About me
Hello, I am DarkStalker719, but please, call me Ensei.

I have known about BIONICLE for about nine years, but really only started taking it seriously in the past, oh, five years. I purchased my first set, Metus, and soon afterwards, my second. (Either Gelu or Strakk) Their parts promptly disappeared, never to return. (They remain the only BIONICLE sets I have ever purchased, in or out of a store)

Several years later, I brought home my first parts and models (a pair of Vahki, a Rahkshi, a single Bohrok, and Matoran Nuju) that would last from my grandparent's house, and built my first MOC, a flying, dinosaur-like bounty hunter. I was enthralled, and purchased more parts whenever I had enough money (at the time, Bionicles were competing with plastic dinosaurs and Ninjago). Soon after this, I created my first MOC that would remain built, Xithax.

For about four years I built, disassembled, and played with Bionicles that, although sturdy, were little more than lightly modified Inika builds. When BIONICLE generation 2 was unveiled in 2015, I was extremely exited about the reboot, as I had never experienced the first run of BIONICLE at its peak. However, as the sets and story were released, I was increasingly unhappy and disappointed by the reboot, but, despite this, I was just happy that BIONICLE had returned. I ended up never buying any of the sets, and only watched Journey to One because it was BIONICLE, and I was rather disappointed in the story. When BIONICLE's second generation was cancelled, I was surprised and saddened. I had not been very interested in the reboot, but had not realized how much BIONICLE's return had meant to me.

At this point I was at this point working on the beginnings of my universe, and was starting to start reading up on BIONICLE lore.

Then, at the end of 2017, I discovered Custom Bionicle Wiki while searching for MOC inspiration, and promptly forgot about it. After a few months, I rediscovered the Wiki, and lurked around for some three months before finally joining. I am currently working on the first story in my universe, and making pages for all of my characters.

Trivia

 * I thinks that I am cooler than I actually am.
 * I have to work hard to keep my sarcastic side in check.
 * I am known for rapid swings in interest.
 * I will constantly tweak a MOC after it has been finished, and will often spend hours staring at it until I find a flaw, at which point I will be unable to get the flaw out of my head, at which point I will start to notice other flaws until I can no longer stand them, at which point I will revamp the MOC, and, satisfied with the result, go online and look at other people's MOCs, at which point I starts to compare my MOC with the MOCs online, and I will become insecure about the quality of my own MOC, and I will decide to rebuild it.
 * I did not intend for the above piece of trivia to become nearly as long and tedious as it did.
