Author Biographies

Christian Andersen lives in Denmark. He is involved in planning Rego Auram devices, and to a lesser degree also Creo and Perdo Ignem, used in the construction of centers of medical science. He dedicates his part of this book to his family: Lene, Robert, and Laura.

Jason Brennan lives in Kingston Ontario. This is the first Ars Magica book he's written for and he'd like to thank David Chart and the other authors for making it such an enjoyable experience. His chapter is dedicated to the multitude of felines who've insinuated themselves into his life over the years and, in doing so, helped to inspire his chapter's antagonists and their powers.

Richard Love lives in New Zealand. He worries that the river behind his house will flood, but fortunately his wonderful partner Paula makes regular offerings of thanks and appeasement to the natural spirits on the solstices. Richard thanks Malcolm Harbrow for running the excellent scenario that was mangled into Salvation.

In past lives, David MacGregor has traveled the Great Lakes region as an I.T. trainer, a human resource manager, and a food service representative. Currently, he is a full time stay-at-home dad and part-time writer for Ars Magica. He gratefully dedicates this writing to his ever-patient wife and long-napping daughter.

Xavier Requejo is a grog in the Barcelona covenant. He works as a consultant for the Rego Auram infrastructure of the city, which mundanes call "an airport." Recently he has been feeling an urge to ask the magi about their views on supernatural creatures, but he doesn't know exactly why. He dedicates his chapter to his gaming troupe and especially to Ricard Prats, who introduced him to Ars Magica in the 90s.
