Gene

Though we try not to actively award people who are directly involved with plot, this one decidedly belongs to Gene. While the story he ran was incredibly heart wrenching (pun intended), what really caught our attention was how present Gene was as not just a Storyteller, but as a Player and a Marshal. His dedication towards making the fantasy of this world as realistic as possible is wonderful. Unrelated to his story, the lengths he is willing to go to in order to assure that players, OOG, feel safe and comfortable is inspiring. Thank you, Gene, for not only giving us a great IG story, but for giving us a great OOG environment in which to experience it.
