Some of the best artists are the ones that are creating something new that no one has thought of before. Let’s talk to one now! Gabriel Valentin, the writer of Digital Lizards of Doom, possesses long standing passions for composition and storytelling. When it comes to pop culture, he describes himself as a “hopeless romantic”, the rose petals on the bed, champagne in the ice bucket, and of course a little mood lighting before stocking up on potions and heading into the next dungeon kind of guy.
