Amazing Edward Scissorhands tattoo

I don't have anything nearly this extensive yet but would love to have a tattoo this cool.  I would probably choose a vampire theme but Edward Scissorhands is awesome too!

App Obsession: Dark Legends

"Dark Legends" has a terribly unimaginative name that disguises a gem of a game.  Unlike most mobile games, "Dark Legends" has a lot of the features I expect out of good PC/console games. 

First of all, the gameplay is impressive.  "Dark Legends" features realtime combat along the lines of the Diablo games for PC (and now console).  While most mobile apps in the RPG genre seem to feature dice rolling that requires no real strategy, "Dark Legends" has a system of powers that can be activated real time to make or break each combat scenario.  Further, the player has the option to guide the levelling of their character as opposed to auto levelling (although auto-levelling is the default).

What really sets this game apart, however, is the setting.  The setting feels like vampires belong in it, including a persistent social area with a vampire club, complete with vampires feeding on willing clientelle.  Also in the area are a clothing shop with some really great costumes that run the gamut from dark modern to traditional.

To top it all off this game is free to play, which is completely unbelievable given the amount of effort that clearly went into it.  Highly recommended!

First Post

Every blog has to have a first post so I suppose I might as well get this under way.

First of all, welcome and thank you for reading.  Without readers a blog doesn't go very far.

Secondly, what is this blog all about?  Mostly it is about the dark, weird, and sometimes romantic things in my life.  Without these things I am hollow but to enjoy them I need an asylum, a place locked away from the mundane.

And that's about it I guess.  This blog will get a lot more interesting as it goes along, I promise.  Or at least a lot more full of stuff.
