I started roleplaying with DaS Schwarze AugE in Germany's most popular tabletop RPG at 12 years old, discovered a starter box while shopping for books during high school. I was hooked by RPGs from then until now and have released two indie games since moving to Portland, Oregon in 2000 where the Forge (indie community) became available; my first major release is Beast Hunters which features Final Fantasy influences like Meridian's main character can go on a journey through Wonderland-like worlds as he tries to win back his love.
