History with GURPS.
After writing, editing, and contributing to dozens of books for "GURPS", Sean Punch took over from the game's original designer Steve Jackson as the "GURPS" Line Editor in 1995, and slowly reshaped the line. Assisted by David L. Pulver, another Canadian and veteran role-playing game designer, he took on the task of re-designing the entire rule system for the a fourth edition of "GURPS" beginning in September 2002.
Sean Punch remains the Line Editor for "GURPS" - equivalent to being editor-in-chief of a book series, and the key decision-maker for new rules expansions.
He lives in Montreal, Quebec.
In an attempt to acknowledge the quality and quantity of his work, some "GURPS" players have used his online nickname ("Kromm") to create a tongue-in-cheek cult. They leave messages in discussion groups pretending to "praise Kromm."
