I had the brief pleasure of meeting Michael this Spring at Austin’s small but growing gaming convention Chupacabra Con. As you can see above this recent photo was taken of him attending, showing off the latest wares from Hero (aka Champions) Games. Learned via enworld.org that Michael was well-known for being a sharp dresser, something the gaming community is rather averse to do…smart-ass/geeky T-Shirts tends to be the couture amongst us. He was a very pleasant and enthusiastic gentleman. It inspired me to buy a rulebook from him to give as a gift to one of the Champions diehards I know. Lastly, his positive energy was great enough to get me to play a special session of hims Champions game. Michael’s passion for sales and presentation also carried over to his game-mastering style. He will be sorely missed in many ways, not just at 2018’s ChupacabraCon V.
