Vivien Feasson is a French game designer and a translator on Call of Cthulhu and Paranoïa who likes to theorize on games sometimes. He is behind the Edo-era chambara Les Errants d’Ukiyo but also the indie Lost in the Rain, a shifting-GM storygame where you play lost children that get try to survive in a desert city. Inspired by other local designers, he discovered that you could conceive several games based on the same universe, so he launched a crowdfunding operation for another try at his “rainyverse” with Libreté, a powered-by-the-apocalypse game which was successfully published in 2017. Right now, he is trying to (finally) get his PhD, earn a living, raise his daughter, continue to play rpgs, avoid spending too much time creating an OSR version of Lost in the Rain, and promote his already-released games.
During Gauntlet Con, Vivien will be running Libreté.

Ryan Macklin fell in love with running convention games at his first Gen Con 14 years ago. That passion turned into making games—co-designing Fate and Cortex Plus games, editing on Pathfinder and for indie publishers, and making his own stuff (like the forthcoming Katanas & Trenchcoats). But Ryan always comes back to his first joy of sitting down with a few humans to tell and play out fun, dramatic stories. Unrelated, his cat is a lovable jerk.
During Gauntlet Con, Ryan will be running Katanas & Trenchcoats.
