Shannon Master is a sound designer, game designer, and musician. They love telling stories and evoking powerful emotions with their creative projects.
They went to a girls school before realizing that they are in fact non-binary and prefer they/them pronouns. They are a huge advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights and hope to tell queer stories, normalize queerness through the games they make, and create safe spaces for others in the community wherever they go.
They enjoy playing video games, especially multiplayer games like Stardew Valley and Minecraft (with a focus on the farming aspects). No seriously, they've never played Minecraft without building an expansive farm with every single veggie and animal they can get their hands on.
Shannon's favorite franchise is the Legend of Zelda. While they are relatively new to the series, having started with Breath of the Wild, they are determined to play every game eventually. So far they have collected the original two NES cartridges, Link's Awakening, Ocarina of Time, Skyward Sword, BOTW, and TOTK.
They are also an avid cosplayer, though their looks are nowhere near professional. It's all for the fun though! Characters cosplayed include Link (of course), a Camp Halfblood camper, Pollution (Good Omens), a Plague Nurse, and Fabian Seacaster (Dimension 20).
