Hi! My name is Elizabeth, and I'm a hobbyist fantasy worldbuilder. I'm 27, and my zodiac sign is Pisces. I currently work as a freight claims admin, and I have a BA in linguistics. I'm an American adopted from China. Most of my worldbuilding is focused on historical eras with a particular love for the 1700s-early 1900s.
 

World Summary

Tamaris

Steampunk, Victorian, Fantasy, Historical, Exploration
This is my first ever world on WA. Inspired primarily by HMS Warrior and arctic exploration, this is a low fantasy steampunk world. I'm not actively working on this world, but one day, I may go back to it. It still holds many fond memories.

Valtena

Flintlock, Fantasy - High Magic, Historical, Exploration
Currently my main world! Magic, tall ships, and fantasy tropes abound here. It was inpired by my love of sailing ships, the Napoleonic Wars, and my love of languages and Tolkien. This is a massive project that should take decades to fully explore.

Dinosaur Country

Western, Steampunk, Speculative, Alternative History, Exploration
This is my newest world. Inspired by a now long dead roleplay of the same name, Dinosaur Country has become a playground for dinosaurs, trains, and wide open spaces. Unlike my other worlds, this is focused around a single town with much of the world left in the background. The lives of the townspeople and ranchers take center stage.
