This is not about emotional drama or video games. It's not about school or work. It's simply about me. There is no moral to the story, no deep meaning behind it all that I'm trying to explain. It is just thoughts, transcribed with as much (or as little) delicacy as I care to muster.

I always enjoy learning about my childhood, what I was like before times when I can remember. Sometimes, they fill in the gaps of my memory, and other times they refresh it, turning on a dim light in a dark room in the recess of my mind. There are some things I remember. I was a very sensitive child, and I was very precocious.

I remember living a set of apartments here in Eugene, years and years ago. Some of you will remember me pointing them out to you. Over on Willamette, by the Wendy's, there are some apartments there the street-side has a wall of balconies. I recall seeing those balconies through the window of the backseat of a car. I remember thinking that it was where I lived, though if you asked, I couldn't tell you the color of the car I was in or what kind of stuff was in the apartment in question. I simply have the image in my mind.

I remember grade school. I was the manager of the student store at Meadowlark, along with my friend Cassie. Cassie and I were close there for a while, and though we are still in touch we have wandered. but back then, we were a match. I just pretended that I thought she had cooties at the time. Silly kids. I remember her imagination. More vivid at that time than any I can recall to date. I also remember Jake, though he is a constant. He is like a brother, my other hand, my reflection in times of need.

I also remember how different I felt from the other kids. Though, of course, don't we all feel different? I remember that when other kids would color or play games or read whatever age-oriented stuff we had on hand, I would be the one reading about the hole in the ozone layer and 'oh no, we're in trouble!'. I remember wanting so much to do well in school. We had an imaginative writing assignment, only a few pages long. Mine was..if I recall, about seven and a half. The teacher read it aloud to the class. It was about an older, wise scientist and his young assistant. They have an adventure in a volcano, then go back to the lab and realize that their research could mean that we can save lives by predicting eruptions. A jealous co-worker kidnapped the scientist, dragging her into a large freezer unit, where the hero followed and saved her. A lot of plot for less then a dozen pages.

I also remember having a mini breakdown in the middle of class because on our weekly math challenge question, I got it wrong, and I was so proud of my answer. I had interpreted the question in a different way than the rest of the class, so my answer was still valid, but different, because of subjective wording.

Even before school, though, I was extremely precocious, ahead of my time. I was writing before I was reading, actually. When I was about three and a half years old, I was sitting at the table with my mom and grandma, who were, as was common, playing Rummy. They had a piece of paper to keep score, so I took a piece of paper and scribbled on it. Mostly they were just scribbles, nothing special. Then at one point, I drew a little swirly scribble, labeled it with the word "mom", and said "I made this for you, here ya go." and gave it to my mom. I wasn't even reading at the time, and it stunned my mom at the time.

Before I ever entered kindergarden, I was reading, writing, and doing basic math. One day I was seeing my pediatrician, and I was left alone for a long time in the room with my mom. I took some crayons and got up on the bed. If you've been to a doctor's office lately, you know they have a sheet of paper across the bed that you lie on. at 5 years old, I took my crayons and drew on this piece of paper. First, I did my addition tables. 1 + 1 = 2, 2 + 1 = 3, until I got to 10 + 10 = 100. Then I wrote the alphabet out. Then I wrote the names of colors according to the color of the crayon I was holding. So writing out the word "red" with the red crayon. My doctor came back, and saw the writing. "Oh, did he write that?" she asked my mom.

"yes, he did."

"Wait. Really? You mean you didn't help him, he wrote all that?"

"Yep."

According to my mom, as I don't have a vivid memory of the incident, the doctor was stunned into silence for a few moments. Then with a casual, "Well, I guess I won't have to check his mental health!" she conducted the check-up.

When I finally did get into school, I always loved learning and helping. During day-ca... ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/13760222/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/13760222/ Mon, 16 Jul 2007 17:36:39 PDT
Hone

Name: Hone [pronounced Ho-nay]
Gender: Male
Age: approx 500
Race: Demon
Height: Varies [see powers] but on average; 6'0
Hair color: Almost black, with blue highlights
Eye color: silver

Weapons: No 'normal' weapons [see powers]

Powers: Hone is a unique demon. Where as most of his kind have no magic abilities, but they can shapeshift into animals, and they have horns or hooves, Hone's abilities seem to have faded some of these ideas. Instead of shape shifting into an animal and having horns or something, Hone is actually able to shape shift his bones themselves. Horns, after all, are bones. So in a sort of bastardized version of the original Vaknar demons, Hone can, at will, control the shape, density, structure, and position of his bones, even passing them through his skin, creating weapons with them, or creating a type of durable exo skeleton by forming thick plates of bone directly under the skin. He can, basically, instantly regenerate and morph his bones. He can make bone-blade weapons and such through this power, as well as distort this joints, and other physical feats.

Strength: Acrobatic feats, instant shaping and regeneration of bones, and can pass these bones through skin without harm.

Weakness: Hone is prone to mental attacks, unable to properly defend himself, and they usually drive him a little crazy

History- Hone was born in secret, and hidden in a human village in the hopes that his powers would be repressed, undiscovered. However, he was picked on as a child because he was different. Eventually his powers were unleashed, and he murdered five teenagers that were bullying him. Scared and frightened, he was captured, then tortured to the brink of insanity, and finally burned alive. He survived, however, though his mind has blocked much of his childhood. His memory fragmented, Hone travels with idle blood lust, finding peace only in battle.

Appearence- His skin is dark, not quite black but not far from it either. His hair is a dark blue color, which at first glance appears just as black as his skin until the light hits it, and then you see the lighter blue highlights. He has tattoos all over his body. Covering his lithe, agile body are silver tattoos, lines that appear to be marking the position of the bones in his body. While not the exact shape, the thin lines trace over where his skeleton would appear.



Alvara Okami

Name:Alvara Okami
Age: 24
Race: Chi Shaper (see below)
Category:
Choose from: Warrior
Sex: Female
Appearance:Tall and slender, Alvara is fleet footed. She has long black hair and dark green eyes. She is of oriental descent, with pale skin and bright features. She often wears her black hair in a ponytail, with two locks framing her long, thin face. Straightened and kept down, her hair reaches above her lower back and below her shoulder blades. She was built more for fast reflexes and flexible acrobatics rather than brute strength. The lack of any distinguishing marks, such as scars or tattoos, betrays her lack of real experience with life threatening situations or honorable battles. A dark blue and black hakama, traditional oriental attire. This is her typical attire when she has the time to look formal or when she knows she is going to be in a battle. When traveling she wears a more rugged set of light leathers for long distance traveling over mountains and forests.

Weaponry:
Nemusama; her father's blade. It is an enchanted katana, which will cut through any non living material, slicing through steel and armor like a red hot rod in the snow. Also, the blade is virtually unbreakable by any normal means, and the blade has a gap in the middle, a kind of oval hole in the steel. However, it cannot cut living flesh of any kind, unless it is to commit an honorable suicide by the sword's wielder.
Tsume: The only kind of lethal weapon she has in her arsenal is a long, thin blade. It is hidden in Nemusama's hilt, the butt of the hilt fitting into her palm, and the razor thin blade extending the length of it. Unlike Nemusama, which could cut only non-living material, this small dagger, named Tsume, can pierce into any living being. If she presses the blade all the way in, up to the round piece of hilt that served as its handle, the enchantments on the blade would almost guarantee that the victim would be killed.
Alvara has a pouch of small, round orbs that, when thrown against a hard surface, have various effects. There are smoke orbs that release a thick concealing smoke. Flash orbs, that blind those in the immediate area, and blast orbs, that create a small sonic boom, a tiny explosion of sound.


