About the Author:

Ryder Rothmore is a lifelong storyteller based in Central California. Since childhood, Ryder has had an active imagination and a love for dreaming up adventures, characters, and entire worlds.

As a teenager, he discovered GaiaOnline, where role-playing communities sparked his passion for collaborative storytelling, character creation, and art. From there, he began filling notebooks with original stories, building an expansive universe that grew alongside him.

Ryder’s work spans richly imagined realms—including Levintol, Ether Island, Magesc, Alvoria, and Aetherealm—where interconnected dimensions and unforgettable characters come to life. He believes every story is a chance to explore new possibilities, whether they stand alone or weave into the larger tapestry of his universe.

Magic & Mushrooms is the main hub for Ryder’s writing, art collection, and character profiles. It’s here that you’ll find glimpses into the worlds he creates and the characters who inhabit them.

When he isn’t writing, Ryder enjoys spending time with his partner and three cats, brainstorming new ideas, playing video games, collecting pins, and bringing his favorite original characters to life.
