    • Colin Chapman

      My real name is, not surprisingly, Colin Chapman.

      Born atop a glass mountain, tiny fists clutching the polyhedral dice of the gods, now grown into a bronzed titan of a man... doesn't describe me at all. Nope, I'm a well-mannered Englishman, husband, father, corruptor of young minds, er, teacher, and long-standing rpg freelancer. Here's a listing of the rpgs books I've been involved with to date, in ways large and small:

      I've been roleplaying since my Design & Technology teacher introduced me to D&D back when I was ten, and now, 25 years on, I run an rpg club at the school in which I teach. My life came full circle it seems.

      What rpgs have I played? Bloody hell, too damn many to list. Far, far too damn many. You name it, there's a good chance I've read, run or played it at some point, though I have a marked preference for straightforward systems that play quickly and easily; too much tactical or rules crunch, or a reliance on miniatures and battlemats, afflicts me with all the symptoms of narcolepsy.

      Why do I like the look of Shard? I have always loved exotic settings (hell, look at my involvement with Talislanta), and have always loved the concept of anthropomorphic animals as races since the joyful days of running TMNT & Other Strangeness back in the day.

      cheers!

    • Yes indeed! Welcome Colin!

      My friend, that is an amazingly impressive list of works you've been involved with, and it's an honor that you've found our efforts of interest. Hopefully SHARD will find a good place among such noble cousins!

      By the way, one of our own playtesters has REALLY enjoyed the "All Flesh Must Be Eaten" products,..and is an insufferable fan of all things 'zombie' (am I allowed to use the 'zed' word? :D)...

      I look forward to enjoying even more interaction with you once you've had a chance to check us out!

      Scottie ^^
