There is a story how I got my name to be known as the first, Dark Ascendant. It started out back when I was in my teens, I attended Theater Arts in the Summer of 2001, performing on stage of my martial arts prowess. The audience loved it and my friends remembered me, as the man who created the name to become the unknown. After the performance is over, I revealed myself one last time before I left the stage. And throughout the journey, the road is not yet over for me... I decided to take my name and stretch it further, to become the antagonist upon the things I felt are unjust to our society. Instead of playing around like I did back in the day, I started to become more serious during my adulthood and take my ideals of "concealing one's own identity" to represent how we all wear our uniform not to represent the foolishness within ourselves, but to REBEL any issue that we find regarding injustice. My ideology is to symbolize what we represent, as individuals who hide our true intentions, where we see the truth, but not hear from the lies that twist that truth.
Throughout my Martial arts background I created a method, a style in which I invented, to express the way of the "Hidden FIST beneath the BLADE" (the name of this style will NOT be revealed). As the man behind the mask, I learn to interchange my styles and not stick into one path... that method was Gong-fu, the ability to become flexible and to adapt. I continue to question the relevance of the existing religion and politics as well as people and their idealism. I exist around the internet wondering how the world can be changed for the better and exist in the reality in case I need my weapons to protect the people I care. Keep in mind, that I hate people in general and it takes a while to understand where I am coming from.
I do not appreciate it when people think they are right, and even if they are wrong, they just don't admit it.... ignorance just pisses me off.
My personal Code of Conduct of 16 statements I live by in order to further my goals and survival. If you want to understand my point of view of honoring your identity with a mask, then DO NOT disgrace this code of conduct. You have to be disciplined, no funny ass NINJA monkeys, ninja turtles, etc..... This is emphasized strictly in a way to understand that maturity is something to consider you are self-aware and not a clown.
1) ALWAYS keep your mask on, you don't want to draw attention to everyone else. It may sound ironic that even with a mask on would draw attention, don't put yourself in a situation where people can actually see you, especially in public. The point of having a mask is to protect your own identity, no matter the circumstances. Always come prepared with a different name/persona and attitude.
2) Shed NO emotion. The thing about emotions is that you could be blinded from your focus, keep a level head and don't let feelings distract your main goal.
3) Don't be a god damn SHOW OFF in PUBLIC, be mysterious and always keep your cool. This is to rely on your focus, do what you have to do and maintain stability on yourself.
4) If someone happens to attack a defenseless person, you defend that person by restraining the attacker (what ever means necessary). However, do not attempt to be the hero until you scope out the real situation. Best to talk it out to the attacker and remain calm, no need for more violence. Express your knowledge to resolve a peaceful solution.
5) ALWAYS come prepared when you are about to face your enemy and must be able to see through DECEPTION. You have to be logical and assert your assumptions until you find the real truth and exploit it.
6) Strike fear in the heart of your enemy through eye contact. It is important to stay focus and keep a sharp mind without such hesitation or MOVEMENT.
7) Understand the motivation from anyone you came into contact. The thing is, you cannot claim the person in front of you is your enemy. Learn to understand their claims, but if they refuse to resolve conflict... bring them to justice.
8) ALWAYS protect your family, friends, loved ones...... think of them before yourself.
9) A duty is NEVER to be taken for credit on ANYTHING. Keep in mind that gloating and egotism isn't going to get you anywhere but more closer to trouble than you think.
10) Sharpen your skills as well as your blades everyday, to become more swift, consistent and control. "Metaphorically speaking," it is important to exercise your body and mind to adapt the surrounding area and what you hold in your hands.
11) Learn to blend around the surrounding area. It is important to have an outfit suited for that particular environment/area and/or disguises to make yourself LESS suspicious. My philosophy of "hiding one's true intentions" to symbolize our views of this society regarding religion and politics under a mask.... we are meant for stealthy espionage and/or reconnaissance, not showing off your colors. This is meant to explore the area to make sure there is no danger... and when there is, it is up to you to make a quick decision. We are here to see the truth, exploit it, and act upon it for the good of mankind.
12) When someone spotted you, use a smoke bomb to conceal yourself so you can simply get away from the situation, or if you don't own one, simply just walk away and find yourself a hiding spot so you can change yourself.
13) Do not trust anyone to be honest. People do lie, so do not be deceived by their feelings and emotions while they talk, that may lead you to a false sense of judgment.
14) To trust someone. It takes a lot of intuition and logic to make sure that the person you are familiar with has similar background as you (a kind of person who's been there, knows how you are, etc). It take a lot of patience to build up understanding of that individual to make sure that person isn't "fooling you." It may override rule #13, but at least take the time to know who you are dealing with, either for that person to be your comrade or stranger.
15) DO NOT give up hope, your goals to accomplish what's needed to fulfill your objectives. You may have lost the battle, BUT YOU HAVE NOT LOST THE WAR..... ALWAYS get your ASS off the ground!!!
16) MOST OF ALL, your top priority is to stay alive. If your objective is incomplete due to severe circumstances, have the guts to raise the white flag and LIVE...... to fight another day till your objective is completed
