M. Alexander Jurkat is an attorney, and a game designer who has worked primarily on role-playing games. ==Career== M. Alexander Jurkat is an attorney who gave George Vasilakos the idea to license the property of a small press roleplaying game called ''Battlelords of the 23rd Century'' (1990) that Jurkat had worked on, the result of which was published as the ''Battlelords'' CCG (1995) through Vasilakos' New Millennium Entertainment. New Millennium went out of business after being unable to deal with its CCG-related debts, and on July 4, 1997, Vasilakos and Jurkat—together with investor Ed Healy—announced that they had formed the new gaming company, Eden Studios; they also acquired the rights to ''Conspiracy X'' from their former New Millennium Entertainment partners to continue the line.〔 Vasilakos and Jurkat were fans of C.J. Carella's work, and in July 1998 they announced an exclusive license to Carella's ''WitchCraft'' and ''Armageddon'' role-playing games, previously published by small-press roleplaying company Myrmidon Press.〔 Eden Studios arranged a deal with Steve Jackson Games to produce ''GURPS Conspiracy X'' (2002), which was authored by Jurkat.〔 Vasilakos and Jurkat decided to make Unisystem the house system of Eden Studios, first displaying this intention with the RPG ''All Flesh Must Be Eaten'' (2000), written by Vasilakos and Christopher Shy and edited by Jurkat.〔 Jurkat ceased being an owner in Eden Studios in 2005 and left the company's day-to-day operations behind in 2006, later becoming a freelance editor for companies like Margaret Weis Productions and Wizards of the Coast.〔 His ''Dungeons & Dragons'' design work includes the ''Magic Item Compendium'' (2007) and ''Player's Option: Heroes of Shadow'' (2011). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「M.