Weakness: Arrogant and headstrong, Alvara is ov... ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/13362251/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/13362251/ Fri, 15 Jun 2007 22:10:53 PDT Rules

Room -> [link]

1: No character killing; if you feel a character should die, you must get permission from that player. However, never ask to kill another player's character, unless you are willing to risk your's from dying. This means that: if you kill another player's character, with their consent, you are then giving equal permission for your own character to be killed.

To note: Characters do not just drop dead. In order for a character to be killed, they have to fall in battle, be poisoned, eaten, etc. So even if you give permission for your character to be killed, it is not a promise the character will be easy to kill.

2: Use Brackets when not rping ) } ] This is known as "Out of Character" or OOC talk

3: no god moding. What is God moding? Any time you use an attack, ability, or other action that a) controls another character's actions b) harms them in a way they cannot defend against c) instant death or unblockable attacks. Any excessive abuse of these rules will result in a single warning kick, then a ban.

For plot purposes, Dust may interfere with the roleplay, and is allowed to god mode. Because I am all powerful

4: No cybering. Romance is allowed, but keep it pg-13, and if its getting steamy, take it somewhere else.

5: No fighting or arguing with other players outside of the rp. You can debate, and have heated discussions, but there will be NO flaming, put downs, racism/sexism/other-isms, of ANY kind. One verbal warning, then a ban, not a kick. I do not allow disrespect in here.

6: No spamming or advertising

7: Obey your higher ups (Higher ups = Dust or Watchers)

8: Do not disrespect people of lower rank

9: Do not harass a specific person, or target anyone for any kind of teasing. This is similar to rule 5

10: No thumbnail spamming, and keep even simple thumb posts to an ABSOLUTE minimum

11: Don't come in here to whine or cry about your personal problems. If you know people, you can chat about your day, but if all I hear is complaints and no rping, you're gone.

12: I do not accept one line character posting. Put some thought into it. I wont accept 'doesnt remember' or other crap as a bio. If you cant make a decent character, you wont be accepted!

13: If any of the high ups give you a command, do it without backtalk.



Get it? Got it? Good.

Character Posting:

Description: [link]

you MUST read the description^ before posting, unless you are familiar with the Dark Materials books. This is not a free for all fantasy; no vampires, no DBZ or other anime characters. Further, your character is not the center of attention in the world, unless I or a high power chooses your character to be such.

You may create a human and daemon pair, or if you would like, you may co-op with someone else, one of you taking the human, the other the daemon.

When posting a daemon, if that daemon has settled on a form, they need to reflect the human's nature or character. If your character is cowardly, don't make his or her daemon a lion. I don't care how much you want a badass dragon, if you're human character is a poodle in spirit, so too should their daemon be.

Panserbjorne, Witches, and other non-human/daemon characters have to be approved by me, and ONLY if you are an experienced rper, or demonstrate skill and respect in the room.

All character posts must be posted in THIS journal, with the following information:

Name: (Of both human and daemon, if applicable)
Age:
Gender: (Of both human and daemon, if applicable; keep in mind daemon are 99% of the time opposite sex of human, but if you want to come up with a creative cause or effect, they may be the same)
Race:
Physical Description:
Personality:
Possessions: (This includes weaponry and equipment)
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
(strength and weaknesses may be physical, such as being particularly strong or fast, BUT there must be an explanation [working out to be strong, running from the police to be fast, etc] Or they can be social strengths and weaknesses, such as gullible, or easily tricked)
History:

If there is a higher up, you may NOT rp until your character is approved. If there is no one to approve your char, you may engage in some limited rp.

Character Journal: [link]

The trilogy takes place across a multiverse, moving between many alternate worlds. In The Golden Compass, the story takes place in a world with some similarities to our own; its society seems to resemble the 19th century with Victorian era dress style and steampunk technology level. It could also be speculated that in this world The Reformation never took place. The church (referred to as the "Magisterium") controls all of the western world (and probably the entire planet). The universe of has interesting technology; at a glance, it appears to be considerably behind our own world, devoid of conveniences such as cars, but in many fields it is equal or superior to ours.

The world of His Dark Materials has many differences from our own.

Dust:

Dust is a form of dark matter (as we call it in our world), an elementary particle that is of fundamental importance to the novels. Dust is invisible to the human eye and can not be seen without the use of special instruments such as the The Amber Spyglass or a special film. However, while humans cannot see dust without the use of outside devices, creatures such as the mulefa are able to see dust with their own eyes.

Unlike ordinary particles, Dust is conscious. It falls from the sky and is attracted to people (especially adults) and objects made by people. This makes it of great interest to the Church, which believes that it may be the physical manifestation of Original Sin. We later learn that Dust actually confers consciousness, knowledge and wisdom. This allows creatures who have the ability to see dust to identify other sentient and intelligent creatures.

It is Dust that provides the answers given by the alethiometer.

Dust has various different names among the various different worlds within the trilogy. Dust was previously known (in Lyra Belacqua's universe) as Rusakov particles after their discoverer, Boris Mikhailovitch Rusakov. It is known also as Shadows in our world (Pullman relates Dust to Dark Matter).

Angels, including The Authority, are formed when Dust condenses.


Daemons:

Daemons are animals that exist externally from the body, and they are the manifestation of the human soul. Daemon and human are powerfully connected. They can, for instance, talk to one another mentally, and can even feel each other's joy, or pain. An average human's daemon cannot stray more than a couple meters from its human. Before puberty, a human's daemon can change form at will into any animal the child knows of, though of limited size and strength. Once they hit that age, the daemon then settles on a shape, assuming the form of a single animal for life, usually reflecting the nature of the human.

The single biggest taboo in all of society is the touching of another person's daemon. Daemon may interact with one another, even fight or settle quarrels, but no human ever touches someone else's daemon. Daemon do not usually talk to other humans than their own, though it is not forbidden, just uncommon.

If a human dies, their daemon fades away, and if a daemon dies, their human dies as well. This is the linked fate between human and daemon.

A daemon's gender is almost always the opposite of the human.

Note: The only exception to these above rules is intercision, or cutting away of a human's daemon. This is a fate worse than death for humans in this world, as you are cutting their very soul in two. Almost always, the human becomes a shadow of their former self, weak and pitiful, a disgust to the rest of the human race, and almost always die soon after.


->[link]

panserbjørne:

The panserbjørne are large polar bears who almost always wear their robust armour, a practically indestructible suit of armor made from sky metal. They have opposable thumbs on their front paws. Despite their large digits and immense strength they have remarkable dexterity. This, together with an innate sense of metallurgy, makes them exceptional metalsmiths, and they are capable of creating and repairing metal items far beyond the capabilities of human smiths. They are highly intelligent and, whilst they mainly appear to speak English, have been shown to speak in a number of indigenous languages.

They are governed by a king who is usually determined by bloodline,... ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/11819555/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/11819555/ Wed, 14 Feb 2007 17:42:05 PST
However, what about the rest of us? Those of us who, even if we are in a relationship, can't be with our loved one. What do we celebrate? What about those of us who are single, perhaps always have been, or maybe just recently.

Even though I am one of those who have their loved one with them this day, this is the first year it's been so, and I know from before that things aren't always cheery when all you see are love struck couples.

