I'm just another confused teenager, going through life, day by day, one step at a time. Of course, sometimes I stop, go backwards, or go more than a few steps, but I have the excuse I'm just a teenager, muddled about his own desires, dreams, and just wants.
Ok, enough about me at that depth.
I'm bright and somewhat educated, though clumsy both physically and mentally. I go for what interests me, though once I lose interest I often drop things pretty quickly. I like to help others with their problems/situations, but I tend to become dilemma'd because I often have problems and situations of my own to take care of.
It's been almost three years since I've been truly online. I've gone through many versions of myself, always going back to my original form. Some constantly changing piece of matter I named Tristar. Before I've been a gundam pilot, a dragoon (NOT in the FF sense), and a swordian user. Now I think I'm just some nut that belongs in another lifetime.
Yeah, I'm going into that depth again.

Anyhoo, a few years ago, a friend of my step-dad gave me a pack of used playstation games, and as I was a constant gamer at the time, I wallowed in the new number of games available to me. Among them was a Tales of Destiny CD, no manual or case. Interested by the artwork on the cd, I placed it in my psx.
The beginning of what I feel to be one of the best games I've ever played had begun.
Very few games had ever matched the experience I had with this game, it was very fun. A unique battle system (rpg + fighting in a GOOD way made this possible), nice storyline, funny dialogue...a lot of things.
Moving on, a year or so later, I recieved a dreamcast in a late january. I had my fun, playing Sonic Adventure and all that, until around february, I realized that I could go on the internet with it. Because a good comp would cost money to an already poor family, I was without the internet until then. After a good amount of coaxing, I had my account with AT&T Worldnet.
During the setup, I found that I could chat with other people, real-time. This was extraordinary for me, because until then I only had myself and my games for company besides my parents. (I never was all that social with the real world.) I soon had IRC taking over my time, majorly because there was an IRCGame on a server that I really liked, named IRChao.
After awhile, I wanted my own computer nonetheless, and through a rigorous amount of asking, I finally got a top-of-the-line computer package as of january 2001 or so.
Around spring or so, I came across a website owned by someone who I shall identify as Ruu. It was a Tales of Destiny site. Upon reading it, I came to replay the game, because the first time I played, I didn't get very far. (I still haven't gotten through the entire game yet, btw.)
While I was looking around her site, I came across her shrine to Leon Magnus (who also has alternative names like Lion and Rion), and it was my favorite site to go to. It had a nice look to it, a midi that settled itself into the subconscious while you looked through the site, and quite a few very-well-written stories and a writing dedicated to Rion. Although the site is now no more, it still is inside my mind and heart. I myself written something for the site, which still is my best work in my mind (mainly because it's the only true piece of writing I ever did finish).
That writing also gave me a new name for myself, which I would soon retreat to within the later parts of the year.
Sometime in the summer (or late spring, I forget now), I came across the Bob & George website. I took part in the forums for awhile, before moving to the chatroom. Later on, when the RolePlay channel was made, I moved there. And here I am.
In case you're wondering how the ToD stuff ties into this, just know that the game and everything related to it has helped me be what I am now, for one reason or another.
And in case you're still wondering, just realize that this is something I've written, which is not really supposed to make sense unless you know me at one point or another.
So in other words, if you don't know me at all, don't worry about it, you will soon enough.
