About GM Herc

I have been a dm for 3 years now. I recently finished my tenure as an educator and am looking to fill as much time with DMing as possible I have been a DM for a Westmarch and home games with experience in both one-shots and campaigns, for every level and most classes and species. I am also a huge nerd overall, having been a lover of Potter, LotR and the Hunger Games since I was young. As well as DMing, I have played as Druids, Monks, Wizards, Paladins, Bards and Artificers, so I have a fairly rounded personal love of different play-styles

How GM Herc runs games

I am able to run for all levels, Classes and Species. I can make combats which are enticing to players, requiring problem-solving, smart playing and use of resources. Some of these also have alternate endings to aid in story growth. I really enjoy role-playing and fleshing out the stories of characters. I work with players on their characters and aim to have the stories unfold so they feel they are an important part of my games (which they are). To aid the role-playing I add accents and dialects to help characters come to life. I also add subtle mechanics to encourage role-playing. I focus on player enjoyment and story development instead of rulebooks. My games intend to captivate while staying within the parameters of player boundaries

Rules are...

Very useful for most situations, but I will make my own ruling in niche contexts

When it comes to voices

I will add different dialects as needed, usually with accuracy and at the very least, notability.

GM Herc's ideal table

My table is easy-going and inclusive. Each player has a chance to express their character. Whether you act, describe our type out, it works and I make sure people sent interrupted. We can disagree but respect is always non-negotiable between all members I like adding rp to make the story feel like it naturally evolves, and world-building so you feel like the characters important.

I am for a vibe that's...

Just a nice feel that everybody enjoys and has fun with. We're working together to make a story, so we all need to be enjoying the experience and hopefully the result

I think metagaming...

Is something that happens naturally, but will not impact the game itself
