I began with the whole cosplay thing somewhere around the last months of 2009, mostly due to a joke with a friend. It became a pretty interesting hobby actually.
I been playing guitar for, at least, three years, haven't done much yet but there are a lot of things I want to do. So far, I've been writing some lyrics, I have a thrash metal project in mind, influenced by the likes of Kreator and Sabbat.
Oh yeah, I love heavy metal, while I listen to a bunch of other stuff, its metal the one which pumps me up. My fauvorite band is Black Sabbath, I'm a sucker for Tony Iommi's riffs, truly earth-shaking stuff. Also the dual guitars of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and King Diamond, the ultra manly bass-riffs of Motorhead, Ronnie James Dio's majestic voice, etc. You get the picture.
I'm also a huge Lord of the Rings, and Tolkien in general, fan. I even dress as a Rohirrim when I have the chance, mostly for Tolkien-related events. I love Rohan, and my fauvorite character in the books is Eomer.
I also have a huge, yet rather underdeveloped, interest in history, particularly scandinavian stuff (you know, vikings) and I love norse mythology. One pint of mead in honor of the Thunder God!
As for videogames, anime and stuff alike, I love the Devil May Cry series, huge Dante fan here. Also OPtard, FMAtard and I absolutely believe Bloody Roar needs more love.
Lastly, my life's been around industrial design, with a nack for designing cars. Hey, it's what I'm studying and what I want to do! And since we are at it, I love muscle cars. Those lovely fast beasts from late 60's and early 70's, Cadillacs, Camaros, Mustangs. Power and rock, baby!
