Apocalypsering is a 21-year-old male college student, studying Gaming and Simulation Arts as well as Business Management (and majoring in both of those) at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He is an avid reader and writer of fiction and fanfiction, though just for fun, and a perpetual winner of NaNoWriMo. He loves video games and anime, mostly sticking to stories that have very strong, complicated plots (especially ThirtyXanatosPileup ) and lots of character development. As a game student he recognizes the inherent problems with having too high of a cutscene to gameplay ratio, but tends to enjoy games that have them just as much as any other game.

After considerable debate with himself, he feels that he meets {{SPOON}}'s criteria more than any other wiki organization, so he'll be among their number from here on out.
