Oh hello thar, I'm Alyssa. But you can call me Aru, or Ossan, or super cake ninja, or that hobo that lives in the cardboard box down the street, or giant alien fire-breathing pink dinosaur with purple polka-dots...whatever you wanna call me, I don't care.

So, yes. I am a massively huge fan of the Tales of series. What series is that, you may ask? Well, if you did in fact just ask that question, then PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE THE REASON MY FANDOM IS SO UNKNOWN. GET OUT OF MY FACE.

...HAHA no I'm just kidding, I really don't care. Anyways, the Tales games I own include Tales of Phantasia, Tales of Destiny, Tales of Symphonia, Tales of Rebirth, Tales of the Abyss, Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, Tales of Vesperia, and Tales of VS.

And in case you care (doubtful) my favorite characters from each of these games are Klarth F. Lester, Leon Magnus, Zelos Wilder/Kratos Aurion (loltie), Tytree Crowe, Jade Curtiss, Richter Abend, and, last but most certainly not least, Raven. He is probably my favorite character of all time, let alone in the Tales series, and most of my art will probably be of him (fair warning). My username also comes from him and I cosplayed him at this past AWA because he's just that awesome.

Well, setting the Tales series aside for a moment (LE GASP), there are many other things I like as well, namely Axis Powers Hetalia, which I am also a huge fan of. I also love the manga Vassalord, it's one of my favorites if not my favorite. Other anime, manga, and video games that I love and enjoy include BlazBlue, Guilty Gear, Baccano!, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Kuroshitsuji, Junjou Romantica, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, Toradora, Saiyuki, D.Gray-man, The World Ends With You, pretty much any Nintendo Game, Klonoa, Metal Gear Solid, Pangya, Harvest Moon, Kichiku Megane, Gintama, Legal Drug, and...that's all I can think of at the moment. I'm sure I'll randomly remember something else and come back and change this later, but that's it for now.

And uhh...that's what I'm into, I guess. Oh, I also like BL and yaoi...did I neglect to mention that?

I like yuri (er...shoujo-ai whatever) as well, maybe not quite as much as yaoi but it can be adorable too.

And yes, I am a pervert. Why do you ask?

Also, if you'd like to look me up on DeviantArt, my username there is AhomikoJD.
