Long ago, a young man who went by the screen name, Haxxorthemighty, was once a respected artist on DeviantART.com.  Then, one day, during a creative slump, he decided to steal someone’s art and pass it off as his own.  The artist who had been victimized by his selfishness reported him, and DA suspended his account.  After coming back online, he tried doing the same thing, and wound up being banned.  However, he knew that they only blocked his computer’s IP address, so he got a new computer and created an account under a new name, Haxxorkiller.  The suspicions of the DA staff were verified when again he attempted to steal art from others.  He became better at it, and was almost able to steal watermarked and copyrighted material by using some ingenious hacking.  He was again banned.  Once again, he set up a new computer, but this time, he was stealing art from all over the World Wide Web.  He became known as Haxxor, the Master of Uninhibited 1337N355 and Pilferer of Intellectual Properties.  One day, though, he was caught red-handed by the authorities, and was imprisoned for his crimes.  But he wasn’t phased.  He hacked into his prison’s security matrix and freed himself.  During a more recent wave of hacking, he came across some military technology that could change matter into cyber-data.  He used his skills to fake a transfer order to the local military outpost and set up an attack on the convoy with the “friends” he made during his incarceration.  In the heat of battle, he and a small group of his associates transported themselves into the World Wide Web using the military device.  With his supreme hacking skills, he was able to rise to prominence very quickly.  He amassed a great army of sprites, viruses and bugs that he created from all the art and ideas that he stole.  In addition, he was able to emulate the technology that brought him into the Web and used it to employ more felons and criminals to his cause.  Now, this once-innocent young man seeks to dominate the intellectual part of the Web…starting with DeviantART.com!  Can the DA staff and artists defeat this menace?  Time will tell if the battle between the forces of ignorance and intellect will know finality…until then…

BEWARE THE HAXXLINGS!
