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 south Indiana with his wife, Barbara and son
Charlie. He also has two older children, Mandy, in Ohio and Anthony 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.
