A warning to the wise: this bio is very long. Long as in longer than your attention span. As in longer than the Golden Gate Bridge. As in longer than Mr. Kuhn's biology lectures. As in longer than a Sailor Moon girl's hair. As in it's getting longer while I make up this crap to use as metaphors. I'm about to have to add a table of contents. But that, of course, would make it even longer...

Announcements:

And then what...

It's been a long time, but I may just do some more work on the old FFs. I've decided that I might proceed with my Starwars fic anyway.

I'm still keeping Teen Titans: "The Prince of Shadows" down. I must thank KuteVirgo, RoseMorningstar, AP gato, and KittyMoon for reviewing the original version. Yeah, the original. That's not the end of my most-reviewed-story-ever! (well, only because I reviewed myself to rebutt a claim that I stole someone else's idea) A new version, with new chapters, may some day exist.

Attention all Z.O.E. fans: I'm starting a new one of those, and this time I'm taking it a bit closer to Earth. Take a look at the "Future Projects" area.

New Chapters Up Since September 1st, 2004:
(No new chapters)

Biographical Info:

There's a new Werrwulf around these days, I suppose. I'm always changing. Since I've given up hate for people, "gothed myself out", and decided that maybe I won't get much done each weekend, I've decided to get to the point with this bio. So I'm remodeling it... again. I always change my mind about things. That's why I don't get much written. But I have boundless ideas. More than you'd expect from an ADD-lycanthrope-Christian-gothy kid. I think. But let's get a bit more in-depth:

Basic Info:
Real Name: My parents named me "Sam". You should call me Werrwulf, though.
Gender: Male
Age: Still not telling (but was I asked before? I forget...) I'm a teenager, okay? (RoseMaiden will tell you the same thing)
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 165, and that's an approximation.
Eye color: Hazel
Hair color: Once black, but going back to brown. sob
Personality: A true clash. There's my normal loner-type thing going on. I don't talk to anyone but myself during those times of day. Then I've got a far more outgoing side that only appears around my friends. Then I just don't shut up.

I find it hard to stay depressed. Some days I'm really good at it, but then I sort of have to stop fronting. I guess it's a front. In a way, it's the truth, my depression, that is. You honestly don't know what it's like to be me, and see so much good and so much bad in everything.

I now consider myself a Christian Goth. It's way easier than inventing my own little counterculture, and way more practical. I've come to realize that the church needs to get its bum in gear, or else the Apocalypse is on its way as I speak. I've decided to see what I can do about it. If those darned "holier-than-thou" people can't get it through their heads that not everyone is a good little church-mouthed perfectionist, then I'll be sure to give them a piece of my mind. Jesus is the way. Faith, not works kiddies.

John 6:29

"And Jesus answered: 'The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent."

Deal with it, ing legalists.

What I like to write about, and what I just like anyway:
Original works: I'm starting these up again. I've got several big ones planned. I don’t really mention them here.

Poetry: Poetry is a great form of art. I can write half-decent poetry anywhere, anytime. It's hard for me to be truly inspired, but it happens. I don't announce any fanfic poems I write here, so you won't be able to learn about future projects. My favorite poets are Edgar Allen Poe and Kevin Max-Smith of DC Talk. My favorite poem is "The Conqueror Worm" by Poe. It's dark, but it's really good. I don't really read poems that much. Most "poetry" I know is in songs. Demon Hunter is surprisingly poetic, though they're a metal band. Andrew Schwab of Project 86 does some great poetry.

Anime: I like anime a lot, and there's generally something I DON'T like about it that I'd change. Expansion is always fun. I like Silent Mobius, Outlaw Star, Inu Yasha, Cowboy Bebop, Big O, Geneshaft, GateKeepers 21, Gungrave,Yu-Yu Hakusho, Rurouni Kenshin, Case Closed (Detective Conan), and Last Exile.
Favorite characters:
Big O: (hehehehe) Norman
Gungrave: Brendon, then Bunji
Last Exile: Alex, then Lavie, I suppose...
Outlaw Star: Sazuka or Jim
Cowboy Bebop: Jet or Vicious
Rurouni Kenshin: Sanosuke, followed by Saito
Yu-Yu Hakusho: Kuwabara (he's a loser, and I feel for him)
GateKeepers 21: Reiji
Inu Yasha: Sango or Koga
Silent Mobius: Ganossa Maximillian
Geneshaft: Mario
Case Closed: Detective Moore (Heheheh... Conan's comic relief...)

Movies: I don't watch many movies. I just don't like to. I think most these days are too dirty to be good. My favorite movie is "The Omega Code 2: Megiddo". Also among my favorites are: The Matrix, Johnny English, Hot Shots! (original and Part Deux), Children of Dune, The Mummy, The Mummy Returns,Star Wars (pick one), Stargate, The Omega Code, and Left Behind 1 and 2.

