About Alessandro

Hi! My name is Alessandro, a Brazilian who has been playing tabletop RPGs since 1988. Over the years, I’ve explored more than 145 different systems (and counting!), giving me the versatility to adapt to any playstyle and bring fresh perspectives to every table. As a Game Master, I create a welcoming space where everyone can shine. My style blends strong narratives, creative challenges, and plenty of room for roleplay, making players feel part of an epic story while staying true to the rules that keep the game fun. Professionally, I’m an advertiser with an MBA in Marketing and a background in Graphic Design, which adds creativity and structure to my games. I’m also co-creator of Muito Abaixo do Oceano (“Far Below the Ocean”), the first Brazilian RPG to use Free League’s Year Zero Engine. If you’re looking for a GM with decades of experience, passion, and a love for collaborative storytelling, I’d be honored to roll some dice with you!

I became a GM because

I became a Game Master because stories shape who I am. I always dreamed of writing a book, but RPGs opened a greater path—one where worlds breathe, characters feel real, and imagination unites people. Here, I unleash my true voice as a storyteller.

My favorite books are

My favorite books include Tolkien’s masterpiece The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Frank Herbert’s Dune, Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, Patrick Rothfuss’s The Name of the Wind, and several James Bond novels by Ian Fleming.

My favorite system of all Time is

Star Wars D6 (West End Games)

How Alessandro runs games

My games are all about telling a great story: I love roleplay, immersive storytelling, and giving players space to shape the narrative together. You can expect strong story hooks, meaningful choices, and plenty of opportunities for your character to shine. I enjoy learning about your character’s backstory and weaving it into the world we create together. Combat, when it happens, is tactical and engaging, but never drags on — I keep the pace moving so everyone stays involved. I make sure the rules support the story, not the other way around, keeping the focus on fun and collaboration. And when a final showdown or boss fight arrives, I do my best to make it exciting, memorable, and fun for everyone. Above all, I want players to feel welcome, excited, and part of something epic. Every session is about creating great memories together and telling a story that everyone will remember. I like to structure campaigns like a TV series, where all the players are also the audience of the show!

I love it when a player

I love when a player dives into their character, embracing flaws and desires, and makes bold choices that push the story forward. When they surprise even me with creativity and collaboration, it turns every session into something unforgettable.
