May the Force be with you Princess - My farewell and tribute to Carrie Fisher

Today, the world, even more, the entire galaxy is in mourning. It is with a heavy heart and drowned in sadness that I says farewell and pay tribute to a great woman who was a very good actress but who by her role as the Princess Leia became a symbol of the childhood of many people, including myself. I discovered Star Wars when I was a kid, and Leia became one of my favorite characters in the Star Wars saga. A female character with a strong mind, a leader, a queen .... I'm shocked to learn that Carrie Fisher died on that cursed day of December 27, 2016.

She had had a heart attack, and although she was in a stable state, it was not enough. It is with sadness that I say farewell to our dear galactic princess whom we shall love for ever. We love you, Carrie Fisher, thanks for everything you've done for us. You have joined the Force, and we will never forget you. :'(

Carrie Fisher
RIP
May the Force be with you, forever and beyond
Another star leave our world to join the sky

Hero of the Month - Edition N°16

For the last edition of the hero of the month of the year 2016, I present one of my fictional loves, and also my first fictional love coming from a French franchise: Evangelyne, the archer female Cra from the universe Wakfu.


Evangelyne is member of the Cras race, a humanoid people like elves, and specialized in archery. When she was a child, Evangelyne was sent to the Sadida realm, as a companion of the Princess Amalia, who was the same age as she was at that time. The two girls grow up together and become very friends. As a young woman, Evangelyne continues to serve Amalia. But one day, Amalia forced Evangelyne to come with her, telling her that the god Sadida appeared to her in a dream, telling her that a great mission was waiting for her, but in reality it was a pretext invented by Amalia for Flee his kingdom, wishing to live an adventure in the vast world.
It is during this adventure that she and Amalia make meet Yugo, Sir Tristepin and Ruel, who together with them, will form a group of adventurers. Evangelyne agrees to help others find the missing family of Yugo and the group sets off on an adventure around the world of Wakfu. When Evangelyne and the group arrives on the island of Oma, they find what they are looking for, but at the same time they discover their true enemy: Nox, a Xelor, a magician capable of controlling time and eager to seize Each Wakfu present in the world. When Nox and his army attack the Sadida kingdom, Evangelyne and his group have no choice but to face it. But the battle quickly turned bad, and Tristepin sacrifices his life to save Evangelyne and Amalia. Evangelyne, who during the adventure had developed feelings for Tristepin, is annihilated by the death of the knight Iop, whose body disappears in his arms, called by the god Iop to be at his side. But after a hard fight, Nox is finally defeated and so the group of adventurers becomes famous for being the saviors of the world. Evangelyne becomes a true legend in her people, under the nickname of "Eva the legendary Cra".


As a Cra, Evangelyne possesses a bow she holds more than her own life, as an arch is sacred for a Cra. Eva has many powers in her bow, like being able to shot arrows of fire, ice, explosives or many more. Like all the Cras, she has a very develloped hearing, a great agility and an eagle's view. Evangelyne is a rather authoritarian character, tomboy, preferring to affiliate her combat techniques or deepen her knowledge. Eva also has a big heart, like her friends, she does not hesitate to help the poor people in distress. Even if she often criticizes Tristepin for her limited intelligence or her way of rushing without thinking, she loves him deeply and will go so far as to embrace him, thus showhing her true feelings, which seem reciprocal on his side.

The Versatile Blogger Award

I did not expect one day to be nominated for an award about blog, I did not even know that an award existed for it. It's fun and interesting as a concept. If it can allow bloggers looking for themselves to have some publicity and find the audience they are looking for, it's a good idea. After exceeding 20,000 views, the Killmaster must be worthy and above all, being himself.

In the first place, I thank my good Canadian friend Emily Hill, the Sci-Fi Queen, since we met, we have supported each other. His comments have more than once restored my morale and the desire not to let go. With this mutual support, we have several times stand against internet trolls that were looking to put crap. A fight that I led alone since forever, but now, I am no longer alone. Emily and I have been friends since 2013, we have never met for real, and yet, trust is there, as the friendship. Who knows? Maybe one day we will meet. The Killmaster thanks you again Emily \m/ Keep Rockin' \m/

To go in the universe of Emily, let's go Right Here
If you're a nerd, and proud to be, don't hesitate, Go!

