About Rodrigo Melendez

I've been playing D&D 5e since 2018, as a player here and there but I've been consistently dming for friends for about a year now, I've always had a passion for storytelling and helping people express themselves through stories I know and understand tabletop games are the perfect outlet for it.

I got started GMing...

After Highschool, I had played dnd with some friends and wanted to introduce my college friends into it, since no one else knew how to play I started Gming for them and have continued to Gm for the rest of my friends since then.

How Rodrigo Melendez runs games

I enjoy roleplaying above all, I tend to craft combat as a performance more than specific number crunching and slow tactical drags. I am pretty open about character choices and homebrew, as long as it carries the vision of your character through into the game.

My games focus on...

Storytelling,f rom character choices in visuals, actions and personality to how they engage in combat and how it all drives to the main points of the story. I love playing with dualities and you will see me incorporate that a lot.

Rodrigo Melendez's ideal table

Improv meets theater, I like to think of my tables as friends sitting around a campfire telling stories, I enjoy the rawness of putting ideas out there and having the next person follow through with them.

I think min/maxing...

is okay! I understand wanting to have the dice favor your choices, since it's a game at the end of the day, I tend to min/max for my characters too
