User:Sentient

Sentient joined the Zelda Universe forums in November 2005 under the username ZeldaGamer21. Originally an arrogant newbie, after getting shouted at by Master of ALttP (and rightly so), Sentient took a three month break from the forums. When he resumed posting, he learned not to be arrogant, but was still rather hot-headed. His main goal at ZU was to become a well known theorist, and looked up to LOZ Historian as a role model of sorts. Sentient made various theories through the spring of 2006, and became friends with LOZ Historian, Seran Aileron (then known as LionHarted) and Master of ALttP.

In the summer of 2006, a group of theorists was formed called the "United Wise Men", and Sentient was offered a position as one of the founding members, and happily took it. For several months then on, Sentient continued to think of new theories with the rest of the UWM, and got himself a reputation in the group for noticing things others had missed, and focusing on The Wind Waker and The Minish Cap the most, thus earning him two nicknames: "The Little Details Guy" and "The Flood Expert". Neither of these nicknames stuck, since it was mainly Master of ALttP who occasionally referred to him by these titles, and thus they were quickly forgotten.

Towards the end of 2006, theorizing had become less enjoyable for Sentient, as there was less to discover in the Zelda series, now that a lot of it had been found, and he decided to change his username from ZeldaGamer21 to Sentient. After this, his love of theorizing continued to slowly decline.

2007 arrived and The Bombers was created by Leminnes in an effort to make theorizing more unified and public. Sentient applied to become a Bomber, and was accepted as one of the founding members. However, Sentient found the task of writing articles for set deadlines was a steep demand, as pretty much everything about the Zelda timeline had already been discussed to death, and thus writing articles about new information was something Sentient struggled to do and find enjoyable, so he left The Bombers.

Gradually, Sentient posted less and less on the forums, and eventually stopped posting altogether. Late in 2007 he tried to return to ZU, but didn't have the same drive to be on the forum that he previously had. But in early 2008, he once again began posting, although very rarely, and mostly enjoys loitering rather than getting involved with chats.
