my interests

drawing

i've been drawing all sorts of character-focused works since i learned to hold a pen. as an artist, i'm entirely self-taught, both in traditional and digital media. i currently produce my digital art with Clip Studio.

on the side, i also create some vector art in Adobe Illustrator; like conlang alphabets, or logos for fictional companies in my works.

writing

writing as a hobby appeared late in my life, some time after i discovered tabletop rpgs. now, i write lore for my worlds, short stories featuring my characters, and much more!

multi

it might be obvious from my appearance and works, but i love characters with extra body parts. to me, experimenting with anatomy feels as natural and fun as with any other physical feature, like hair or eye color.

i've had this fascination for as long as i can remember. my very first oc, which i created around 10, already had extra limbs! however, it took me a very long time to open up about this special interest. as a bullied kid, i was horribly afraid of other people finding out about it. now, i've embraced it and haven't been happier.

multi is the bread and butter of my character design. i can't remember who, but someone coined the term "aptophilia", defining it as "an affinity for the utility or inconvenience caused by unique bodies". this sums up nicely how i perceive multi; i love to imagine what the daily life of characters with extra parts looks like! i just think it's neat :)

fantasy

i love fantasy settings! magic, monsters, dungeons, strange landscapes and unique people, everything. it's my favorite genre to explore as an artist/writer, and my goto setting for tabletop rpgs.

science fiction

got nothing but love for scifi. the very first book i actively sought and bought myself was Philip K Dick's "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", and it was an incredible experience.

tho i consume a lot of scifi media, it's not my favorite genre to explore as artist/writer; building scifi worlds requires a lot more effort for me than, say, fantasy ones. hoping to change that someday!

tabletop rpgs

ever since i've tried them in high school, i've been fascinated by tabletop rpgs. pretty quick, i started building homebrew systems to GM for my friends, and developing entire fantasy worlds. i still do so today!

i also have a sizeable collection of dice, meeples and other trinkets specifically for my tabletop rpgs. i often illustrate the characters i play, or create ocs with the intention to play them someday.

that said, i haven't played in a while, and am quite sad about not having friends to play regularly with anymore. crossing all my fingers to eventually find a new group!

programming

i dabble in Python! i really love its structure and style, and write all sorts of things with it; from simple scripts to automate/facilitate operations on my pc, to all sorts of tools for personal use.

as part of my romhacking activities, i'm also pretty well-versed into 65c816 assembly, which i usually refer to as just "asm".

i currently use (and have so far always used) notepad++, but am hoping to learn how to use a few more editors!

romhacking

i've always loved Mario games. pretty soon in my life, i learned about emulators, Super Mario World, and its romhacking community. tho this interest comes and goes in my life, i don't think i'll ever quite lose it x)

as a SMW hacker, i mainly focus on graphics and programming. i am currently working on code libraries (for math, message boxes, specific snes features, etc), as well as an ambitious, cooperative 2-player game in which player #2 uses a SNES Mouse to control a cursor character, named Klik.
