Author has written 1 story for RWBY.

If y'all want to talk about anything. Like story reviews, potential future stories, or even the weather feel free to PM me. I love talking to people.


This is the edited version of my profile page. After my story started gaining ground, I eventually realized that I need more than just a lazy pun for my profile description. Kudos to those who saw the lazy pun, and who remember it, because I've almost forgotten it.

I'm guessing if you came here, you wanna learn something about me, and while I'm partially willing to give information away, I'm at the same time not that willing, so I'll give some information, you can fill in the rest, and prefferably imagine me as some pseudo-godlike being of infinite humor and imagination.

Name: Three words.

Age: A number

Sex: Yes, please.

Nationality: Mars.

Party: Pizza


Now For Some Actual Information

1. I live in Texas. Yeehaw.

2. I'm a HighSchool student, where and what age I'll leave for you.

3. I've been on FanFiction more than you think, it was only recently, did I finally decide to create a profile For a while now. I've just been on and off on my browsing.

4. By definition, I'm not a nerd. However, most of my friends call me one, so meh, believe what you want.

5. I'm Asian. Not sure what you'd do with this information, but knock yourself out, you have my permission to imagine an Asian person eating rice with chopsticks while wearing glasses with squinty eyes beneath them with heavily accented English.

6. Some of my Favorite Games: Rainbow Six Siege (PC), Divinity Original Sin 2 (For the love of god play this), Mass Effect 2 & 3 (Haven't finished Andromeda yet), Bloodborne, The Witcher 3, For Honor (Ubisoft is garbage, but the game is fun), Fallout New Vegas, Dark Souls 1 & 3, and... Pong.

6.1 Some of my Favorite Movies: The Martian (Also good in book form), Sicario, and 28 Days Later. (I don't watch many movies)

6.2 Some of my Favorite TV Shows/Series/Animes: Game of Thrones, RWBY, Deadman Wonderland (Seriously, you should watch this, it's short and quite good.)

7. I'm single. Ladies. (I think you can assume my gender from this comment)

8. I have a huge procrastination problem.

9. Yes, my uploading is extremely sporadic, and while I would like to be able to upload more, I can't exactly promise anything.

10. I like to say how humble I am, by screaming it from the trees and to the people.

11. I don't claim to be a good writer, as much as I would like to think I am. There are plenty of better writers than me, all I ask is for advice on ways to improve my writing.


My Advice On How To Write A Complex Character

Start with backstory, I generally find that this allows you to build a very connected character as you try to match their personality and looks to what happened to them. Imagine their family, how they grew up, the people around them, the influences on their childhood, what they weren't able to experience, and how they grew out of childhood. As they move into adulthood how do they change, what is their ultimate goal for life, what bad happens to them, what incites them into the story. Now for the story imagine a plot just for this single character, with its own sub characters in this sub plot. Make it as interesting as possible, the most interesting story point you can think of for this character.

Now you got this extremely interest subplot? Well this happened before your character was introduced in your story. So when the story starts they are in the middle or just past this event.

Now for an explanation on what I mean

I generally find that for a lot of characters that I've created and seen other people create, it lacks real substance. Not that it isn't filled with information but the backstory exists for a backstory to exist. A lot of times in stories I find a character like this: Here is John Smith, he was born in a small outskirt town from a father who was in the military and a mother who loves him dearly. He has a younger brother/sister who looks up to him, and as such always had aspirations of saving the world. As such he helped his father around and as such his father taught him how to fight. As he reaches adulthood he leaves the small confines of his village to go save the world.

I know most characters don't fit that exact description, but I think you get the idea. It works, but just for the sake of it existing. Now imagine this. John Smith leaves his village to go save the world, finding it harder than he imagined he quickly heads to the nearest city to help around. He quickly finds that there are 3 vying underground factions, and sets off on a mission to stop all 3. While it is hard at first, he slowly starts gaining ground and even forms a group himself, as he starts to pose a threat to the local underground factions and starts gaining a civilian following. However, one of his closest friends betrays him and a bomb goes off in his headquarter, severely injuring John Smith and causing him to lose his right arm and get severe burns on the right side of his body. After this he vows with murderous intent to destroy all the underground factions and to find and kill his previous friend.

Imagine him as a side character, with your main character visiting the city and finding John Smith, imagine learning of that backstory or something along those lines instead of 'John Smith was born in small village x and wants to join the main character to save the world'. It adds a lot more motivation for the character, and makes it a lot more interesting to travel with the character.

I'm not saying this is a perfect way, but I've found it works rather well and I always love chatting if you think there's something wrong about this.


UPDATE ON POTENTIAL NEW STORIES: Short answer is maybe.

While I do want to write another story I know myself well enough to know that if I were to write one, first I'd either get tired of it in due time and stop writing it. Second would start writing the second story more and forget about my first story. Third get tired of writing due to the idea of having to upload both stories consistently. Or fourth, actually write both stories.

The problem here is that I know the last option most likely won't happen. I'm not that good of a human being to actually do that. The problem is that I actually want to write other stories, yet I know if I were to do so I would easily fall into one of the pitfalls I listed. That and also the fact I know I can't live up to the expectations of a story I have in my mind, so yeah.

So for the time being just my single story, maybe later I'll get the confidence to write another story because dear god I want to.


Time And Time Again reviews
Life was happy. Key word: Was. As life for me was short-lived, that is until I was given a second chance at life. Now I am trapped in the harsh world of Remnant, a world full of feuding gods, the Grimm, and an interdimensional war. Sounds wonderful. Yet... in the end, a single pawn, unknown to the enemy, might be enough to change the world. (SI-OC.)
