"I hear the only title worth receiving is 'Grixnificent'." - Brennon Viridian
Biography
Grix began playing in 2002 when he helped found the Shire of Crimson Wood under Burning Lands in Rohnert Park, CA. Having eventually been an active member of many of the California parks, Grix was also heavily involved in the formation of the Principality of Westmarch. Grix moved to the Iron Mountains in early 2011.
Starting out with garbing and equipment making, Grix's first passion in Amtgard was crafting. Always being excited to learn something new, he turned his interests more towards leatherworking and silversmithing with the help of some fantastic mentors. Grix also quickly picked up an interest in writing and running battlegames and creating online tools for parks and kingdoms, including a number of websites and a reign-long online boardgame for Iron Mountains that interfaced with the ORK. Those interests lead to a desire to serve in a leadership capacity. Grix has held every office except regent at both local and kingdom levels, and has helped write corpora for Westmarch and Iron Mountains.
Grix enjoys promoting game-wide projects. He sits on the Amtgard Food Fight Executive Committee, is the layout artist for the Amtgard V8 rulebook and Dor Un Avathar, and has served as an Amtgard Ombudsman.
These days, Grix helps out anywhere he can while focusing on improving his fighting. He is a acknowledged gifted psychic and reads the tarot cards.
