Who is Vela Nanashi?

[Vela Nanashi]

Vela has many meanings, in my native tongue Swedish it means: shillyshally, dilly-dally, basically to not make up ones mind. I created the name for a shape changer who loved changing shapes, the first incarnation of that shape changer was a grey elf sorceress, but then I created the more true pure form of the concept, an eldritch abomination ooze in its own pocket dimension, that grows with it, and it cracks reality and seeps through those cracks to create many bodies that change shape, and go explore those worlds, originally what drove it, as an ooze, was its never ending hunger, the more it eats, the bigger it grows, the more hungry it is, but it ate the corpse of a fey creature, a female, and after that she learned that there are other beings that think, and even learned how to think herself, so she stopped eating everything, and learned to make friends and lovers, and she now appreciates them a lot more than food, but also loves the foods they make, with spices and partially burning them over a fire, or boiling them in water, and other mind boggling things, so she now enjoys eating food made by mortals, more than just eating everything she comes across.

So that is Vela, who represents the spirit of lust, gluttony, desire, creation, hunger, that I have

Vela has other meanings too, it is a type of sail, a region of space, that includes the Vela Pulsar come closer and feel my love (gravity)

Nanashi is Japanese for anonymous, or more correctly without a house/family I think, I am not a speaker of Japanese though, I will not tell you a lot about myself, ever, you will never meet me in real life, just enjoy me as I present myself here if you want, or do not, I have reasons for not wanting to share my real self, as I have been in danger when I did so in the past, been hurt from doing so, so I will not do that again.

I prefer to communicate in English as there are more glorious words in that language, I can read/write/speak Swedish too, but I prefer not to, I don't want to moderate a Swedish language section at this time, but if there are other Swedish folks out there that want that and will help out, then maybe we could add that.

I am a coder, but I am broken, a pile of rust, I can't code consistently every day, but I have modified and enhanced some extensions to better be like we wanted them to, and I will continue to work on that, to try to improve this forum.

I am a writer, though I am not sure I am any good yet, but I enjoy writing

I also have ambitions to learn drawing, music, singing, electronics and a lot of other creative endeavours, that is how my family is, we like picking up more and more creative skills/talents

I prefer not to write about the real world, my writing is always an escape from the real world for me, often to places where I would want to be rather than here, as to me the real world is suffering, pain, agony, but also has a few nice things in it too.

But that is quite enough babbling about me, let's all have fun here

I'm so glad you are here and part of the team, Vela. And I love how much effort you put into choosing your name. I was so lazy in comparison, lol.
