Jeff Leason has written, designed, edited, developed, and playtested dozens and dozens of games and supplements. His very first project at TSR was to be on the Dungeon Masters Guide editing and development team - quite a tall order! According to Jeff, Gary's prose and use of language was challenging to he and his fellow proof readers, "...but we soon got accustomed to Gary’s liturgy of archaic ideophones and aphorisms. Working on the DMG was enriching to say the least!" Most notably Jeff was a co-designer on the legendary Lost Tamoachan collector's edition and the final published version, C1 The Hidden Shrine of Tamachoan with Harold Johnson. Also, his character Phoebus, a fighter reincarnated into a lizard man, appears in the Rogues Gallery and is probably the coolest character concept in the entire book!

After his time at TSR, Jeff went on to work at Mayfair Games for several years, again, writing, designing, editing, developing, and playtesting dozens of products. Jeff was lead designer for the rewrite, editing, and expansion of the City State of the Invincible Overlord and contributed to a new edition of the Chill RPG as well as editing, developing, designing, and writing many of the new supplements.
