Artist . Roleplayer . Paleontology geek
I'm an estonian-based college student and freelancer who professes an interest to concept art, character design and animation, as well as landscape- and portrait painting.
My other areas of interest include paleontology, skeptical cryptozoology, literature, finno-ugric folklore and gaming of both computer and tabletop variety.
Fun fact: Although I can draw alright I think my favorite thing is still seeing other people depict my characters..If you draw them well I'll probably save it to my hard drive and love it forever.
★ Why and what
I came here for one simple reason - Charahub's forums were off all the time and I felt like talking to people about my OC's.
Over time I grew fond of Toyhou.se, for it's more professional layout and active community. I'd like to think that I've grown quite used to the local customs though the whole "adoptables" and character-trading scene will remain odd for me forever.
I started roleplaying back in 2005 and have been on both sides of the literate frpg-IM script-style fence. Most of my character sheets are for long-spanning script-style roleplays which take place either on Skype, Discord or - if tabletop rpg elements are called for - in roll20. Thus a lot of my OC's have pretty standard backgrounds followed with massive superpowers and tragic events in their "ongoing" storylines. Sometimes it makes me self-concious because I fear people would take them to be Mary-Sues. Nonetheless I love my characters a lot and could talk of them forever.

You're welcome! And I'm sure the birds will warm up to you soon enough. Either that or you're dealing with the wrong type of crow. :D The thread seems to have been deleted. I wonder why. Did someone complain of the mass pinging?

Thank you! :D I guess I've grown fond of making characters more for alternative history/alternative reality stuff than fantasy in recent years and it's always nice to hear that someone likes what I'm doing.
