R.E. Davis hails from a college town in Texas, where he grew up exposed to a weird mix of old-fashioned living and big-city dreaming. Always one for the weird, he spent much of his youth playing fantasy games, listening to scary music, and reading dystopian fiction and occult literature. His adulthood hasn't changed that. He has worn many labels: office IT guy, gas station clerk, costume shop manager, game store owner, communications major, and now father and husband. He is also the "resident grumpus" of the ChaosGrenade game blog.
