Clearly the best looking of the author block, I stand as the youngest of our fine organisation. Nineteen years old and quite haughty, I have a great affinity for writing, both academically and for entertainment. As a major in political science, my writing style will often come off as overly formal and scripted, though I do endeavor to minimize such habits. As the only Canadian of the authors, I have a unique perspective; that of being cold and in the dark for the most part. The majority of my writing hails in the Warcraft universe, from both before the games in terms of lore chronology and progression, since my main character, Vynlarion Highcrest VI, is far older than the game. My Warcraft stories range from shorts of about three thousand words to my longest, which is upwards of ten thousand words. The Warcraft universe has always fascinated me and made an excellent soundboard for expressing my creativity in writing, as it is so very expansive and allows for much freethinking writing. Most of my Warcraft stories are based on my main character Vynlarion, however many have large rolls from his late wife and his various family members.

In other genres, such as South Park and Kingdom Hearts, I have drastically gone off what is deemed canon and made more extravagant stories. These, along with other less visited universes, have seen me create many stories, ranging from romance, to drama, to action/adventure. For a very long time, anime has been an interest of mine, as I find them to be a delightful escape from reality which, in my opinion, helped hone my mind to write about more abstract, high fantasy worlds such as Warcraft. Anime has often inspired various aspects of my characters, especially Code Geass in relation to my main character, Vynlarion. Furthermore, Game of Thrones has also inspired aspects of my characters, however not to a large extent, as my characters predate the TV series by a few years.
