Something Winnowing This Way Comes
Unreal Engine Single-player Level Script
Last update 1/14/07
Premise: A space marine on routine investigation is the lone survivor of a faceless, ancient evil as he plumbs into the nightmarish heart of an alien planet in search for the souls of his comrades. His only hope lies in a promise for release if he can discover the name of the beast.
This is the first chapter of a script for a single-player mission in the Unreal Engine. All dialogue is in-game audio cued by triggers that are noted in the script. The inspiration for the story was a Lovecraftian take on the Unreal universe. Exploring new worlds as a space marine seems hardly different than plumbing the depths of catacombs and cathedrals. There are horrors that await, horrors that are of such ancient and encompassing darkness that our most advanced technology may as well be gypsy-bought holy water to them.
They'll watch us as we gallop around in our hyperspace, swinging our nuclear weapons, and chuckle to themselves of how fragile is the flesh within the metal, as they begin to tell this tale... READ THIS

A Fire in the Flame
Short story based on Warcraft myth
Last update 12/20/06
Premise: The treacherous Illidan has found a lover in his eternal warden, who secretly frees him for one night to settle an honor grudge with a madman.
In the lost lore surrounding the traitorous night elf Illidan, I thought in his imprisonment for dabbling in forbidden magic he would surely have been potent and attractive to his wardens, in a druidic James Dean sorta way. I'm no expert in Warcraft mythology, but the circumstances and characters demanded just this sort of tragedy to occur. There's alot of WC3 gameplay embedded into this story that I tried to work in as smoothly as I could. After all, it's their heroic abilities that lure heroes to their ends. READ THIS

Phenotype
Original sci-fi epic, work in progress
Last update 3/5/07
Premise: In a future Earth, a mysterious alien ambassador arrives to greet humanity, only to be interrupted suddenly by its assassination before a world council. In a world where mankind has finally standardized its politics, no one knows how to respond. But one fallen military empire still remembers war, and sends a legendary mercenary into the aliens' Amazon base to discover both their purpose, and their true nature.
This is the Earth that I foresee as a possibility. Attention to politics and paradigms paints a world where, should we ever engage with extra-terrestial intelligence, navigating global reactions will be essential to survival and power. With information infinitely accessible, wars will be fought virtually, and ignorance can be vaccinated. Given this world, how would the morality of a soldier be sustained in favor of his employer?
