(self taught the basics of C++ - made a functioning calculator and "guess the number" game..)
+ Excellent familiarity with Microsoft Office and general computer skills

Interests:
= Fantasy/ Science Fiction/ New Weird/ Cyberpunk
= World building
(map design, location description and detailing, a fascination for weird architecture and nature's more bizarre creations)
= Story writing
(short stories, concept outlines, character descriptions and bios, weapons, vehicles, items, romances, plot structures, rivalries, dreamscapes, lore, armours, magic systems)
= Video Game design
(script, character design, original concept, level design and layout - generally all creative elements)
= Tabletop RPGs
(avid Dungeons and Dragons DM, currently working on the lore and game mechanics for an original tabletop RPG with another writer and an artist. So far it's just a hobby, but serious thought and efforts are planned.)
= Modding
(specifically an old Sierra game called "Empire Earth", I redesign the game textures (.SST, .TGA) and swap model files (.CEM) for my own designs)
Erias Line: concept art
Though the primary aim of the project is to be a showcase of my storytelling and writing, I'm determined that the finished 'product' be as polished and professional looking as I can manage. So I've been working hard at the character concept art.
These modest results are the culmination of many hours tweaking and revision and redoing. Skyler (centre) is not meant to be 'busty'; I hate the whole "women only wear chain mail bikinis" element of mainstream RPGs but at the same time she IS female and DOES have breasts - so I'm working on incorporating that sensibly into her Reclaimer Plate Armour. The current 'boob lines' are a general guideline at the moment and won't by any means be as obvious in the final draft.
