A GM, or "game master," is
the person who runs a role-playing game session for other players. In
Solar Echoes, we call the GM an MC, or "Mission Controller."
The role of a GM in any RPG is to tell a story, make sure game rules
are followed, act out any of the characters that players encounter
during the game, and manage all game challenges, such as combat or
hacking. Being a GM can be a very demanding challenge, but if you
like telling stories and presenting exciting encounters to players,
it can be more fun than being a player, in my opinion. If you've ever
wondered what it might be like to be a movie director, GMing an RPG
is a similar experience (I've directed several short films, and there
are a lot of parallels.) But what does it take to be a good GM?...
