Author Profile: Vaecrius
The eternal eccentric sidekick, Vaecrius spends much of his time trying to find that virtuous middle ground between his self-absorbed solipsism and need to latch onto hapless friends and leech off their motivation and proactivity. Well, not really, most of that time tends to be spend trying to avoid all obligations while trying to figure out what one had to do that had one first try to free oneself of all obligations. Babies and bathwater both splatter entertainingly on the street.
Fortunately, there is more to Vae's life than simply being the worst henchman you never bought. He is an accomplished trangulist, a suave womanizer in the kitchen and truly and honestly the most inspired actor who never memorized a line. His performance art has been recorded and played in the brothel-museums of Gzbamos IV to the delight of millions, and his greatest-selling children's book, No One Loves You And You Will Die In Suffering Alone (an edited version, titled Happy Butterfly Man's Adventure in the Dark Heart of Yuromptuon, is available in the People's Republic of Bzorgmus B21), has touched the hearts of children, adults and pale death-shades alike all across this or another galaxy. Vae is also a world-class sword-and-buckler fencer, having taken on opponents armed with everything from venomous snails to phaser-flamed Qlippothic hyperdimensional meta-quantum string disruptor dual gunblades (though this latter extreme was relegated to only one duel and maybe a half.) One must, of course, not forget his forays into metaphysics, whereby he re-created a miniature Yggdrasil with sheer thought, from that experiment and others proceeding from it producing thousands of papers with regards to the physical nature of Ragnarok and the economics of universal destruction. Additionally, unlike certain other BoF authors, he has never, does not and will never lie in his own bio. Such is the virtue of this great man!
Regarding his involvement with the Book of Fluids details remain sketchy. Perhaps a copout, though a step above unrecognizably blurry, one might suppose. Or, rather, he had simply agreed to the entire thing from the start, except that for the first two chapters he was pulling paradigmatically unworkable ideas out his ass. Falling thus back on an untried but deceptively formulaic-looking swashbuckler character, our intrepid author dove back into the fray, throwing gratuitous violence and offending nice people's sensibilities left and right. Then due to his great myriad of callings in his dazzling and glamorous career, Vae disappeared. Until...
