USN veteran, full time producer, part time artist and author whose greatest creative joy comes from cocreating with others in collaborative written and illustrated fictional worlds. The Lodan books originate from the creators website link. The forums serve as a central hub for its vibrant role-playing community. They feature extensive world-building and character-driven narratives set in a steampunk fantasy universe. The forums are structured around various guilds like the Brotherhood of Rogues (BoR) and CAEsAL, with guild leaders such as Caitlin Cockfoster and Edelweiss Fjäril prominently featured in stories. Players develop intricate characters and participate in guild-centric missions, trials, and city-spanning events. The threads often include collaborative storytelling, art contributions, and discussions about guild alliances, rivalries, and city politics. Beyond role-playing, the forums are a hub for sharing concept art, world-building ideas, and community interaction.
