About Andromache

Hey I'm Indi! I've been doing RPGs for going on a decade now and have been a GM going on 3 years. I've been a storyteller my whole life and when a friend encouraged me to try out GMing it was a game changer for me! Since then I've hosted games at both Genghis Con and Tacticon, and have become the primary GM for the gaming group Dragon Capsule Keep in Aurora, CO where I host in person games every Wednesday night. I've spent a lot of time working on my skills as a GM, and after learning about this site I felt encouraged to join and hopefully spend even more time doing what I love- telling stories and helping other people tell their own.

I got started GMing...

In 2023 at the request of my friend(you may know him as Judge Mograham) who encouraged me to run at our IRL table. I've been running games almost every week ever since.

My favorite system of all Time is

DCC!

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Adaptable, dependable, and intuitive.

How Andromache runs games

Some things you can find in any of my games include roleplay, comedy, in depth puzzles and problem solving, team strategy, and genuine human interaction. I've always felt that my job was to facilitate the game my players wanted to see and the story they wanted to tell, so for my games I try to make a point to gather everyone's input on what makes a great game to them, and incorporate as much of that as I can.

I deal with rules issues by...

Trying to compromise. If we're halfway through a game and someone only just caught the issue, then I leave it to the table to vote on if it's fair to maintain the og way as a house rule for that particular game, and then if people prefer it going forward that's fine with me.

I once ran a session...

Where my players managed to adopt the very mouthy parrot originally belonging to the BBEG and convinced him to give up all the secrets to the plot through excellent charisma rolls and crackers.

Rules are...

Best when they are understood so well they can be bent to your will.

Andromache's ideal table

My favorite players are the ones who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty and really dig into the narrative. Always be bold enough to tell me what you'd Like to do and we'll see if you can succeed, but are willing to accept the will of the dice.

I love it when a player

Gets invested in their characters and the story at hand.

I think metagaming...

Is fine in certain contexts. If you as a player can argue your character would potentially know something, and you can roll high enough, I'm perfectly content to give you an edge as long as you can as play fair.

I think min/maxing...

Is honestly really funny, as long as players realize there is a min in their min/max and I will be holding you to that.
