About me and my friendly neighbourhood Reaper
I took my first steps as a gamer in the late '90s--a classic story of a little girl becoming best friends with her Playstation and utterly obsessed with her favourite games. I sadly abandoned gaming in my teens in order to pursue irrelevant matters such as education and sports, my inner nerd being roused from its slumber only a decade later. After a series of fortunate events and the discovery of a couple of great games, my passion was fully rekindled by the end of 2011. The discovery of Mass Effect in early 2013 had a profound impact on my life; it has since become my all-time favourite in terms of universe and games. My preferred game to play is probably Mass Effect 2, although I think Mass Effect 3 brought together many of the best aspects of the two previous games into a simply stunning package. A console gamer at heart, I mostly play on the PS3.

While surveying this amazing Wiki I oftentimes concern myself with improving the language wherever I believe myself to detect deficiencies; apart from that I'm mostly harmless. I greatly appreciate the work that has been done to assemble this huge source of knowledge, and humbly hope to be able to contribute as I continue to gain experience and insight. When I'm not playing Mass Effect or, indeed, browsing the Wiki, I try to focus on my university studies. Although I'll probably end up teaching, I chiefly consider myself a learner with an insatiable appetite for all kinds of knowledge: My major is mathematics and my minors include English philology, astronomy, and computer science.

Archery has been featured in numerous games and movies of late. The idea is preposterous, but I sure would love to see what kind of unreal sci-fi bow one could potentially wield in ME. Despite its popularity, I suppose no form of archery could ever be part of the futuristic-realistic combat experience ME provides. Guess an archer Shepard would've been to hot to handle, anyway.

A sudden and violent desire to produce fan art has driven me into drawing--something I used to do a lot when I was younger. How could one possibly resist speculating what all the missing alien females could look like, for example? Or portraying the ever-familiar squadmates in casual clothes and settings? Maybe I'll even share some of my drawings at some point, although I lack the patience (and skill) to develop them beyond simple pencil sketches.

No Reaper activity for a few days now.

My neighbourhood Reaper has apparently departed for now. I'm halfway through my second playthrough of ME, this time going Renegade rather than Paragon. Having taken the Ender series to heart, though, there was no way I could have killed the Queen. Be free, queeny, and try not to get your notes soured!

Just this morning, the very day after I completed the ME trilogy for the first time, some construction workers close to my home decided to shake me up a little: They've started using some kind of a giant drill that sounds just like... a Reaper! The house even shakes a little from the force--kind of freaky, but totally awesome.
