Author & Dungeon Master
About Me
I have been a Dungeon Master and tabletop roleplayer since 1998, and for more than twenty-five years I have kept a constant passion for Dungeons & Dragons and for creating original content designed for real use at the table. Over time, I have developed many kinds of adventures, from short one-shots to side quests, from narrative modules to broader campaign ideas, always with special attention to the overall quality of play.
As an author, I like building material that feels evocative but also practical: content that is ready to use, easy to read, and genuinely helpful for the DM. Roleplay has always been one of the aspects I enjoy most, but over the years I have also worked a lot on homebrew systems, narrative structure, encounters, settings, and tools able to support very different tones, from serious to lighter, from mysterious to more adventurous.
THE ARCANE SHOP was born from that very experience: turning years of ideas, sessions, table testing, and design work into polished and versatile products for people looking for D&D material that combines atmosphere, playability, and identity.
Live and Online Sessions
Alongside content creation, I am also available as a Dungeon Master for Hire for live sessions in Milan and online. For interested groups, I offer a free introductory mini one-shot lasting 2–3 sessions, ideal for creating the right chemistry at the table before moving into longer adventures.

THE ARCANE SHOP will grow around three main editorial lines: quick adventures, high-atmosphere modules, and practical tools for DMs and groups who want to expand their game experience.
One-shots and Short Quests
Self-contained adventures and side quests that are easy to add to existing campaigns or play across just a few sessions.
Narrative Modules
Content with strong identity, curated atmosphere, and a clear structure, designed to support the DM without slowing down the table.
Homebrew and Tools
Original ideas, support systems, practical prompts, and useful material to expand your game with more depth and flexibility.
Publications
Some products are already available, and the catalog will continue to grow over time. Here you can find a compact showcase of the main titles, while the full collection is available on the dedicated page.
Featured Title
The Definitive Bastion Compendium for D&D 5e
The first major editorial pillar of the catalog: a premium compendium dedicated to Bastions, designed to turn them into a living, strategic, and narrative part of the game experience.
Each section is designed to offer practical tools, narrative prompts, and meaningful progression, transforming the Bastion into a true extension of the campaign rather than a simple secondary rule.
Bastion Compendium
A complete modular expansion dedicated to Bastions, designed to deepen the game experience and offer more narrative and strategic possibilities.

Special Thanks
Every project begins with an idea, but it truly comes to life thanks to the people who stay beside us throughout the journey.
A special thank you goes to my wife Marta, for always supporting me, putting up with me, and standing by my side in this adventure, even in those moments when ideas, sessions, and projects seemed never-ending.
My heartfelt thanks also go to my sister-in-law Ceci, my brother-in-law Grisu, and my brother Andre, who always encouraged me to believe in this dream and turn it into something real.
A huge thank you also goes to my closest friends — my second family — Piolo, Gibo, Jim, Ryoga, Gnomo, Paolino, Nadia, Dementelale, and Marcello, who over all these years brought my ideas to life at the table, tested them, improved them, and helped me shape them into the products that now take form within THE ARCANE SHOP.
Without you, many of these stories would never have made it this far.
