Location St. Louis, Missouri, United States
Introduction My journeyman life of wealth and fame began in the Hoosier State (we’re proud of it, folks), and my codes have read IN, MO, PA, A-Wien. Currently, I’m installing cybernetic implants to improve my vision, hearing, and memory. That’s of course when I’m not shapeshifting and taking the form of a grizzled brown bear in the timber forests of Southwest City. All of this is made possible by my very useful and lucrative M.A. in Comparative Religion (I highly recommend graduate school to everyone). But that’s enough about me…who the heck are you?
