Almost five years ago, Juan introduced me to the world of tabletop RPGs, and I've been hooked ever since. From those first clumsy steps as a total beginner to becoming a full-fledged TTRPG nerd, he's been a patient guide and an endlessly creative storyteller. Whether solving mysteries in Vaesen, surviving the depths of Shadowdark RPG, or navigating the tangled webs of Vampire: The Masquerade, Juan always brings worlds to life in a way that makes every session something to look forward to. His games strike the perfect balance between challenge, humor, and unforgettable moments. I couldn't ask for a better GM or a better group to share these stories with—week after week, year after year.
