I have been in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood since May 8, 2008, just trying to keep up with everybody here.
To find out of my true identity, please visit the main article for my character Cypha or my dossier 10035. Below is merely about my Earth persona that I use only on this planet.
Biography
Long time ago, far far away
In my life on the Earth, I was allegedly born in the land of rising sun, somewhere in mountains near the biggest city of the island. I grew up as the only child of the family, a spoiled selfish person.... Sorry, parents (on the earth).
Although my grade was not bad, my behavior was not great either
Anyway, I was exposed to Star Wars for the first time when I was in the primary school. At a local street festival, I happened to buy a small badge with 3PO, R2, and Chewie on it. That made me wonder what the heck are those creatures?? Then, little by little, I started remembering that I was originally from Arkania. Few years later, I borrow two SW books (ANH and ESB) from a library to start learning about Jedi and Sith, and eventually got a chance to see the revised version of the movies (with dubbed in our exotic language). At the end of the primary school, ROJ was released, and I almost cried when Vader had to be cremated by his son... (stupid...)
In the junior high, I bought all the books and LPs about SW, and also even owned a miniature model of a TIE Fighter... On top of that, I broke my tripod for a camera into three sabers, and started practicing my lightsaber skills with friends. At the same time, I was trying to mimic Vader's breath to be accurate as much as possible.
Graduating high school and getting into a college named Tohoku university (Chemistry major), I moved to North part of the island. I bought all the VHS of SW available, and tried to master the different ways of Galactic Standard Language pronunciations of Han Solo, Luke, Obi-Wan, and of course Vader and Yoda (Solo's way of speaking was my favorite).
Search your feelings, you know it to be true
After getting a Master degree in Organic Chemistry, I started to disguise as a scientist and worked for a toiletry goods company in the R&D division making toothpastes for 9 years. Then, the company sent me to US (Boston, MA) to learn some scientific techniques, where I was exposed to the "Tales of the Jedi" comic series to learn further about Sith history. At this time, while I was disguised as a scientist, I also started dancing quite seriously (Salsa/Mambo & Cha cha cha exclusively) to broaden my communicating skills, and even became an instructor by the time the company pulled me back to the land of the rising sun. I spent two years in my home country again, but told everybody that I got a bigger vision in my career, and decide to quit the company to come back to US to work as a scientist in Boston, MA. But of course, the true reason is solely because it is better in US to learn Sith teachings in many ways.
Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen
On my 2nd stay in US, I have started digging my knowledge about Sith by collecting KOTOR games, comics and novels. Besides, I finally found the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, and now can practice my skills as a Sith with my brethren. Also, I recently started practicing a martial arts called Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to recall what the warrior is, the way of the Sith.
Lightsaber
As you can see in my profile picture, I use disposable lightsabers on the Earth, which is usually sold for 3-6 dollars in every blocks I go. On top of that, I also use the specific grip (middle finger up!) to engage psychological attacks to other Human beings around.
Hobbies
Science
As an Arkanian, I like Science. Although I majored in Organic Chemistry, I have been working with inorganic, biochem, p-chem, etc... many kinds of chemistry. Now secretly working on ancient Sith alchemy, of course...
Guitar
I used to play guitar, mainly electric. From Heavy Metal/Hard Rock to Jazz/fusion, many stuff. I would like to try some Arkanian or Anzat folklore music, but don't have time...
Salsa Dancing
Salsa is also sometimes called Mambo. Since I did this kind of dancing, I got really familiar with Latino culture, and got many Latino friends. I used to teach in Boston and Tokyo, just a little bit though. It is a good way to learn body balancing, reading partner's mind, or express yourself with passion (as a Sith of course)!
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Although I always wanted to be a black belt or to wear those Jedi/Sith like uniform since I was a baby, the reason I started martial arts was because I wanted to have Bushido like fighter-warrior mind in my life as a Sith. It is a good way to discipline yourself, to deal with your emotions, or to learn not to hesitate to make decisions in a decisive moment. I am a blue belt right now.
