Rafael Hohmann (Raf)
MisCon 39 Attending Professional

Born in a castle dungeon in South America and moving to the United States at the age of six, Rafael Hohmann spent his young years reading, exploring abandoned mines, and drawing strategy maps to survive the oncoming zombie apocalypse. Writer of the best-selling dark fantasy trilogy The SunRider Saga, numerous short stories, and anthologies, he strives to write worlds filled with mysterious history, horrifying monsters, and delicious cuisine. Obsessed with fiction more so than reality, he writes epic fantasy and digitally paints monsters and soldiers. You can often find him gorging on sushi and playing video games late into the night.
