Van Darkholme to Mark Wolff in the film Lords of the Lockerroom.

Van Darkholme (Japanese: TDNコスギ Hepburn: TDN Kosugi; VAN様 Van-sama) is an American performance artist, director, photographer, writer, and owner of the VanDarkholme.com website. He was born on October 24, 1964 in Vietnam. He is of Vietnamese descent.

Names

Van is sometimes referred to as VAN様 (VAN-sama, Sir VAN) and ダーク (Dark) by Japanese fans, and 佟 dark 为 (Tong Dark Wei) by Chinese GPW fans. TDN comes from right-handed pitcher and coach for the Ishikawa Million Stars Kazuhito Tadano who's name is commonly abbreviated as TDN. TDN was known for acting in Coat Corporation Co. Ltd's A Midsummer Night's Lewd Dream (Babylon Stage 34: Manatsu no Yo no Inmu: the Imp). Kosugi comes from biracial (part-Chinese) martial arts actor Kane Takeshi Kosugi. His Chinese name come from his resemblance to Chinese actor Tong Dawei.

Another name that GPW fans use for Van is 闇の妖精 (Yami no Yōsei The Dark Fairy), due to his "...deep, dark fantasies." line found in the film 101 Rent Boys and him being an equivalent or counterpart to Billy Herrington (the Forest Fairy).

A third name that Japanese GPW fans use is BONDAGE M@STER (ボンデージマスター), which is both related to his BDSM reputation and his line "...dungeon master...", which was also found in 101 Rent Boys and to the Japanese media franchise The iDOLM@STER. It also refers to the House of Detention film, and is shortened to ボンマス (BONMAS).

In Japanese, Van Darkholme's name is transcribed as Vu~an Dākuhōmu (ヴァン・ダークホーム).

History

During his school life, Van went to elementary school and high school in Kentucky, United States.

During Van's early corporate life he worked in a cubicle all day crunching numbers. It was a terrible working condition to Van. He also held a position as a masseur as a means to pay his rent. With his position, Van had discovered that his massages evoked certain feelings and emotions. This led Van to eventually include bondage into his career.

Van has said that being a Bondage Master himself is very demanding. Both physically and mentally. In his words, Van says that "The art of bondage involves a complex and physical "dance" between master and slave. Often, the process creates a deep intense paternal bond and a sense of acceptance some slaves never experienced in their lives. In the end, it's also very rewarding because master and slave would have created and shared a very intimate connection.".

Through the 1990s, Darkholme was a fashion and photographic model. He also acted in certain films as minor Characterss, such as the Hong Kong films The Adventurers (with Andy Lau) and Who Am I? (with Jackie Chan). It is unknown who Van plays as in Who Am I?, currently.

The most notable Characters out of these two films that Van was acting as was Blackie from Hong Kong action film The Adventurers. Blackie is seen in several scenes. One scene where Blackie slits the throat of uncle Tung with a knife. One scene where his base of operations gets shut down by the rescuers of Mona, including Wai Lok-yan (protagonist) and Paul ("Get up you punk! Back up!"). One scene where Blackie has a SPAS-12 in hand, a bandage on his forehead, uses a hostage as bait, and kills the hostage with his SPAS-12. Finally, another scene where Blackie collides with Wai Lok-yan in his black car. Blackie's final appearance is when he is recovered, but injured from his car crash and yells out to his fellow assassins to get Wai.

On May 20, 1999, possibly, Van created VanDarkholme.com, Van's own blog site that went under many design changes, predictably, over the past 2 decades.

In 2005, Van Darkholme created a book titled "Male Bondage". A photo book that was published by Bruno Gmunder Publishing. Male Bondage was printed 3 times (3rd Editions).

In 2008, Van voluntarily joined the San Francisco-based BDSM studio Kink as a director, who according to Van is the largest BDSM video company in the world. Peter, one of the directors for Kink, impressed Van into joining Kink. During his time at Kink, Van created several websites for it, including Bound Gods, MenOnEdge and 30 Minutes of Pain. Van left Kink in 2017 to focus on his website and also left San Francisco, California to settle down near Charlotte, North Carolina.

He directed and acted in gay pornographic films. Titan Media's 3 Easy Pieces was Van's debut into the pornography industry in 1998. He would later work for Can-Am Productions in films such as Lords of the Lockerroom (his most notable appearance) and House of Detention. He also took part in the Strand Releasing distributed documentary film 101 Rent Boys, where he is shown talking about his background and work as the Dungeon Master.

In Van's own words from working in the adult industry he said, "My people in the adult video business have tried to make me tone down my act. They would say stuff like 'Van, you could make heaps of money with your looks. Just cut out that bondage crap. It turns a lot of people off.' Or they would say things like 'Here are a couple of pornstar websites. See how they just put on a cute act and show lots of dick. And look at yours – don’t bore them with your weird writing and drama.' The only voice I listen to is the voice within me. I may not reach out to a million people but if I can somehow inspire a bit of passion in someone’s life, then that to me is worth a million dollars any day."

He has also performed for KinkMen and Muscle Bound Productions. He also retired from filming in 2017. His last film appearance was Bound Gods Presents Beasts of Bondage.

Van has worked in the BDSM industry for over 20 years. He currently has 15 acres of land to attend to near Charlotte, North Carolina, on which he's built a farm with goats, chickens, and vegetables, as well as a "bondage camp". He quit the industry because he felt that he needed to be re-invented; lest Van wanted to do the same thing over and over again.Today, he wants to build a campground with cabins on his land. His dream is to welcome visitors from all over the world. Stay at his property, listen to his stories, and learn his master/bondage skills.

