About Nico de Gallo
I'm an actor, voice actor, and professional show host that loves fantasy, collaborative storytelling, and world building! GMing sits perfectly at the crossroads of all those things which is why I have a blast doing this! I use different voices and dialects, and I use a combination of theater of the mind and maps to let players find out if that fireball turns that basilisk into barbecue (but your barbarian too)! Whether you're a trying to "live the fantasy" or use your archival knowledge of the system's rules to flex that noggin noodle and make some brain spaghetti, there's a safe place for you at my table.

How Nico de Gallo runs games
Since I'm an actor/voice actor, I have a lot of fun leaning into the role-play aspect of things, and I love doing different voices and dialects for NPCs. I'll even have creatures coordinate strategies with each other during combat, and I encourage my players to work together by doing the same! It's a great way to keep combat dynamic instead of becoming a mindless slog. When it comes to exploration, I can't help slipping in secret goodies and surprises for my players. I love world building and having things from different sessions in a campaign or one-shots I've run affect the story or world at large. Most importantly, I like to make sure each player has some time to shine, whether that's in the form of story beats or as a reward for ingenuity! Player creativity is what sets TTRPGs apart from other forms of gaming, so I reward that!
