Champions Online - Meet Brian Gilmore

Posted July 3rd, 2008 by Morvelaira

Okay, I could see this guy as an evil genius...

Meet Brian Gilmore, content designer for Champions Online! He's an old school, hardcore Champions player who also worked on content for City of Heroes/City of Villains.

Q: What aspect of Champions Online are you most excited about working on?
A: I'm an old-time Champions player, so I'm excited about everything. In fact, I owe my job at Cryptic, at least in part, to my knowledge of Champions. Seriously – I put it on my resume when I first applied in 2003, and when Jack had me in for an interview he started asking me Champions questions. Midway through the interview, he turns to Craig (Zinkievich, our executive producer) and says "you're not going to understand a word of this for like 10 minutes," and then launches into hardcore Champions talk with me. It was definitely the most unusual interview I've ever had.

Maybe pouring through all my old AD&D books wouldn't be a bad idea...

For the full interview, please check the Champions Online main site.
