Name: Tutor Verititas (Latin, loose translation "defender of truth")

Interests: History, multiple kinds; Music, certain types of metal, rock, country, classical, traditional folk, Celtic, Big Band, Bluegrass, many more...; Reading, writing fiction, history non-fiction and non-text book; trying to understand the fundamental question of "Why"

Beliefs: all are born equal, but our accomplishments and failings distinguish ourselves from our peers; Loyalty to your Country Always, Loyalty to your Government When Deserved; The Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and Bill of Rights are the documents which will allow us to create a more perfect union, for men are transitory where as the Charters of Freedom will live forever in the beliefs of the United States.

Beta-reading status:active

To all who choose to read my work, be welcome and in good company. I write for the joy of the act, the moment when the epic and heroic scene pours onto the page; the slow, somber, heart-wrenching and tear-jerking scene which keeps readers up at night, wondering what happens next. I do this for the joy of writing, but I enjoy entertaining others as well. If you choose to read, then do so. If you disagree with what I write, close the window. If you believe my writing is dull, close the window. Don't complain over something that is fundamental about myself, because it only leads to arguments which go nowhere. If you have a witty comment about my work, write it. If you have an informed, well thought out critique or criticism then write and tell me so I may correct my mistake or explain in a message.

Enjoy the stories, and live well for the moment and for the future with a clear conscience.

Gratia,

Tutor Verititas

Stories:

In progress:

Fallout New Vegas - From the Night: Alex Hugh, Courier, shot and left for dead. He recovers and searches for answers, of those who attacked him, the package he carried and of his own past. Along the way, he will meet people-of strong and weak character both-they will help or they will impede. Those who follow will be forged anew, given new purpose and another chance. In the Mojave, one may find their redemption beneath the burning sun or damnation in the frigid wastes shrouded in night. (Multiple pairings, original characters, and plenty of story; mostly T but maybe rated M for some things, use your own discretion)

Complete:

Mass Effect II - Through the Fire and the Flames (named for the song by Dragonforce, original inspiration from that song. About a Shepard whose past haunts him and continues to do so after years. One day, he receives a message and believes the time to face his past has come. He turns to Tali, his friend, comrade-in-arms, and now lover for support and guidance as the demons of his past life come crashing back. His only redemption is by a Trial of Fire)
