Me!

Hello everyone,

My name is Aelaris, and I am also known as "Nil Athelion" throughout other parts of the internet. I primarily identify as a writer and a strategist. I write stories, and I enjoy strategy games. I also enjoy Role-playing games, primarily pen-and-pencil ones, though I have not had the chance to play an awful lot.

I also enjoy designing games, though I have a dangerous inclination towards simulation and complexity - often at the expense of simplicity and fun. I am currently working on two RPG systems: one being Pit Fighter, an attempt to realistically simulate combat between those fragile things called humans. The other is a variant on a 4E variant, which is significantly more gamist.

While I like playing RPGs, I don't know many people in my area who play them (I moved recently), so I've been more focused on my current writing and game design.

Other Notes

• Okay, it occurs to me that I have a considerably greater-than-layman knowledge of martial arts and of medieval combat. So if you're looking for some sort of advise on the properties of things, I guess I'm a better-than-average person to ask.

• I used to be one of Ialdabaoth's housemate, if anyone is wondering where that connection comes from. He's the one that convinced me to wander over here.
