Joel has been a geek since his neighborhood friends acquired the D&D Red Box and let him join their band of adventurers. The journey from there to here has been an interesting one, all of it passing by in a blur of transforming F-14 Tomcats, pious Paladins, little painted soldiers, and the walking of countless Planes.

Joel's adventures have now brought him to a new home at Guardian Games. You can find him all over the place in the store. Recounting battles he has lost over in the miniatures section, behind the counter helping new Magic players build their first deck, or in the RPG alcove recounting the once ill fated choice of playing a paladin in Ravenloft. Sometimes you may even find him in the back playing a game. And no matter where you find him, he will always do his best to help anyone with anything related to gaming.

Angel played her first game of D&D at the age of 6 in 1982. Her favorite Christmas present ever was the red 'Beginner's' box set of classic Dungeons & Dragons.

She beat Contra by cheating. UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, START.

She picked summer strawberries to buy the Legend of Zelda.

For some reason, finishing a game of Arkham Horror still eludes her, though she has tried 5+ times to do so.

On strike from Safeway in 1994 and fresh out of David Douglas highschool, Angel found Magic the Gathering, at a local comic shop. Magic started her on a quest to find all things gaming. Her adventure continues.

When not gaming, Angel loves bicycling Portland, LEGOS, movies, music, books, and throwing a good party.
