The Shadow: My Insane Imaginative World

I can remember enjoying writing game- or movie- based FanFiction since I was quite young- some time around 7 or 8, if I remember correctly. My first focus was the popular computer game "Fate," one which I based a (albeit a weak and certainly incomplete) FanFiction. It associated the "CtrlShift" cheat and using the command "Cat" to build up entire massive armies of cats which would keep me safe from basically anything in the dungeon. I took this game practice and used it to come up with a story of a warrior named "Alegrador." I then took the stroyline behind the game itself, a wanderer strumbling upon a legendary town, to create the prospect that Alegrador had entered into a great and powerful military force of these cats to fight an evil beast of the dungeon named Nightslayer.

Of course, this was actually taking the name of a boss from the game itself (I didn't tend to have a very good level of baseless creativity at the time). From there it basically followed a Starwars-like theme, Alegrador was coerced into joining the heirarchy of villains and almost win, until one hero posed a threat to the heirarchy's dominion. This was only my first of many, though. In some time around early 5th grade (Let's see... so I was 9 at the time) I hit a creative slump and, instead of focusing my creativity into literature, into art and general education, as this was the time when it began to overwrite my free time, what with the excuse that 6th grade was going to be any harder (quite the opposite happened). Then, just before Summer ended, I began recieving a steady supply of tiny paper journals (very, very tiny. xD) in which I wrote very short short stories which accumulated a large variety of characters which I took from games and movies, like before.

My largest focus at the time was the The Legend of Spyro series, for which I created a twisted character, Sierda. Sierda was the product of my poor attention span while watching the commercial for the first of the three LoS games, in which I confused it talking about Sierra entertainment, one of the companies that designed it, with it calling the antagonist, Cynder, Sierda. I felt quite stupid later after realizing my folly, but it certainly did give me a platform for reaching my current state of imaginative being, so to speak. With a friend of mine, Dylan, I quite childishly came up with a fake organization "ISHOT," aka Imaginary Super Heroes of Time. Pathetic, yes, but this would only get better and better as time passed and I associated a new obsession with space, as well as an ages-old concept of mine, Dark M, or the Dark Master.

The Dark Master was also a concept that was born of my lack of attentiveness in my young age (thank goodness for ignorance). I tried to imagine at the time what the Dark Master of the LoS series would look like. So, lacking a maganize of creativity, I decided upon a bipedal, samurai-armoured being made almost completely (or mostly) of Dark Energy, with a voice something of a General Grievous. Anyways, with him in mind, I began putting myself in the role of the hero, as many kids a few years younger that I would have. At the time I was the biggest social failure of my grade, as I rejected the tenents of bland behavior and social elitism, as I call the trend of a few controlling the standards of the many in spite of morals. I was wierd, plain and simple, and at that had a short fuse for mental abuse. I can mostly pin this on my PDD-NOS, although it could be quite otherwise. I just like to think often times that my immaturity was unavoidable.

I'd rather that immaturity than being a bandwagon like every other teenage half-wit that I knew, anyways.

But I digress (frequently). Some time in the summer before 7th grade, I straightened up and strangled my temper. I went into a sort of Daoist state, in which everything was well and peaceful with the world. I probably got this from watching too much Kung-Fu Panda, and proceeded by listening to Ancient Chinese music, which was actually highly relaxing to me. Meanwhile, most of my writing was still disorganized and random, as somewhere along the line all my originality and the entire great empire that I'd created in the depths of my mind degraded down to a fine powder. Like a mental Dark Age. It didn't last too terribly long, though, as I took the usable chunks of stone in that massive pile of dust and quickly rebuilt it in a newer and more improved image. The ISHOT, the idea which had died and rotted to a corpse, was the single greatest leap into rebuilding everything I'd created. ISHOT became ISHOTA, the Intergalactic Super-Harnylese Organization and Tactics Agency.

I took old Dark M off the shelf and at the helm of the Dark Federation, greatest enemy of the ISHOTA and a powerful foe who almost won the war against ISHOTA until I put just a dash of creativity into making the story's hero, Jonathan States. Jon is a normal student from Sheridan, Wyoming, but stumbles upon the ISHOTA through an unlikely character. His powers, to control a wide array of Elements (how creative, eh? -_-), are those which the ISHOTA has desired in a fabled "Chosen One" to save the Galaxy from Dark M's iron-fisted rule. The ITTC, Interstellar Technologies Trade Center, was a side dish which could play a small but important role of the Switzerland of the ISHOTA-Dark Federation conflict, providing supplies and support to whichever so desired and profiting. However, the ITTC is a trade empire whose base of operations is a massive, pracically indestructible Space Fortress with all tech necessary to any situation, no matter how powerful the attacker. Except on a great occasion...

With this extensive new world, I began to write the first major series, Elements. That continues to today. There's a lot more details to it, but I'm not going to go over every little thing. That would take waaaaay too much time.

With that, my Autobiography is complete. :D

I've not started any FanFiction stories yet, although quite soon I will, more than likely Legend of Spyro-based. I've already a quite decent idea in the works for a reality cross-over associating a bit of complex physical theory. I'm good at that sort of Sci-Fi writing, moreso than any other.