Yet we must remember that there is more to the spirit of Valentine's Day that just love in relationships. I mean, if we are celebrating love, why does it have to be so narrowly considered?

What about our friends? Friends that have been with us through the thick and thin, maybe for a short while, maybe all our lives. I know I have many people that mean a lot to me, who I love. Why shouldn't we celebrate this?

Family, perhaps the most, and at the same time least, pure love. We should celebrate our family, remember those who we love and hold close to us.

So this Valentine's Day, tell someone you love them. Your mother, your father. Brothers, sisters. Pets. Friends who will never truly know how much you appreciate them.

So what do I think Valentine's Day should be? Well, to quote:

"Always remember, life is not how many breaths you take, it's how many moments take your breath away."

This Valentine's Day, remember love of all kinds.

Pass it on.

Just gonna say that I'll be gone as of tomorrow morning. I'll be gone until Monday night, so chances are you won't find me until Tuesday. but probably not then since I have school the next day, so it may be later that weekend unless you see me at school. Except I have me b-day party that weekend. So my dA-only friends who won't see me at school may not see me around very much for a little while until things get into a routine again.

A few of you here are going to KumoriCon, and I am very sad to say that I will not, as previously thought, be joining you. I totally spaced on the fact that it takes place during labor day weekend, which has ALWAYS been a family-getaway weekend. I'll miss you guys a lot, but I hope you all have a blast at the Con and don't worry about me. I won't sleep well at night if y'all are talkin' about how I'm not there so go have some fun ^_^

Anyway, just lettin' yall know I'll be gone for a bit. Byez

Hey, guess what I got?

Yep yep, I now have Maya 7, an awesome 3D modeling and rendering program. So, what was I yelling about the ideas for?

I dunno what to do ._.

I started modeling some stuff, and I might post that in a few days. But I wanted to make like..a mascot character. Ya know, that unique character that every artist has, that's theirs, that shows up in comics and comissions and such. So if y'all have any ideas of a 'mascot' character, whether it be names, (teh KouGaNatoR), art styles (A chibi kouga!), or things that you think would be good to have that represents me, (A wolf-boy chibi!)

Yeah yeah, you all got those things called "lives" (Where do you get those? I should get me one o' those sumtime.) I'm just giving y'all and update on Kouga. Well, I got moved. From Friday afternoon to Sunday night I was packing, lifting, heaving, moving, carrying, and occasionally eating and sleeping. No phone. No internet. No games....It was a very depressing weekend .__.

So..moved. Got that situated. No internet (cept here at school) but I got games and phone now. Room is a bit bigger, so that's cool. I'll be putting stuff up and around my room over the next few weeks. Clothes would be nice..put some cool posters up..I need like...a really awesome poster or wall scroll or something thats like..Wolf's Rain. Wolf's Rain is good. and Metal Gear Solid..so I'll be decorating my room for a while. (!) I need to find like..some cool frames and shtuff so I can put up the pictures drawn, colored, made and/or signed by some of the coolest people in the world (Y'all know who you are) that'll definitely make it a thousand times better. the house is nice..but its kinda isolated so now school is my life Oo cuz I'm teh all alone in my new house. With any luck that'll give me some time to make more deviations and cool stuff.

Speaking of which, my Advanced Web Design class is freakin' awesome. I just started polishing a Logo design. I was going to just print out my Kouga Kreations thing but then I realized just how mediocre it is (cept Skyway's logo he made me, that kicks ass. but that's not mine, so I can't use it..) so now I'm going with..

OKAMI STUDIOS

>>;

<<

er, yeah. So maybe I'll post that just for kicks. For all my awesomely artistic friends and pals who have posted deviations and I haven't had time to favorite, comment, (or, well, look at) your deviations, I apologize. I'll try to check some of that stuff out.

Also, reminder that I do reply to emails. "Well then why don't YOU emails US, kouga?!" well because I have 43 people that are DevWatch-ing me, so trying to keep in contact and emailing everyone is a tad on the difficult side. So if ya feel like hearing from kouga, you'll have to email me and I'll reply next school day (if ya don't have it, teh email is teh.kouga@gmail.com)

Ok, so I'm rambling as usual. If you've made it this far through the journal, than congrats!

You've officially ran out of things to do..

Well, till next time folks, this is Kouga, signing off. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/8003867/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/8003867/ Sat, 25 Feb 2006 22:28:37 PST

First, things are going good. I finally kicked myself out of a downward spiral I was in (Thanks in great part to a good listener.) and now I'm feeling a hundred times better. Come two weeks from tomorow and with a bit of luck I'll be even better than I am now.

On the other hand, disaster strikes. This is mostly important to all my RPer friends out there, but we may not have internet for a while. I will still be able to check messages, comment, etc through my school's computers, but uploading, Rping, and weekend contact will be null for a while. Our internet bill, which was cheap through a comcast special deal, is gonna skyrocket next month, and we're moving here in March anyway, so why pay a truck load of money for only on month? Once we move it could be a long time until we get anything beyond DialUp. You see, the house is not wired for Cable internet. Or DSL. Only DialUp. and there are no wireless providers that I can find that provide coverage there. It's about 10 miles outside the big city here (well, as big as you can get in this half of the state) and neither ClearWire nor Verizon Wireless offer wireless internet out here. If you guys know of any other good, decently priced, fast and reliable high speed wireless internet service providers, TELL ME and I love you long time.

So, visits may be erratic. As far as any future art..not seeing a whole lot in the future. I've come through some recent breakthroughs in my writing so if I can past the last two issues that will be in full swing. My bryce stuff has kinda died anyway..maybe I'll scrunge up one or two deviations as a farewell for a while. I made what I thought was a really awesome Shuriken-ish thingy...but the more I look at it, the crappier it appears. and I dont have anything to go with it..

So, any other news? Not really. I've been addicted to a Thrice song- "Image of the Invisible" so yeah, its pretty awesome. google it with vidnet.com and you should be able to find the video for it, which absolutely rox!

SO, I will still respond to emails and journals, comment on art, all that jazz but it won't be as frequent as it is currently. Farewell my fellow Deviants.

Until we meet again

Anyone that has the time, please review some of my latest deviations and comment anything you can think of that could improve it, or what is good about it to know for the future, stuff like that. Especially if anyone knows how to make sure no quality is lost during the transfer into DeviantArt, I think some of my deviations are slightly grainy, but I'm not sure if that's because of DevArt or my own error. Anyway...Let the posting begin!

Watsup? How was your holidays? Mine rocked. I got some awesome gifts (the best ones from awesome friends. You know who you are; thanks again) and spent some time with some awesome family, and it was...well, awesome.

The most awesome part?

!!!!

Yeah. I got a new computer. I did not say *we* got a new computer, its not for the family. *I* got a new computer. its mine. me. I. All mine, I am the admin, the head account of my computer. its mine.

This may not seem like much to those of you that have your own computer, but, it is...its a custom built computer, I don't know all the spechs, I'm no computer whiz. BUT it has a pretty good video card, a good gb of RAM, etc etc. Well, I have started using Bryce 5.5, I don't have internet so I can't post anything yet (im currently on my dads computer) but once I get home (im out of state for the holidays) Im going to plug it in and get some internet running. So, hopefully in a week you will be seeing some really awesome Bryce deviations, most...hmm..well, all, of them are abstracts, but they are damn cool abstracts. I think I'll use one of them as a backdrop for an ID or something...

