Chris Taylor's developer profile

Christopher "Chris" Taylor, also known as ChrisT (because there were about a dozen different people named Chris in Fallout), was the lead designer of Fallout and a producer of Fallout Tactics. He was also the lead systems designer of both versions of Project V13. With Timothy Cain, he created the famous SPECIAL character system and much of the Fallout world.

Career

After Fallout, he stayed at Interplay for a while, serving as producer on Fallout Tactics as well as designer of Star Trek; Starfleet Command, until he left to join Vivendi Universal Games, where he worked as a producer of Lord of the Rings Online.

In 2008, he rejoined Interplay to work with Jason Anderson on Project V13, as the Lead Systems Designer.

Together with Scott Everts and Tom Decker, he also founded Zero Radius Games, a board game company.

In 2012, he appeared in the Mayan Apocolypse fundraiser video for the second Project V13.
