[Aykree]

First Name: Ryan

Profession? Student?: I am a 3rd year student, majoring in computer science

Age: 21

Favorite Hobby: Video games hands down

Favorite part of Halo: The deep lore dictated by other forms of media like the books and comics. I love the grit and nuanced stories which captivate the human aspects of the Halo universe

Favorite Halo: Halo 3 ODST for the story and atmosphere // Halo Reach for the customs and multiplayer

Favorite Video Game(s): Too hard to pick just one, Halo as a series, Modern warfare
series, Minecraft, Escape from Tarkov just to name a few

Other Interests: Guns, cooking, 3D printing, and everything computer related

Favorite Food: Sushi, pasta, and anything I can cook chicken into

Favorite Band: Changes daily

Favorite Movie(s): Interstellar, Star Wars 1-6

What do you hope to learn here?: I'm hoping to expand myself into the Halo community, I've always watched the community from an outside perspective and only recently have begun to delve into it. Maybe get some cosplay help along the way

Have you built/made a costume before?: Never before now but I am just in the beginnings of building an ODST cosplay based on Halo 3 ODST and Reach art styles using 3D printing

Do you belong to any other costume communities? If so, which one(s)?: Nope! I hope to make this one a nice home

Other: I've been surrounded by Halo nearly my entire life, beginning with Halo 2 at a friends house when I was just in middle school, to getting my own Xbox 360 and forcing my mom to buy me dozens of halo mega bloks sets. My infatuation has only since grown into collecting items and now finally starting to cosplay. I'm an avid reader of the books, and have completed 16 out of the current 31 books. I've known about 405th for about a year now, most recently delving into the site looking for 3d models to print with but I think it's time to finally join the community and hopefully make some friends on the way.
