IXA

IXA, real name Mark and previously known as Deneb, Sabaki, gcn master and S.P.D. Shadow, is a regular user on the Tales forums. He is a regular poster at General Discussion and Video Games, and also is one of the Skype users.
Within a few months of his joining, he had become notorious for having one of the highest post count rates—posting extremely quickly in the Forum Games topics. He has, to date, accumulated over 7000 posts in that section alone. With peer pressure (due to the general dislike of the Forum Games forum), he eventually reformed and left Forum Games, officially renouncing the title of noob.
IXA has been a signature and avatar designer for a while, and has been asked to use some of his work on a few occasions. He is currently not very active as a signature artist, but continues to produce them occasionally.
 
== Tokusatsu ==
He is also well known (more so in instant messaging and on his Youtube account than on the forums) for his fandom of Tokusatsu, or Japanese Hero, shows. Despite his few arguments with Abicion over Kamen Rider vs. Super Sentai, he has not forced it upon anyone more than a few times; however, there are those that may disagree with this statement.
His current username is inspired from Kamen Rider IXA of the currently airing Kamen Rider series, Kamen Rider Kiva.
In addition to IXA, all of Mark's usernames, sans gcn master, have been inspired from various Tokusatsu characters.
* Deneb of Kamen Rider Den-O
* S.P.D. Shadow/DekaMaster of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger
* Kamen Rider Sabaki of Kamen Rider Hibiki
He has also been introduced to several actors while researching various Tokusatsu series. His favorite actors include:
* Takeru Satoh
