Introduce myself.... hmm. okay!

myself being drakensisthered, or drakensis, or a misspelling/pronounciation of the above, I am more usually known as 'he who must never be permitted to raise his voice in song' or by the hebrew for 'like God'. Thankfully for the rest of creation, this is a lie, I am not at all like Her, since I am not a single parent (at least I think I'm not).

but enough of this frivolity. I work in a personal time zone in a job that uses computers but does not teach how to abuse them (and thus am reading up on UNIX in my spare time) and spend the rest of my time in Harrogate (nice place to live) or Huddersfield (better place to skive). Both of these being on the other side of the pond from many of the people on in the Forum I'm sure.

I like (scan bookshelves groaning under the strain) A LOT of RPGs and war games, currently being most interested in Heavy Gear, DragonBall Z and Inquisitor (ducks incoming flames) although I've got a long(ish) history with Battletech and the World of Darkness. Bookwise I favour military science fiction writers like David Weber, Eric Flint and Steve White. I also like the two T's of britiash comedy: Terry Pratchett ad Tom Holt. My favorite overalll though is Grunts by Mary Gentle. Of course, this is in no way secondary to my near obsession with fanfiction... of which I have started to write much, posted less (carefully hidden on my website: no one would ever look for it on a site with almost a hundred other fics posted) and finished an even smaller number. In my copious spare time I watch videos and write html for other, more busy people. Sigh... it's a good life.

Favorite Animes: Dragonball Z, Dual, Trigun, Gasaraki, Berserk, Streetfighter II V and Photon. I'd also like Macross 7 but it's got a lot in common with rockinghorse s*** right now.

How I found Eyrie fics?
Ummm... don't remember. It was while I was at Uni though... ah the good old university fo Hell, Scumberside, whence I came with a degree in geography and economics with extra credits in history... and all the job prospects of a wet herring with rabies.

Musically I like a fair range of rock: Def Leppard, Magnum, Meatloaf, Queen - as well as quite a few anime soundtracks I got hold of. Probably my overall favorite right now is 'Cry', the endtrack to 'Streetfighter II V' (the tv series), with 'My Omlette' from 'Dragon Half' and 'Tell Me Why' from 'Berserk' almost as favoured.

oh well, end of rant...
