| Toa Karou |
Author has written 24 stories for Transformers/Beast Wars, Transformers, Kamen Rider, Tomica Hero Series/トミカヒーローシリーズ, GARO/牙狼, and Power Rangers. Hi minna-san! This is Toa, presenting to you my profile! A little background information before we continue: I'm currently a Kamen Rider Fan, part of what I like to call the 3rd Generation Kamen Rider fan, meaning that I started watching Kamen Rider from a Heisei series. In this case, my first Kamen Rider series was Ryuki back in 2005 when it was broadcasted on a free-to-air channel. I used to be an obsessive Transformers fan, as shown by the small number of Transformers stories I've written, but I've lost that obsession and have completely turned to Kamen Rider. Why? I dunno. Kamen Rider just has more appeal to me, I guess. I'm mostly a crackfic and humour writer, but the occasional AU story may appear every now and then, depending on my mood. Due to my past obsession, some of my works may have Transformers influence and may contain terms unfamiliar to non-Transformers fans. And yes, I'm still an amateur. Name: Toa (not really. It doesn't actually mean anything, in case you were wondering.) Gender: By human standards, female. Age: Currently in pre-University education. Current TV shows: Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, random shows Movies: Rebuild of Evangelion, Pixar movies Singers/Bands: "Weird Al" Yankovic, JAM Project Music: OSTs and songs by the above singers/bands Real life role model(s): "Weird Al" Yankovic and Seiji Takaiwa (Yeah, that suit actor from Kamen Rider.) Favourite Fictional character(s): Hidari Shoutarou and Philip (Kamen Rider W), Captain Marvelous (Gokaiger), Date Akira (Kamen Rider OOO), Saejima Kouga (GARO), Kaburagi T. Kotetsu (Tiger & Bunny) Links: LiveJournal (the replacement for my blog, may contain the occasional drabble) Deviantart (my horrible attempts at art) Hikari Photo Studio (The new home of fan fiction by me and Icepath/KamenRiderKoori! This is where we post all sorts of fan fiction, including those which we don't think is good or long enough to be on ff.net) Current project(s): All Riders no Sekai A crack Kamen Rider series of one-shots, featuring slightly OOC Heisei main Riders. Note: I'm not familiar with most of the Riders' personalities, so apologies if I get them wrong! Chapter 7 in progress W: Snapshots A collection of oneshots. All future W oneshots will end up here instead of being scattered around throughout the category. On Hold Pendant (working title) AU. A look into Shoutarou's past and possibly that of another significant person. On Hold Reunion AU. Shoutarou attends his high school reunion. On Hold An Unexpected Visit (working title) AU. Guess who comes to the Narumi Detective Agency? On Hold Change of Charge (working title) Takes place a few years after ep 49. A new law has passed, stating that all Gaia Memories are illegal, regardless of generation. With Ryu away on a business trip, how can Shoutarou get himself out of this mess? Possible crossover with Phoenix Wright. In Planning W High (working title) AU. W characters in high school setting. It's not as boring as you think, fortunately. Co-authored with Icepath aka KamenRiderKoori On Hold (OC Kamen Rider?) Hydrogen A man wielding the traits of Element Hydrogen fights to protect others from Elemental mercenaries In Planning Untitled Eclipse Story Where I FINALLY tell the story of Nakagawa Kouji. If he has one. In Planning Untitled Rescue Force/Kamen Rider OOO X-over A reunion of 2 rescue workers In Planning 50 Sentences Prompt Challenge Of unreleased pairing In Progress 'Official' beta-reader of Icepath/KamenRiderKoori On Hiatus/Scrapped project(s): Driving License I have no knowledge of driving... may very well scrap the second chapter altogether. Awaiting Fate It's... too OOC. I don't like OOCness. But I'll keep it there just to amuse readers. | |||||||||
