About OSRJuan

I started playing D&D in the ‘80s, back in the 4th grade. For me, the game was a way to step into the worlds of the books I loved—Fritz Leiber, R.E. Howard, Tolkien, Lloyd Alexander. That sense of adventure, danger, and discovery has stuck with me ever since. I prefer OSR-style games for their simplicity, challenge, and emphasis on player creativity over character sheet mechanics. That said, I run my tables with an open and inclusive mindset. Everyone deserves a seat at the table, and I believe in equal rights for all. If you're looking for a game that embraces classic adventure, player-driven problem-solving, and a welcoming environment, let’s roll some dice. Checkout my YouTube link for some amazingly amateur-level videos opining on my approach to TTRPGs and life in general.

How OSRJuan runs games

I run sandbox-style games where player choices drive the story. Expect a world full of opportunities, consequences, and meaningful interactions. My focus is on character-driven roleplay and cinematic combat—fast, intense, and high-stakes. Inspired by the pulpy worlds of Fritz Leiber and Robert E. Howard, my settings are gritty, dangerous, and full of intrigue. I follow The Lazy Dungeon Master approach, prepping key elements like character motivations, fantastic locations, and hidden secrets. This keeps sessions flexible, immersive, and responsive to player decisions. If you want an unpredictable, story-driven game with real impact, let's play.
