Bustard, Jason: - Jason grew up (mostly) in central California, surrounded by rolling hills, wheat fields, and grapevines. He has been creating worlds for himself and his friends for decades, and is a gigantic nerd for everything sci-fi and fantasy related. Role-playing games, board games, video games and cooking are just a few of his many hobbies. He currently lives near Portland, OR, in a muli-generational home with his wife, two kids, two in-laws, and a neurotic bernadoodle.
