Hey guys and gals out in Troperland, I'm Ruin, Queen of Oblivion, or at least that's what I call myself online. So, if you see someone with that username, odds are its me. If you want to call me anything, call me Ruin or Rachel.
Those of you familiar with the Yu-Gi-Oh TCG might recognize my name as being the light fairy counterpart to the infamous Demise, King of Armageddon. Looking back, I'm not quite sure why I picked the name given the various references that could be drawn to the end of the world, etc.
But anyway, I'm also a fanfic writer, my work can be found on Fanfiction.net if anyone's interested in finding it, just search for, you guessed it, Ruin Queen of Oblivion.
Here's a few things I draw inspiration from.
Anime
- Yu Gi Oh (any incarnation other than Yu Gi Oh ZEXAL)
- Code Geass
Comic Books
Film
- Alien
- Jurassic Park
- Star Wars (even the prequels)
- Indiana Jones
Literature
- This would probably take too long to list, but I'm huge fans of sci-fi and adventure authors like Michael Crichton, Steve Alten, and Clive Cussler. I also like some fantasy.
Live Action TV
- Battlestar Galactica (the re-imagined series)
- Criminal Minds
- CSI (All 3 series)
- Lawand Order Criminal Intent
- Lost
- NCIS (regular, not LA)
- Stargate (All 3 series)
- Star Trek (even Star Trek Enterprise)
- The X Files
Music
- Once again, would take too long to list, I like a lot of both Metallica and Systemofa Down's work. Basically, if its in the rock genre, odds are I will probably like it.
- I also like a very limited amount of Country with Johnny Cash.
Video Games
- Assassins Creed
- Halo
- Legend Of Zelda
- Metal Gear Solid
- Metroid
- {{Pokémon}}
Western Animation
- Phineas And Ferb
- X Men Evolution (I also like the 90's cartoon and Wolverine and the X-Men, but not as much).
And here are some tropes that apply to me.
- Berserk Button: I actually have several of these.
- I don't like it when people make racist or homophobic jokes.
- I'm not fond of people making fun of my height, I know its not a big deal compared to other things, but still.
- Men who think they are God's Gift to Women just get under my skin.
- Men who mistreat women in general also get me angry, had a bad experience with an ex-boyfriend, its a long story.
- Drugs Are Bad: Basically sums up my life, never drank, never smoked, never did anything else like that.
- Goth: My chosen attire.
- Instant Awesome Just Add Dragons: If you've ever seen me duel or play Pokémon, its pretty obvious that I like dragons.
- Old Shame: I once slept with my boyfriend, got pregnant, then dumped, that's basically a summary of a much longer story.
- Only Sane Woman: I feel like this is the case with me and my family at times.
- Saw "Star Wars" Twenty-Seven Times: Am like this with a lot of movies (including Star Wars), my Dad thinks its weird.
- Sweet Tooth: I like sweet food, 'nuff said.
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: I have never been able to explain this, but I am deathly afraid of spiders for some reason that escapes me. Ironically for the name of this trope, I actually don't mind snakes as long as they're not about to bite me.
This is basically for my subverted tropes, not very long right now.
- Southern Belle: A lot of people like to call me this, the truth is while yes I am from the south, beautiful (so people say at least), and I do have the accent, that's basically where it ends. I'm middle class at best, and while I'm not a tomboy, a lot of my behavior and the way I dress is less feminine.