For the rules I have to respect, I have to tell 7 things about myself. Alright, the Killmaster will deliver his life.

1. From 2008 to 2013, I've been a Wrestling Fan, especially of the WWE. My favorite wrestlers were superstars like Undertaker, Edge, Cm Punk, Umaga, Beth Phoenix.... But now my Wrestling period is finish, cause the good period of the WWE ended, for me, and the new is not at my taste. Too bad.

2. In high school, I fell into a nervous breakdown and almost committed suicide one night.

3. The band who made me become a Metalhead is Motörhead

4. I can not stand injustice, racism and intolerance. I'm not a violent person, but these three things have the gift of making me really crazy.

5. My first trip abroad was in London.

6. From 2012 to 2013, I trained myself to become a professional wrestler, in the French Federation, the WS (Wrestling Stars), but I abandonned this project because of my asthma I could not keep up the rhythm and I discovered that I was not made for that.

7. When I was eight months old, I could have been dead. One day in the street, my parents and I were almost hit by a car, whose driver had fallen asleep at the wheel. My father had some slight fractures, my mother was not hurt, and luckily for me, the stroller where I was has been solid enough to take the shock, to be just pushed to the side, and saved my life. This incident even appeared in the local newspaper. 

Ok, now I have to nominate 15 other bloggers, but I don't know a lot, so, I will nominate those I know, even if they are already nominated, well, it will make one more vote for them, I'm glad to give.


Sci-fi, Fantasy, Rock music. This is the universe of my friend Emily Hill. Let's see the universe of the Sci-fi queen. \m/

Villain of the Month - Edition N°16

For the release of the movie Rogue One, I honor the most emblematic character of the franchise Star Wars and one of my first and favorite childhood villains: THE lord sith, Darth Vader.


Before becoming one of the biggest threats in the galaxy, Vador was called Anakin Skywalker, and was destined to become the savior of the galaxy, the one that would bring balance. But by a tragedy arising from the death of his wife, Padme, and a conspiracy orchestrated by the Lord Sith, Sidious, Anakin lost his mind, sank into total anger and became what he had sworn to fight, destroying the Jedi Order rather than save it. Severely wounded by Obi-Wan and burned all over his body, Anakin had to receive implants and cybernetic members, and permanently wears an armor, without which he can not survive. Formed by Sidious in the path of the dark side, Vador sowed terror throughout the galaxy, eradicating any threat likely to harm the empire. But one day he found the traces of Luke and Leia Skywalker, two young brothers and sisters who turn out to be his children, born to their mother Padme before she died. During this adventure, Vador will reveal to Luke who he really is, which will have a very strong impression on Luke (and we can understand why lol).
However, Luke, increasingly persuaded to be able to bring his father back to the right side, succeeded in making Vador doubt about what he is (in the discussion scene on Endor, when Luke, seeing Vador denial of reality , Says that his father is really dead, and Vador, remaining alone, plunges into a kind of thoughtful silence, so we can think that he reflects on what his son has just told him.) And when Luke, brought before the Emperor Sidious, tries to kill the latter, then enters a fight between father and son, of which Luke emerges victorious after he cut the cybernetic hand of Vador. Sidious, thrilled by Luke's brutal power, tries to corrupt the young Jedi, pushing him to kill his father and take his place, but Luke refuses, refusing to become a soulless machine. Sidious, furious, decides to kill Luke by lightning, and for a moment Vador remains silent, wounded, watching his own son being killed before his eyes. It is then that the spirit of Anakin returns to life, regaining real consciousness of who he is, and seizes the emperor. Electrocuted by flashes of force, Vador, returning as Anakin, throws his old master into the void, ending the reign of the emperor and the sith lord. Thus, Vador / Anakin, completes the prophecy to which he was always attached: defeat the sith and bring back the balance. This was his last act of bravery, because Anakin died shortly afterwards, weakened by his wounds and desirous of wanting to die in peace after having done so much harm around him, knowing that his children, Luke and Leia, would do better, to reestablish the order in the galaxy.


