Member History
Dreiken joined BZPower on October 20th, 2005 under the name Kuwagata, but changed it to Kaita Kal the very same day. He kept the name for about a year until he changed his name to Dreiken, and hasn't changed it since.
Comic History
Largely influenced by BZPower member (and friend) Rapi - Toa of Elements, Dreiken (then known as Kaita Kal), decided to create comics. On December 12th, he started his first series, Dreiken's Comics. Even though it was rather poor in quality, the series had a good run of about seven months, and then promptly died.
Now armed with a bit of experience and GIMP, Dreiken tried again to create a successful series, this one tying in with The Unknown Turaga Saga. On October 20, 2006, Dreiken's Comics v2: Sons of Shadow was born. However, Dreiken didn't have the ability to create epic-length comics at anywhere near a fast rate, so the series only had two issues before it was buried alongside his original series.
On January 28th, 2007, Dreiken had the bright idea to go back to making normal comics, and so created a series called The Glory Days. Due to it being a busy time in Dreiken's real life however, he didn't produce many comics and it soon died as well. However, it should be noted that Dreiken hasn't given up on this series and has plans to resurrect it in the future.
Reception
All three of Dreiken's series were met with a pretty positive response. Considering the low quality of his original comics, he was either really lucky or actually doing something right. In the long run however, none of the comics were widely successful. Even so, his comic did inspire a few others, including the Unknown Turaga series!
Other Works
Currently, Dreiken is working on an written version of the Sons of Shadow UT tie-in. Progress is slow, (He's been working on it for about a half-year now) but it'll be out on BZPower sometime.
