Rawrz, I am the Sonasaurus, administrator and long-time user of Halo Fanon (and other wikis besides). Thank you for taking the time to visit my userpage! Leave me a message on my talk page if you have questions, and I'll most likely respond within a day.

About Me
"Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry."

- James 1:19

Writing
I'm an 18-year old Asian male, I like writing fanons based on stories I find interesting, which is why I came here. I've been active here for over 4 years. I prefer to write stories in series, as well as collaborate with others in writing with an expanded universe. I don't like it when new users take feedback too personally, especially if they asked for others to give feedback, although I'm usually nice in the comments I leave. To be honest, some articles would make me laugh, but I would still try to help out and give pointers to the authors for improvement, because I believe that's the only way this wiki won't crash and burn in a few years if all the potentially good users leave.

Personalities
No, I don't have alter egos; there is a difference between the two. In real life, I'm always aware of who I am and what I'm doing, and I certainly do not have split personality disorder. But while I'm online, that's sometimes a different case; I'm using the term "personalities" for lack of a better one. I suppose the right words to use are "personality compartmentalizations"; for me, I have noted at least three most distinct states of mind. After several years of observation, I've come to the conclusion that they do emerge and disappear without my being aware of it, at that there are several coincidences to these "transitions" that cannot be explained by simply changes in emotion. So no, I'm not making this up; I'm listing this out if the way I act is inconsistent in similar or identical situations.
 * "Evan" is my real-life self. I usually observe more than I talk, and notice things people don't expect me to. I'm a bit shy and don't talk to other people if I don't need to; however, if someone does take the time to get to know me, I become a lot more open. I'm a bit self-conscious about some of my hobbies, including the time I spend on Halo Fanon. I tend to become resentful if people judge me based on these things and make assumptions that are usually incorrect. I don't become angry easily, but I can become annoyed at trivial things. The gap between the two emotions is pretty wide, with irritation leaning closer to my "neutral" state. You'll rarely see me on the wiki or on the IRC, so you probably don't know that much about what I'm really like.
 * "Aeolus" is my fair personality. I don't know why I picked this name, except that I used to use it a lot; there is no real connection between myself and the Greek god of wind. I'm more or less in an agreeable mood when I'm in this state of mind, although the opportunities to be so become less and less with time. I'm generally sympathetic towards individuals that are persecuted by a group of others, even if I know that he/she is in the wrong. I like to resolve problems between two individuals by acting in a lenient manner and helping them reach an understanding. I don't have a wide range of emotions, since I try to distance myself from them somewhat to keep my mind clear; at the same time, I make sure I do not become indifferent should there be a problem. I don't mind if you call me Evan or even Sona, since I accept that they're both part of me.
 * "Sona" is my darker personality, and the closest psychological existence I have to an alter ego. Usually the stress of my real life is transferred to me, and I try not to let it show. I'm mostly detached from emotions when I'm not talking to anyone, but I can also become contemptuous of others at times. Aeolus sometimes has to keep me in check to remind myself not to go over the edge. However, I never become angry; it is Evan who does, albeit very rarely. I also have a sense of humour that is not present in my other personas. I don't like being referred to as Evan, as it reminds me of traits in my real self that I'm not altogether fond of. Surprisingly, I'm also the most open out of the three, as I was confident in my own opinion and I couldn't care less what others thought about me. I'm willing to become friends with anyone that does too, and I rarely have long-term goals.

Halo and Gaming


I'm not much of a gamer, but I have played all the Halo games that were released, as well as read all the Halo novels that came out. I haven't read all the graphic novels or other miscellaneous Halo wha-cha-ma-callits like Evolutions, but a fairly long period of service on Halopedia (under a different username) has given me all the information I need. The only Halo thing I (sometimes) take issue with is material created by 343 Industries, but that's because it's of my belief (as well as those of many others) that they show little to no respect for Bungie's existing canon, and the universe they spent so long carefully putting together.

Like I said, I don't play video games as intensely as a lot of the other users on this site, but I still play stuff like Team Fortress 2, Guitar Hero, and Grand Theft Auto.



Religion
"Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned, forgive, and ye shall be forgiven."

- Luke 6:37

Yes, I am Christian, and yes, I am aware that this site is made up of mostly Atheists. No, I don't have problems with people who are Atheist. To be frank, I'm not die-hard religious. I don't have a point-blank, absolute need to disregard scientific evidence and become overly obsessive about God and the Bible, because I don't think science and religion are complete polar opposites. And if you happen to disagree with my views, I'm fine with that too, because I believe in the freedom of opinion. You can bash religion, call me deluded, laugh at me all you want, because I personally believe that it's not in my power, or right, to convince you otherwise.

Reasons I hate 343 Industries
Reason #1: 343 Industries takes or will take just about everything that isn't broken about Halo and "fix" it. Reason #2: 343 Industries creates so many discrepancies, some of which I'm not even sure how they pull off, that I'm beginning to feel convinced they go out of their way to make them. Reason #4: 343 Industries has a mediocre amount of knowledge on the Halo universe, usually taking a brief glance at the subject at hand and assuming the rest. Reason #5: 343 Industries either does not do enough research, or is unable to comprehend the canon that's presented to them. Reason #11: 343 Industries gives a big "fuck you" to Sangheili anatomy by giving hair to females. Reason #14: Fred is shown with brown hair in the Package, when he was previously said to have black hair with silver lining. Reason #15: 343 Industries has Spartans getting killed off like it's nothing in the Package, once again creating an inconsistency by having more SPARTAN-IIs die than originally stated. Reason #21: Daisy-023 gets a shit ton of screen time and character development, only to die in the most unrealistic fashion possible and without any good reason. Reason #192: The animation in the Halo: Anniversary Edition terminals are absolutely abysmal, calling back to the standards of the original Halo: Combat Evolved in 2001, with up-and-down jaw movement and all. Reason #197: Captain Keyes and Sergeant Johnson look stupid in Halo: Anniversary Edition. Reason #199: Spartans apparently have their own military branch now. Cue facedesking. Reason #201: John's codpiece is missing in Halo 4. This is either a continuity error or a really stupid plot point on 343 Industries' part, so I need no further elaboration. Reason #244: The Halo 4 Pelican is designed unrealistically for numerous reasons (see epiquotes). Reason #312: There are mechs in Halo 4. If you're a respectable technology expert, I don't even have to explain this one. Reason #378: Invasion is no longer a gametype in Halo 4. Reason #379: Firefight is no longer a gametype in Halo 4. Reason #392: John-117 was a Petty Officer in 2525 and a Chief Petty Officer in 2535. Apparently the writers of Forward Unto Dawn decided it was smart to make him a Master Chief Petty Officer in 2526, creating yet another discrepancy that could have been easily avoided with some research and just a little common sense. Reason #410: Stacker's first name is now officially "Marcus", because fuck Pete Stacker apparently.

Videos = My first two HMVs ever made, please check them out if you're interested. I've had some experiences with making AMVs, so this is just a new direction for me. I might make more in the future, when I have time and I feel like it. If you like these ones, let me know, and I'll see if I can take any requests you have. Also, two of my Red vs Blue music videos, which I have been rather fond of making ever since CGI was added to the series.
