<onlyinclude>'''TheDarkEricDraven''' is either a very persistent [[wikipedia:Internet troll|troll]] or a self-professed "proud [[wikipedia:Pedophilia|pedophile]]" in the [[otherkin]] community, claiming to be attracted to six to ten year olds.<noinclude><ref>{{website|url=http://jarandhel.tumblr.com/post/32679139598/you-may-wish-to-read-the-wikipedia-entry-on-pedophilia|title=You may wish to read the wikipedia entry on pedophilia|first=Jarandhel|publisher=jarandhel.tumblr.com}}</ref></noinclude> He has been particularly active on [[wikipedia:tumblr|tumblr]] and [[wikipedia:dreamwidth|dreamwidth]], and has attracted significant negative attention to the community from non-otherkin sources.</onlyinclude>


== Controversy ==
== Controversy ==


Jarandhel has been stalking Zero for awhile now, convinced they are a pedophile. They have even been banned from other forums for this, but they continue, because they have a really weird grudge/obsession, going as far as to monitor Zero's fetish/nsfw tag on xir blog. Jarandhel, aside from listing several personal details in the name of "watching them", continues to also misgender Zero and attack anyone that defends them xir. It's really pathetic, but what can you do? For someone obsessed with attacking a supposed pedophile, they sure are a creepy old man.
Despite being banned from multiple otherkin forums and chats, Draven remained active on [[Otherkinsight Forums]] where [[Zinergie]], a global moderator, declared he had a right to vent and get support because "we are all a big family here so you should get it. No arguments."<ref>{{website|first=NotHerzog|title=Full Context for Pedo Support|url=http://herzogwyrmsyn.tumblr.com/post/29466167253/full-context-for-pedo-support|publisher=herzogwyrmsyn.tumblr.com|archiveurl=http://archive.today/wCXdP}}</ref> This fact was made public on both tumblr and [[AnOtherWiki]], resulting in the temporary ban of those reporting on this subject<ref>{{website|url=http://jarandhel.tumblr.com/post/29488923583/continuing-to-display-their-quality-otherkinsight|title=Continuing to display their quality...|first=Jarandhel|publisher=jarandhel.tumblr.com|archiveurl=http://archive.today/WghDb}}</ref><sup>,</sup><ref>{{website|url=http://herzogwyrmsyn.tumblr.com/post/29470050102/actually-they-found-out-about-that-because-they-went|title=Anon reply|publisher=herzogwyrmsyn.tumblr.com|first=NotHerzog|archiveurl=http://archive.today/kQW1Q}}</ref> but ultimately resulting in Draven himself being banned.<ref>{{website|url=http://jarandhel.tumblr.com/post/29491116342/kodamacorn-jarandhel-continuing-to-display|title="Kodamacorn:Jarandhel:Continuing to display their quality..."|publisher=jarandhel.tumblr.com|first=Jarandhel|archiveurl=http://archive.today/MSPlf}}</ref>

Zinergie has since posted a public response to the controversy, denying that their system or anyone at OtherkinSight ever has or will support pedophilia.<ref name="zinergie">{{website|url=http://orionsystem.dreamwidth.org/4921.html|first=Zinergie|publisher=orionsystem.dreamwidth.org|title=No Subject|archiveurl=https://archive.today/VdCCu}}</ref> Meanwhile, Draven continued to serve as a moderator, under the alias [[ZeroRei]], on the [http://animefever.forumotion.com/ Anime Fever] message board owned by another of Otherkinsight's moderators at that time, [[bloodmuffins]].<ref>{{website|url=http://animefever.forumotion.com/t50-he-is-my-master|title=He Is My Master|first=ZeroRei|publisher=animefever.forumotion.com|archiveurl=http://i.imgur.com/QDXl0.jpg|date=January 2, 2013}}</ref>

On July 27, 2012 Draven participated in a conversation with a girl he believed to be thirteen years old in which he engaged in classic [[wikipedia:Child_grooming|grooming]] behavior such as asking "since you are all desanitized [sic] to sex and stuff, do you look at porn or anything?", and stating "You know, my sister didn’t think you were who you say you are at first. You totally seem real to me, though. I convinced her…still, it’d be really funny if you were a cop from To Catch a Preditor [sic] or something. " and "Lol. It’s part of why I was a little scared of all that sexual discussion going on in the other chat. I’d hate to get arrested for letting a thirteen year old see such language." The thirteen year old he was talking to was later revealed to actually be two older girls who were baiting Draven.<ref name="groominglog">{{Website

