About me
You see a lonely figure sitting in a dark corner of the tavern, a large dark blue hood conceals his face but as he lifts the pint to take a sip of beer you glimpse a chin covered in black beard. He seems to notice you as well, and with a smug grin on his face he removes the hood and gestures to approach him. He speaks with a welcoming but sure voice and a "slight" Italian accent: "You are adventurers, aren't you? You look capable of looking after yourselves and I might have a job just right for you." As you walk towards his table he gestures the four seats in front of him as he continues:" If you are looking for adventure, glory and thrill you've come to the right place...But be warned! I like to DM like a martial artist: well prepared but ready to think on my feet..." "See that waitress over there?" You turn in the direction he is pointing to. "Now she has a name and a backstory. Brumilda was paid to poison your drinks to expunge an old debt his gambling-addict father owed to some unsavory people." 'What are you going to do? Sips more beer "You have 3 rounds to talk about it before she comes over with your drinks, but be careful. People are listening"
GM Style
My DMing style is: be prepared, but think on your feet. I have many years of experience and love when players find creative ways to outsmart me! I'm very much into roleplay and crunchy (but not too much) systems. I'm going to be the director of your story but also the referee, and I don't shy away from feedback nor to talk with the players about expectation and proper behaviors at the table. I constantly keep my self up to date with tips and tricks, practice voice acting and collect online tools and PDFs to improve the over all experience that I give to my players.

Fazio is a very skilled and wise DM. He embrace the real meaning of Role Playing, creating an environment of pure fun, entertainment and fizzy challenges. The passion is his strength point, everything is cared till the smallest details and measured to maintain a good balance between challenge and fun. He crates a magic type of flow and an immersive environment. Funny characters, cameos and travels through the planes with the right amount of mystery and lore information that every enemy or NPC deserves. Best both for newbies and for expert players with balanced fights and balanced quests, investigations and/or heists.
Costanza
Fazio is such a fun and experienced DM! I'm a newbie to rpg but I felt like he can truly make players feel at ease and can easily adjust to different levels of player's experience, so I'd suggest him both to beginners and advanced players. He knows the rules very well but he's not too rigid: when we played I've always felt like he really cared about making everyone have fun and enjoy the game over technicalities. Moreover, he's a natural at storytelling and an enthusiastic and easy-going narrator - highly recommended!

I've been playing with Fazio as a Dungeon Master for a year, he's always prepared and it's difficult to catch him off guard. He has a lot of maps and always tries his best to give players a great experience on all levels. I also recommend it to anyone who is new to D&D

Fazio simply created a unique plot out of his pure imagination in few hours, setting it in a Harry Potter 's lore world of his own creation with very peculiar and unconventional sources of interpretation, game and interaction among players. His knowledge of the game's rules, mixed to a keen sense of humor and a large range of creativity and spontaneity which he allows for, guaranteed a very funny and yet much interesting plot. To play again with, no doubt.
