To be honest the wordtank is crap so it doesn't provide any real explanations in the kanji dict
Thanks for giving me the meaning, I just wish I had a 2 or more kanji word I could use it in
Well your wordtank probably provides some information on it, but as I pointed out, it's extremely rare as a Japanese kanji so it's not really used at all.
Yeah, I've got a few but this one has been bugging me for a while: 自分 (jibun)
It means "self" in various senses of the word, such as myself, him/herself, themselves, I, etc.

David Marc - (katakana) デイビッド マーク
David Marc -(kanji) ?????
anyone?
I agree, but I think it stems from this naturalized Japanese celebrity:How wild! I have never seen the name 'David' transcribed as 'デビト' in my life as a native speaker of Japanese. It's most often written in katakana as 'デービッド', followed probably by 'デイビッド'. But if you know any Japanese, those two are pronounced the same way. 'デビト' would just sound very strange to the native ear.
時 is normally more like "when" or "the time that..." as "point/moment in time or in life." Are you thinking of a particular set phrase it can be put into like "Time flies like an arrow" 「(時、時間はやのように過ぎ去る」...but even that is slightly unnatural.>>「時間と知性の支配者」 would be a choice.
You may just want to use 時（とき） for time. 時 is usually used to represent the concept while 時間 is more like "the time it takes to do something" or "a measure of time".
I would just use the normal 知識 which represents purely awareness /understanding/familiarity of a subject area(s) without overtones of other aspects such as wisdom and intelligence etc. Perhaps 学問 for academic scholarship or learning.Also, 知性 is usually used to describe something. You may want to use 智恵 (ちえ）, which better represents the concept of knowledge.
