A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Sword & Key co-founder, @evaserrate.bsky.social !
When she isn't producing, playing in, or running games with S&K, Eva is a friend, partner, and pet-parent to practically a small zoo's worth of animals.
We love & appreciate you for all you are and all you do!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
