VOICE ACTOR

       Hi, I’m Varia — a London-based writer and narrative designer with a background in theatre, film, and games.

I create rich worlds, flawed characters, and stories that linger long after the screen goes dark. 

      Need a snarky quest-giver? A villain with feelings? An emotional gut-punch in Act 3? Call me a fantasy fiend, a loot goblin, and the right person for the job.

      You can find my most recent work below. My CV is available for download here, and if you’d like to read more, some writing samples can be found here.

MY RECENT WORK

Hopetown 

Writer & Narrative Designer | Longdue Games | 2024 -

A narrative-driven, emotionally rich isometric RPG where space, feeling, and story collide.

As a writer and narrative designer, I help shape the world, characters, and story systems of Hopetown — from branching dialogue and lore, to psychogeography-inspired mechanics and skill trees.

I also wrote, produced, and directed the Kickstarter campaign video and promo content — which you can check out here.

Yes Your Grace 2: Snowfall

Quest Writer | Brave At Night | 2024

Wrote over 100 quests for this medieval fantasy kingdom management game, expanding on the world of Yes, Your Grace with character-driven branching narratives inspired by Slavic folklore. Focused on tone, emotional stakes, and meaningful player choice. Available on Steam and other platforms.

Kickback Slug: Cosmic Courier

Writer & Localisation | Kittens in Timespace | 2022–2023

Crafted dialogue and character barks for this quirky 2D platformer packed with humor and weirdness. Worked closely with the narrative lead to develop VO and in-game text, and translated UI and content into Russian to support localisation. Available on Steam and other platforms.
