Hey guys :) I know we got some great artists on this site, we got great modelers, and most of all we got great minds, but what no one has shown yet (or at least i haven't noticed) is great writers.
So anyone here do some writing as a hobby? (or even professionally?) Doesn't have to be SC related, i just wonder :)
I know sc2armory has a category in their forum for (fan)fiction, but we don't :/ And i'd expect mappers to be able to write and come up with stories before i'd expect melee players to!
Not asking for a forum category for this though :p Just wanna know whether anyone here writes, and possibly post some things?
Personally i do quite some writing, but as with everything i do it depends on my motivation >.> Which is highly unreliable btw.
If anyone is interested, i could post some of the things i wrote... But i think only two and a half of my stories are worth posting, none of which is complete. I'll list em below anyway:
"The End", it's a sci fi taking place thirteen years after the end of the universe. All stars went kaboom, and there are none left. There are two "factions" at war with each other (One is like the zerg. Purely biological and trying to assimilate everything that comes in their way, the other faction is called "The Crusaders", which is practically AI gone religious fanatic - Everything organical is impure and to be purged (i.e. killed), so serial killing robots basically. Highly advanced serial killing robots). There are very little survivors of the previous empires and they are stuck fighting for their lives between the two factions, since neither wants them to live. The story follows the crew of a large advanced battlecruiser as they try to survive. 90 pages done, plotwise very little
"Son of the Devil", a story that bases around a "human" mercenary in an SC related universe (but far in the future compared to sc2 lore, where there are many factions of each race). He isn't really human, more of a genetic experiment gone out of hand. Someone tried to create a hybrid, but this time added human genes to it to make the person look human. The mercenary is practically invincible (Regenerates really quickly and has extremely hard bones, skin and flesh due to zerg genes) and posses psionic powers, which include him being able to temporarily turn into something similar to an archon (he keeps his shape but looks like living fire). Those powers made everyone believe he's the son of the devil. He doesn't have any memories from before waking up in front of a burning lab that officially doesn't exist, so he knows nothing about the gene experiments done on him. (very little) pages done
Not yet named, a fantasy story following a group of travelers/treasure hunters. Cant say too much without spoiling the story, but some badass evil spirits return and start killing village after village, and they end up killing the home village of some of the travelers, and they don't take it lightly. quite a lot done, dont have a definite number though

Bump, no posts :(
I write Warcraft and personal stuff (no StarCraft, I'm sorry :S).
I's mostly "timeline" and "design" text, not stories, but I think they're nice to read anyway :P.
