About Crotovane

Hi! I'm Vane (24, any pronouns fine).

I'm an artist, gamer, web developer, and most importantly: someone with a Neocities account. This website serves as my digital safehaven.

I enjoy drawing, playing games, watching movies, horror, classical art, tabletop games and D&D, high fantasy, the soundtracks to Skyrim and The Witcher, esoteric media, cute plushies, open source software, modding, 6th- and 7th-generation video game consoles, Nintendo games, emulation, indie games, game development, the Yaukza: Like a Dragon series, queer readings of aggressively masculine media, the history of pirates, cartography, nature documentaries, the ocean, night time city photography, Japanese infrastructure, walkable cities, Wong Kar-Wai films, YouTube deep dives on weird anime, vlogs of people walking through cities in different countries, watching streamers roast David Cage games, Jerma985 compilations.
