About Julián the GM

# About Me I've been playing and GMing tabletop RPGs for over 15 years, exploring more than 100 different systems along the way. While I enjoy trying new games, I always come back to narrative-focused RPGs like Dungeon World, Masks, Blades in the Dark and other indie gems that put the characters and their relationships at the heart of the story. For me, the best RPG moments aren't the ones I planned, they're the ones we create together. I love collaborative storytelling, encouraging players to build on each other's ideas, take narrative risks, and shape the world alongside me. Whether it's a one-shot or a short campaign, my goal is for everyone to leave the table feeling like they helped create a story worth remembering. Creating a welcoming table is just as important as telling a great story. I use safety tools, Session Zero when appropriate, and open communication to make sure every player feels comfortable, included, and able to shine. I always try to make sure everyone gets their moment in the spotlight and leaves the session excited for the next adventure. If you're looking for character-driven stories, collaborative creativity, and a GM who's just as excited by your ideas as you are, I'd love to have you at my table.

People are always surprised when I tell them

People are always surprised when I tell them I know 100+ RPG systems—and I still love throwing away my notes when the players come up with a better idea.

When I'm not running games I'm...

When I'm not GMing, I'm programming, convincing friends to play "just one more" board game, or organizing events for the Málaga RPG community. I love bringing people together through great games.

How Julián the GM runs games

I'm a big believer that the best RPG moments can't be planned, they happen when players build on each other's ideas. My games focus on collaborative storytelling, memorable characters, and giving players meaningful choices that shape the narrative. I love asking questions, saying "yes, and...", and watching the table create something none of us expected. You'll find plenty of roleplay, shared worldbuilding, and opportunities for every character to shine. I always keep an eye on the spotlight, making sure everyone has a chance to contribute and feel like an important part of the story. Whether you're a veteran or it's your very first RPG, my goal is simple: create a table where everyone feels welcome, safe, and excited to come back for the next adventure.
