I'm a sysop here, mostly working on EarthBound and Secret of Mana, with a few edits here and there on other games. Use my talk page to discuss something with me or if you have any questions! If you'd like to talk to me directly, I can be found on AIM with the screen name Azuris17.

Personal
I suppose it is a good idea to know your sysops, so this is me!

I am a student at Florida Institute of Technology where I am studying to be an Aerospace Engineer with a dual major in Mathematics (yes, a rocket scientist). My interests are primarily in propulsion but I also enjoy aerodynamics and structural design. I am currently in my third year with almost enough credits to be a senior, but I will end up taking an extra semester to graduate with both degrees.

I enjoy many things ranging from space sciences and astronomy to video games. I play RPGs most often, though I do enjoy other genres. I also play Guild Wars where I created a guild of friends. Eventually (when we all have enough experience with the game) we'll expand, but for now we are happy just trekking through the game and testing out new builds. I used to have a small website on my school's server, but it did not serve any purpose (and I didn't know what I was doing) so I stopped working on it.

You'll notice that I like to use parentheses, a lot.

I am also an actor and singer when I have the time for it. Most recently I was the president of the College Players, which is the largest student-run organization and only performing arts organization at FIT. I have been in numerous plays including Fiddler on the Roof (Avram), The Mystery of Edwin Drood (James Throttle), The Importance of Being Earnest (Dr. Chasuble), Oklahoma! (Cord Elam), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Ruckley), Twelfth Night (Duke Orsino), and Once Upon a Mattress (Sir Henry). My user name actually comes from the two characters I played in my first year of college (Duke Orsino and Ruckley). I produced the College Players production of Rumours and assistant directed the Fall 2006 production of Death Takes a Holiday. I performed in The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) in March.