Books: I LOVE Dune by Frank Herbert. Very excellent. His son's expansions (or at leastwhat I've read of them) are just as outstanding. I've long been a fan of C.S. Lewis and Lloyd Alexander, as well. Look up David Hobson some time. You'll be surprised. Gordon R. Dickson's sci-fi stories like Spacial Delivery and The Last Master are top-notch. I finished Dorsai, and I'd recommend it. Also, Christopher Paolini's Eragon is likely the best thing I've read as of late. Definitely worth a read. New to my favorites are Shadowmancer and Wormwood by G.P. Taylor. Dark spiritual fiction with a point. Absolutely awesome, though oddly lacking in exclamation points. Beats me.

Cartoons: I've mostly stopped watching cartoons. Suprisingly, I was obsessed with Teen Titans not so long ago. (Favorite Titan: Raven)
I'm also a fan of Megas XLR, and I am not ashamed.I have a habit of tuning in to Futurama on random occasion, and I'm a recovering Aqua Teen Hunger Force addict. King of the Hill is, however, the next best thing to anime. I tend to appreciate the dark humor of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. Grim rocks thy socks.

TV: It's hard to find good television shows these days. I'm a long-time fan of Stargate: SG-1, though. I'm also a fan of Monk, Mail Call, Sue Thomas: F.B.Eye, and some other junk. I like TechTV's X Play to a certain extent. As far as music video shows go, I love The Ten Most Wanted on TVU, VideoZone on AngelOne, and #1 Countdown Rock, Uranium, and Rockzilla on FUSE.

Videogames: Videogames make you stupid. It's a proven fact. If I'd never played video games, I'd probably be in college right now. But I like them. Among my favorites:
PS2: Dark Cloud 2, Kingdom Hearts, Ratchet & Clank 2: Going Commando, Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal, Front Mission 4
GameCube: Phantasy Star Online, Skies of Arcadia: Legends, Super Smash Brothers Melee, Mario Kart: Double Dash
Gameboy Advance: Advance Wars (original and Black Hole Rising), Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, Golden Sun (original and The Lost Age), Zone of the Enders: Fist of Mars
Super Nintendo: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Super Mario RPG

Werrwulf's Thoughts On:

Harry Potter: Worthwhile literature, but not my cup of tea. It's fanfics outnumber the next challenger by 110,000. Nuts.

Slash/Yaoi/Shounen-Ai/Shouji-Ai: I don't care how you spell it, it's still wrong. I don't read slash fics. It's gross, wrong, unnatural, and, worst of all, misrepresented by a pathetically tolerant media. I know some people can't help it, but I don't want to see it.

Sex Scenes in General: Do you people really have to write them? I'll avoid them, but when they jump in PG-13, it's called an abuse. Deal.

Reviewing: If you're going to review, use some darned constructive criticism. There's a difference between a useful rebuke and a flame. In general, though, I like to be told when I'm good and when I'm bad. I KNOW I can improve, so don't lie to me. I quote an old colleague of mine:

"Stop blowing sunshine up my a!"

Strong Language: I don't see the necesity of profanities. I bleep mine and get them out of my system. Punctuating something with a sour word is primitive and often useless. You should see one of my new chapters, though. Military talk.

Blood/Gore/Violence: I honestly don't care. I probably should, but I don't. I like it, actually. Depends on how good you are at fight scenes.

Pairings: I have very few preferences as far as pairings go. Aside from yaoi. Ya already know my "thoughts" on that. I myself tend to go with the conventional pairings. A few deviations:
-Rurouni Kenshin- Sanosuke and Tae (as opposed to Megumi. There's nothing wrong with her, but I always think of Tae as the right girl for a brawler.)
-Teen Titans- Not in favor of anything different here, but I don't believe in Raven and Beast Boy in the long run.
-Skies of Arcadia- Vyse and Fina (I'm just not a big Aika fan.)
-Yu-Yu Hakusho- (Yoko) Kurama and Koto (it just seems... appropriate.)

Current Projects: (All titles #$! tentative)

"Zone Of The Enders: Luna Recollection":
Title still in the works. I've decided to add a brand new element to the Z.O.E. Universe: The Moon. The first place Earth ever settled was the moon, better known to its inhabitants as Luna. Nearly forgotten by the universe, the great sphere in the Terran night sky is, in 2171, the home of nearly eighteen million "Lunars". This is a world where the UNSF reigns supreme, and any hints of resistance are absent. Seven years after a mysterious ship crashes onto its surface, strange things begin happening. Metatron-LEVs, better known as OFs, are sighted in several locations. Small settlements are found completely destroyed. The populace, used to a hard silence under Earthlings, begin to question their quiet reliance on Earth. A group called the Lunar Liberation Front makes itself known. Could this be BAHRAM in disguise? What is the Martian terrorist group doing on Luna? Does the UNSF stand a chance?

Who is going to stop them?

I finished a GREAT intro. (...at least Ilike it...)I'm going to do the first three chapters before I put anything up. Motivation, kiddies!

"Dune: Memories of Dar-Es-Balat"
Sure, it's reasonably dead, and none of it's been put here, but this is my effort to continue the Dune series by Frank Herbert. Kwisatz Haderach-y goodness, and more Tleilaxu than you can stand! I'm gonna refurbish chapters 1 and 2 and put 'em here...sometime...

