About Belac
Hello, my name is Belac [or Bel, either works], and I've been DMing for a few years now. Evidentially I did a good enough job with my Bleach DnD Campaign that they decided to pay me for it a while back. Recently I've started DMing at my local library once a month for payment as well, so with two groups saying it's worth paying for I figured why not try it here? I enjoy world building and lore based campaigns! I am very experienced with DnD 5e, Fairly Experienced with the Fantasy Flight Star Wars system, and a little chaotic game known as Goblin Errands.

My favorite system of all Time is
Genesys. It's a perfect mix of cinematic, flexible, and doesn't get bogged down in the many limitations other systems such as DnD. It also can be easily made into any world with only a few edits. Powered by the Apocalypse type games such as Avatar Legends are a close second.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Playing games, writing in online RP, running, visiting friends and unfortunately trying to get a job
How Belac runs games
My players have described my DMing as both Story and Character focused, building multiple paths for my players to take and adapting as the campaign continues to what my players enjoy. I have a great joy for world building. I end each session with a summary of what each player enjoyed, didn't enjoy, and what they want to see more of to help make the campaign as enjoyable as possible for my players- and in custom settings I like to let my players add their own locations to the world. In DnD I greatly enjoy implementing the Heroic Chronicle with a few modifications, a have different homebrew books to shake up the repetitive nature. I make sure to have appropriate maps whenever needed, and visual references for NPCs and characters. Very LQBT+ friendly

I deal with rules issues by...
making a ruling in the moment, and then talking it out after session so as to not take up other's time. At the end of session if something needs to be changed, or if the temporary ruling was liked, it will be added to a channel meant to keep a list of all rulings made for consistency.
My games focus on...
character choice and narrative. If we can, I want to get everyone's stories told and to let the party go in whatever direction they want. I also like to do one shots that move away from the party to show the scope of the world- and to take a break from same old same old on occasion.
Rules are...
what decides the story you'll get. Flexible systems like Genesys can be bent and changed to better fit character and narrative the story- but things like DnD or other rigid war games are made with that in mind. If you're homebrewing a majority of the rules, it might be time to try something new.
Belac's ideal table

creative thinking and flexibility
I love it when a player
Goes in a direction I did not expect. I've had players pull out resurrection items in the middle of an ancient tomb, ready to resurrect an ancient powerful entity I full planned to remain dead- and if they had not decided to save it for a party member, I would have 100% brought them back!
I think it's a red flag when players...
put their grievances before the game and others at the player. To actively stop the game for a complaint, especially when there is a section at the end to talk about things you did not like, is to put yourself before everyone else at the table, and does not value my time or the other players.
