LUCA MAGOROSSO LEURINI
Luca “Redmage” was born in Cagliari, class of 1987. From a very young age, he became passionate about writing and fine arts, and then got bogged down in associationism, founding the D7 – Association for RPGs in Sardinia – in 2014.
Passionate about role-playing games from an early age, starting with italian RPG “La Storia Ancestrale”, he persists in frequenting artists, which fascinate him to the point of being drawn to several editions of Lucca Comics and Games. After taking home a few prizes in creative writing, role-playing game mastering, and advertising graphics competitions, he ended up stealing first place in the 2021 Quickstarter award competition organised by Tambù publishing, with the project of a bleak mutated future called 2220. He is now obsessed and won’t stop writing. For the past two years, he has been living and working in the dystopian urban landscape of Brescia.

ANTONIO SCALAS
With (alas!) more than 30 years’ experience in role-playing games behind him, Antonio (born in 1981) also has to his credit the publication of a fantasy novel, entitled Veidarmál, plus a second novel in the pipeline, numerous short stories in the drawer and a setting/hack worthy of Sisyphus;
he collaborates with an alternative culture magazine and has many other projects more that may or may not ever see the light. He swears, however, that he will never publish a collection of poems.
In his spare time he earns a living as an engineer.
