Career.
Charles Ryan's Chameleon Eclectic had been publishing games such as "Millenium's End" (1992) and "Psychosis" (1994) in the college town of Blacksburg, Virginia. Ryan was a later hire at Last Unicorn Games, and was the only employee to relocate to Seattle when Bill Slavicsek opted to close down the L.A. office of Last Unicorn in response to a directive from Hasbro that Wizards of the Coast cut 10% of their staff in December 2000. In 2011, Cubicle 7 expanded its staff with industry insiders like Ryan, Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan, Walt Ciechanowski, and Neil Ford.
His "D&D" editing and design work includes the 3.5 revisions of the "Player's Handbook", "Monster Manual", and "Dungeon Master's Guide" (2003), the "Miniatures Handbook" (2003), the "Dragonlance Campaign Setting" book (2003), "Draconomicon" (2003), "Unearthed Arcana" (2004), and "Monster Manual III" (2010).