In all history, Darth Vader is one of the most tragic characters, and epic villains, as much by his appearance, his personnality, or his breath. Formerly good and promised a bright future in the jedi order, he became a soulless and heartless killer, destroyed by the influence of the dark side and the death of the woman he loved. What a drama!!! Vader is surely one of the most dangerous and powerful sith, mastering the force with disconcerting ease and handling the lightsaber as an elite. Moreover, its cybernetic members give him a superhuman strength. Vader is also without pity with his own allies and does not hesitate to kill those who disappoint him, which earned him a terrifying reputation among the officers of the empire, who fear him above all else. His armor was made to inspire terror, to keep him alive, but also to make him suffer permanently while remaining alive (a punishment inflicted by Sidious to punish him for have not killing Obi-Wan Kenobi).

DiscoveRock Edition N°21 - Sinheresy

Sorry if there was no DiscoveRock in November, but I was not at my best and I did not feel inspired to write, but now, for the month of Christmas, I come back for The new edition. This time we go to Italy, to discover a band that I saw in concert, with whom I made a photo, and which are for me one of my most beautiful discoveries of the year 2016: Sinheresy.
Formed in 2009 first as a cover band featuring Nightwish songs, Sinheresy begins to make his own songs from 2011, but keeping his Metal Symphonic style powerful and very addictive. The magnificent voice of the female singer, Cecilia Petrini, and the powerful voice of the male singer, Stefano Sain, are in perfect coherence in the songs and with the melodic guitar riffs, the beat of the drums and the melody of the keyboards. For the moment, the band has made a demo, an EP, and their first official album, Paint the World, was released in 2013. I saw them at Paris, as opening act band for Tarja Turunen, and I felt in love immediatly with their music style and their songs. For me, Sinheresy are among the future of the Symphonic Metal.
If you like Symphonic Metal, Sinheresy is made for you.


Members:
- Cecilia Petrini (vocals)
- Stefano Sain (vocals)
- Lorenzo Pasutto (guitars)
- Davide Sportiello (bass)
- Alex Vescovi (drums)
- Daniele Girardelli (keyboards)





Bonus: my photo with Cecilia Petrini, Stefano Sain, the two singers, and Danielle Girardelli the keyboardist, after the show at Paris.

Airbourne at Paris - My last concert of 2016

To finish a year by the concert of a group that you like is good, but to finish with a group that is part of your top 3 personal is better. This happened to me on December 1st, in Paris, when I went to see the group that for me is the future of rock music: Airbourne.


For my last concert of the year, I was not alone, because my father was with me. I made him discover Airbourne, he loved, and he wanted to see them in live, and there too he loved. For the concert I was on one of the balconies, close to the stage, with a very good overview. I could have chosen to go into the pit, but I knew that with Airbourne, the pit would turn into a battlefield, and I was right. From the first song, the entire pit began to become a crazy mess. But that's it, the Airbourne style!
At the beginning, I was a little afraid because I had learned from the news that a group of terrorists had planned a new attack on Paris the day I went to see the concert but fortunately, the cops arrested the terrorists and defeated their plans in advance. I can not say if the concert room le Trianon was one of their targets, but I was reassured. Thank you to the police and the anti-terrorism unit.


For the concert, Airbourne played a few songs from the new album released this year, but also many old songs, such as No Way but the Hard Way, or Too Much Too Young Too Fast, and of course the best known: Live It Up and Runnin 'Wild. The atmosphere was completely electric and the room was full. Joel O'Keeffe, the leader of the band, sprinkled the first rows of the pit with cans of beer, as usual, smashing them on his skull. He also went through the crowd playing the guitar, all on the shoulders of a vigil. At one point, during a song, Joel noticed me. I made the horns of the devil in his direction, he was looking towards the balcony at that moment. He smiled, and made the horns of the devil in my direction. I was too happy. And of course, Airbourne also paid tribute to one of their idols, the great Lemmy Kilmister, playing the tribute song they created for him: It's All for Rock N Roll.


Setlist of the show:
Ready to Rock
Too Much, Too Young, Too Fast
Chewin' the Fat
Rivalry
Girls in Black
It's All for Rock 'n' Roll
Down on You
Breakin' Outta Hell
No Way but the Hard Way
Stand Up for Rock 'n' Roll
Live It Up
Runnin' Wild


Thank you fucking much Airbourne, for have made my last concert of 2016, a 200% rock show, hot as hell!!!!
