Rawrz, I am Sona 'Demal, 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 a 17-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 almost 3 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.

"Alter Egos"
No, I don't really have alter egos. 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 "alter ego" for lack of a better one. I suppose the right words to use are "state of mind"; for me, I have noted at least three. 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 alter ego. 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.
 * "Sona" is my darker 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 alter egos. 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 don't like is Halo Legends, but that's just because they seem to hold no regard of existing canon and take their so-called "artistic license" way over the limit.

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 Gears of War, Call of Duty, 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.

Alignment Test
Lawful Good Human Paladin (1st Level)

Ability Scores: Strength ————— ██████ 12 Dexterity ———— ██████ 12 Constitution — ███████ 14 Intelligence — ██████▌ 13 Wisdom ——————— ████████▌ 17 Charisma ————— █████▌ 11

Alignment: Lawful Good A lawful good character acts as a good person is expected or required to act. He combines a commitment to oppose evil with the discipline to fight relentlessly. He tells the truth, keeps his word, helps those in need, and speaks out against injustice. A lawful good character hates to see the guilty go unpunished. Lawful good is the best alignment you can be because it combines honour and compassion. However, lawful good can be a dangerous alignment because it restricts freedom and criminalizes self-interest.

Race: Human Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Class: Paladin Paladins take their adventures seriously, and even a mundane mission is, in the heart of the paladin, a personal test an opportunity to demonstrate bravery, to learn tactics, and to find ways to do good. Divine power protects these warriors of virtue, warding off harm, protecting from disease, healing, and guarding against fear. The paladin can also direct this power to help others, healing wounds or curing diseases, and also use it to destroy evil. Experienced paladins can smite evil foes and turn away undead. A paladin's Wisdom score should be high, as this determines the maximum spell level that they can cast. Many of the paladin's special abilities also benefit from a high Charisma score.
