Community Member of the Week: Lycan XIII
Every Monday, we feature a community member who does one or more of the following things: routinely goes above and beyond for their fellow forum members, is a positive and active member of the community, and/or sends me mass amounts of cat pictures. This week our Community Member of the Week is Lycan XIII. Read a little more about this particular fan below, then hit their profile to see what their favorite movie has in common with one of the maps in the Forge playlist!
Gamertag: Lycan XIII.
Origin of Gamertag: It’s inspired by my love for wolves and Red XIII from FF7.
Current clan/community: Whoever’s on at the time.
Favorite map, game type and playlist: Valhalla, Infection, Squad Battle.
Least favorite map, game type and playlist: Isolation, Headhunter, Rumble Pit.
Halo weapon specialty/preference: Warthog Front Bumper: Give me a good gunner that I can work with and I can drive for days. Well, technically minutes, but you get the point…
Halo playing style (offense, defense, sniper, driver, etc.): Like I said above, I consider myself to be an objective vehicle specialist. Need someone to fetch the flag? Jump in my ‘Hog and we’ll go grab it. Need to defend the flag? Just give me the Wraith and it’ll be done.
Anything else we should know? Anything else you want to know, ask away!
