Mimir Interviews

Welcome to A Mimir @ Gen Con's Interviews page!

GEN CON '99 brings together a diverse crowd of gamers and game designers, and there is no better chance to have a chat with the designer of your favorite game or setting.

This year's Con brings us such Planescape luminaries such as Monte Cook, Bruce Cordell, editor Michele Carter, and Wizard's RPG Design and Development director Bill Salvicsek (he's also designer of The Diva Spark and Harbinger House) ; as well as other PS designers Richard Baker, Dale Donovan, and Skip Williams.

Also present will be Greg Peterson, Marketing director for Interplay's Black Isle Studios, and PlaneScape: Torment. (Colin McComb, story designer, will be staying at Black Isle to seeTorment through its final stretch, and will not be able to attend this years Con, dispite earlier assurances that he would be able to attend.)

Authors Troy Denning (Pages of Pain) and J. Robert King (Bloodwar Trillogy) shall be in attendence as well as some of Planescape fan's favorite artists: Scott Fisher and Tony DiTerlizzi!

Wishing you were there? Or, you were there, but that game of Magic kept you from meeting your favorite designer? Our canny cutters of Mimir.net have got a mimir-full of chant from your favorite high-ups! So scroll down to the interview of your choice, but remember to come back! We will be adding more!
