My Story: The Heart Behind the Monsters

My name is Derrick Bruno, and my life has been defined by two things: hard work and a relentless passion for storytelling through art. I’ve spent years in the grind—working every role from dishwasher and cook to warehouse manager—but no matter how long the shift, I always came home to my true calling: Character Design and Illustration.

I earned my degree in Traditional Animation and Graphic Design because I believe in the power of a well-crafted creature to spark the imagination. I’ve always been fascinated by the "what ifs" of high fantasy and mythology, and I wanted to channel that energy into something tangible.

The Spark of War

Growing up, I loved the classic game of War. It was simple, competitive, and accessible. However, as an artist, I felt it was missing the visual excitement and tactical depth that modern players crave. I created Monsters of War to bridge that gap—taking the core mechanics I loved as a child and elevating them with high-stakes combat, mythical creatures, and the Action Packed "Gambit" system.

A Family Legacy

This project isn't just a business venture; it’s personal. As a single father, I’ve seen firsthand how games can bring people together. I built this game to share my love for mythical monsters and epic battles with my own children, and seeing the joy it brings them at the kitchen table is what pushed me to share it with the world.

I’ve done it all and seen it all in the professional world, and now I’m ready to show you what I have to offer as a creator. Monsters of War is my heart on a card—a blend of gritty determination and fantastical wonder.

I invite you to join me on this journey to bring these creatures to life. Let’s make every "Day of War" legendary.