On July 31, 2012 Draven was banned from the [[Dreamhart.org]] forums. He had been banned from [[Dreamhart (IRC)|#Dreamhart]] on Mibbit for several weeks prior to that, and was preemptively banned from [[AnOtherWiki]] on August 14, 2012. A morph account, [[ClowCraw]] was blocked on August 29, 2012 and several DNSBLs were put in place to prevent further ban-evasion through [[wikipedia:Tor (anonymity network)|TOR]] or other [[wikipedia:open proxy|open proxies]].

On August 15, 2012, Draven was banned from the [[Otherkin (DW)|Otherin Dreamwidth community]] by its moderator [[DragonWolf]], who stated, "I chose to honor the community's wishes, because I felt that not doing so would bring more harm to it by introducing tension and drama. I don't, however, like the decision I had to make, because I do feel that, by turning him away, I'm only increasing his chances of actually doing something illegal."<ref>{{website|url=http://otherkin.dreamwidth.org/20870.html|title=Verdict|first=DragonWolf|publisher=otherkin.dreamwidth.org}}</ref>

On November 10, 2012, Draven was refused access to [[Wulf Howl]] and [[HowlNET]] by their founder, [[Shiro]]. His account, [[ApocolypseMaiden]], was deleted and his IP and email address were blacklisted from both communities. The reason for the ban is stated as "[CyberSex/Pedophilia] It is not in our interests to allow a self-identified pedophile to connect to our network.". [[Shiro]] has stated that pedophiles, practicing or not, are not permitted on either community.

On December 31, 2012, Draven was banned from [[Werelist]] where he had registered under the name [[ApocolypseMaiden]].

On October 5, 2013, Draven was banned from [[Draconity.org]] where he had registered under the name [[ApocolypseMaiden]].<ref>{{website|last=various|title=Concerning the new member "Apocalypse Maiden"|url=http://www.draconity.org/index.php/topic,8720.0.html|date=October 6, 2013|year=2013|publisher=[[Draconity.org]]}}</ref>

On April 12, 2014, Draven joined [[The Otherkin Community]] website under the name [[ApocolypseMaiden]]. He had previously joined this site on February 28, 2012, under the name TheDarkEricDraven, but was outed that same day as a self-professed pedophile and by July 15th, 2012 requested to be banned. Per [[The Otherkin Community]]'s policy, his account was suspended at that time. Several members have protested his presence, but moderator [[Seraphyna]] has been adamant in shutting down such protests, including giving formal warnings to two users, [[Noise]] and [[Kakrikoran]], who were most vocal regarding it.

== Support ==

Draven has found significant support from otherkin on tumblr<ref>{{website|url=http://watchful-entity.tumblr.com/tagged/otherkin+defending+pedophilia/|title=Tagged: Otherkin Defending Pedophilia|first=Watchful-Entity|publisher=watchful-entity.tumblr.com}}</ref>, with prominent otherkin [[Tsu]], also known as [[Swanblood]] calling pedophilia a sexual orientation, comparable to being [[wikipedia:Homosexuality|gay]] or [[wikipedia:Bisexuality|bi]]<ref>{{website|url=http://swanblood.tumblr.com/post/29533188803/wow-you-compared-being-gay-or-bi-with-being-a|title=god-my-oh asked: Wow. You compared being gay or bi with being a pedophile. Seriously?|first=Tsu|publisher=swanblood.tumblr.com}}</ref>, referring to Draven's treatment as "bullying"<ref>{{website|url=http://swanblood.tumblr.com/post/29680060371/i-pretty-much-blame-myself-for-the-hate-you-are|title=Anonymous asked: I pretty much blame myself for the hate you are getting. I am really sorry people are attacking you because what you've said about pedophilia-Draven|first=Tsu|publisher=swanblood.tumblr.com}}</ref>, and stating outright, "I support the pedophile."<ref>{{website|url=http://swanblood.tumblr.com/post/29528400657/tw-mention-of-pedophilia|title=[tw: mention of pedophilia]|first=Tsu|publisher=swanblood.tumblr.com}}</ref>