In the meantime, I'm trying to come up with some kind of logo and signature or symbol or something; something like I can put in the corner of my artwork, something that is strictly ME. If any of you have seen my avatar before Yellow Day, where it was like..wolf-ish, I was thinking maybe something like that if its just a symbol. maybe something with Kouga or my initials (J.S.N-F) or..something. I dunno. Anyway, hope yall had a great holiday, and expect to see a truckload of uploads here in a week or two. My computer is already getting one hell of a workout with hour plus renders

A world was stunned. On December 26 of 2004, an undersea earthquake caused a tsunami that swept across Indonesia, and killed 280,000 people, carving out its place as one of modern times’ most deadly natural disasters. These types of situations, these disasters, tragedies of catastrophic size, is something bigger than most people can imagine. The sheer amount of torment and pain that hundreds of thousands of people went through, even (maybe especially) the survivors, the families, the people that watched as their homes were swept away like leaves in a strong wind.
Now jump forward only twelve months. One year later, I turn on my television, and what do I see?

America’s Tsunami: Are We Next?

After that stunt, we would deserve it. Talk about bad taste. You don’t just go around and make a movie based on a natural disaster only a year after it happened. It’s just not right. I had to turn my television off right then, I couldn’t stand to watch it any longer.
As if that wasn’t a blow enough, Hurricane Katrina is similarly used so that fat, greedy television producers can make a quick buck off some horribly inappropriate subject for a television show. Category 7: The End of the World .
I have officially lost faith in network television.
It’s only been a couple of MONTHS since Katrina hit New Orleans, sending the United States of America once again into a state of shock. Yet here it is, on my television screen again, in large bold print. How sick do you get?
People have lost their lives. Their homes. Their jobs. Their families because of these disasters, and here we are, watching something we have the balls to call entertainment. It is absolutely….indescribable. Not many things really make my skin crawl, but this has really done it. Even as I write, my upper lip wants to curl back in a snarl of anger at this. Make another reality show. Have another sitcom, anything but toy with the fragile hearts of people who’s lives will never again be the same because of something they ultimately had no control over.
Network television, you have sunk to a new low.

UPDATE:

After speaking with some friends, I realized that with America's Tsunami, since it was a discovery channel event, it is probably more of an informational documentary than an entertainment flick, so I can give them some slack there. but still...sometimes, even the people with good intentions just stacks on to the negatives. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/7100484/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/7100484/ Sun, 20 Nov 2005 20:51:51 PST
Well, I've been doing some sketching. I still need to post those...I'll get to it eventually. Right now, however, I need to let off some steam, and see if anyone that has the patience and good will to read through this all has any ideas...

well, I still have not found anything to make my avatar or DevArt ID. I need something...anything that really shows...me. or a part of me. I dunno. I think that I could eventually draw something through trial and error, its not the drawing im worried about its the idea. I just don't know what I am really about; what kind of things define...me. Also, I have come across some amazingly talented artists, the most recent of which being bleedman just blows me away. I think that I could find something. Something I could do. Something I could draw. I want to draw. I just need to find my niche, my 'area' my 'thing'. I dunno, maybe I'm way off. I feel frustrated and not a little overwhelmed. Well...hmm..

I need food. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/7059231/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/7059231/ Tue, 15 Nov 2005 21:52:20 PST
Yo. uh, im back. I was out of town for a while; a family member decided to fall off a ladder, so i've been laying on a hospital waiting room couch for the last 3 days. stupid things are so bloody uncomfortable.

So I am back home and I will be posting some stuff tomorow. I will be posting them in SCRAPS since ya know, they are scraps. just without the two s's. As in. Crap. They are crap. *silence* ok, the moment's passed.

SO.....yeah. im back. and alive. well, more like zombified. so talk to ya later?


Kouga eats your brains... ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/7037171/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/7037171/ Sun, 13 Nov 2005 15:32:24 PST
Yes, Kouga is still alive. Whatsup? I'm alright. Some crap has happened, hit pretty close to home. Life friends will get a more detailed account later; dev art pals, well your outta luck, im not gonna drown the internet with it.

IN OTHER NEWS: I need a new avatar....and a new signature. >< any ideas for the avatar? Those of you that know my well can surely come up with something that can help to make an avatar or siggy that defines me as Kouga. Anywayz...

I'll be posting some sketches later this week. I took the advice of my good friends and decided to just...draw stuff. good or bad, just draw it, and hope for the best. can't get better if you don't try, right? i've been doing some concept character sketches for an animation idea I had for if I get a new computer for christmas. I want music to go alone to it, dunno if its going to be a "music video" or what yet. However, it will have mechs. lots of them. and shootings. and explosions. Well, maybe. depends on how good I get at 3D modelling and animations any tips for mech drawing? My biggest issues when drawing are angles and maintaing proportions...-.-; ah well, hopefully it will come with practice.

Anyone seen the Linkin Park video; Points of Authority? the cool CG one? Yeah, that's where the inspiration came from; only instead of one group vs another, its one group vs one person. Just one. Uno. Single. Against a small army. Gotta love it

but thats a long ways off. For now, i bid thee well, and hope to see or talk to yall later

Long time no chat. I know, I know, I haven't posted anything, haven't commented, read, fav-ed, or basically done anything else that has to do with DA. This is mainly due to the fact that I HAVE NO INTERNET.

I am currently at school, mooching time off of their computers, to say that when we moved (early sept.) we were GOING to get hi speed cable internet, but seeing as how we are going to re-move again, my parents aren't getting internet.

Crap, gotta go.

Kouga, the ninja and wolf-boy you all know and adore (...) is Missing in Action! Reporters say that there was an incident in which Kouga angered one of his relatives, and somehow ended up getting his computer time severely cut down.

Witnesses at the scene can neither confirm nor deny the reports, and Kouga's reappearance has not yet been scheduled. We will keep you updated, right here, on the Ninja Newsletter.

First off, im beatin' myself over my current art project; an art trade with the one and only I got part of the lineart done. Gotta finish lineart, then i work on coloring. Then i probably realize it sucks and start over >< but who knows.

Ya know what a lotta awesome artist people (see Rimfrost or DarkJak) have that I don't? A little banner thing for their journal. If im gonna be an awesome flash artist, i need a coolio banner for my journals.

Course, they also have cool devart ID's.

And then, they also have awesome ART cuz they are awesome arists.

One step at a time, right?


Tomorow I get to go clothes shopping. YAY!

I don't like clothes shopping. doh!

Maybe I'll call someone and drag them along. Hmm..who do I know that would tag along shopping.

My clan for Call of Duty (a WWII first person shooter game) is falling apart.

My adoring fans. I have returned from what I thought was a week long camping trip. Only...this week was only like 5 days.

So, whats up in the life of teh ninja Kouga? Well, my muscles are freaking sore as hell, what between 5 straight days of being at Lake Shasta, kneeboarding, swimming, and the like, then coming to the campsite in time for a quick dinner and sleeping on the rough, hard, flat, rock riddled ground. not to mention a total lack of sleep most nights cuz I thought I heard a bear outside my tent.

I could have taken him...

but now im back. and I'm having identity issues. I am teh ninja... and I am teh wolf, too. I don't know how well a Ninja Wolf would work.

