About Rafael
👦🏽 He/Him 🇧🇷 Brazilian Hey, how you doing? My name is Rafael (or Rafe if that’s easier!), and I’m a 21-year-old Computer Science student looking to become a better GM while feeding my crippling dice addiction! How did I end up here? I love TTRPGs a bit too much, and with home games being hard to schedule, I wasn’t getting as much D&D as I wanted. Then, out of nowhere, a Reddit post came down from the heavens and showed me this was something I could do! I’m aiming to improve as a GM and find a group of players who love the game as much as I do so we can create something amazing together. I wouldn’t call myself a professional GM, but I’m more than willing to take feedback and tailor the experience for the group. So please, share your thoughts! No tolerance for the intolerant: I won’t hesitate to kick anyone for bigotry. I hope we can have a great time and craft a memorable game together!

I became a GM because
Nobody else would, mostly. I was introduced to TTRPGs in high school by a group of friends, ended up getting hooked so I looked for games online and just never stopped!
How Rafael runs games
To me, roleplaying is the best part of the game. The most memorable moments come from characters' choices and relationships coming together, creating emotional or epic story beats. I design my games so that your decisions have real impact. NPCs will feel like real people with their own emotions and agendas, reacting to your choices in meaningful ways and driving the story forward. What to Expect: 🎠Roleplay-Focused Gameplay: Roleplaying is my favorite part of the game, and there will be plenty of it! You’ll have ample time and opportunity to interact with NPCs and fellow PCs, deepening your connections and weaving a story you genuinely want to be a part of and care about. Your character’s relationships and choices will shape the narrative in meaningful, lasting ways. 🎶 Intertwining Narratives: There’s nothing quite like seeing your backstory woven into the plot. I love to intertwine the main story with character's backgrounds, whether through a relevant NPC, a personal goal, or a hidden secret waiting to be uncovered. This gives players that extra motivation to engage with the story and helps create something truly unique. Plus, it’s just really cool! ⚖️ Big Choices, Real Consequences: Your actions will shape not only your character’s fate but also the world around you. There are countless ways to solve problems, some that even I might not anticipate! You can expect moral dilemmas and tough choices that will push your character to grow and evolve as the campaign progresses. ⚔️ Balanced Combat & Exploration: While roleplay drives the game, expect a fair amount of meaningful combat and exploration. Battles come with a risk of death and will test your strategy and adaptability, while exploration will uncover the mysteries and wonders of the world, from ancient ruins to dangerous wildernesses.
