Brian's parents were Buddhist ministers. He has dual Canadian and American citizenship. For part of his childhood he lived in a ghetto in Oakland, CA. He spent much of his youth on antidepressant medication (he was told it was "to help him sleep"). Brian taught himself to program on an old Apple II+ (without a disk drive or hard drive). He has a BA in psychology and has worked as an Information Technology Consultant. Today, Brian is happily married to a cute anarchist lawyer, lives in Eureka CA, and his hobbies include cooking and digital photography. Brian has written compulsively as far back as he can remember. Whenever he tries to stop writing he gets grumpy and irritable.

Eloy's upbringing was full of moving from one place to the next (due to being huge army brat), but he currently lives in Tampa, Florida. He is a practicing Confucian and has two beautiful children (a boy and a girl). No degrees to speak of, although he has nearly completed three different ones (why is a completely different subject). In addition to his work with Vajra Enterprises, Eloy is also an administrator and editor of the white-wolf web-zine Ex Libris Nocturnis (nocturnis.net).
His first run-in with RPGs was with custom made adventures that he and his childhood friend would play to pass the time during chores. His first real taste was Palladium games, with scatterings of AD&D 2nd Edition, White Wolf, and D20 here and there throughout the years. Upon finding Vajra Enterprises and their great games, Eloy has thrown himself headfirst into Vajra's worlds and systems.

Dirk Vandereyken was born February 10, 1975. As a young man he liked to skip school quite a lot in order to secretly attend role-playing conventions overseas and practice martial arts instead. Two years after discovering The Dark Eye RPG at age 9, Dirk discovered the The Lord of the Rings trilogy and wrote his first novel, Ice, The Lost Planet, which got published to critical acclaim at age 14 (making him the youngest Belgian SF author ever).
At age 15, Dirk took on the job of Regional Director for the Role-Playing Game Association Network for Belgium and wrote his next few books, a fairy tale and a fantasy novel. Two decades later Dirk started his own RPG-fanzine, The Fighting Bard, which eventually evolved into Cerberus Too. Since then, Dirk has been working as a hypno- and psychotherapist, producer, martial arts choreographer, journalist for four different magazines, singer and movie P.R. consultant.
