paul jaquaysPaul Jaquays currently hangs his professional hat at MicroSoft/Ensemble Studios in Dallas, Texas, where he works as an artist on Age of Empires III.

He began his career in the mid 70s as a pioneering artist and designer in the area of pre-created game adventures for the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) pencil and paper role-playing game by way of the D&D fan magazine, The Dungeoneer. He moved on to designing and directing the design of video games for Coleco in the early 80s; then on to freelancing as an artist, writer, editor, and game designer after that up until the early 90s when he joined TSR, Inc., the publisher of Dungeons and Dragons as a cover illustrator. In 1997 he took up level designing for id Software before moving on to Ensemble Studios in early 2002 to take a position as a content designer.
