Marc Blumberg: was a member of III back when it
was still the Hero Auxiliary Corps (HAC), running such
memorable games as the Texas Rangers Champions tournaments, the
continuing saga of Justice Incorporated, Saturday Morning
Cartoon Hero, and the occasional experimental table-top game.
More recently, Marc loves to promote Live-Action Role-Playing,
and has run several one-shot LARPs in various genres.

Rich Bowers:
This is my 4th year running games at Gen Con, my 13th year
attending. I have been role playing since Dungeons and Dragons
got me started in 1975. Currently my preference is Super
Heroics, using the Champions system. All 3 of my kids attend
Gen Con and play in our weekly game at home. At Gen Con I run
The Ravens: A group of supernatural investigators in the spirit
of X-Files, and the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in
several incarnations - Modern Day, 1930's, Old West, etc.

Dave Collins: I run Courting Murder LARPs set on
various world and times. Players can actually kill other
players during the game- the deceased PC becomes a ghost so the
dead player doesn't have to leave the game and can help solve
her/his own murder.
I also run Justice Inc. - Chicago Capers is set in 1926-1927 in
a world where WWI never happened. most of the PCs have weird
talents of some sort. This next year I will be running one new
adventure while rerunning the whole series of adventures again.
My other JI campaign is New York Knights, and actually has
fairly low level superhero types

Kerry Connell: Well I have been to almost 20 years
worth of Gen Cons and been running games at well more then half
of them. Since I fully believe in the III theorem that it is
really the story that matters I have run games using several
different systems but I prefer the hero system. Past events
have included the Guard the Wake, and Twilight Sanction. This
year I will be running two games using the hero System the
Treehouse Heroes, and the Guard:2100. Come to the games but
leave the books at home ( I only bring mine for show...now I
will have to find it...)

Brian Curley:Brian is a 41 year old Linux systems
administrator for the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has a
BS in Political Science (the irony of which is not lost on
him), so when college was over he was well-qualified to flip
burgers in any of a dozen fast food restaurants. Instead he
dove in to the fast paced world of wholesale games and comic
book distribution.
Conking his head of the shallow end of the job pool, he then
went to work for the medical insurance industry and then the
Wisconsin State Patrol. For the past 14 years he has
successfully avoided the "real" world by hiding in the
sheltered halls of academia. He is happily married to Lori, and
they are quite contentedly owned by three wonderful felines:
Harry, Widget and Gleep.

Rachel Dolnik: I first started gaming with the
gateway drug of role playing; DnD. A few years later I was
introduced to the wonderful world of Champions and haven’t
left. It wasn’t until I was considered (legally anyway) an
adult that I was dragged to my first Gencon where, over dinner,
I promptly got suckered into taking care of the III website.
(It’s amazing what I’ll do for free dinner.)

Brian Grau:I have run STARSHIP XT11, THE
CHAMPIONS tournaments and have been running HORROR HERO to
date. As it stands I will most likely be running HORROR HERO
again this year. I have been playing RPG's since 1980 and have
played a variety of systems. Contributed as a playtester on
Champions 4 and helped co-write some powers for Champions 3. I
am listed as an editor on ROBOT GLADIATOR although I wouldn't
mention that.

Susan Grau:Sue has been with HAC/III since the
beginning and will be attending her 26th GenCon this year
because she’s just too stubborn to know when to quit. Known
for her forgetful nature, such as forgetting to eat or sleep
during cons, she’s just crazy enough to run III while being
sane enough to realize how lucky she is to have such a great
bunch of friends to hang out with. She’s run a number of Hero
System genres over the years, from science fiction to fantasy
to her oddly popular ‘Surprise’ event, but her main focus has
been on superhero games such as the Champions tournament,
Octagon and the Heroes of Pacifica. This year she continues
the ongoing adventures in Pacifica with a two part story
beginning with the Champions variant miniatures game “All Hell
Breaks Loose” which is followed by the role-playing event
called “Aftermath.”

I'm a long-time roleplayer and Hero System fan. Back before the
Intar-Web, I ran the Hero System email list; I used to write in
the fanzine Haymaker!, and post occasionally on the Hero boards
as well. At my first GenCon in the mid-90s, I found III (then
called HAC) and quickly fell in love with the roleplay-heavy,
system light style of game that they (er, we) tend to run.
After a few years, I started running my own game (with a
friend, Cal Rea). Psi Hero is a modern-era game, but with psi
powers -- much like "Heroes", or the "X-Men" movies. (I was
there first, darnit!) Although it has missed a year or two,
2007 marks the tenth episode; and probably the last for a bit,
as it needs a little fallow time. There's a
world description document around here somewhere if you are
interested in more detail.
Two years ago, I ran a Firefly game (as in the Joss Whedon TV
show), using the characters from the show as PCs. It was fairly
successful, so I'm doing another one of those this year and
will probably keep it up as long as people show up to play. :)
(Technically I use the Hero System for this, but there isn't
exactly a whole lot of dice rolling going on so it really
doesn't matter...)

I live in the Boston, MA area, where I also play board games
and ultimate frisbee.

Wendy Weaver: At GenCon I have GM'd Call of
Cthulhu, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and co-GM'd on the larp Port
of Hidalgo and co-wrote/GM'd the larp Salem is Burning. I like
both table top gaming and live action role playing. Thanks to
the groups in my hometown that have been my test subjects, er I
mean, guinea pigs, er I mean willing participants in madness,
er I mean Oh forget it.

Rob Wiener: Rocketed to Earth as a baby, only to
find not only did I not possess super powers, but no amount of
being exposed to radioactive bugs would give me any. Left
without the capacity to become a superhero, I chose the next
best thing and threw myself headfirst into the world of heroic
role-playing. My flare for the dramatic, love of pulp fiction
and super heroic adventure, and natural penchant for chaos drew
me to several games at Gencon. After a few years of me
infesting their games with my particular brand of mayhem, the
club made me a member. At home I am a normal person, addicted
to Heroes, Heroclix, and whose Champions home game is entering
it’s 5th year. At Gencon, I am a proud member of III, no idea
how long, or if my years as a HAC groupie counts, running
Bureau 13, The League of UNextraordinary Gentlemen, and Weird
Western Tales along with my brother and lovely fiancée.
Someday I’ll get that Wildcards LARP written…
