In 2018, Arfy both wrote and directed The Dackwaller Files, a fan-made film presented as a mockumentary. He entered it into the 2018 Star Wars Fan Awards, under the Long Video category, where it achieved finalist status for the Audience Choice award.
He was a player on the Australian national quidditch team in 2014, and is also credited with inventing wheelchair quidditch back in 2011.
Professionally, Arthur works as a graphic designer. Notably, he redesigned the website for Abel G. Peña in 2009.
His other fan-related endeavors include establishing Star Wars Outsider magazine in 2007, previously serving as an administrator at Wookieepedia under the username Azizlight, and creating costumes (as exemplified by the Jedi costume shown on the right).
On StarWars.com, he goes by the alias "Arf Maul," and on TheForce.net his username is arf_maul.
