About me
Forget random dungeons. My tables are for players who want their choices to have weight, to feel the ripple effects of their actions in a world that feels truly alive. My background in Social Sciences and Public Administration means I build worlds with depth. ⚖️ Real Consequences: Expect intricate political webs and NPCs driven by realistic motivations. Your decisions will have tangible, cascading consequences that permanently alter the world. 🏛️ Systemic Depth: You won't just clear a dungeon; you might destabilize an entire economy or spark a diplomatic crisis. We'll explore how power operates and how history is shaped by the choices of a few. 🌎 An International Storyteller As a Brazilian Game Master, I bring a unique cultural perspective to my storytelling, and a professional approach I've shared with players at events like GenCon's Portuguese track. The narratives we build are infused with a different rhythm and a global flavor. I am fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, and I foster a diverse, international community at my tables. If you are a player who craves exploration with real stakes and wants to see your character's legacy written into the fabric of a believable world, then your seat is waiting.

Creating your character

✅ Free Session 0! 📖 Your Story is the Main Plot I specialize in deep character integration. Your backstory isn't just homework; it's the engine of our campaign. We will weave your goals, fears, and history into the core of the plot. 🎬 Premium VTT Experience: I bring a full suite of professional tools to the table, including stunning, detailed maps, animated spell effects, unique voices for NPCs, and a curated atmospheric soundtrack to ensure total immersion. 🌎 A Professional, International Table As a 5-star, multi-lingual GM (he/him), I provide a stable, reliable, and inclusive game for a diverse, international community.
Homebrew rules
I like to stick to the rules for the most part, but I’m totally open to the “rule of cool” when it makes the story more exciting.

Safety
How Gabriel Olive creates a safe table
This is an inclusive and safe table. We will have a comprehensive Session 0 to discuss themes, set boundaries using tools like Lines and Veils, and ensure the game is tailored to the comfort and enjoyment of the entire group. My goal is to create a space for challenging storytelling, not uncomfortable players.
