Well...DeviantArt. A very cool site for sure. I've known about it for a while and browsed a bit. It's kinda slow, but the art you can find here is AMAZING. Beuatiful, beautiful pieces and I hope to contribute quite a bit of my own work.

My screen name Aeferna is the name of a character in an RPG I'm playing in "story mode." Which is the closest thing I guess to slang for a story collaboration with firiends where you have NO idea what the other person is doing. So I get a LOT of pleasant surprizes. It's just more fun and interesting that way.

Writing a story is hard, because you know just about everything that's going to happen so it gets boring after the initial creative processunless you have a really good discipline or will-power.

Anyway, Aeferna is the nickname for the Azren Dreadnaught, The Aefernal Fire. The Azren Commune hate artificial intelligence in every way possible because they had a nasty civil war with some of their own AI. So their ships are run by genetically altered "people" who are mindless beings, taking only orders and performing tasks. They do have vast amounts of intelligence and run the entire ship with a series of other "Adjutants" and ....wow this is really complicated.

Well, all but one of the adjutants died on The Aefernal Fire except for one. She was expected to die shortly after from the strain on her mind, but instead she thrived, and now even exhibits forms of consciousness, and even a personality.

This ship has become the flagship of the Azren Warlord and the adjutant lovingly nicknamed "Aeferna."

The name is a twist of "Infernal Fire."

...Probably inspired by all those Ghostrider comics I've been reading...