His favorite fantasy that he often spoke about consisted of the boy-next-door in rope bondage. His signature form of bondage was Shibari, which is Japanese bondage. He is also aware of his fame in Gachimuchi videos and appreciates it.

In summary, Van Darkholme is world-famous for his work and talent. In the western world (USA, Canada, Germany, France, etc), Van is known as the top dom in the leather community, which is a rare feat for an Asian in western society. In Asia (China, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, etc), Van is known for his role in Gachimuchi Pants Wrestling.

Role in Gachimuchi Pants Wrestling

Van Darkholme is one of the main Characterss of Gachimuchi Pants Wrestling. He is often considered to be the antithesis of Billy Herrington. This is often demonstrated in his attack names, which are all named Dark, whereas Billy and other Characterss use Fairy attacks. Van has various techniques, such as Dark Finger, a punch to crotch used to get out of Wolff's Single Yukipo, Dark Air Paizuri, a move where he humps Wolff's chest when on top, and Dark Counter, a kick used as a reversal while getting up.

Outside of wrestling, Van is a highly cruel, depraved dungeon master that tortures his Heike Boys, zapping them with violet wands and making them fight for his amusement.

He also appears as the K-League's adversary, the nefarious Edge Master. After defeating him in combat, Edge Master steals K-Man's power cape and straps him against an electric cage, where he proceeds to sexually assault him with his evil edging technique. With the help of his minion No Mercy, the Edge Master subdues and defeats the entire organization, converting them to the world of kink.

Notable soramimi include "Pretty good for a big mouth.", "Give up?", "Payback's a bitch, man!", "Shut the fuck up, boy!", and "Yeah, yeah, come on, take it boy!".

Van has been portrayed with seemingly supernatural powers, such as teleportation, transformation and enchantment, allowing a key to open a door with his blessing.

3 Easy Pieces

In 3 Easy Pieces, Van is seen masturbating with a good portion of his pants down while wearing a cap backwards in a body shop. He does not hide when the men in the black truck reach the body shop. Van then approaches the men, immediately starting the sex scene.

Lords of the Lockerroom

Main article: Lords of the Lockerroom

In Lords of the Lockerroom, Van is portrayed as a leatherman. Mark knows this and tells him that he entered the wrong building and that there is leather club just 2 blocks south of the gym Van went into. Angered by his request, Van refuses. This prompts Mark to believe Van is a wannabe tough guy and decides to initiate a wrestling match on the mat. Before the match starts, Mark requests Van to get out of his leather outfit, to which Van accepts, albeit annoyed. Ultimately, he is defeated after being put into a sleeping hold by a exhausted Mark. After his defeat, Van wakes up, goes to the shower, masturbates while showering, cums, and never appears in the film again.

101 Rent Boys

Main article: 101 Rent Boys

In 101 Rent Boys, Van Darkholme is #90. He is interviewed and explains his background and why exactly he entered the BDSM scene. He explains to the interviewers that he converted his whole entire house into a dungeon and went under the nickname Dungeon Master, with a full dungeon in his house.

Van later explains the fisting process, including its cost of $300 and lubing up his arm for the purpose of having the fisting feel stimulating for the receiver, for up to 25 minutes.

Van is later seen sitting on the apartment floor reflecting on this aspect of his life and how he began it 3-5 years ago around 1995 or 1997. He then exhales heavily and explains that he feels sad for some unknown reason.

House of Detention

Main article: House of Detention

In House of Detention, Van is the master of his numerous slaves who takes pleasure in abusing slaves, forcing them to do humiliating tasks such as licking someone's foot and getting fucked in the ass. Van demands respect, which is why he reminds a few defiant slaves that he is their master and requests some slaves to raise their voice and thank him. Near the end of the film, the slaves take revenge on Van by binding him to a wooden platform, jacking off onto him, and leaving him tied.

Gay Mafia (Kink.com)

Van is the head of the Gay Mafia, a crime syndicate that deals with troublemakers and homophobes with copious amounts of bondage and anal until they break and realize their homosexuality. They respond to phone call requests with Van and his top men coming to take the miscreant's ass.

Fercussion

Main article: Fercussion

In music videos or just used as background music, Van Darkholme has many musical talents that many people of the Gachimuchi fandom use. But, the one that stands out the most is fercussion. Van's very first line in Lords of the Lockerroom is incredibly and frequently used due to how impressive it sounds and its use as a vocal percussion as the name suggests. Van's later line heard in the film is also heard of frequently as a vocal percussion. Other vocal percussions can be found in House of Detention, Van's Kink.com Studio Interview, the recording session, and nearly all of Van's source videos. Even the music between each section found in House of Detention is used as a musical instrument.

The man insisted that he never had sex with another man nor had any wishes to do so. Barely halfway through Van's bondage session, the man requested that he wanted to be tied up and man-handled.
• Van's bondage career is the only life that he has.
• To Van, a sexy person is someone who is modest, has a good sense of humor, and a youthful curiosity.
• In Van's own words for role modeling advice: "I don’t think that it’s healthy for a person to have just one role model in his life. Then he’ll probably be trying to become a carbon copy of his role model. I think that one should have several role models from whom one can draw inspiration from. And if I’m indeed a role model for the Asian gay community, I would be proud to be a part of that source of inspiration.".
• It is not known what city in Vietnam that Van was born in.
• Van Darkholme has stated that Mark Wolff was a nice and professional wrestler.
• Lords of the Lockerroom, to Van, was a half a day of work and told the director, Ron Sexton, to remove everyone from the set except for the camera men when performing his cum shot because Van was shy and an amateur, contrary to popular belief.
