When Mark Rapson joined Nightfall Games he had already established himself in the tabletop gaming industry with his own company Word Forge Games. This board games company is best known for the D-Day Dice and SAS Rogue Regiment games.

For Nightfall Games, Mark is responsible for running our Kickstarters and driving forward development. As such he is the Managing Director, but also likes to dabble in project management, bringing both SLA Industries 2nd Edition and The Terminator RPG to fruition. In more recent months he has brought StokerVerse Roleplaying Game, SINS RPG and Devil’s Run RPG to Nightfall Games. Furthermore, he has significant writing credits contributing to all our product lines.

In his spare time Mark enjoys the company of his family and photographing rare species of butterflies all over the country. You will likely see him at shows, leaning on anything he can find to lean on and stroking his ever-greying beard as he gets overexcited about one of the many games he has worked on…or just likes to play.

Dave Allsop started work in the games industry in 1990, producing art for Fantasy Forge. In 1993, along with Jared Earle, he set up Nightfall Games – a new Scottish company creating the RPG – SLA Industries. In that same year Wizards of the Coast bought Nightfall Games and SLA Industries.

Throughout his career Dave has worked as an illustrator and concept artist for Magic the Gathering, Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, Hearthstone and many others over the decades.

He currently works for Nightfall Games as a fulltime games designer where he continues to work on SLA Industries but has also co created Demon Dog, a new game using the Mork Borg system. He hopes to release a selection of new games in the coming year.

Jared Earle is the Production Director at Nightfall Games and is responsible for making sure the books and PDFs are up to our exacting standards, managing book design, layout and pre-press while also writing for SLA Industries and other projects, including the in-your-face punk RPG Demon Dog.

He is a founding member of Nightfall Games and has been working on SLA Industries since 1991. In addition to his writing and book production duties, he is also an IT consultant, a world championship motorcycle racing correspondent and photographer. He started out his gaming career in the early 80s as a hanger-on at Asgard Miniatures and eventually got a job as a mail-order troll at Games Workshop and was packing Skaven into bags when Warhammer 40k was released. After Nightfall Games was bought by Wizards of the Coast, he remained there for five years, enjoying the massive Magic: the Gathering boom and the purchase of TSR and Dungeons and Dragons. After leaving games to work in the Dotcom boom in London, Paris and Glasgow, he returned to Nightfall Games in 2010. He also enjoys cottage life in Scotland with his wife, cats, motorbikes and assorted computers with the occasional journey to the pub with Dave.
