About Me
Hey there! I'm Vinny Colantuoni, your friendly neighborhood TTRPG enthusiast and freelance creator!Everyone loves a good lore drop: I was born and raised in New Jersey (never left), graduated college with dual degrees in Communication Studies and Philosophy, and have been slinging dice across tables since 2018. Starting in 2020, I have worked as a SaaS Customer Support professional, most recently as the head of Customer Success at Alchemy RPG, a Virtual Tabletop with a unique focus on cinematic immersion and theater-of-the-mind gameplay.Behind the screen, I've spent years conjuring worlds and weaving epic tales at my own tables. These experiences have had a profound impact on my life, and I'm always looking for opportunities to deliver similar experiences to others.
Writing
From crafting compelling narratives, building intricate worlds, or defining memorable characters, I specialize in weaving tales to keep the entire table engaged and attentive.
Editing
Whether it’s a cut-and-dry copy edit, a deeper developmental edit, or proofreading, I provide feedback tailored to the project in a way that feels natural to the tone of the product and your company.
Design
The strengths of different TTRPG systems out there often invite particular strengths and narratives, and there’s nothing I enjoy more than diving deep and designing ways to enhance tabletop gameplay in fun and exciting ways!

Lore of Aetherra: Dark Symmetry
Designer | Editor (Developmental)
Published by Alchemy RPG & Hitpoint Press
Dark Symmetry is a comprehensive 350-page 5e sourcebook featuring a complete setting and adventure. Adventurers explore the perils of the isolated underwater city of Chrysalea from levels 5 to 10 as they learn the mysteries of the science-fantasy world of Aetherra.I played a significant role in the developmental editing of this book. My contributions can be found on nearly every page, with the bulk of my work focused on the adventure itself as well as the design of the premade characters, aetherforging, magic items, and monster/NPC stat blocks.
Treatments: An Unofficial Vast Grimm Supplement
Writer | Designer
Vast Grimm Horde
Vast Grimm is a space horror TTRPG that utilizes the foundational rules of the Mörk Borg system. The supplement, Treatments, was crafted specifically for the Boundless Torments Game Jam, organized by Brian Colin of Infinite Black, the game's creator.This project was entirely self-driven, from conception to execution. I conceptualized the supplement, authored the content, and meticulously laid out the design single-handedly as my submission.
