About Carlos C. Cox

I am South American from Brazil, I've worked as an English - Brazilian Portuguese translator for 8 years, but TTRPGs are a big part of my identity since I was 9 years old. So now I'm working with something that I love as a professional DM. I am very passionate about creating awesome stories together with my players and seeing them change the world with their deeds. I am super excited about this career as I get to spend all my time working on my campaigns without feeling guilty about it ^_^

How Carlos C. Cox runs games

I enjoy roleplaying NPCs from the lowliest peasant to the most famous, and I do voices but in a very practical way (not trying to be Matt Mercer here, just playing the game). And, I also enjoy tactical combat with as much or as little crunch as fits the party (every party is different). I can be fully by-the-book or more loosey-goosey (whatever the party likes best), and I always reward creativity, but not the point where it's "everything goes" either. I can be as railroady as the party wishes me to be, and will gladly adapt to unscripted sandboxy play at all times. From experience it takes a while for a party to bond enough and players to feel comfortable to go off-rails, it is an evolving relationship. Some groups really just want to stay on track and enjoy the scenery with small chunks of sightseeing before taking another train, and that is a completely valid way of playing too. I enjoy both seeing where the players lead and doing the work to crafting a narrative for players to experience what I come up with, as long as players have fun, I'll be having fun.
