Mawforged: The Descent

Mawforged: The Descent, produced by indie studio Axiosys, is the project I have been involved with since September of 2025. The game is still in active development and its release date is to be announced. It is a survival game set in the dark fantasy world of the Maw. Step into a resilient dwarf's shoes and explore the mysteries of this layered realm.

My main responsibility in the project is to lead the Narrative Department. I am in charge of communications between my department, our direct lead (the CEO), and all the other departments within the studio. I am also responsible for the upkeep of the department's OpenProject space, communicating about new tasks and feedback to my colleague (we are only two writers), and help establish and maintain studio structure and pipeline.

As a writer, I am currently responsible for the game's main storyline (main characters and the five-act narrative). I have also helped my colleague write the world's mythology and edit the lore for the starting zones of the game. In addition, I am actively participating in logistical documentation, such as PowerPoint presentations, research, and justification of design choices.

As a Narrative Designer, I am collaborating with all the other departments, especially Game Design, to ensure that every piece of story produced by the Narrative Department complements the gameplay. The entire process is about communication, openness, and creativity.

As an ongoing production, my work is under NDA. I cannot show anything here, but I have permission to showcase work during interviews.
