We all live in Finland, Europe, and are born in 1976. Janne and Tommi are twins, and we've been friends with Mikko since 1996 when we met him in the military (Finland has compulsory military service for men). Tommi and Janne have graduated from Helsinki University of Technology (Licentiate of Technology in Engineering), and Mikko is studying biology and paleonthology at the University of Helsinki.


History in Games and Fantasy Stories

Over the years, Tommi and Janne have been avid computer gamers, roleplayers, and card gamers. Adventure RPGs, such as Ultima IV, Ultima V, Fallout series, and Alone in the Dark have been our favorites. Tommi has also been an active member of a Diablo II community at the Amazon Basin and the Lurker Lounge, and he has written several technical articles on the game, to which Blizzard Entertainment has provided links in their official strategy guide. Our roleplaying games have included D&D, AD&D 1st and 2nd edition, Call of Cthulhu, D&D 3d edition, and many others games. It is greatly from these games where our love for stories comes from. We have also played Magic the Gathering for some five years during 1995-2000 (still got a huge load of cards!). Mikko is an avid fantasy enthousiast and has read all of J.R.R. Tolkien's works plus countless other works. History and mythology are his specialties. He was a player in the roleplaying adventures kept by me or my brother in the past. H.P. Lovecraft and his Cthulhu Mythos has been a great inspiration to all of us, and Tommi even wrote an essay on him in the matriculum examination. 8)
