About Linda Zayas-Palmer
Hi! I'm a TTRPG Freelancer and youtube streamer. I worked at Paizo for almost 10 years, most recently as the Development Manager of the Narrative Team.
My largest projects are Fires of the Haunted City, the fourth volume of Paizo's Age of Ashes adventure path, and Battle at Barnacle Bay, the third part of Battlezoo's Jewel of the Indigo Isles adventure path. I enjoy basically every aspect of writing for RPGs, from designing new rules and shaping lore to writing adventures. I'm known for my love of leshies (best seen in products like the leshy ancestry for Pathfinder Second Edition, the leshy heritages for Botanical Bestiary, and the Fistful of Flowers Free RPG day adventure [cowritten with the amazing Eleanor Ferron]).
Twice a week, I stream on Youtube as Arcane Mark, together with Mark Seifter. We discuss a variety of Pathfinder-related topics, from running workshops to make things like NPCs and magic items to giving GM advice to giving biased reviews of Paizo products. Sometimes we take a break from Pathfinder to stream a video game as well.
I've been playing tabletop RPGs since 2008, and primarily Pathfinder since 2010. I like other TTRPGs as well, such as FATE, World of Darkness games, and Mouseguard, as well as many video games and board games. Outside of gaming, I'm also a huge math nerd. I also enjoy puzzles, reading, singing, and watching TV.
