DrakonFin

Long-standing Finnish member of the board.

Contrary to popular belief, he's NOT a fan of the Draka series by S. M. Stirling. That would be stirlingdraka or some other board member.

Unsurprisingly, DrakonFin has an interest in Finnish AH scenarios.


Works

The Land of Sad Songs - A a Finnish spinoff of Protect and Survive. DrakonFin undertook the daunting task of writing this detailed and atmospheric 1980s timeline in the winter of 2011, and finished it some three years later, in 2014. Though the timeline never won any official awards, it was regularly nominated for them, and is considered one of the best spinoff timelines set in the set in AH.com's shared Protect and Survive Universe.

DrakonFin's previous attempt at a Finnish WWII era TL, The Lords of the North, remains unfinished.

Drakon's Lair is a thread he started, to which he contributes various AH short stories or other shorter AH narratives.

After the completion of his Finnish P&S spinoff, DrakonFin has been mostly concentrating on writing shorter fiction, from time to time. Some of the stories not featured in the Drakon's Lair forum are the following:

Standalone - A science fiction story. (See also this story-related artwork.)

Birdy - A StarReach Short Story - A science fiction story in the author's StarReach setting.

The Drive - A StarReach Tale - A science fiction story in the author's StarReach setting.

1908: A Story of War

Power to the People - Dispatches From Finland and Soviet Russia, 1929

The Regulars: A Cold War Story

The Reign of the Star-Boys - A Christmas Tale - A story in a mysterious setting (not spoiling the details).

All We Got - A short story submitted to the regular/irregular short story writing contest organised by Sea Lion Press, for the “European Union”-themed round of the contest (Autumn 2016).

Icebound, The Settler, The Ghosts of Sveaborg, When the Spring Comes, Spearhead, Midsummer Lights, Kingdom, The End of An Era - Vignette-style alternate history stories.

The Unknown - Vignette-style ASB alternate history stories.


In AH.com Fiction

In AH.com Enterprise, an eponymous analogue of him is one of the secondary characters of the main cast, acting as the field engineer or occassional commanding officer of MES-1 Allohistory's away teams. In addition to being a tech wiz, he's an expert sniper.
