His leadership skills stem from six years of active duty in the United States Air Force as a military police officer and firearms instructor. Bizkit also has post-military experience as a police officer and possesses fundamental conflict resolution skills, making him able to moderate a game smoothly and efficiently.
Bizkit aims to provide a safe and fun environment for all who attend the IGE. He is the founding member of the Wolfpack. At home, Bizkit reigns as Master of the Grill and proud father of two loving puppies.

Tina began her LARPing career in the summer of her 16th birthday (2002). From that fated day on she was hooked and jumped from LARP to LARP throughout the Pennsylvania and New Jersey area. When she started, she didn't even know what LARP stood for. Tina now goes out of her way to learn and experience everything related to LARPing.
She is excited now to be able to help her friends create something she never thought possible and watch how things unfold. You can usually find her behind the desk welcoming in players at Logistics or laced up tightly in a corset behind the bar at the inn.
