Extrial represents my individuality. I've always been a person to choose my own way, and while some people see me as strange or freakish, I'd rather be alone and myself than in a group keeping up a charade. This part of myself often earned me insults and taunts as a child, but I couldn't stand the idea of doing things I didn't enjoy just to fit in.
My sense of individuality seems closely tied with the concept of darkness. That doesn't mean I'm some sort of devil-worshipper who hates everyone and wants to bring about the end of the world. I have no problem with the daytime, but I particularly love the beauty of the night. Perhaps I see the world in a different way to a lot of people, as I don't agree with a lot of the symolism that is ingrained into the mindset of the average person, but that's just me.
The name "Extrial" comes from a dream I had a long time ago. The dream was very complicated and hard to put into words, so I'll just say that it was very beautiful and really spoke to me.
