Chris Hurley / Roamer
as Roamer
Roamer is (as of this writing) the retired Sr. Goon in charge of the DEF CON Vendor Area (let's see how that works out). He has been on DEF CON staff since DEF CON 8. He was the founder of the DEF CON WarDriving contest the first 4 years of it's existence and has also run the slogan contest in the past. Roamer is the guitarist for the Goon Band, Recognize. Although having no actual skills his ability to drink virtually every Goon and attendee under the table has gained him massive prominence in the scene and elevated him to the lofty station you see him in today. When not "working" at DEF CON he is "working" as the Global Information Security Manager and Sr. Enterprise Architect for Sony PlayStation WorldWide Studios. Twitter: @shitroamersays

Ryan Clarke / LosT
as LosT
LosT mucks around with DEF CON on occasion. He is the creator of the Hardware Hacking Village, the LosT@Defcon Mystery Challenge, and for the past few years the DEF CON badges and badge challenges. Russ says he's the official DEF CON Puzzlemaster, but LosT still doesn't believe him. In his other life LosT enjoys playing the bass and linguistics, among other things. He's also been known to study mathematics, electrical engineering and physics in his spare time. Twitter: @1o57
