Goddamn this page has been long overdue for a rework...
Omega Kross is a deeply cynical English troper, fond of videogames, anime, and collecting useless lumps of plastic shaped like attractive fictional women. He used to be quite active on this site, but nowadays only visits whenever he's looking something up for his writing or he needs to ask advice on a game. He has a Single-Issue Wonk about censorship in videogames, especially when it has to do with sexual content being censored, so bear this in mind if the subject comes up in discussion. He has recently decided to try to get back into writing after his previous project became so overblown that it had to be abandoned, and occasionally draws various anime characters and original characters from his stories. Most of his fiction deals with immortal characters, and fear of loss is central to everything he writes.
He's also the guy who wrote One-Handed Zweihänder.
(NOTE: The following list of favoured tropes, while still applicable, is now somewhat outdated. While he still likes tragic endings, lately he has begun to favour Earn Your Happy Ending and Bittersweet Ending as opposed to total Kill Em All type endings. However, Shoot the Shaggy Dog is still one of his favourite types of ending. If his fiction ever makes it onto the internet, expect to see this happen at some point. Additionally, while he still does not like Who Wants to Live Forever? being a character's default mindset when they become immortal, he has begun to explore the potential problems and repercussions of living forever, especially when it applies to Death Seeker characters.)
