Also Known As: Benjamin Daniel Brockmann (April 2, 1975 - ??????)

Benjamin began playing RPG's at around 8, when his family first got a computer (an Apple II+). Granted, at that time, the games were pretty much laughable (there were all TEXT, if you can believe that...oh wait...forget it), but there were a few that were fun (Ultima, Bard's Tale), and as years progressed, both the computers and the games improved. This, combined with a love of books and an interest in games such as D&D, helped mutate Benjamin's imagination into that which is required for one to enjoy sitting down for hours (and sometimes days) on end in front of a computer melting the brain.

Thus, in August of 1993 when he entered college, he was ripe for the picking when a friend he had met, James (known to many as Blackfel and Arion), showed him how to access muds, he was addicted. And, as some muds went down and others went up, Benjamin was eventually shown the light, and was given the address to Mozart. Of course, this too went down, and Benjamin took a brief sojourn from the world of muds. And, as soon as he found out Mozart was back up, he rejoined the ranks. But, when it came back up, Mozart was different. People were missing, and although in most cases not unusual, these were people who were at one point of high rank in the game. So, after asking a few questions, Benjamin found out that there had been a bit of a disagreement and a few of the old gods had decided to form their own world. Well, that was all fine and dandy, except that Mozart pretty much sucked now due to major imbalances. So Benjamin moved over to the other incarnation, and found Tera. And so it remains.

Currently, in his physical representation on Earth, Benjamin is attending Northwest Missouri State University as a Computer Science major and is engaged to a lovely young lady by the name of Kelli Prim. His roommate at the moment, Dave (also known as Iarwain), is a loyal follower of Rhysling and idolizes him.
