Dream "Dream" Cloutman-Green
Bid Committee Chair and Contessa de Cocktail
GM for: Needful Things, Time for Tea!
Most people think that Dream is a professional organizer!
This is not true she has retained her amateur statues in the hope that organisation will be named as an event in the 2012 Olympics.
In the last few years she has been in rigorous training with exercises such as wedding planning, property acquisition, game writing and an exhaustive resistance training regime masterminded by her head coach and husband Jon Cloutman-Green and facilitated by her two assistant coaches Colin Wallace and Andrew The Ditch Ditchburn.
When asked what the future holds for this up and coming organisational star she said I'm hoping to work closely with professional Organisarians such as Sue and Nickey ... maybe in some kind of writing capacity. Whatever Dreams future holds she is definitely one to watch.

Hanbury Hampden-Turner
GM for: Starship Ares
Hanbury was born, at an early age, in California. He was stolen from a medical research laboratory to live in an earthquake zone, where he promptly developed an interest in entymology, rocketry, and positive thinking. He then moved to Europe, where he was carefully trained in riding, fencing, glass blowing, firearms, aerial navigation, the double bass, survival, and unarmed combat and began infiltrating the british aristocracy. Cunningly disguised as a TV celebrity, he has brought down six companies into bankruptcy or takeover, and continues his mission by posing as a writer of freeforms. He is believed to be partly responsible for at least six freeforms, and a number of rubbersword LARPs and tabletop games.
Rachael "Rei" Hampden-Turner
GM for: Starship Ares
Rei was born in a vast industrial wasteland where the sky glowed burnt orange at night and the odd explosion rocked the nearby houses. She is descended on one side from a mysterious orphaned farm boy, which may explain her suspiciously hobbit-like traits, and on the other side from a fierce war veteran matriarch. Her early diet consisted almost entirely of books, and her pre-school years included a number of run-ins with both adults and peers, who persistently and perplexingly reacted badly when she helpfully tried to correct them. Her school days saw her inducted into a mysterious local group listed in the phone directory only as a satanic cult, where she learned to wage war and perform magic while hordes of young men insisted on giving her expensive pieces of cardboard. She finally escaped, and ran away to spend the next few years in an ivory tower to study the workings of imaginary universes, thankfully well populated with books and fellow cult members. Rei now spends her weekdays disguised as a mnild mannered insurance risk mathematician, and her evenings and weekends poledancing, climbing silks, studying whichever subject strikes her fancy this month, making music, sailing, riding, diving, and occasionally hitting people with things, although sometimes she gets confused and turns up at work in silly costumes. She uses her time machine to fit in freeform writing into her busy schedule, which is the only explanation for the 5 freeforms, several combat LARPs, a couple of tabletops, and a number of play-by-e-mail games that she has nevertheless managed to churn out. Her concentration span is often ooh shiny.

Part of the Epic Experience. I would say "the one most usually found swearing at technology" but I think Graham's taken over that job this year...

Mo "Mo" Holkar
Webslinger Ordinaire
GM for: Winter of Discontent, All Rite on the Night, A Will to Murder, Reading Between the Lines
Mo is part of the Epic Experience collective, soon to be celebrating our twentieth year writing freeforms.
To show he is still foolish, if not young any more, he's running four games at Consequences this year. And hoping to play a few too.
Mo is also responsible for maintaining and upgrading the Consequences website and database system.
Kevin Jacklin
GM for: Hollywood Lives: Date Night Double-Bill
Kevin has been playing in, writing, producing and promoting freeform games for more than 20 years. A successful trilogy of co-written games, beginning with Home of the Bold in 1992 were the mainstay of the Convulsion convention, and introduced many stalwarts of the UK Freeforms group to the genre. Kevin produced the first UK weekend-long game of Cafe Casablanca under the Convivium banner in 1995. Kevin also enjoys boardgames, and it is through his association with designer Reiner Knizia that he has devised Hollywood Lives, which aims to meld together the constructive anarchy of freeforms with the world of high-pressure movie production and finance in an entertaining way.
Helen "Oh Exalted One" Jones
GM for: Hope Springs Eternal
Heidi Kaye
GM for: Midsummer Mischief
You were born in America, but have spent your entire adult life in Britain. Having been introduced to freeforms at the first Convulsion twenty years ago, you have written quite a few yourself over the past fifteen years. Your secret identity as the Stuart heir to the throne has not yet been revealed, so you must be on your guard against agents of the Germanic line of the family. Your abilities include fast talk, carrying a big stick, and immortalising your cats in games. Your main goal: run Midsummer Mischief to build up your loyal following so that you may at last rightfully take the throne in the usurper’s so-called ‘jubilee year’.

GM for: Collision Imminent!!!!!!!!!!!, Marlowe 2020, A Turn on the Radiance Rose, Time for Tea!, Ops!
So having passed the gauntlet (or should that be tiara) this year I am only buying the goody bag stuff and GMing four games.
Nice and Quiet then!?!

AJ Smith
GM for: The Omega Delivery, Council of Fennas Drunin, The Koenig Dead, A Turn on the Radiance Rose
AJ long ago decided that his best way to get into Brian's games was to help run them. More recently, he
extended this policy to Tony's games. So far, this strategy is working well ...
Mike "Mike(y)" Snowden
Herr Cocktailmeister
GM for: Small Town Folks, Come Hel or Hiawatha, Collision Imminent!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm the one with beard, glasses and an armful of props, and hopefully a pint. OK, that's half of the con. Replace "prop" with "PA", and I'm more easily identifiable.
I'm an experienced writer and player, with "Come Hel or Hiawatha" and "Small Town Folks" running here. Previous games include "Veterans Day" and "Carry on at Camp David"
Cat Tobin
GM for: Reading Between the Lines
Cat has been playing games for a while now and sometimes writes them, too. She likes coffee, hates mornings and is not a secret agent.

This year was very busy but somehow I managed to get the artwork done for Consequences as well as
doing artwork and design for the Curse of Whately Mayans. I'm still now sure how I did it all.
Have a great con!
Colin "Superman?" Wallace
GM for: Needful Things, Time for Tea!
The product of a world war 2 genetic experiment I was frozen in arctic ice on purpose, not because I was far superior in every way but because I was such a dick
about it.
Now that I have been found and thawed out buy the evil entertainment and party
planing cooperation Evil Twin Incorporated I have been drafted into a super team
called The Advengers who rid the world of free thought through a vigorous product
placement policy.
Along side my fellow team mate, and cunning drunk Jon Cloutman-Green, we are on a campaign to destroy your creativity one Old Spice ad at a time.

I'm back. I'll be running something this year, just need to decide what...
Okay, I've decided. It's the Man in Black. Come on, sign-up, you know you want to...
Okay, that didn't work. How about Council of Fennas Drunin? Come on, you know you want to play that one...
