I wish I did. Almost got started learning one several years ago but I got in a car accident the day before.

I may end up weighing 500lbs but I'll still find a way to pull it off sexily at the nudist colony. ~ysabel

Wow, talk about a sign from god...

Im a red belt in the ever cliche karate.

There was a quote here, but the the person who SAID the quote and pretty much ASKED for it to be placed in my sig asked for it to be removed.

****ing ass...

I'm a black belt in Shukkokai style karate, but I quit my academy because the instructor started being a complete c*ck. At first he was alright, but then he went all about the money after a couple of years. I'd also quite like to do boxing, and then mix the two arts together. I'd be unstoppable *smug*.

Oh, and I did Judo when I was a small kid (6 or 7 ish), and for a few weeks Tai Kwon Doe, but I preferred Karate, so I switched. I can use nunchuka, and a fighting stick, though the nunchuka are mostly to look cool rather than actual fighting lol.


All of this is irrelevant, mind - in a fight I'd be far more likely to go primeval, grab a rock and bash a head in / leap on someone and bite out their Jugulars. I suffer from anger attacks, occasionally. A lot of rage in me..

You treat me as an outsider. You call an outcast, brand me an exile, but I am not so different from your kind, you know. Some small part of me was once Human. Perhaps this is why I fight for you...

Used to do Shotokan Karate, but couldn't go after a certain point due to lack of transport. Most recently, I'm thinking of taking up Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu.

Nice. Then you can live up to your title!

"Deliverer. Executioner."

I have to ask though - would you fight for the Light, or the Dark..
