My name is RK. I write here under Daeleniel Shadowphyre, previously Dark_One Shadowphyre, previously Dark_One2813.

In 1998 through 1999, I was purely an Animorphs writer. Over the course of 2000, I became interested in other topics. In 2001, my range of writing topics broadened to span Animorphs, Harry Potter, Gundam Wing, Sailor Moon, TMNT, Daria, RPS, and others, even going out of the fan fiction genre. This is by no means a complete or continuously accurate list, as my interests fluctuate and change, adding new fandoms and subtracting others with time.

I tend to favor strong female characters when I can, but I try not to limit myself to that as I write a considerable amount of slash, or same-sex pairings. I've also got this preoccupation with death, the paranormal, and other unexplainable phenomena. And keep an eye out for the poetry; rushes of it tend to indicate a depressive streak. But there's no warning for when my insanity muse decides to pay me a visit, so be watchful.

Many of my stories, as well as a good many poems, are posted below. However, a large portion of my writing, including several stories previously hosted here, can now be found on ArchiveOfOurOwn.Com under the pen name "LadyShadowphyre".

For any original writing I may have posted, I can be found on FictionPress.Net under the same pen name as here. Be advised that, given my exceptionally paranoid nature and my desire to eventually publish my writing, very little of my work with original characters will be posted online.

Also, due to the number of stories I have which feature languages other than English - most of which I am attempting to learn on my own from books, audio courses, or online translators due to lack of a classroom environment - I would ask that any suggestions for translation modification be sent to me via PM rather than the public forum of reviews. It tends to come off as condescending which irritates me, and people don't deserve to be snapped at for what they view as trying to be helpful.

Enjoy.

Due to considerable disgust with the unilateral removal of fics based on complaints for violations of rules that do not actually apply to the fics in question without investigation by the staff, I have decided that any of my fics removed in this manner will not be reposted to this site. Should you discover a fic of mine has been removed and wish to locate it elsewhere, please contact me directly or look for my AO3 profile.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled profile. Thank you for your patience.
