Introduction Thread

Introduction Thread? Why did I not see this before!

Greetings, ladies and gents, Terra's and Locke's alike!

My name is Justin Smith, more commonly known as 'Havoc', 'Toa', or even Satoascorpion. Though my FF6-related name seems to be turning into 'Shock Specialist'.

My current project is called 'Winds of Havoc'. Essentialy, I'm editing FF6. Yeah. That's about it. Mainly because... well, I used to be a roleplayer. Made many roleplaying friends. We don't really do very much of that anymore, but the characters we've made are still there, and I've always wanted to compile them together in a game to play in.

When I was going through my Basic Training (I'm a U.S. Army soldier, btw), I kept myself occupied in my free-time by sitting on my bunk with a pen and notepad, jotting down notes about FF6 (from memory. No way to play it during then.) I had also realized, at this time, that alot of characters belonging to myself and my friends shared some similarities with the characters in FF6. I was planning on rewriting FF6 with these characters, as a tribute to my friends.

And then, many years later, I stumbled upon Zeemis' Emerald WEAPON boss hack. I had just returned from a deployment in Iraq, where I occupied my time by making two Super Mario World ROM Hacks, and at this time... I knew... I had to take a shot at Final Fantasy VI. I grew up with the game. I knew almost all of it by heart. And I wanted to change it to the way -I- wanted it to be.

My rewrite, 'Winds of Havoc' ; will be my tribute to my friends they always deserved.

I've also lately earned the title of 'Shock Specialist' from a few of my friends who have done early beta-tests of WoH (Winds of Havoc). Because almost everyone had the Shock ability on them (It's been renamed as 'Surge', and only one character has it now). That, and I'm a Specialist in the Army. So. Go figure, Shock Specialist was born.

So. Uhh. Yeah! That's me. If you have any questions, do feel free to ask!