Recently, a friend of mine was working on a computer virus, and it turned out to be a very ambitious program. I won't bother you with the technical details just yet, but the "uninstall" program for this virus was also a virus, and for those of you who are plagued by pornographic popups, this company has no qualms about sending such ads to 10 year olds in the basis "we didn't ask how old there are, so we can send them anything".

Any of this sound familiar? Porn? Popups? Virus? Spy/Ad Ware? Well, now YOU can fight back.

Mr friend recently broke through some code and discovered the actual COMPANY that is responsible for this program. We left him a voicemail, and today the CEO of this company (Josh Abram) will walk into work and recieve a voicemail message; "seven days, Josh Abram".

So, in seven days, one week, that is Wednesday, August 24th, we need YOUR help. We are going to let Josh in on a little secret.....

You do NOT mess with our computers.

So those of you with artistic abilities that may want to create some anti-spyware art or even some pictures of questionable content that you would like to use to help spam a Spyware creator, start now. Even if you can't draw, if you would just like to support us by raising your voice. I will get his work number for during and after work hours, as well as other information you may use to help us fight back against SpyWare.

So until Day 0 (wed 24th) we need you to spread the word. Go to chatrooms, go to your email address book. send them this journal and the ones I will post up in the next few days. Tell them that they can help fight against Virus's. I will keep you updated. This is not a drill, this is not a joke.

Now is the time to fight. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/6217274/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/6217274/ Sat, 13 Aug 2005 14:50:23 PDT [link]

Novas Rules and Regs:
[link]
credit for this goes to a friend, Destiny Rae Darcblaide.


A History:
Eclipse Kardahn, a Sorrusian [link] created a space pirate group called the Nova's. They quickly grew in fame and glory, as rumors started to spread about them. There were three sides to this group, as seen by the public. One side told that he was a cold hearted killer, a thieving bastard who would not let anything, even the loss of life, stop him. The other said that he followed a noble cause, stealing only from the wicked, and upholding the idea of justice in the galaxy. The third...well, they just said he was a damn good pirate.

However, for some reason or another, Nova broke up. Only a handful of people besides Eclipse knows why, but rumors span from mutiny to greed to sith or jedi infiltration. Either way, the Nova's became a blood thirsty merciless mercanery group, and they were quickly disbanded.

The Present:
Now Eclipse has been wandering the galaxy aimlessly, struggling to make do while still living his pirating ways. He's made a few raids, supplied some food for the famine; but nothing as major as when the Nova's were still in order. He seeks to recreate the Novas once more, and once again roam the galaxy in the name of his own moral code.


THE NOVAS:
The Novas have their own way of life. They look out for one another. They have their own code, their own laws which they follow.

The Nova's raid power hungry corporations, slave traders, corrupt politicians, and anyone else who has to harm innocent people to get their way. When raiding, the Nova's use non-lethal means when possible, choosing to disable rather than kill unless absolutely neccassary

During a raid, they take any living but disabled prisoners and drop them off at the nearest planet or space station.

They use their profits first and foremost to provide food and care for the Novas. Then they take the remainder and support anti-slave groups, feed famished villages, pay some assassin to kill a slave owner, or bribe off the current bounty hunter that is after them.

On the ship there is a strict heirarchy. You follow any order a higher ranking pirate gives you. Everyone, even the captain, helps with the cleaning of the ships, taking care of business, participating in raids.

THE RANKS:

Captain:
Leader of the Novas, is top authority. He pilots Nova Command, [link] at the head of the raiding group, and decides who they will strike, and how, and when.

Second in Command (SiC):
Second only to the Captain, this position demands a high amount of respect. the SiC copilots Nova Command, and helps in the decisions that the Captain has to make. Is also a crucial role for helping organize and select the Novas. Has the option to take a large share of the loot profits.

Pirates: They have proven themselves worthy of the rank of Full Nova Pirate. They have a bit more freedom then the lower ranks, and they get a bigger share of the loot profits.

Members: They have been with the Novas for a little while, so they are now considered members. They can choose to participate with the raids, and they are given a share of the profits.

Scrubs: The lowest rank, the Scrubs are still trying to prove themself worthy. They mainly help clean and repair around Nova Command. They do not get to choose if and when they participate in raids. They do not get a share of the profits; they only recieve what clothes and supplies they need to survive.

Everything I've done has died. My ninja monkey and pirate monkey and robot m0nk3y. its all dead now, mostly cuz i cant figure out how to draw the bodies...

I also need to make a good deal of cash in less then a month. like 600-800 bucks in a few weeks. i also need to make an additional 20 to get my own guitar tuner, and i need to actually LEARN the guitar, something which i have no patience for. Then there's my dead novel.

Well, i did finally finish my new avatar.

and now, since my eyes are drooping, i must take an early leave.

Hey everyone. This is gonna be a more cheerier and happy journal than my recent whine and bitch ones. -.-

First, I ask some help from all of you out there. I'm looking for some ideas for different things. One, I thought of making like a web comic thing, even though I can't draw worth beans, cuz I read people like Rimfrost's and hail neko yasha's comics and they are hilarious
So, should I attempt the impossible? and if I do....well, my main issue is figuring out if I should have a 'cast' or just random people things. Then of course I gotta come up with something funny...I was thinking of making them based around CounterStrike or Halo or some other game I play alot. Or of course, I could just think of things that happen to me and my friends in real life. All I would have to do is hang around with my friends for a whole...3 minutes and something of comedic power would surely arise.
Any thoughts?


Also, a little poll. Who thinks I should take up the guitar? I started looking through some lesson pages, and learning how to read guitar tab (surprisingly simple, actually). Currently my problem is tuning the guitar. I am apparently tone deaf, cuz no matter how much I adjust the strings it NEVER sounds like the 'E' i have playing. I found a few sound files that play the strings, E, a, b, etc. but they always sound different then my guitar. I'm thinking of buying an electric guitar tuner, where u adjust it and it lights up when its tuned. Something like that. Besides that, its just practice practice and MORE practice. lovely.

Ok. Yellow Day is over, and I showed my support. I didn't go ranting and raving about how Spyed was wrong or, on the other side, how Jark was wrong. I don't know the whole story, there are liars and people trying to cover their ass left and right, so I just showed my support for Jark the Yellow Alien. Someone will no doubt say that I did just because "everyone else was" and I was just "following the crowd". Know what? YOU'RE RIGHT. I DID follow the crowd, because I wanted to support DevArt. And I am proud of that. So I am done with people telling me I need to 'get informed' before I support jark or spyed or anyone else. i dun care u can go

Speaking of yellow day, I made my avatar based around the Jark Support. Know its over, I want to make a new avatar. I got flash at my disposal, and I want to make it look cool. Keeping in mind my interests, (everything from wolves *wolves rock* to video games to anime to DevArt) I thought I'd see if anyone had any ideas for an avatar. I'm not the best Animator out there yet, but I'm picking it up pretty quickly.

Ok....hm...1) comic 2) guitar 3) avatar. Is that all?.................................
i thought there was more.....hmmm...

Guess not

Well, till next time my fellow Deviants.

...
that's what I need. I need a cool parting phrase. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/6152193/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/6152193/ Sat, 06 Aug 2005 18:07:04 PDT

Current Game: Counter-Strike Source
Last Movie Watched: Hitch
Last Book Read: Hard Eight


Yeah. My Check in Journals, as well as the above randomness, as once again been revived to annoy the living crap out of anyone that has so little to do they decide to actually read this thing.

