visuals for all my NPCs. I strive to ensure a welcoming environment for all. I am huge on player safety and making sure everyone is having fun!

The three words my players would use to describe me are...
Understanding, welcoming, and inclusive. I want everyone to have a chance to shine at the table, and everyone should feel safe all the time.
When I'm not running games I'm...
writing or looking after my children. Storytelling is my passion. I've been writing as long as I can remember, and GMing is just a different kind of storytelling.
How Alexandria runs games
I'm a character-focused GM with a love of character story arcs. I believe in rolling with player requests and bending the rules in favor of a good time and a good story. I firmly believe we are collaborating to tell a story together--not me dictating an adventure to you.

I prep by
creating maps and original music for my sessions, as well as outlining a general idea of where the players might go. But the players are in control! If they go against my plans, it's my job to roll with it.
Rules are...
there to facilitate the story. The restrictions and boundaries are part of what guide the tone, keep everyone on an even playing field, and help build the narrative. That said, when the rules aren't serving the story, they can be bent.
Alexandria's ideal table
My ideal table is a group of individuals who are as passionate about the narrative and safety as I am. I like to give players what they want, so long as what they want isn't to limit other players. I want everyone to feel excited about the twists and turns of the plot, but also set each other up for success! My ideal players aren't just thrilled by their own amazing moments, but by those of their fellow players.
Featured Prompts
I am for a vibe that's...
above all else, comfortable! The story may take dark turns and the narrative may be stressful, but no one should ever feel unsafe at my table.
My table is not the place for...
folks who like a lot of crunch or who strictly adhere to game mechanics. I know some people play games to explore a build idea and see how much damage they can deal--and that's great! But my style generally caters more to roleplay, even if I do like to strike a balance.
