" I was born long ago... I have been chosen, I'm the one."
Although I watched both pilots when they came out, I would say I've been watching Helluva Boss since around January of 2021. The pandemic finally got the best of me and I started coming around here in March of 2021, only a few days after the Ides of March 2021, which marked the 1979th anniversary of the killing of Julius Caesar. Unaware of this near-coincidence, and absolutely enamored with Roman History at the time (Still am, being a man), I decided it would be cool to have a Julius Caesar pfp.

The first post I made, however, leaned into it, echoing Caesar's legendary last words. Jumping off the deep end, I went fully into being Julius Caesar online, more specifically his ghost that had witnessed the last 2,123 years with great interest. More boldly, I diverged from Caesar's actual life and incorporated into his character that he went to a Greek military school as a child. I think I only got away with it because I could go quite a while without talking about it and showed pretty good social skills besides.

After many dramas, high points, et cetera et cetera, I grew weary of this wiki, especially since there was a long drought of new Helluva Boss content, and I was initially wary of the direction Season 2 was going in. This all culminated in me not appearing as often, and eventually officially leaving in May 2023, letting the mask slip so that I wouldn't have to do it anymore.

But as of December 23rd, 2023, I have returned.

"I have come to save the day ... and I won't leave until I'm done."
In the waning days of the Anno Domini 2,023, the wiki discussions went up like a tinderbox. Still being good friends with a certain Discussions Moderator, I decided to rejoin for purposes of finding out why things went so bad and how I could fix it. There was a time when I loved this wiki dearly, and I have returned to it because I believe it can possibly be that place again... also I've started getting back into Helluva Boss.

So my goals are:


 * 1) Catch up to Helluva Boss and watch Hazbin Hotel when it comes out. Gotta brush up on the basics, no?
 * 2) Become a Discussions Moderator. This was something I entertained in the past and I believe I have certain skills to aid this wiki.
 * 3) Bring back Off-Topic posts. OT posting was a huge part of what made this wiki a vibrant community of very disparate personalities. So I want to bring them back.

"But what I really want to know is... Are you gonna go my way ?"
Naturally, I like Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss. I like Helluva Boss more, but I like both shows and their communities very much. I think they have a good amount of potential and I am excited to watch them both to their conclusion. Other shows I like are Seinfeld!, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, and the Sopranos, all of which I consider comedies. Other things I like to watch are those movies, I really like old action flicks from the '80s, other thrillers, but I also like other movies from that time period, my favorite being Kevin Costner's Dances-With-Wolves.

I also like video games. First started playing the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on the N64 when I was a very young lad. Other games I played when I was young were Skyrim, Mario Kart 64, Animal Crossing, Pikmin 3, and the Zelda Games available on the DS and 3DS. As I got older, I found a great love for strategy games such as Hearts of Iron IV and Total War: Medieval II, although this has been tempered in recent years. I try to play video games still as I get older, but I still mostly like RPGs, my favorites being The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and my favorite game of all time being the first one I ever played.

Music-wise, I have fairly eclectic tastes, never really focusing on one genre enough to find an underground band to like too much. I'd say my favorite genre, as a catch-all-term, is rock. That said, I also love classical music and my favorite musician is Johann Strauss II, a Romantic Composer from Vienna who lived during the 19th Century. I would say I'm also a fan of actual bands like Van Halen, the HU, N.W.A. and Steve Miller Band.

I also like reading. My favorite author is Yukio Mishima, a Japanese modernist author who did some pretty crazy stuff in his life that I won't say here for brevity's sake. Usually though, I'm satisfied with pulp mystery novels, especially those in the Leaphorn & Chee series written by Tony Hillerman.

There's more I could write, but this is getting long.
