Chris Avellone, Comic Book Writer?

[Jason]

I was browsing in a comic book store today and noticed an issue called "Star Wars Tales" (#21, I think) that had a story written by Chris Avellone. Is that the same CRPG Chris Avellone we all know and love? It would make sense given KOTOR 2, but I'm surprised I hadn't heard anything before. It's like finding out he has a secret life or something.

Didn't you know? Read his blog more often (on mspace.com)

That can't be right.. Look at the bio entries:

• Status: In a Relationship
  Here for: Networking, Friends
  Orientation: Straight
  Hometown: Tustin, Alexandria, Tanelorn, Take Your Pick
  Body type: 5' 8" / Athletic
  Ethnicity: White / Caucasian
  Zodiac Sign: Libra
  Smoke / Drink: No / Yes
  Education College graduate
  Occupation Computer Game Designer, but don't be afraid.

The only one that fits MCA is the bit on smoking/drinking and computer game designer.

It's him, I know it.
He posted a link on Obsidian forums, or in his profile... can't rembmer for sure, but it's him.
He's got photos in his blog, so take a look and you'll recognize him ^)

Now we know what the missing content from KOTOR 2 was:
Monkey Nipples

I'll keep my fingers crossed for NWN 2: Monkey Nipples of the Sword Coast.

Is that blog satirical? It seems almost like a deadpan parody of myspace.

Told'ya!

He's a funny guy, and a talented one. Too bad his talent is wasted on mostly sub-par projects.

But whatever he may be up to in future, this one huge masterpiece, PS:T, to which he contributed so greately, was and will be forever in the hall of fame.

Yea, occupying top positions and kicking down competition .

That great sucking sound was the joke going over your head.

 

[gromit]

Yeah, man, you missed him implying that MCA was a single, gay, fatty black Scorpio with no college.

From somewhere other than Tustin.

Hmm, not much without the delivery.

I would have gone with 5'8" / Balding for the physical description.
