About us

Four hands, two heads, a shared love for all kinds of stories... And labyrinths.

Maria: the Hands

Maria Guarneri è nata e cresciuta a Merate, ma il suo percorso artistico ha preso forma soprattutto a Milano, tra l’Accademia di Brera e quella del Teatro alla Scala. Spaziare tra le discipline, dal disegno all’oreficeria, passando per la sartoria, è sempre stata la sua vocazione e nella scenografia ha trovato un crocevia per i suoi molteplici interessi. Appassionata di fumetti e libri illustrati, incontrando Oscar è incappata nelle parole giuste da circondare con disegni nelle tecniche più disparate. Oltre a trovare le proprie come game designer.

Graphics & Art

Maria Guarneri's artistic journey mostly took place in Milan, between the Brera Academy of Fine Arts and the Teatro Alla Scala. She's always enjoyed dipping her toes in many different crafts, ranging from drawing to goldsmithing to dressmaking, and stagecraft has become the point of convergence for her kaleidoscope of interests. A lover of comics and illustrated books, when she met Oscar she stumbled into the right words to surround with her pictures, painted with the most disparate techniques. Then she found her own, as a game designer.

Oscar: the Ink

Writing & Publishing line

Born in Lecco in 1984, Oscar Biffi lives and writes on the banks of river Adda. As a child he loved to play with rocks. His parents proudly thought they'd found an heir to the distinguished tradition of masonry, passed down from father to son in the valleys of Bergamo… In truth he was just naming the pebbles, to make them all part of a story. Ever since then he's never kicked that habit, carefully studying plots and characters until he got a degree in Literature at Università degli Studi di Bergamo, then striking out on his own to work on roleplaying games, short stories and novels.

Plus another red thread, to find our way around every language in the world. More or less.

Chiara: the Voice

Editing & Translation

Chiara Locatelli is a professional escapist as well as a language enthusiast. Her first exercise in translation was trying to convey her daydreams to the real world; then she discovered there were lots of countries besides the ones in her own head, and she's never stopped marveling at what she finds beyond the borders. She graduated in Foreign Languages and Literatures at Università degli Studi di Bergamo, and works as a freelance translator for gaming associations and publishing houses. Her goal is to build bridges between different ways of playing and dreaming.