First off, I do not like Flash. More accurately, I do not like [i]using[/i] Flash. I have a newfound respect for anyone that can use that program. Yeah, I'm sure I just need "patience" and "practice" but those particular words have NEVER been synonymous (Don't dare comment on my spelling) with me. I don't have patience. I don't like to practice, it seems like a waste of time. That's probably why yesterday I set my guitar down after 45 seconds of trying to tune it and went to the living room to watch a movie with a bowl of ice cream. Saw Hitch. Very good movie, funny, and recomended for anyone in the mood for a good romantic comedy featuring none other than Will Smith himself.

What brings about this discussion about the Flash program? I'm trying to figure out how the hell to use it. I want to make these animations for this group I'm with. Needless to say, it has not gone well.

Anyone else ever have a total and complete LACK of motivation? Like, I sit down to try to draw something, already deciding that I'm not going to care how it looks cuz I know i can't draw well. Not even two minutes later, I find myself throwing the ball of paper into the trash, and wandering off to find something else to do.

This happen to anyone else, or am I just that useless?

Yes, this IS going to be partially one of those pointless ranting journals, got a problem with that?

In other news, you should check out my OnlyRp Character journal sometime, I made this cool character. I like coming up with people, it's fun. And about the only creative thing I can do lately.

Random awesome quote from Hitch: "Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away."

Life is confusing. I usually try to figure stuff out, but I've realized that there is no point to it. I get no where when I sit around pondering why the hell this person acts this way or why I am sitting in the house all day or why this person is going out with some other person. Yea, life's confusing, but what are ya gonna do about it? I've decided to just accept it for what it is, and move on. Start living life, even if I don't know why.

Of course, by tomorow I will probably have forgotten this declaration, but hey, live for the moment, right?

As some of you know, I have thought of taking up the guitar. This would be much easier if I could just stay with something, (anything) for more than 5 minutes.

Hey, guess what, I'm moving. ^^ any of course anyone that's moved knows what a DRAG moving is. but I'm moving in the same general area as all of my childhood friends, so that's cool. and I may still be able to go to my current school, as well ^^ which would rock cuz then I could see my high school friends AND my older elementary-middle school friends. So, hopefully that'll work out. Except that I hate moving. -.-;

.....hmm..? so yeah. That's all the random crap I have energy to type up today.

peace out Lie, Steal, Cheat, and Drink my friends ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/6124591/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/6124591/ Wed, 03 Aug 2005 16:45:50 PDT Age: unknown
Race: Elementalist
height: 5'9
Weapons: Hand to hand, other weapons vary
Special Ablities: Can control one of 4 elements: Water Fire Earth Air. Each one creates subtle changes in his appearance, and much more drastic changes in his attitude and abilities. To counter-balance this power, he can use only one of the elements at a time. It takes time to change elements. Kaden is his non-power nuetral state. He has different weakness' and advantages depending on the element he is using. NOTE: He has only fully mastered air. All other elements he is still learning, so abilities may backfire or not work. If this sounds over powering, let me know, but I am good and making everything balanced.

Descrpiton:
Nuetral: He is nondescript. The kind of person you can forget. He has subtle red hair, plain hazel eyes, and wears street clothes. His personality is friendly, but his eyes hold a look of wear, like his mind is in a state of being worn out.

Water:
Wade
His red hair shifts to a blue tint, and his eyes are the green color of the tropical shores. His skin is pale, his hair damp. He is very calm in this state, and even when he stands he rocks back and forth in the wind. However, this is the most sinister and dark of his forms, and while he is calm on the outside, he is ready to snap at any moment. Powers are manipulation of water, can breathe and move freely while submerged. Weakness' now include extreme heat, and physically he is fairly weak, the effects of any physical moves not really noticed until a few moments later, a sort of delayed pain reaction

Fire:
Flare
His red hair grows brighter, as do his eyes, which now glow like burning coals. His skin has a pink touch, like a faded sunburn. He tends to wear different clothes, tighter and more ninja-like. Flare is almost constantly moving, with a lot of pent up energy. While easily angered, he is also the most cheerful, and playful. However, he does tend to get carried away. powers include, obviously, manipulation of fire, and can stand extreme heat. While coldness and light rain does not bother him, snow is his biggest fear.

Earth:
Onyx
His skin grows darker, his now brown hair dusty and dirty. He appears much more physically powerful, which is noticable since one is not distracted by his talking. Seeing as how he *doesn't* talk. While he is quiet, it is not in a calm way. It is in an unnerving, strange way. His movements are slow, drawn out, every muscle and every detail drawn out and emphasized. Power over stone, metal, and other earthly objects, but not nature or plants.

Arie:
Air
His hair becomes white-blonde, and his eyes are light grey, liked frosty steel. He is much thinner, and he gives the sense of great agility. This is the msot curious of his forms, and he sort of glides through the room, looking around with absent wonder. Controlling the air, Arie is a devastatingly powerful elemental side, since Kaden has mastered his abilities, which include manipulation of lightning, the storms, and the ability to "fade", where he sort of becomes the wind, to appear somewhere else. Physically, he is gentle but firm, and what looks like a simple pat can hold a shocking punch.


Oh, yeah, weapons ><

Kaden: hand to hand

Wade: A spear

Flare: a whip, hand to hand, and a short katana-style blade, half the length of a full katana

Onyx: two swords that can link together

Arie: staff

UPDATE::

I decided that, due to his personality, and that Kaden the nuetrality needs an embodiment of his feminine side, Flare is now female. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/5954892/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/5954892/ Sat, 16 Jul 2005 22:03:08 PDT
ME!

Hey everyone. I am back in town!!

Oh and I started writing a novel. other than that my life is boring ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/5258965/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/5258965/ Tue, 03 May 2005 18:14:58 PDT music: Movie Soundtracks

Hey everyone. What's up? Just thought I'd say 'hey'. For friends on , I won't be posting much for a while and probably not comment on much. Sorry, just got a lot goin' on. For friends in life, I dunno what's gonna happen. Now, I will likely ramble about something boring so you may leave at anytime -_-;

Lately I've been...tired. Not the physical sort of tired, that's just normal due to a mild case of insomnia. No, lately, and by lately I mean the last few months, I've felt mentally exhausted. Between IHS (school) projects, a computer project I'm rushing to finish, trying to spend time with friends, lack of sleep, and so much more, I've just been mentally and emotionally worn out. Having just got over the divorce and seperation of my dad+stepmom (which is a big thing for me. not that I am affected by it much but i got 3 lil sisters there and that makes it 100x worse) and now I think I may have to choose whether or not I'm going to see them over the summer. This has always been a Yes answered immediatly, consistently, and without a second thought. Now the second thoughts have arrived.

Then I listen to my good friends around, and I am too stupid to follow thier advice on various aspects of my life. Hell I don't even know -why- everything's so messed up. I mean, what they say, and even what I tell myself, makes perfect sense and in the back of my mind I acknowledge that it's the smart thing to do, but I just...don't. Why? You tell me. ><

Then I got this computer project. I got the motorcycle done, () and I finally figured out how I am to do the rendering and animation. That leaves one big thing:: the city. I have to make a complete city in about 3-4 weeks, leaving me enough time for the rendering and finishing touches. Greeeat. If someone (u know who u r ) would get me a certain website, I may be able to just borrow some buildings to help speed it up.

