Welcome!

Welcome and thanks for visiting. I'm a fic writer in the Starfox section and have been for quite a few years. I write mostly outside of the fic world now but come back every now and then when an idea hits; fic writing is relaxing and lets me be open with a universe I grew to love without the pressures of writing for publication. If you like what you see and are interested in my original writing, follow my "homepage" link to see my Amazon listing. If anyone has any questions or comments, my e-mail and PM boxes are always open.

Starfox Stories

The Overlord Trilogy

This refers to the stories "Shattered Past, Hero's Vengeance," "Blood Feud," and "Vanguard," in that order. Consider this a big, red Warning -- these were my first fics, posted years ago, and in my opinion do not technically or characteristically compare with my current writing. So...be gentle. =) I loved writing those stories though so by all means give them a read if you'd like. In any case, "Vanguard" saw my first real, in-the-spotlight original character Gage Birse whom I've grown to love writing. If you want more info on Gage and the special forces unit Dagger, this is their debut.

Hatred Falls

This fic sees Fox and Wolf forced to tolerate and fight alongside each other to escape an isolated complex filled with ravenous biological experiments. While I liked the idea of writing Fox and Wolf as hesitant allies, the plot itself was inspired by my love of survival horror games. I love horror-themed games and thought about how I could incorporate those elements into the Starfox world. Currently unfinished with no immediate plans to continue, but I might in the future.

The Mercenary Wars

My personal favorite completed fic. The plot involves an unknown instigator putting a hefty reward on Fox's head, sparking immediate conflicts with rival mercenaries and even testing the Lylat people's loyalty to their hero. Gage returns as the faithful friend ready to see the problem through, even when it takes a big turn for the worst.

The Gunmen of Venom Hill

This is a fun one. This fic was meant to be a personal study of the nuances of writing in a wild west theme. Basically, it's a retelling of the Starfox story as a western. I loved the idea and it was fun writing what's done so far. Other commitments made me stop short but I definitely plan on working on this in the future.

One Death Away

My most current project and my personal favorite. I put a lot of effort into this fic because the story, which has been floating around in my head for some time, is one I really wanted to nail. This story brings back Gage as a major character along with a longer roster of new characters as Starfox and the military face down a threat that hits a little too close to the heart for Fox.

--I'm happy to report that "One Death Away" has been featured on Fandom Paradise over at The Geek Fighters / Anime Mavericks. Head on over there to see the video! My thanks to The Shades for choosing to feature the story.--

Two more things to note: First, all my fics take place in the time frame of/following Starfox 64. No Dino Planet, no Command, no Assault. I started writing after 64 and that's where my heart stays. None of the later games really "did" it for me. Second, all the fics are independent of each other except the three stories of the Overlord Trilogy. So if there are some discrepancies between stories, such as ages, different attitudes or reactions, or characters dead in some stories and alive in others, it's all intended. Think of them all as separate, possible scripts for the events of/following Starfox 64.

Thank you once again for reading and visiting! I hope you enjoy the stories and I look forward to hearing any comments!
