Maddy Penny

Maddy is an Australian professional Dungeon Master, TTRPG writer, and content creator with a passion for telling unforgettable stories. She has been running games professionally on StartPlaying for over two years, hosting 6 to 7 games every week for players from all over the world.

Whether you're rolling your very first set of dice or you've been adventuring for decades, Maddy loves creating games where every player feels welcome, supported, and excited to tell their character's story. She's quick to adapt to unexpected player choices, thrives on collaborative storytelling, and enjoys challenging her groups with meaningful roleplay, memorable NPCs, and tactical combats that reward clever thinking, creativity, and teamwork.

Above all else, Maddy believes that the best games are built on trust, laughter, and shared storytelling. Player joy, passion, and safety are at the heart of everything she does, and she strives to care more about your character than even you do. If you love emotional moments, epic victories, impossible choices, and leaving the table with stories you'll still be talking about weeks later, she'd love to welcome you to one of her games.
