About Marcos André

My name is Marcos André, I am a veteran Game Master from Brazil with over six years of experience. Though I am most experienced with Dungeons and Dragons 5e, I have been prioritizing simpler systems like DnD B/X (and its retro clone Old-School Essentials). When it comes to running my games, I always start with a session 0 to establish what is to be expected from my players and the campaign. My games have the unfortunate tendency to derail almost immediately, almost always due to the dice deciding what would be funnier to no fault of the players.

Working on my own setting and other projects, such as an RPG system I am currently developing called 666 Ways to Kill the Devil.

How Marcos André runs games

Though my games rarely take a heroic tone from the beginning, they do tend to go towards a more "Epic" direction, be it due to an escalation of the threats due to player actions or the natural development of the narrative that has formed.

Featured Prompts

I once ran a session...

Where the players eliminated the main antagonist in their first meeting by rage baiting them incredibly hard.

My favorite trope is...

The child/pet the group adopted slowly becomes incredibly powerful

When it comes to voices

I will do my best to give the character interesting voices, except if the fitting voice will cause me to lose my actual voice, such as deep rough voices, like that of a smoker.

Marcos André's ideal table

My tables have a very casual tone to them as I try my best to create a friendly environment for all the players, it is not uncommon for casual conversations to be had during session downtimes.

Featured Prompts

I am for a vibe that's...

More casual and friendly, though I do expect a fair bit of dedication towards the game from my players.

I think min/maxing...

I don't particularly enjoy running games to min/maxing players, and would rather such be avoided.

My table is not the place for...

Disrespect and bigotry towards others, any act of this kind will result in immediate removal.
