Andrew Oakley has been playing RPGs since childhood in the 1970s with D&D 2nd Edition. He usually prefers systems with light rules but thinks that the rich backstory of Ars Magica, plus its unique and highly flexible spellcasting system, is well worth making an exception for. Andrew also wrote a large part of the Agent's Handbook for the Laundry Files paranormal secret service RPG.
He lives on the outskirts of Tewkesbury about 15 minutes' drive from Grand Tribunal's Gas Green Cheltenham venue, with his wife, primary-age daughter and two goblins... er, twin toddlers.
Andrew works as a Software Development Manager for a government agency in Cheltenham (no, not that one, and yes, he is allowed to talk about it). His other interests include Linux, electronic music, the countryside and getting an unbroken night's sleep, uninterrupted by goblin visitations.
Stationery, tea & coffee, the Friday afternoon meet & greet, the Saturday evening take-away food orders and other supplies for Grand Tribunal Cheltenham are organised by Andrew. Basically all the boring stuff that doesn't involve actual roleplaying. He also happens to drive a car and is happy to be an emergency contact on his mobile 07711 891061 (international +44-7711-891061 ).
Andrew is also the webmaster for this website and wiki, which runs on his server, based at the Blue Square data centre near London. You can email him: andrew@aoakley.com
