	My journey with ''[[Assassin's Creed (series)\|Assassin's Creed]]'' technically began with the iOS mobile game ''[[Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles]]'' (2008), which for some time was my only exposure to the series since I was late in getting a seventh generation console. Then in 2010, I selected ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' (2010) as the first game to try out with my new {{wiki\|PlayStation 3}}, and the immediate experience was one of both novelty and homeliness. Four key components of the series enticed me: political philosophy, world history, the {{wiki\|Order of Assassins\|assassin}}–{{wiki\|ninja}}-{{wiki\|youxia\|xiake}} theme, its initial premise of spotlighting settings and cultures under-represented in popular media, and cinematically immersive rather than fantastical or grind-festive combat. It was uncanny how, in many respects, ''Assassin's Creed''{{'}}s blend of ingredients were perfectly tailored to my core interests.

	I, '''~~Cyfiero "~~Sol Pacificus"''', am a {{wiki\|~~Chinese people\|Chinese~~}} {{wiki\|California~~\|Californian~~}} ~~native of [[Hong Kong]]~~ who has ~~a passion for {{wiki\|history}}, {{wiki\|philosophy}}, {{wiki\|parkour}}, {{wiki\|swordsmanship}}, {{wiki\|cultural diversity}}, and the themes embodied in~~ the ~~{{wiki\|ninja}} archetype—all of which are defining features of the ''[[~~Assassin's Creed ~~(series)\|Assassin's Creed]]'' franchise~~. ~~For this reason, I have a great sense of affinity for it.~~

	Although ~~like the majority of {{wiki\|Millennials\|my generation}},~~ I ~~have explored many franchises~~, ~~some of which played pivotal parts to~~ my ~~childhood, I was not quick to adhere strongly to one fandom or another~~. ~~It is not in my individualistic nature to bind myself so easily to any group that can imbue in us a sense of belonging, be that a~~ fandom~~, a religion, or even an ideology~~. ~~As a result, though I quite enjoyed the classic, heartwarming tales of ''{{~~wiki~~\|The Lord of the Rings}}''~~, ~~''{{wiki\|Naruto}}'', and ''{{wiki\|Harry Potter}}'';~~ the ~~vibrant, sophisticated worlds of~~ ''~~{{wiki~~\|Star Wars}}'' and ''{{wiki\|Final Fantasy}}''; and the fantastic embellishments of history that is ''{{wiki\|Dynasty Warriors}}'', I struggled to call myself a fan of any series until ''Assassin's Creed''. ''Assassin's Creed'' astounded me with how deeply it resonated with my love of history, philosophy, and cultural diversity; that its gameplay fit with my style of agility, stealth, and assassination only reinforced its uncanny match for all elements of my identity. Notwithstanding this, the core themes of {{wiki\|moral relativism}}, non-extremism, and {{wiki\|skepticism}} underlying the creed of the [[Assassins]] played a critical role in refining my personal philosophy, giving voice and cohesion to the scattered ideals and theories of the world I had been cultivating since the earliest days of childhood. Far from being a casual fan, I regard ''~~Assassin~~'~~s Creed'' as one of the most educational and intellectually profound video games in the entire history of entertainment~~, ~~with enough contemporary significance~~ to warrant study in academia. When one pushes aside the violent, vindictive† aspects of the Assassins, their creed bears striking resemblance to the ideals of human rights and peace movements throughout the world and the {{wiki\|empiricism\|empiricist}} philosophy at the roots of {{wiki\|science}}. To put it simply, in a way it felt like a perfect game made for me, though I am not without my criticisms of other aspects of the game aside from its themes.

	~~==Editing Style==~~
	~~In all that I aspire to, my devotion to perfectionism is almost dogmatic. In particular,~~ I am fastidious with my diction, carefully weighing each and every last word or phrasing to ensure that it delivers its meaning with utmost accuracy. Such nuances many would miss while compiling hasty summaries or especially in describing the principles of a character, and I hope that this strictness does not intimidate any of my fellow editors. Almost romantically, I analogize the meticulousness of my edits with the precision by which Assassins work. Perfection is, after all, a guiding principle of the Assassins; although their creed says that it is unreachable, the goal is to mitigate the probability of error as much ~~as possible, to define success by its progress not by an absolute ends.~~

	~~In light~~ of this, I also view every word as data—information that one can potentially learn from. Though quality certainly outweighs quantity, greater quantity of information also generates a more comprehensive work. Consequently, I prefer to be inclusionistic in my edits, but it is in my nature to even be superfluous with my words at times, not only in articles, but in discussions as well. I welcome any fellow editors to help keep this flaw of mine in check with my work. Quite simply, I tend to struggle to put things simply :D. Moreover, I would like to assure that even if my ~~response somehow happens to be five paragraphs long, it should not be taken as an indication of defensiveness but rather as another symptom of my penchant for painstaking thoroughness.~~

	~~Above all, I strive to be civil and courteous to fellow editors at all times, even if at times I may come off stern or assertive~~ in ~~my positions. My admiration to the principles of impartiality~~ and ~~objectivity of Wikipedia is limitless, a devotion that is ever more critical in a series that defies the classic black-and-white dichotomy of heroic tales so well~~.
