My name is as stated above. Saphirian Waterclaw. Also referred to by some in my world as the Lead Commander of the military to the Coalition of Allied Colonies. Do not debate the matter. It is an office, not a rank. A responsibility, not a reward of service. The only reward in war is a declaration of peace. As for myself, I am the descendent of a long line of generations of the Waterclaw house. I recieved my name for the month on which I was born. September, the Sapphire. Likewise every member directly under the name of our family.

Magic, I must add, is not a contradictory factor to science nor is it the stuff of superstition. It is what allows science to work. Without the mystery and basics of magic, science as we know it would fail to work. The third dimension would be impossible. Miracles would never save lives or interact without the will of God in every means of it's essence. Magic, is the means of miracles working. It allows us to discover and understand. Magic, is the unknown.

As for myself directly speaking, my day job outside of my normal life is less than impressive. Trying to organize this pitifully disorganized militia of an army known as the U.S. military as it's Executive Advisory Director is pretty rough. No one listens to the operations head and the white house can't keep their tongue from tying to save their lives. Sometimes I think I should just give up trying to hold this hopelessly puny military together but in light of the current threat you americans are faced with, you need my help. Only no one is following orders to the letter properly so I am beginning to think the situation is lost. Sorry. I tried to help.

However... I believe my fellow werewolf brother might be able to take over so america should be in good hands when I resign. I plan to resume my more effective role as military representative on the Coalition council. If the Shakodans really think Earth is just an innocent ball of poverty waiting to be conquered, we'll have something to say about it for you. Though you may not realize it, we are your ally in the sky. Just let me know sometime if they even try anything though. Their special opps forces can get pretty sneaky.

all is fair in love and war... except in war, cause they could use a nuke on you... or in love, cause they could be cheating on you... yeah. Dang.

fair is the f word in my book... any way you say it naturally, it comes out like you're a whining pathetic little victim

I have a strict gun control policy. If there's a gun, I control it!

I'm not a subservient bitch... I'm a decent individual who likes helping people. There's a difference.

In the dominion of fear, I am well known. Yet Terror knows not my name.

a gun isn't dangerous unless it is in the hand of a dangerous individual. A gun is safe in a gun safe. And that is where it needs to stay until it is needed for either practicing in case of the unlikely, or the unfortunate situation when the unlikely happens.

Don't ban the gun. Learn to live with it. Because this is simply the way things are. We are a society who has learned to adapt. This is simply another situation to deal with.

Silence is the one friend you still have when you are all alone. So thank God for your comrades, your family and all you hold dear.
