Biography

aka Ben Passmore, is an important early amtgarder(joined March 1983). He is notable in a number of respects. He was the first Amtgardian to ever be illegally pummeled about the head by Aramithris. His glasses were used to ignite camp fires at the first Gathering of the Clans and his inability to modulate the volume of his voice prior to his 21st birthday allowed him to be an exceptionally effective early Reeve. He was a longtime player in the SWFFL, winning the championship several times with his team, the Passmore Gases.He is the "Ben" in the infamous Edict of Ben's Living Room. In later years, he became a staunch advocate for the census enumerator style of seduction in which he attempted to make sure no one went uncounted. His female companions are infamous, largely unstable, and deadly skillful as marksmen (or -women, they're scary, okay). Oh, yeah, he was also Amtgard's first king, a co-author of the first rulebook revision, a defender of the weak and a scholar of some renown. He is categorically not the Purple Duck, period, not, okay maybe he is, ya never know.
