A scene from Destiny 2: Renegades, where the Drifter is thawed out from a block of ice by his Ghost, Blue. I wrote the script for this sequence in Final Draft, including directions for actors and movements, and it was brought to life by our wonderful partners in the Animation, NPCs, Lighting, and Sound departments, among others.

Prose

Loretab for the exotic sword ‘Ergo Sum’. This was a highly anticipated weapon among the community, as it was shown in a previous expansion atop the player Guardian’s grave. The loretab was similarly highly-anticipated, and I was tasked to write a tab from the perspective of the Traveler, showing glimpses of both its long history, and its personal view of the player Guardian.

Drama | Gameplay

Dialogue for the Destiny 2 strike ‘Liminality’. Written in Excel, imported into proprietary tools, iterated on throughout development as gameplay and story needs changed. I was also present during remote voice recording sessions to give context to the voice director and actors.

Zavala, pushed to emotional extremes, wants to do whatever is necessary to stop the Witness. Ikora, afraid of losing another friend, tries to talk him down. This emotionally-charged fight between longtime friends was praised by fans.

Prose

The lorebook included in the Collector’s Edition of Destiny 2: The Final Shape. I was tasked to write an in-depth exploration of the civilization that gave rise to the expansion’s major antagonist, the Witness, presented as a review of uncovered primary source material by the Eliksni Scribe Eido. I wrote many of the pages around existing lore, such as the Black Armory Papers or scenes set during the Collapse, and developed many of the details about this precursor civilization. This lorebook was created with an exceptionally tight turnaround time of one month in order to be ready for print.

An excerpt of a script from Touchstarved, written in Naninovel for Unity. This can be experienced in the demo (itch.io | Steam). I wrote both of Mhin’s solo scenes in the demo; please inquire if you’d like to see more of the script as plain text!

An excerpt from Potions Please! Includes quests, dialogue, and loading screen tips. The game was intended to be light-hearted and comforting, in the vein of Animal Crossing.
