Thank you,<text to be shown to logged on users>, for visiting my userpage! Here you can find out a little more about me, my views and thoughts on all things Avatar, and about the fanons I am working on. I always enjoy discussing my interests with other people, so please feel free to leave me a message on my Message Wall!
Hello fellow Avatar fans! A pleasure to meet you. I am The Fossil Maniac! It goes without saying that I love exploring the awesome world of Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra. Outside of Avatar, my passion is for paleontology; the study of prehistoric life forms. Dinosaurs are my specialty, and I have been fascinated by them for as long as I can remember. My goal is to dedicate my life to educating others about these remarkable creatures and their bygone world. I also love writing, and I hope to incorporate it as a major part of my future career. I mostly write nonfiction, but I've always wanted to try my hand at epic sci-fi/fantasy fiction too. After coming across some truly excellent fanons on this wiki, I decided to give it a shot. I hope to begin work on my first-ever fanon soon!
While I'm studying for my undergraduate degree, I help to clean and prepare the fossils of dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures for either curation or eventual display. For a dinosaur nerd like me, it is the coolest job in the world! I'm often staggared to think that I am holding in my hands 70 million year old fossils that were once part of living, breathing dinosaurs! It's truly mind-blowing!
This user thinks that Zuko has the most compelling story arc of any character in the series, which is one of many reasons why he is this user's favorite character.
This user believes that Korra has the potential to become the greatest Avatar of all time. Her all-around awesomeness is why she is this user's second favorite character.
This user supports Kataang because it is a romance founded on true love and they were destined to be together.
This user supports Maiko because Mai is a guiding light is Zuko's life. Without her he would be utterly lost.
