'''Steve Perrin''' is a [[game designer]] and technical [[writer]]/[[editor]].

Perrin is probably best known for creating the [[role-playing game]] ''[[RuneQuest]]'' for [[Chaosium]]. While at Chaosium he also created ''[[Stormbringer]]'', ''[[Worlds of Wonder]]'', ''[[Elfquest]]'', and ''[[Superworld]]'', and contributed to ''[[Thieves World]]'' and ''[[Call of Cthulhu role-playing game|Call of Cthulhu]]''.

He worked at [[Interplay Productions]], [[Maxis]], and [[Spectrum Holobyte]], doing game design, playtesting, and writing manuals for such [[computer game]]s as ''[[Starfleet Academy]]'', ''[[Sim City 2000]]'', and ''[[Flight of the Intruder]]'' to name but a few. He has also worked freelance for many of the major players in the games industry including [[TSR, Inc.|TSR]], [[FASA]], [[Hero]], [[West End Games]], and [[Iron Crown Enterprises]].

''Steve Perrin's Quest Rules'' (SPQR) is the latest Steve Perrin role-playing game, which he sells independently through [[Chaos Limited]]. He recently also designed ''[[Black 9 Ops]]'' as a paper and pencil accompaniment to Taldren Inc.'s ''Black9'' computer game, which fell afoul of developer-publisher friction and now looks to be unlikely to be published. Perrin decided to make ''Black 9 Ops'' available for free.

Perrin earned a BA in English from [[San Francisco State University]].
