Maitreyi Plays Games

Maitreyi is an Indian woman in Canada, learning to be a better TTRPG GM, a better player, and a better person!

Hello there! I started getting into tabletops in 2019 and have been doing some kind of content creation as a creative outlet for a little while. My blogging days started with a Xanga.. before LiveJournal…

I love writing but I never know what to write about. Enter tabletops. There is so much to learn and so much to engage with! It’s social, but there is a big element of individual engagement if you want! It’s the perfect hobby for me!

The learning-based format of my content was inspired by my desire to ask a billion questions to anyone and everyone who was willing to answer them, and knowing that I am far, far from an expert. I am very intentionally putting myself in positions of learning and am getting a LOT out of it! I find this approach also lets me feel like I’m pulling a bit of life into rules on a page and dice rolls - and what is this glorious pasttime if not driven by life!

An I’m-still-learning-format is fairly unusual for the tabletop content creation space, but I hope it makes the whole thing feel more approachable and accessible.

To paraphrase one of the great poets of our time, Cindy Lauper, we all just wanna have fun. But is kicking down a door to fight baddies fun, or is reading a letter from your childhood love fun, or ... shocker.. BOTH! Turns out there are lots of ways we have fun and find joy and connect with each other and the games we play. -
