About Nethersall

Hello there, I am Dave (yes another one :D) and I have joined StartPlaying community to expand my horizon. On the other hand I am a GM for more than a decade now doing professional games on Roll20 since 2018, having more than 10 thousand hours in it, but still with the same passionate fire that is burning from the very start. While I adore many rpg settings, I am always drawn back to the "medieval fantasy" ones and such mainly focusing on D&D with its current 5 edition. My strong suits include that I am the kind of GM who gets annoyed by his own mistakes and continously tries to evolve to make it a better game for both my players and myself. While one of my weakpoint is voice acting, which though sometimes I try it is a forever lacking department. I live in Hungary and such as I am in the CET timezone, but due to focusing only on this as my work and hobby, I might host games at times based on more of the players' need.

I became a GM because

I loved stories enough to sit down and create new ones with others.

My favorite books are

Rick Riordan - Percy Jackson Robin Hobb - Realm of the Elderlings Sarah J. Mass - Glass Throne J. K. Rowling - Harry Potter

When I'm not running games I'm...

probably binge-watching a series or playing games. Potentially actually doing something more responsible... :D

How Nethersall runs games

I enjoy stories. Almost all kinds of stories. Thanks to that I like to engage in collaborative story telling with a focus on character development and narrative exploration. Some level of questionable morality and drama is essential in my games. I tend to lean towards the more serious, immersive gameplay while supporting the occasional player shenanigans. Representing more a fun personality of a character instead of being a joke itself. While having the role-play and story parts in focus, I never neglect the other pillars of exploration and combat. I wasn't yet considered bloodthirsty, but I always state at campaign starts, that "I am a servant of the dice rolls", so I won't pull back punches on you, or fudge a dice roll in my games.

I deal with rules issues by...

if its simple or small with a quick consideration, otherwise an afterwards discussion where I see the group's opinion about the ruling and make a decision based on facts. Sometimes I even retract a ruling once I realize I made a mistake.

My games focus on...

role-play centered elements and moral dilemmas.

Rules are...

lassos to keep our imagination not run amok.

Nethersall's ideal table

I am for a vibe that's...

eminates the aura of wanting to be here. :D The one where people can get excited over big or small things alike, because it is not just for passing the time, but because people get together as they "want this game to happen".

I love it when a player

realizes their characters' role-play potential.
