About the Author

While Nulcheck's expertise is in electronic music production, he also enjoys worldbuilding. At one point, he and his friends had ideas to make video games, but it never panned out for various reasons.
  Hailing from the Chicagoland area, he grew up in a military family. He enjoys analog technology, is intrigued by the concept of null (hence the username), appreciates both solarpunk and steampunk aesthetics, and, of course, likes almost anything that features dragons. His favorite movie, How to Train Your Dragon, along with the Elder Scrolls franchise, inspired him to create this world.

I'm not a writer; I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I had an idea for a thing, expanded on it a bit, and here it is. My expertise is electronic music production; I just like to worldbuild sometimes. Also, I think I have Early-Onset Worldbuilder's Disease. help

It's really impressive how much you've got for dragonguard already! I would've thought you'd been working on this world for years. Looking forward to digging in deeper ^^
