My name is Nikita (Nick) or Nadezda (Nadya), and I've been maintaining this website since sometime in 2019. Originally I had made it to use as a sandbox and keep my OC information someplace accessible, but as I grew older and all that fun shit, I ended up adding more.
I was born in San Francisco and raised in the surrounding cities, but currently live on a ranch further north. My family descends from modern day Ukraine (Odessa and Poltava), but this was part of Russia at the time and we've always considered ourselves Russian. They moved here about a century ago at this point, however I still feel very connected to my heritage, and do what I can to honour my ancestors.
I am very passionate about language. Historical linguistics is very interesting to me, and I would ideally want to learn every language in the world, if I could. I translate many things into English to make them more accessible to a wider audience. I do caption work with some of my translations, though unfortunately due to copyright reasons I'm not sure when I'll upload them. My song translations are periodically uploaded here, but I have TONS, so they'll never all be up.
