Croc (game designer)

Christophe Réaux (born in France in December 16, 1965), largely and mainly known by the pseudonym Croc, is a games French designer, specialized in role-playing games (RPG) although he also has designed at least both a board game (L'Âge des dieux, "Age of Gods") and a miniatures game (Hell Dorado). He is considered in his own country as a role-playing games pioneer and one of the most important designers in the ambit of such games. Croc's games are edited by Siroz (a homophone of the French word cirrhose, meaning "cirrhosis"), now called Asmodée éditions, French for Asmodeus. Croc met the founders of Siroz (Nicolas Théry, Éric Bouchaud and Laurent Tremmel) in the "20 Naturel" RPG club of Vélizy (near Versailles) in the mid-1980s at secondary school (high school).

One of his games, In Nomine Satanis/Magna Veritas (1989), led to the less controversial English-language game, In Nomine.
