Okie doke, I shall try not to be vain in this day's writing, as it could be very easy to become so.

1. I am a blacksmith.

2. I am a warrior-in-training.

3. I make chainmaille armor.

4. I'm an avid book-reader.

5. I used to be a stopmotion-animator.

6. When I was a child, barely crawling, I was often found crouched behind the great overstuffed chair teaching myself to read by flipping through children's books.

7. I have 4 cats (yes, crazy cat guy, right?)

8. I am a descendant of King John I of England.

9. For those of you on here who are a part of the Scottish/Irish clans, I am (from my grandmother's side) a part of Clan Gordon.

10. I can write in quenya elvish, and once upon a time, I tried to teach myself Gaelic and Welsh, unsuccessfully. Hey, I know what the Welsh word for donkey is!

11. I am totally in love with bagpipe music, yet my lil' sis is trying to teach me the Irish pennywhistle. surprisingly enough, I actually am semi-decent at it.

12. I (somewhat) know how to fight with a Germanic Broadsword.

13. I am an avid Christian.

14. I (once) was a Shakespearean actor, trained by a professional from the Royal London Theatre.

15. I am totally karking insane. But that's okay, all the best people are.

16. I love to help people, even at great personal cost.

17. I (foolishly) have performed 7 exorcisms, and survived by God's grace alone.

18. God has worked miracles in my life.

5 words to describe me, and why:

1. Teddy-bear: Despite my growly appearance sometimes, I am really sweet and tender-hearted underneath, and wear my heart on my sleeve.

2. Armored: both for my gift in interweaving thousands of tiny little metal links into metal fabric, and for my current emotional state, after years of emotional, psychological, and spiritual abuse.

3. Warrior: I have been trained in combat, and have fought in many battles against the forces of darkness, for the sake of the fallen, the hurting, the wandering, and the lost.

4. Medic: I love to help people, and give advice and words of healing and love to those who need it.

5. Crafty: both because I'm good with my hands, and because I actually use my mind in creative ways.
