TRACK I - InTranced Intro
I go by the name of Notherland and I created this page with these two purposes in mind:

1. To give people something to read should they click on a link leading to my User Page.

&

2. To provide a demonstration of my skills in using the wiki(a) system of coding to people who might be interested in knowing.

TRACK II - Wiki(a)-ful World
So... I've... been around.

If you think you've seen me trancing out on some other wiki community - Wikia and/or otherwise - before, you're probably right.

More than likely, you've run into me on the Kingdom Hearts Wikia, any and all of the Final Fantasy Wikia, or on the Literature/Books Wikia or in a forum roundabouts in Wikia Central as these are my current top Wikia hangouts.

I'm something of a wandering vagabond and I roam where I please when I please, though once I 'settle' into a community, I'll remain an active member and continue to contribute for as long as I have something to share with the community. Don't confuse silence with abandonment, however; after all, if one has nothing 'nice' to say (in this case, contribute) then the best option is to not say anything at all.

Always Remember : Facts over speculation. Resource citations over gossip. This is Wikia - not Gossip Central.

TRACK III - Beyond Wikia
Outside of Wikia, I spend what spare time I have doing illustrations, poking at various online communities, gaming, and of course - listening to music. In fact, you might even see me on some of the music communities.

If you're interested in seeing the fruits of my creative endeavors, please get in touch with me by leaving me a message on my  Talk Page or by emailing me at: notherlands@gmail.com

TRACK IV - This Side of Serious
''I am in the middle of a move. Information will be updated post-move.''

If you'd like to get in touch with me, feel free to leave a message on my  Talk Page.

TRACK V - Random Rules
Some random things about me:


 * - I am all kinds of 'geek'.


 * - Been surfing the web for 15 years and poked at computers (albeit in a more laidback fashion) for 20. Yes, I'm old.


 * - I love gadgets and have an almost obsessive fascination for well-designed phones and Victorinox's Swiss Army products.


 * - I still prefer Star Trek: TOS and Star Trek: TNG over any of the series that came later.


 * - Star Wars was cool before Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen.


 * - I still remember the first Netscape Composer than came with Netscape Navigator Gold.


 * - I still have my copy of Wolfenstein 3D and yes, I still play DOS games.


 * - I've read over one thousand books in my lifetime, not counting the last 5 years of my life.


 * - I am a hack-and-slash fan.


 * Ohhh yes I am and the original DMC will forever own a part of my soul. That is all.


 * - I am a Final Fantasy VIII fan.


 * And I'm not ashamed to admit it.


 * Granted, Rinoa bugs the %$#@ outta me when she's in my party (I don't level her up much and she usually is first to go when I'm given the 'opportunity' to whittle down my group) and I'm not too happy with the seemingly WTF romantic developments in the story, but...


 * I like FFVIII. A lot.


 * Triple Triads OWN and so do most of the mini side quests and card quests that you can go on. Furthermore, the concept of the characters being students (and then graduates) of the SeeD program and attending school in the various Gardens opens up possibilities for fan-done story expansions and role playing.


 * - Despite being a self-proclaimed internet junkie for 15 years, I get lost in all the netspeak going on.


 * I'm serious about this.


 * Besides BRB, AFK, common variations of LOL, OMG, and WTF, I have absolutely NO idea what people are saying when words like BBQ and PWN appear along with what looks to be a bunch of shorthand.


 * ... Do people write in actual English anymore?
