WorldEmber 2024

Hey there! Name's MJ and I was born and raised in the Swedish forests. Ever since I was four years old and borrowed my grandmother's typewriter, I've been writing and creating stories in my head. Became an actress because of it. Still am. Avaleen is by no means the first world I have created, but it is in many ways the biggest.

Those who know me know that I am a gamer at heart, but always denied myself to game. I know it's weird, I turned 30 and learned better -ok? So D&D entered my life with a cannonball through my defenses in the form of Critical Role and I thought "welp, guess this is my life now". Matthew Mercer and all the rest of them are such massive inspirations for me these days. They are actors, voice actors, storytellers and story creators. And D&D somehow makes it possible to combine all of it.

So I took a couple of stories that never found their home, or their endings. They just collected dust on the virtual shelf on a harddrive. Always thought that was a pity. So why not create a universe? I had this book no one wanted to publish, why not combine my love for those characters and that story with my passion for D&D? Hello Avaleen!

This is the journey I am on now. Some of it is good. Some of it is not. All of it is for me. And all of it is for you too, if you want.

Interests & Hobbies

Sword fighting and cinematic action, crocheting, hiking and coffee.

Favorite TV Series

Jane the Virgin and Lucifer. Arrowverse, except Batgirl and Black Lightning, I just keep forgetting to keep watching them. I love Fallout, Timeless, Agents of SHIELD, Continuum, Sanctuary, Blindspot, How I Met Your Mother, NCIS (all of them), Death in Paradise, Father Brown and the odd Midsummer Murders. I love Saving Hope, Hudson & Rex and all the Stargate save that last one. I love Star Trek, every single one. I have enjoyed some of Marvel’s series and the Star Wars ones, and got about six seasons into both Game of Thrones and Supernatural. Doctor Who, modern era. I remember falling in love with Legend of the Seeker, and Buffy and Firefly. Adore the Witcher and Broadchurch season 1. I’m a sucker for Jessie, Alexa & Katie, Wizards of Waverley Place and Pokemon, as I am for Sabrina (both actually) and Riverdale. I was obsessed with Eureka and wrote fan fiction for the original Charmed, despite not being able to write in English very well. Hollywood is amazing. And 7th Heaven taught me a lot.
