Kyle is a human being experiencing this life in Northern Minnesota. He has a lot more creativity than artistic talent, but he is doing the best he can with what he has. Kyle says he is more interested in the experience of doing something creative than the results. He is currently focusing on supplements for the Weird Heroes of Public Access RPG under the moniker of Vampyre Cinema.

1 hr 33 min - 107 Philip Reed has worked on EVERYTHING (almost)
Philip Reed loves to create stuff and things, from roleplaying game supplements to music to whatever sounds fun at that exact moment in time. He can often be found working when he should be sleeping. He has been doing this for more than 30 years, and chances are you have played something he had his hands on. I feel in love with his work through Frag, and I've loved his presence since he was super kind to me years ago! Enjoy!