"The Matrix: Enter the Wulfix"- I can't think of a good name for my new Matrix fanfic, so that's it for now. My friends at CafeGamer are helping me out with the characters. That's all I have to say, except for the fact that it appears dead.

"Silent Mobius: The Long Fall To Hell"
I'm pretty proud this thing here, and chapters 3 and 4 are now up! They're so pleasantly violent, but I don't think I need to raise the rating yet. I will anyway, though. I started chapter 5, and it's doing alright. It should be a bit shorter, as I wanna get back to another of the battles. I introduce a very important character in this fic, and you may be seeing more of him sometime...

"Rurouni Kenshin: The Swedish Blade": Ridiculous as it sounds, Kenshin and the gang encounter an old friend, a new enemy, and a mysterious Scandinavian mercenary who seems to know more about the new threat to Japan than they do...
It's up now, and that's twiggy enough.
Twiggy is my word for cool, FYI.
Chapter 4 is up, and I've got a start on chapter 5.
I've not gotten much work done, but I'm outlining characters for the final battle! WOOHOO!

"Zone of the Enders: I Close the Book on this Dark Chapter": The name's finally been changed, and will change again, once I think of something decent... which could take awhile. Anyway, this happens after the Fist of Mars on...well...Mars. I'm in it! WOOHOO! Chapters 1 through 6 are up, and I'm waiting for reviews before starting Chapter Seven.

"Stargate SG-1: Atum": What's more ancient than Anubis? Who are the Ogdoad? Is there really such a thing as Set-Nun? The SG-1 team gets caught up in it all.
I'm now saying that I won't do this one, as the new season has essentially destroyed any context I had. But I'm still considering the IDEA of this fic.

Stories taken down until I DO work on them:

"Teen Titans-The Prince of Shadows": It's easily one of my favorite stories by yours truly. But I'm making some revisions. If you read the announcements, it'll be back up sometime soon... I hope.

Future Projects: (Whenever I get around to them, and titles are certainly subject to change)

"Case Closed: The Reluctant Assassin"- Richard encounters an unusual case, where he must prove or disprove a famous hitman's involvement in a government murder. I'm really, really, really not saying anything else. It's a great idea I've got here. Strange, but of good quality. Just wait.

"Rurouni Kenshin: Bullets/No Light": Sure, I'm already working on a RK fanfic, but who cares? This will be an alternate universe songfic set either to Creed's "Bullets", 3rd Strike's "No Light," or maybe both. It's Rurouni Kenshin with a slightly altered storyline...and guns instead of swords. Set in a combo of Tokyo and New York City, with gangs and thugs and police officers, oh my!

"Yu-Yu Hakusho: Dark Tournament Chaos"- Still working on the name. Happens during the Dark Tournament. Teams Toguro and Yurameshi still make it to the finals, but a mysterious third team appears, planning to start a set of four battle royales. Mostly planned for the action and development of my OCs.

"Star Wars: Fatalis"- Almost a millenium prior to the events in the movies, the Jedi and Sith are at war. But the tide begins to take a series of turns as a Sith Lord calling himself Darth Fatalis sets about destroying everything in his path in a strange effort to "destroy the Force itself". Only a young, brash Yoda can stop him...

Future Songfic Lineups:
Hey, I think songfics are a really cool idea. I developed the notion by myself a long time ago, but some of the stuff I saw in my early days at FF.netencouraged that thought. So, here's some I've got in mind:

"Teen Titans: The Prince of Shadows"(possible future chapters): Godsmack- "Serenity", Breaking Benjamin- "So Cold", Demon Hunter- "The Gauntlet", Dead Poetic- "Dimmer Light", Project 86 feat. Holland Greco of The Peak Show- "Bottom Feeder", Project 86- "Oblivion", Project 86- "Star", Demon Hunter- "My Heartstrings Come Undone", Dead Poetic- "A Green Desire", Dakona- "Untouchable"

Yu-Yu Hakusho; Dead Poetic- "Vanus Empty"

I also want to doa Bible-based fiction to the tune of Norma Jean's "It Was As If The Dead Man Stood Upon The Air". It's tentatively titled "Rewind (The Repentance of Judas)". It's an interesting concept I've been playing around with.

Cancelled Projects:

"Teen Titans: The Hero Exchange"
-"Phantasy Star Online: Where The Sun Never Dies"

If you've read all the way through this, then you're my hero for the day, even though there's no way I'd know who you are. I'm quite amazed you've withstood my rantings all this time. Maybe you just scrolled down to see what was at the end...

...well then, you bum, get your eyes back up and read from the beginning!

Now, if you gave it an honest attempt and gave up, then that's fine. Go about your business, and do not fear the reaper.

It's gonna get harder and harder, so do read this while you can.

I leave you with these three messages:
1. I'd suggest you get your vision checked now. I think I've beaten Tolkien at this whole "write a lot" business.
2. Know Jesus. I do, and I know I could be doing far worse if I didn't. It's not something hard. He cares when nobody else does. All you have to do is believe. Simple as that.
3. Don't commit suicide. Suicide kills.

Have a slightly-less-negative day, and God bless.
Werrwulf