There's more, but I gotta jet, so I'll talk to y'all later. Keep it real

a few social items on my agenda: all of my friends here at DevArt, don't get mad at me if I don't reply comment or otherwise interact with deviations, journals, etc unless they are direct notes/emails to me.

secondly, I present to you one of my infamous Random Polls:

What should I do for my 9-week final project in my computer class?

explanation: i have been making all of these deviations of mine in a computer class. i am going to be putting some little things together for a while, but once we reach the half-term mark (9 weeks left) im going to set my sights on a huge, involved, detailed, masterpiece of a final project. What i ask are some ideas of scenes, people, things, etc that would be interesting to make in a program like Maya 6. if it's a creature, don't worry about the complexity of it. People use Maya in the Lord of the Rings, so the program can handle. and i have 9 weeks, and 2 class periods a day to work on this. 9x5=45x2=90 class periods to work on it.



also, im going to try to dig up some of my writing and start posting it in a series of entries. you can submit writing to DevArt, right? if not, that's what journals are for ^_^ so what this means for a lot of you is that you can look forward to more journals to delete

whew...that was close. I was really bored and randomly typed down some really really f***ed up poetry thingy and i had the sense to delete it before sending this out. poetry now? damn something's wrong with me..>

listening to: the sound of silence

Hey peeps. I'm.....really bored. I have not had computer access since Friday, so sorry if i cannot view, comment, and read all of your deviations, journals, notes, etc etc.

Well, I am im Washington now. Left my home state to visit my dad up here.

You know something really annoying? Last friday i was gonna borrow some cash and see if fayefaye and mag wanted to go get some ramune and hang out before the spring break, since i would be gone. then, that morning, my parents decide it a convenient time to tell me that I have to come straight home after school, because we -may- leave that night, and i need to pack....fyi, it takes me a whole..6 minutes to pack. ><+
and then, we DIDN'T leave that night, but the next day at like noon. *sigh*

well, my time is short. good day ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/4890423/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/4890423/ Wed, 23 Mar 2005 12:03:40 PST ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/4838793/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/4838793/ Thu, 17 Mar 2005 16:11:38 PST [link])

Current Mood: :gloomy:

Hey peeps....what's up....I feel...like...shit....Why? I have been asked this question so many times today...Why..well, if I -knew- why than I could do something about now couldn't I? ... eh, I just need to vent. But I won't vent, because that would make the person in venting to either a) ask me "what's wrong" (again, if I -knew- what was wrong I would be doing something to change that) , b) be sad + depressed because I am sad + depressed, and I don't want to be a burden to anyone, c) they will walk away...very slowly... d) will have no idea what I'm talking about e) yell at me for being depressed, which I don't need or f) something equally bad. Besides, I've always been able to solve my own problems on my own, so I'm not used to going to other people about them.

Anyway...for those of you who may, for some strange alien reason, be worried, dont be. I have just had a hard time lately and I fell into this ditch of gloominess. Every so often something a little good happens. Today I felt a -little- better (ninja) but afterwords I just fell back down. I would need something really really good to happen to get out of this rut i'm in, and it's looking like there is a better chance of getting struck by a falling meteor. So I guess I'll just wait it out. I'll be fine eventually, I always am.

Well, I'm sure you people are sick of listening to my pity speech. I always try to say something good in my journals to avoid it being all out annoyingly sad. So....hmm.... no...wait... no that's not it either...

Well, spring break is coming up, so I guess that's a good thing. I get to see my uncle, which is good. and I get a break from school, which is good and bad...all in all it's a good thing though.

So, having fulfilled my minimum good things stuff, I am off. Fare thee well.

Heeeey everyone what's goin on? I'm here saying life's good Why? I dunno just becuz, that's why! A strange alien infection has taken over me and I feel happy. I'm back to my "normal" self, in which im not, as some would call it (cough*Fayefaye*cough) depressed, as I apparently have been lately. I'm readin' Demon Diary, an awesome manga, even though I don't have enough experience to say if it really is awesome compared to other.s...but hey, one guy's name is Eclipse. Is that not the most awesome name ever?

Is now listening to: someone playing "Tribute" by Tenacious D. God song.

Well, one new thing for those of you who don't know that have been updated in my life: I found out that this one girl that I mighta sorta have had a crush on, I now detest. I've known her since 1st grade. She is not the person I knew then. Heh. Sheldon high school corupts young minds, I swear it does. So now my interest has moved on to others. lot: hmmm....

As for those of you familiar with my digital artist side, I am stuck between a few different projects: the hovercycle inspired by Faye's proposed AMV, a Spartan Halo-style helmet, a wicked animation, or just something else entirely. So now, we hear from YOU! Vote now! what should I work on? Should I a) make a 3D model of a hovercycle, b) make a halo-style helmet, c) an animation in Maya, d) start writing my novels e) start improving my hand-drawn art or f) stop asking other people to choose your life oO
Vote now!

Likes: Wolves. Friends. computers. the list goes on.
Dislikes: neighbors cat. most poeple at school. Computers that crash. The list goes on.

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey people. What'sup? Im bored so I though I'd say HEY what's new? I'm gonna rant to you on some things, but this is not going to b the usual "my life sucks" speech. 1 good thing 1 bad thing and a reflection.

Good Times: Went to see the Harlem Globetrotters game. w00t that was fun. Saw this girl that's in IHS with me there. 2nd time in 2 days I've ran into her. Which is annoying, because in such situations I tend to trip over myself and make a complete idiot of myself. Great. Like my rep needed another blow. But hey, the Trotters were awesome.

Bad Times: Teenage hormones strike again. I can't seem to sort out various feeling about various people. And not just relationship-oriented things either. I am questioning my friendship with some of my friends. I am trying to find my place in the pitiful wreck I call a social life.

Reflection: You ever notice how different people can be in different situations? I meantioned this to FayeFaye and SeekeroPie, but people can b so many different persona's in different enviroments. Take me for example. Online, like here on DevArt, I am more energetic and tend to scare people. Pie has already mentioned that I am "a very strange person". In person, it generally depends on how much sleep i've had and what class I got out of. But I tend to be at least somewhat quiet. At big social events such as dances, I retreat inside myself to an extent, staying within the safe boundaries of...the corner. Then regret later for not having fun Then there is my person as a writer. I do write a bit, and I have had several incomplete attempts at novel writing. When I am writing or talking to someone over Chat or something, I am again a different person. I just would like to point out to people, "who are you, really?" and so I end this journal with my new personal quote.

Be true to yourself. ]]> ~Kouga6644 http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/4613073/ http://Kouga6644.deviantart.com/journal/4613073/ Fri, 18 Feb 2005 08:35:26 PST Currently likes: Rage against the machines music

Yoooooo people watsup? Just checkin' in and given y'all a 411 on the updates of my life...not that anyone cares -_-

Well, I have taken the advice of some good friends of mine (you know who you are) and I'm going to take up drawing as a side hobby. Probably start out tracing like they suggested, but adding my own details or something. So hopefully soon you'll see a mix of both Bryce and hand-drawn, and hopefully some lightwave stuff if that bloody program ever gets here.

On the academic side, I'm going to bust my ass trying to get my grades up. Shooting for all A's this semester. Shouldn't be a problem. I got 8 classes and 4 of those are a given A, and the others are easy once i get off my lazy ass and start doing my homework (curse your lack of interest IHS)

on the personal side, I am feelin' good. I have some awesome new friends here. I know a lot of people that are a grade younger and, therefor, not at my highschool, but I've started to kinda grow out of them in a way. But now I got me some peeps to talk to during lunch (shout out to faye2441 and Seekerofpie) As for the rest of my classes...well I'm workin on that hehheh

Well people are starting to give me that "get off that computer you damn little..." look so time to wrap it up.

