Hello, I’m Alan, a software engineer living in NYC! This is my personal website for archiving my commissioned artworks and documenting the lore of my original characters and the world they live in! I also use this as a way to learn more about web development, especially in regard to CSS and CI/CD! I also play Pokémon GO, Maplestory, Cardfight!! Vanguard, and Pathfinder 2nd Edition in my spare time. I hope you have a nice time looking at the artwork and at my very amateurish worldbuilding!

If you’re curious about how this website is made, the front end uses Astro and TypeScript, using BeerCSS to implement the Material You design language. For uploading and compressing images, I compress images by using Sharp endpoint located on project (when run in dev only), before uploading it to a S3 bucket. This website is updated on every commit to the main branch using a Github action that builds the website and deploys it to this URL through Cloudflare pages!

Stuff I’ve Made:

• Fluxbuilder: A character builder webapp for the Flux Fantasy TTRPG (v3 with support for multiple characters in progress!).
• Astral: A Minecraft mod about building a base in your head, and astral projecting to collect resources for it!
• VG Ridelines: A website that documents decks and prices for Cardfight Vanguard.
• TwoDee: A Discord bot to automate the Facets TTRPG system.

What I am working on:

• Astral Wave, a worldbuilding project set in a fictional post-scarcity 27th century civilization. It is centered around exploring morphological freedom through customizable avatars dubbed “Projections” and full-dive wargames as a means to train people on a variety of hard and soft skills to defend against extradimensional invaders.
• Porting this website to Astro!
• Adding more decks to VG Ridelines!
• Leveling up my programming and TTRPG gamemastering skills!