Draven has also found significant support from the moderators and staff of [[Feral Nature]], posting under the name ApocolypseMaiden.<ref>{{website|url=http://feralnature.forumotion.com/t208-offsite-ownage#2194|title=Offsite Ownage|first=Kai|publisher=feralnature.forummotion.com|archiveurl=http://i.imgur.com/76PTx.jpg}}</ref> This support has extended to changing some areas of the site from publicly visible to members-only after his presence on the forum became public knowledge.<ref>{{website|url=http://feralnature.forumotion.com/t343-tightening-security|title=Tightening Security|first=Sharden|publisher=feralnature.forummotion.com|archiveurl=http://i.imgur.com/bvi8Y.png}}</ref>

Draven has since found support from [[Seraphyna]], who vouched for him on [[Draconity.org]] and stated "I've seen Maiden's entire forum 'evolution' if you will from 'proud pedophile' to a wiser member who has something to contribute and wants to 'get better' so to speak. A dose of real world opinions and reactions has definitely changed Maiden's conduct."<ref>{{website|first=Seraphyna|title=Concerning the new member "Apocalypse Maiden"|url=http://www.draconity.org/index.php/topic,8720.msg125166.html#msg125166|date=October 6, 2013|year=2013|publisher=[[Draconity.org]]|archiveurl=http://i.imgur.com/82EjPLZ.png}}</ref> According to Seraphyna, "When Maiden joined a couple of forums I moderate/admin for we all agreed to see where it went and ban them if the need arose, but to otherwise not base our opinion solely on the word of someone from another site." Later, defending his presence on [[The Otherkin Community]], Seraphyna stated "I'm not putting stock into anyone. I'm simply not condemning them based on their history in the greater community years ago. I have seen them be nothing but respectful since learning those early lessons, nor have I seen them lie since those early days. All I've seen are people who know of their early days in the community condemning them for how they mistakenly represented themself. Like I said, people can change and I do believe they deserve, in most cases, a second chance."

== Therapy Claims ==

Draven has expressed, multiple times, that he will seek therapy for his pedophilia.<ref name="zinergie"></ref><ref>{{website|url=http://itjustbugsme.com/forums/discussion/comment/250207#Comment_250207|title=All the NSFW stuff coming off of TVT currently|first=TheDarkEricDraven|publisher=itjustbugsme.com}}</ref> As of December 4, 2012 his posts indicated that he still had not done so and had "not talked to many therapists" since he was fourteen.<ref>{{website|url=http://feralnature.forumotion.com/t288-asperger-s-disorder-dropped-from-diagnostic-guide|title=Re: Asperger's Disorder dropped from diagnostic guide.|first=ApocolypseMaiden|publisher=feralnature.forummotion.com|archiveurl=http://i.imgur.com/7auE9.jpg}}</ref>

Since then, Draven has claimed multiple times that he began seeing a therapist in December 2012, and that he is "not a lolicon anymore" or "not a pedophile anymore". Chat logs from May 2013, however, reveal him stating that he did not discuss his pedophilia with his therapist, saying "It was replaced by something else on it's own. What would I say 'yeah I was turned on by kids now I'm not how do you fix me doc'"<ref name="sinrh-draven-chat">{{website|url=http://something-is-not-right-here.tumblr.com/post/49635360892/snippets-of-a-draven-chat|title=Snippets of a Draven Chat|first=Something Is Not Right Here|publisher=http://something-is-not-right-here.tumblr.com}}</ref>.