This is Kouga6644 sayin' hey, don't take life too seriously, no one makes it out alive.

Bryce doesn't let me create, it lets me change something already made. If only I knew what to do know, with the monotony of school life. If only I could even draw a f***ing circle correctly. If only I would stop rambling on and on and on and bother anyone who is reading this. If only...

but at the same time, I know that if's wont change anything, that I cannot accomplish anything if I don't get up, take the initiative and try. If only...

well, to anyone who is reading this: I apologize. This must come off as some kind of pity-me speech or something, and I don't mean it like that, I just needed to vent. Granted, the school library is not the best place to vent, but still. Well, I guess I should shut up and let y'all get on with your lives. Thanks for listening.

SUBJECT: COMAC StarFighter Carrier
INFORMATION RECIEVED BY: Recovered and repaired from recent battle of the Glinkar Trade Chokepoint.
INFORMATION IS: 98% accurate.


DESCRIPTION: The COMAC starfighter carrier appears to have been developed by the Skiijars to transport thier starfighters into battle via a core inside that is loaded with 130+ starfighters. These Carriers are sent out from the StarShips and drift into battle with assisstance from a large directional engine on the back using a strange type of anti-grav propulsion system unknown to us. Armor as thick as several inches to a foot, these carriers are notoriously hard to destroy, though a torpedo in the engine has been known to slow them down. The front of the carrier is then blown off by contained charges, and large pieces of shrapnel fly from the point of the explosion. A core is then ejected, which can be examined in a previous document sent under the title Carrier Core.

THE SPECS:
Number of cores per Carrier: 1
Number of starfighters per core, therefore per Carrier: Over 130, ranging about 138-140.
Potential threat: high

SUBJECT: COMAC Starfighter Carrier Core
INFORMATION RECIEVED BY: Scout run led by Capt. Kaden, organized by Gen. K. J. Darez, leader of the anti-Skiijar's resistance group.
INFORMATION IS: 93% accurate



NAME: COMAC (Computer Operated Mobile Assault Craft) Carrier Core

DESCRIPTION: The core that is ejected from the COMAC Carrier and carries the COMAC Starfighters. Each one carries a considerable amount of starfighters, the numbers exceed 130 on each core. While each Carrier can hold but one Core, each StarShip can hold up to 16 Carriers, equalling a total of over 2,000 starfighters in each StarShip.

IN-FLIGHT PICTURE OF CORE EXPLANATION: This picture was taken by one of the men in Capt. Kaden's scouting group. As you can see, it is capable of entering the atmosphere of a planet and releasing it's fighters. Once it's purpose has been served, the core will float as a bomb, capable of exploding when a remote-triggered sensor is activated from the StarShip, usually used when it has floated close to enemy ships.

NAME: COMAC, which stands for Computer Operated Mobile Assault Craft, is the code name for the starfighters I have designed for use by the Skiijars (pronounced similar to "Scars").

TOTAL NUMBER OF STARFIGHTER TYPES: 3

WEAPON/ENGINE SYSTEM INFORMATION: Each COMAC starfighter is equipped with a specific set of weapons. The Red Squadron is equipped with dual laser blasters that shoot a type of red electro-plasma that drains shields of enemy craft very quickly. They are also equipped with a different engine system that allows them better manueverability, though it is traded off by weaker armor. The Blue Squadron is similar in size and shape but with strategic differences. They have three blasters in a 3-point Tri format that shoots an electronic blue orb of molten superheated plasma. It is used for direct assault on the hull of a craft. The plasma hits the hull and immediatly starts to heat up the metal, which weakens the structural integrity of that area. Then they use thier bigger and more direct engine system and directly feed a type of nitro fluid that sends it hurtling at alarming speeds, directly into the weakened section of the ship. This suicide run is made lethal by the explosion of the nitro fuel tanks of the starfighter. If the fighter is capable of getting inside the enemy ship at the time of the explosion, the craft has been known to be destroyed completely with a 78% success record on the first hit, and a 98% with three runs.

ATTACK PATTERNS: The strategy of this combination is simple. The faster and more accurate Red Fighters go in first and pummel down enemy shields, then the Blue Fighters, who had hung back for the most part, streak down and pump nitro into thier engines. They send thier barrage of superheated plasma at the hull of the enemy ship and destroy it with a series of suicide runs.

ADDITIONAL STARFIGHTER: The third COMAC starfighter is the most balanced. An engine similar to Red Fighters, but with armor closer to the Blue, but with a combination purple phaser that depletes shields while inflicting minor damage to the hull as well. once the shields are down, all damage goes to the hull. These craft are used to attack enemy starfighters, while the others hit the larger craft, such as escape craft.

RELEVANT INFORMATION: There was once an EMP-equipped COMAC fighter, but the Skiijars no longer take hostages.

CAPTURED FIGHTER PRINT EXPLANATION: If you are looking at the COMAC Starfighter picture, you can see the green tinted blaster slot, and the glow of the engine. I did it on a simple blueprint-style color background for clarity. The red-striped slots are the "eyes" of the craft that give the most accurate details of the battle the fighter is engaged in, and reports it back to the Mothership for review by the captains later.

That concludes this documentation of the COMAC Starfighter. Additional documents will be sent once we have more information

Name: Kouga
Age: roughly 8 yrs old, which is fairly old by wolf years. The longest of wolf lives in the wild are only 13 years, and the average wolf only lives 6-8 yrs.
Size: below average frame built for speed and agility

appearance: Fur is generally a plain, simple grey that has a habit of blending in most anywhere, but his feet are silverish, giving hints to his agile nature. His eyes are crystallized blue, and are as clear as day

Personality: Kouga is a very kind person, once you get to know him. If you try to make assumptions about him, he will note that you judge too quickly and will be less open. Generally, however, he is a very wise and caring wolf. As with all of my characters, he reacts very badly to negative behavior. Also, he has a weakness to young pups lol

Background: Kouga was born to a wonderful life. Several packs of wolves had made peace and they were all living together. A hundred wolves with hundreds of miles of land. His family was one of the Group Alpha's and he is the younger brother of Kamau (Kamau_05). Kamau was next in line for the Alpha position in his family. however, Kamau had "anger issues" and his heir to the Position was revoked. Furious, Kamau went out and made a Devil's Pact. He commanded a group of bears from the lands nearby, and in the night he attacked the pack. Before anyone knew what was happening, a third of the pack was injured or dead. By the time the fighters were gathered, it was too late. Everything was on fire. Kouga had a younger sister, Kara, who was less than a year old. In front of his face, he saw Kamau murder his parents. After a brief struggle between the brothers, Kouga could only watch helplessly as Kamau killed, and ate, Kara. In a fury, Kouga and Kamau were once again engaged in battle. Kouga got Kamau on the ground, and as he was about to strike the final blow...he found he could not. He was his brother, and if he went through with it, he would only be proving to be more like him. He spared Kamau's life. Kamau, seeing his chance, leapt onto Kouga's back and ripped an x-shaped tear in his back, and the scar remains today. After that, Kouga traveled hundreds of miles, stopping in now and then to join some packs, while avoiding other ones. He has finally found another pack at WFD, but will he stay? ]]> ~Kouga6644
