Johanus Haidner lives and works in Edmonton, Alberta. Born and raised in Calgary, he has lived in Canada for most of his life. He finished up his MBA while living in Germany and spent a short while travelling around Europe and has also visited Central Asia and a few other countries. He lived in Houston, Texas for two years after completing his university studies. He has been a military police officer, a teacher (grades 4 through 12), a cook, a baker, dealt several games in casinos, made concrete countertops, built a couple of houses while managing a small construction company, worked as a graphic designer and editor, been a technical writer, worked as an internal auditor, a financial analyst, and spent more than ten years as an accountant. He now does small business taxes as his primary income, although his first loves have always been art and writing. Mr. Haidner runs The Academy of European Swordsmanship (the-aes.org / swordsmanship.ca) in his spare time teaching German and English martial arts to people from all walks of life aged seven and up! He is a single dad to a boy and a girl who inspire him every day! And they are his most enthusiastic fans of his artwork as well as the Mythic Hero game. He is working on more supplements to Mythic Hero, as well as writing some children's stories (not related to Mythic Hero). Johanus attends Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo every year, where he sells his artwork, handcrafted jewellery and knives, and now this fantasy RPG. His personal website is johanushaidner.com.
