Torment_Aslyum_BannerI’ve written a lot of stuff. Mostly games, both computer and tabletop, with some fiction and technical writing as well. Cool news: our VR Quest game, Vault of Stars, is in early access, and people are digging it! In fact, 3lb Games is doing a bunch of stuff – check it out here!

As a CRPG guy, in addition to Vault of Stars, I’m the current creative lead for the Australian philosophical post-apocalyptic CRPG Broken Roads, and formerly creative lead and lead writer for Torment: Tides of Numenera. I was a designer on Planescape: Torment, Fallout 2, Wasteland 2 and Wasteland 3, and various unannounced titles with several companies.

As a tabletop guy, I wrote for Dungeons & Dragons, co-creating the Birthright Campaign Setting, developing the Planescape setting, wrote the Complete Book of Elves, and did extensive work with Paizo’s Pathfinder Campaign Setting. You can find more details below.

Then there’s the fiction. I’ve published the ongoing Oathbreaker series of novellas, which you can find on Amazon, iBooks, and Goodreads. Yes, I’m back onto Book 3, though it’s fighting with a bunch of other things for attention.

AWARDS
† Origins Award for Dragon Mountain: Best Role-Playing Adventure of 1993.
‡ Origins Award for Birthright: Best Role-Playing Supplement of 1995.
