    paper Content Creator - For Whispers of the Yokai TTRPG

    Creator & Narrative Lead

    Whispers of the Yokai began as my original concept and continues to be guided by my creative vision. In partnership with Resurrectionist Games, I lead narrative development, worldbuilding, and thematic design—crafting a setting rooted in folklore, mystery, and spiritual unease. My role bridges concept and execution, ensuring the game’s mechanics, art direction, and writing all reinforce its core atmosphere.
