The Vulture (sometimes abbreviated to TV) is a relatively new member (and gaysexual) from the Midwest United States, characterized by his liberal politics and his love of Thai cuisine and Danish beer. His historical interests are eclectic in nature and essentially just revolve around whatever he finds interesting. His notable works include his ongoing timeline [[timelines:The Eighth Continent]] and the short story Game of Death, both found in the ASB forum, as well as the After 1900 prose TL The Revolution Will Be Live. He is also an early member of [[the Honourable Gentlemen's Club]]. | ====== The Vulture ====== |
