Cowen '''"DarkLight93"''' Hames '''is a multi-generation professional gamer who has been actively gaming since August 1997, and peformed Professional Speed Running from August 1997 to August 2012.''' Throughout his career, he has completed 20 projects, obtained '''50''' video game speed-running championships, 13 Global, 1 Continental, 8 Regionals, 3 Nationals, 17 State, and 8 Divisionals. '''He has also obtained over 7,000 World Records for various games.''' He has played '''300''' video games. He is currently recognized as one of the ''greatest'' speed runners of all time, for his absolute 100% devotion to pro-gaming, along with his insane ability to completely control the scoreboards of almost any First Person Shooter. He has been famous in the gaming community for having a unique "gothic/evil" style, instead of the "standard behavior" of a Pro-Gamer, in addition to '''being respectful towards every single gamer regardless of their playing skill'''. Another thing that DarkLight93 has been well-known for is for being a "Crossroad Platformer", which means he has played on all 3 main Video Game Console makers, Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo up until 2012, when he retired from Nintendo on January 1, 2012. '''His current Overall Global Rank on Cyberscore is ''#160''/9,567.''' He is most notorious for 007, Halo, GTA, and Fallout series. '''He has been the World Champion of 007 Nightfire for 4 years'''.''' DarkLight93 was one of the few Veteran Speed Runners still active from the Pre-2000 Era, and is believed to be the last one to retire speed running. '''The current DarkLight93 theme song is Killswitch Engage- End of Heartache. All in all, DarkLight93 is one of the best gamers in history, but also the most controversial one as well. In addition to this, he is also one of the oldest active gamers in the community still playing today, with his total contribution time almost reaching 16 years.'''

Everyone agrees his first domination era was 2008, where he was champion of '''6''' Video Games at the same time'''. In that time, he also ripped apart 007 NightFire, eventually dominating Ben Southward, and forming an Elite Team that went on to completely max out every time in the game by 2011. That is until January 27 2012, when he was champion of 17 games. Since Mid-2008, many have called this the Wave of Darkness, DarkLight93's completely unstoppable First Person Shooter domination era. Around Late 2011/Early 2012 DL started to focus less on Speed Running, and start to convert over to the Competitive Side of gaming, with the goal of sweeping the gaming community under a cloud of Darkness, and to gain numerous championships. In April 2012, DarkLight93 developed a darker and isolated persona than in the past, eventually creating the completely evil clan "WBYD", and attacking major gaming clans, such as KSI, DHG, and even the MLG itself. WBYD backed off of the latter, in Winter '12, and KSI ended their clan war with WBYD around the same time, leaving it at just WBYD against DHG.

One of the best Outstanding Achievements DL has ever accomplished was being World Champion of almost every James Bond Game at the same time starting May 14, 2012. '''NightFire, Agent Under Fire, The World is Not Enough, Everything or Nothing, Rogue Agent, From Russia With Love, and Quantum of Solace'''. Leaving only ''Goldeneye'' and ''Tomorrow Never Dies'' spared.
