Another character of mine that has a deep backstory is Dia Augustopolou, the Custodi pilot-general-spy. Unfortunately the arc I had most fun writing did not end up getting finished, but the three stories that I did write I think are good, especially because they experiment with form heavily. Cities in the Distance is her view of Gallia through the lens of New Paris, Employee of the Month is a detective story looking for the missing ambassador of Custodi in Gallia, Reflections on the Revolution in Gallia is a one-sided dialogue story detailing Custodi views on the Gallic revolution (it's also pretty meta because the revolution doesn't make sense oorply either). The arc was supposed to finish with a political transformation of the Custodi nation in Crete but I lost interest in Disco and it's probably going to stay unfinished.

Finally the character I've been playing for the last couple of years and I guess people already know is me is Jennifer Haze/Mel Rose. It started as a simple bounty hunter character, but character development with a few people (Toaster, Tenshi) ended up turning her into a proper fully-fledged character. Jennifer Haze Does Not Exist is the first step of that transformation where she realises that she is getting old and assassin life is not for her. Filing Cabinet is a novel attempt at storytelling using formal documents. Swords into Plowshares details that transformation and is probably one of the best stories I've written in Disco. Liminality is a 11-paragraph-long vignette of her stay in hiding. Past to Present is a finale to the transformation arc and I think is also pretty good.

Anyway I guess that's it. There was a lot more material in the faction descriptions that I've written over the years but these recent stories are probably the best I've done.

That is a lot of good roleplay. I added the Vergil Collection to my reading list. I'd love to read all of what you posted but I don't think I'd be able to keep up with all that.

Damien Morreti's wiki article is a thing I wrote because I felt like writing a bio but not actually doing it in an oorp manner.

Anything else you're proud of, community?

No.

Echoes has been a big labor of personal effort and joint work for me and some others.

A continuation of this story in one post that I did some background writing with @Kauket before making my return to the community. Basically picking up the plot from a long-running character arc.

tl;dr

AI, engrams, alien tech, funky battleships, a splash of romance, exposition, and galaxy-ending doom

Only real story I've been really proud of (at least amongst the new stuff): Lost to the wind

Thought the title of this was going to be "Screw it! Give me your IP!"
