Hobbes Lionheart: A Deeper Analysis of Your Writer

April 7, 2002 • FinalFantasyFanatic.com
“If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you’ll probably want to know is where I was born and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap.” The Catcher in the Rye, p. 1

I’m here to explain that. As most of you should know, my name is Hobbes Lionheart. I am 16. I am a junior at a High School in [redacted]. I live close to [redacted]. I don’t really have a lot of writing experience except that I know how to write. I joined the forums the third week of February and have been involved quite some time with the forums. I applied to this job for some experience and also have fun working with a website. I am the CEO of the defunct Deaf RPGamers. If you want to check it out, be my guest. The site is here.

I have been playing RPGs since I was little. My brother has been the biggest influence on RPGs and now he looks up to me for RPGs. I am currently playing four games: Saga Frontier 2, Final Fantasy Tactics, Dragon Warrior VII, and Lufia: The Legend Returns. I rotate the three games every weekend. I am also planning to get two more games: Xenogears and Breath of Fire for GBA. I don’t have a Playstation 2 yet. I am not sure I want to get it. Look at a later editorial to figure out why. I played a lot of Old School RPGs, so feel free to ask me questions about some Nintendo or Super Nintendo RPGs. I like Calvin and Hobbes so you will be seeing me quote it once in a while.

My goal on this site is to help this site become more successful. I am hoping that my presence here will make this site more interesting and more successful. I think this site has room for growth and I don’t think we need to rely heavily on the forums. There are other things beside forums that can make a successful website. I will accept reviews and maybe some editorials since that is my area. I will have a forum just for editorials for you to discuss and give inputs. I will try to update as often as I can and maintain the goal of updating weekly. Sometimes I might update early to make up time and not update for a long time. I am involved in varsity basketball so in the winter you might not see so many updates. I will let you know my schedule so you are aware of what’s going on.

When you see a Calvin avatar on the forums, that will be me. Feel free to IM me, E-mail me, or even PM me. I will always try to answer your question or add some input. This is the moment I have been training for all week. The stage is set. The final act is about to appear.

Until the end of time,
Hobbes Lionheart
