About the Author

Hailing from the serene shores of Nelson and then navigating through the urban maze of Auckland, Aria's interest in online gaming sprouted during their years in uni. Aria pursued a degree in Communication Studies at the University of Auckland, where they began freelancing as a localizer. The words they swear by are a Maori proverb: "Whāia te iti kahurangi ki te tūohu koe me he maunga teitei." ("Seek the treasure you value most dearly: if you bow your head, let it be to a lofty mountain."), signifying their relentless pursuit of excellence.
