This is the dude that is the head designer of Magic: The Gathering. He has been described as insane. While he does keep stuff classified until the public is supposed to know about it, he finds keeping the secrets unpleasant. The card line Maro is named after him (MaRo is an alias of him). He likes mechanics that double stuff, and guesses that 75% of magic cards that fit this category are designed by him.
