Charles Embrey Jr.

Central Illinois

Charles Embrey Jr. was born into a military family. He learned much about human nature and cultural differences through the family's travels with his father as he was assigned to different Air Force Bases. Charles learned to make friends easily and to adapt quickly to his new surroundings. He graduated from High School in the family’s home state of Mississippi: his thirteenth school in twelve years.

Nomadic life agreed with Charles: He enlisted into the United States Air Force
immediately after High School. As a young Airman he was introduced to fantasy adventure gaming through Dungeons and Dragons. He had found a new pastime. Charles was never content with the superficial approach to gaming. He designed elaborate, believable gaming scenarios with characters that came to life and gave new meaning to the game.
Marriage and fatherhood placed his gaming scenarios on the back burner until his own retirement from the Air Force. He resides in central Illinois with his wife, Barbara, and has three grown children: Mandy, in South Carolina and Anthony and Charlie in Illinois.

Charles holds a Bachelor's Degree in Business and is certified as a Pathologists' Assistant. He works at a large hospital and now spends his free time writing spellbinding fiction based on the elaborate gaming scenarios from his past. Charles’ talent comes to light in his believable characters that capture the reader’s imagination in a fantasy world. He has successfully resurrected those characters from his gaming days, and he has given them new life in his fantasy fiction to delight readers everywhere.

“We are shackled to this Earth and existence by our bodies, but our minds and imaginations, unencumbered by the laws of reality and the infirmities of age, are free to break these bonds and soar free to travel through time, dimensions and enjoy a reality of our own choosing.” - Charles Embrey Jr.