On October 27, 2013, Draven sent an ask to [[Jarandhel Dreamsinger]] on {{w|Tumblr}}, stating "And if you want proof I didn't just start saying I'm talking to my therapist about all that stuff, you can ask Kenna."<ref name="draven-kenna-ask">{{website|url=http://jarandhel.tumblr.com/post/65246280575/and-if-you-want-proof-i-didnt-just-start-saying-im#tumblr_notes|title=And if you want proof|first=TheDarkEricDraven|publisher=http://jarandhel.tumblr.com}}</ref> To which Kenna responded, saying "Yeah, that’s a flat-out lie. The last time I spoke to him about his therapist, he specifically told me he didn’t want to talk to them about his pedophilia because ‘Far-kun’ told him he might get in trouble." <ref name="draven-kenna-reply">{{website|url=http://bullshitincorporated.wordpress.com/2013/10/08/rettebsnrub-saltymilkandpennies/|title=I wish she could still forgive me|first=Kenna|publisher=http://bullshitincorporated.wordpress.com|archiveurl=http://archive.today/qMtQL}}</ref>

Despite this, Draven continues to maintain "I’ve talked to my therapist several times about it even after I stopped being a lolicon, and he’s the one that told me it was a learned phase."<ref name="draven-therapist">{{website|url=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com/post/69038966956/for-all-the-people-whove-ever-said-that-troll-blogs|title=For all the people who've ever said that troll blogs|first=TheDarkEricDraven|publisher=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com|archiveurl=http://archive.today/b6gPC}}</ref>

Draven also continues to post sexualized images of children, such as one where the {{w|Neon Genesis Evangelion}} character {{w|Rei Ayanami}} (a clone portrayed as 14 though chronologically younger) asks the character {{w|Asuka Langley}} (14) if she is "riding his baloney pony" <ref name="baloney">{{website|url=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com/post/83747413685|title=Are you riding his baloney pony?|first=TheDarkEricDraven|archiveurl=http://archive.today/QRsm0}}</ref> or another where {{w|Puella Magi Madoka Magica}} characters {{w|List_of_Puella_Magi_Madoka_Magica_characters#Madoka_Kaname|Madoka Kaname}} (14) and {{w|List_of_Puella_Magi_Madoka_Magica_characters#Homura_Akemi|Homura Akemi}} (14) have their heads in each other's underpants, which Draven commented on with the words "This is /incredibly/ sexy"<ref name="magica">{{website|url=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com/post/81828806449/graphic-digital-you-and-me-this-is|title=You and Me This Is|first=TheDarkEricDraven|publisher=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com|archiveurl=http://archive.today/SPASJ}}</ref> and later defended saying "Aside from fourteen literally not being pedophilia, their designs are ambiguous. if I see artwork like this I assume that in this specific thing they are older then they are in the series."<ref name="magica2">{{website|url=http://shutthefuckupotherkin.tumblr.com/post/82122180395/unanimously-a-sucker-shutthefuckupotherkin|first=ShutTheFuckUpOtherkin|title=photo|publisher=http://shutthefuckupotherkin.tumblr.com/}}</ref> Draven was 18 years old at the time he made these posts, and the laws in his state define "sexual indecency with a child" as sexual contact between a person who is 18 and a person who is or who is represented to be less than 15 years old.<ref name="arkansascode">{{website|url=http://www.lexisnexis.com/hottopics/arcode/Default.asp|title=A.C.A. § 5-14-110 Sexual indecency with a child|first=Arkansas State Legislature}}</ref>

Most recently, Draven posted an image of the character of {{w|Shinji Ikari}} (14) from the anime {{w|Neon Genesis Evangelion}}<ref>{{website|url=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com/post/89377211710|title=Untitled|first=TheDarkEricDraven|archiveurl=http://archive.today/etazM}}</ref>, and followed it with the comment "I almost think I should start tagging whenever Shinji is in a 02 suit as Zero tmi because embarrassed crossdressing Shinji is so hot".<ref>{{website|url=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com/post/89377284045|title=I almost think I should start tagging|first=TheDarkEricDraven|publisher=http://bloodsuckers-unanimous.tumblr.com|archiveurl=http://archive.today/ntrKe}}</ref> Again, Draven was 18 at the time of these posts.

Zero Rei

Zero Rei is a victim of stalking by Jarandhel.

Controversy

Jarandhel has been stalking Zero for awhile now, convinced they are a pedophile. They have even been banned from other forums for this, but they continue, because they have a really weird grudge/obsession, going as far as to monitor Zero's fetish/nsfw tag on xir blog. Jarandhel, aside from listing several personal details in the name of "watching them", continues to also misgender Zero and attack anyone that defends them xir. It's really pathetic, but what can you do? For someone obsessed with attacking a supposed pedophile, they sure are a creepy old man.
