Everyone needs an identity - "both as a psychological anchor for personal well-being and as a practical tool for interacting with society and the state". Some people get it from work, some people get it from family, some people get it from their dreams, fantasy, computer games ... and many other ways too. Then there are those who wander through life with no identity, no meaning.
Here's an identity for those wanderers.
I am a warrior!
