Break
From Azuwiki
Break (real name Mike, last name withheld. Absolutely abhors being called Michael) was born on September 25, 1989, and currently acts as the second admin of Azure Chaotic. He is half-Filipino, and half-white (though tends to deny the latter). Has been "diagnosed" by old friends as to having a split personality, with his crazy-but-friendly attitude in real life, compared to his relatively calm demeanor online.

Break, Man or Myth? Either Way, Some Info About This Dude
Besides acting as an admin at AC, Break has other hobbies, such as making electronica music, writing, playing video games, and drawing. As a musician, he makes trance, techno, and ambient music, but wants to delve into other categories such as big beat/breakbeats, drum'n'bass, smooth jazz, hardcore, and art core. As a video gamer, he loves to play mostly RPGs, but will settle for most types of games as long as they aren't sports sims. He's a cata-level DDR player, who plays for fun and not to count the amount of Perfects scored (though competition is still within his bounds).
Interests
- making music
- anime and manga
- video games
- drama (he takes an after school drama class with Moritsune and Tydraad)
- informal debate
- studying random things of interest, such as the Magic color matrix
- reading
To the future...
I am considering studying computer science and the arts at an (as of yet) undecided college. Future careers that I am considering are - musician, video game programmer/designer, writer/author/poet, and web designer. Or perhaps I can be all of those at once. But that'd actually take effort....
Artistic Influences in Music/Favorite Artists
- Onoken
- TaQ
- dj.TAKA
- dj nagureo
- BT
- Nobuo Uematsu
- Yasunori Mitsuda
As you can see, this list consists mostly of Japanese artists, and video game composers (BT is the only exception to both - the others ARE both). You may now proceed to call me a techno-nerd. Random bursts of first-person sentences are fun.
Random, Utterly Useless Facts and Other Such Trivia
- Break is semi-ambidextrous, or as someone has termed it, a "southpaw reject". He writes and eats with his left hand, but can write with some difficulty, as well as do anything else, with his right.
- Break currently holds the highest post count at AC, but starts relatively few topics compared to other active members.
- Break has an iPod video. It's black and is 30 GB.
- Break is pulling random facts out of his ass now, and switches between the first- and third- person damn near randomly. Realize how sad that is, and then move on.
Online Life
CRNet
Break first got his start as an active online community member at rocketlauncher's CRNet, a website dedicated to the mecha battle game for the GameCube, Custom Robo. He held the highest post count there as Shadowforce until UltraDefender (currently Grimlock) joined. Break's record was shattered within weeks due to his being absent for a weekend, but still contributed by starting the CRNet battle guide, which, like the wiki, any member could contribute to. And even though UltraDefender and Shadowforce were rivals in terms of post count, they eventually became good friends.
As a token of how much he enjoyed CRNet, the latest update of the Shadowforce CR Battle Guide sits on his hard drive to this day.
Comic Realm
Many months later, Brappy, former admin of the now-defunct CRNet, started a forum for his website, Comic Realm. Break agreed to join, and hang out with the small, but close-knit community. This marked the first time he used Break as an alias around his friends at CRNet, and again held the highest post count until UltraDefender joined. It was here where Break decided that a website should be made, one with a greater focus than Comic Realm. He pulled a few ideas from Comic Realm - Random Insanity, RP forums, and such - and collaborated with UltraDefender to make Azure Chaotic.
The Seeds Planted Give Rise to the Blue Disorder
UltraDefender, now Grimlock, was able to secure a server at his house and put an Invision Power Board forum on it. This new site was to be called Azure Chaotic, to represent both halves of this project - Break's love of blue, and Grimlock's chaotic nature. (To this day, even the admins do not know why they chose to use the adjective form 'chaotic' instead of the noun 'chaos'.)
Unfortunately, the forums were set up, and left to rot.
For months the forums were left in disuse, until eventually Break decided to add all of the forum delineations you see today, as well as properly skin it. With the aesthetics covered and the permissions set, AC was now open to the public in August of 2005, with the official opening announcement made in Comic Realm's forums. The majority of users are either CRNet refugees (ddog13 as devildog13, primary admin rocketlauncher, and second admin Brappy) or Break's friends online and offline (Redman, Kame, Moritsune, Tydraad, teh1337caper, and Akira are all schoolmates, and Arcana and Nel were friends of his online). From there, AC was considered a soft-invite system - you had to hear about it by word-of-mouth, and be invited in by a member. It was not necessary, but it was a "code of honor" that some members hold.
Break has only a single family member on AC, who goes by the moniker ShadowEternity. This is his cousin on his mother's side, and lives in Texas.

Inside Jokes
Break is said to have a girlfriend, Asuka Kazama, from Tekken 5, for no other reason than her looking cute and being his most effective character in said game. His current avatar is in fact of Asuka in her aikido costume.
Break is known or saying "because I'm the admin" when getting into a minor losing argument. This statement, however, is worth crap.
