| Sarah Bay, Class of 2007 Guildmaster (2006-2007) Scribe (2004-2006) | |||
 | Sarah was the Guild Scribe for two years, finishing her time at Wittenberg as Guild Master in '06-'07. After Wittenberg she put her East Asian Studies major to use by teaching English in northern Japan for three years. Upon her return to the States in 2010 the economy and job market were in a sad state. This unexpected stretch of free time allowed Sarah to explore a hobby she'd long put off: chainmaille. Within three months Sarah sold her first commissioned piece and opened an Etsy shop dubbed GenesisMaille. GenesisMaille has attended several small gaming conventions and art shows in Michigan and Ohio including WittCon. She still designs and creates chainmaille jewelry and accessories as a hobby and upon special request, but the expansion of GenesisMaille is currently on hold while Sarah is a graduate student at Wright State studying TESOL.

| Eric Ebbs, Class of 2009 | |||
 | Eric, more commonly referred to as Ebbs, is currently working for Clark State Community College as an Instructional Technology and Audio/Visual Specialist. He is still an active member in the guild and helps to introduce new role playing, card, and board games to the members. He also has a large collection of miniatures and is hoping to offer miniature gaming to interested members. Ebbs likes to create games and worlds and has created the company Mythical Eras of War, Games, LLC. (www.mythicalerasofwargames.com) to produce his first official board game Era of the Ninja. Current expectations are for a late fall release, with several other games to be released over the next year.
