As a fellow writer, I strive to deliver the best stories possible, and as a reviewer of those whose stories I read, I try my best to give them the best reviews. I am a huge wannabe Marine, which explains why all of my stories revolve around military engagements. This is why all my stories are tagged with an "M" rating, for extremely realistic violence, language, crude humor, and adult situations. This doesn't mean that all my stories are just big guns, sex, and swearing. I do everything possible to shape the plot into something that is possible in the world that my story takes place, not just some crazy alternate universe crap. I detail my stories enough that, given the right set of events, have the actual possibilities of being accepted as paths that the original series could have taken. This is the level of writing that I demand of myself. I encourage readers of my stories to review, because even though it doesn't seem like it, your reviews do make a difference in which way I take my stories.

Other than writing, I love video games (Halo being my favorite series, duh), anime, paintball (which is as close to real combat as I can get), and books written by Tom Clancy (this man is a saint when it comes to understanding how military and politics go hand in hand).

As a side note, after my time co-writing for my good friend SecondSeraphim (read his stuff, it's awesome), I realized that I am slightly better at writing short action sequences than full blown stories. So, while I will not give up on my stories, if you need an action scene for your fic, PM me and I'll see what I can do.

The squad "Alpha One," current callsign being "Spade" in my story "Love and War," is a group of five of the toughest Marines on the planet. Depending on how I work things out, they will play major roles in most of my stories (if I every get to writing more of them). The character bios are as follows:

Gunnery Sergeant Steven Arezza: My persona, the complete opposite of my real world self. One of the best Marines around. Athletic, smart, and can handle any situation. Knows twenty-three different martial arts styles, of which he as officially "mastered" two. After suffering a traumatic experience during is first combat mission in South Korea (more info to come in my stories), he came down with Millson's Syndrome, which was diagnosed and coined by the on base doctor, Rebecca Millson (more info to come). Since then, he has done everything in his power to be the best of the best. He gained numerous promotions, and quickly became the leader of the best Force Recon squad in the Corps. He is also the creator of an extremely unorthodox and deadly combat style, which he based off of one of his favorite movies. The biggest reason for his absolute dedication to the Corps: redemption...

More bios to come at a later time.
