Vuorossa Vanha Rotta. Toivon mukaan tästä tulee vähän vetreämpi kuin edellisestä, vaikkei vastaaja taidakaan olla, heh. Oli miten oli, yleisviestinnän vuoksi sanavalmiimpi ja -kykeneväisempi kuin yleensä.
BASICS 1. What is your full name? Do you have a nickname? That's what you want to know? Well, you're paying, so whatever. I got plenty a' names. None of them stick for long, though. Except Old Rat. That always finds its way back.
2. How old are you? When is your birthday? Too damned old. Can't even remember. Old and ragged and can't even remember when it's another year off my life again. Feh.
3. Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic? In a rat pit. You know those things where people bet for which rat guts which first? I was born there. And have a damned ponder if I am.
4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.) Tough rats. Toughest in the pit. A tough rat bitch, and a big, tough male. Ended up killing my sire, I guess. Bit damn hard. I bit back harder.
5. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like? Probably. You just never know in a pit. Just rats. You just care about which ones are going to come at you sooner or later. No siblings, just bigger and smaller.
6. What is your occupation? Sellsword, bounty hunter, killer of men, raider, it's got plenty a' names. You give me money, you point me towards what needs hurting, I hurt it. I stop when the money says so. It's simple. And so damn complicated.
7. How tall are you? How much do you weigh? Getting shorter. That scrapper last fall did a number on the ol' knee. But I still got some bulk, I'm still strong. You laugh and I'll show ya.
8. What color is your hair? What color are your eyes? They said it was reddish, once. That's a human color. Now it's just grayish brown. And I dunno about the eyes. The other's starting to get this... what'dya callit... cataract? Dimming. Can't see so good with it any more.
9. What is your race? A rial, you call us. A big rat. Whatever's fine, don't matter what you call it.
10. To which social class do you belong? Rats still care enough to get out of the way. You humans too, at least when I push a bit. All that matters.
11. Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others? I was big and strong once. Once. Still had my ears unsherred and a nose that actually knew which way to twitch. Now, not so much.
12. What is your style of dress? Some rats think it's horrible, but I got these pelts. They warm the legs nicely.
13. Do you have any scars? Tattoos? Birthmarks? Other unique physical features? Have a damn look. There's more scars than there's skin. Tattoos don't work so good with fur. And I had a pointy nose. Right up until that first hard headbutt. Now I'm just... ragged and torn an' shredded.
14. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses? Age don't come alone. And if ya ask more I'll make sure you won't ever go talking to anyone about any o' this.
15. Are you right- or left-handed? I swing more with the right. Harder strokes. It's still the stronger one.
16. What does your voice sound like? Raspy, sore. It's a rat voice like all, a squeak, but mine's raspy.
17. What kind of vocabulary do you use? I don't need no fancy words. I need simple and solid.
18. List three quirks or other defining characteristics. I'm an old rat and still alive. That's worth three. Hells, it's worth more.
19. How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes? I like hot baths, you know. Used ta hate them after that... thing, but they can do good to the back these days. When I can.
20. What kind of facial expression do you commonly wear (dour glare, wry smile, etc)? They say it's a mad, sour glare. I don't make an effort to put it up.
21. Do you use body language? How? You stomp forward good and take up the ol' mace, they get the message. But really, easier to get the drop if they can't read ya.
22. Do you have a commonly used saying? Don't have much use for those. Five-penny wisdom won't feed ya. Especially since I've never even seen those pennies.
23. What is your earliest memory? Hells. I thought this'd just be that stupid stuff. But it's real stupid stuff. Shit. Well, here ya go. I'm holding a good long switch of wood, there's another small rat doing the same. There's people all around, screaming. Don't care for those. They scream for the kill. Don't care for that either. We both know that only one eats tonight - the other's the meal. I'm hungry, so's the other rat. We go at it. He's mad with hunger, angry, wants to kill. He's crazy with it. But so's I, and I'm bigger. I catch it over the back. Reel back, get smashed again. Hurts all the way to the tail. But I'm still swinging. Right in the ear. He reels, he won't swing. I bash again. And again. And rat brains spill out, steaming. Cheers. I won't go hungry tonight.
24. How much schooling have you had? Did you enjoy it? They taught us to fight each other. To kill. They noticed I was good at it, so they taught me more. I learned the tricks. It got me through alive. Shouldn't complain.
25. Where did you learn most of your knowledge and skill? On the road. Trying not to die. Trying not to bleed out. Trying not to starve. Trying to get into places they didn't want me in. In general, struggling.
26. How would you describe your childhood in general? Didn't have one. Had ta grow up real quick if I wanted to live. Had to get big, had to be strong.
27. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? Didn't think about that. Whelps there didn't. Didn't think, had too much to fear. But sometimes when I wasn't too tired to pass out when they didn't push me around, I wanted out. I got that, soon enough.
28. When and with whom was your first kiss? Rats don't kiss. But... eh. Hell, don't matter if I tell it. Wasn't that old yet. Was this one human. Female. Some bandits. Horny shits. You can see where this' going. I dunno why, just got stuck in. Smashed a few heads, made them run. The stupid thing was so happy, she planted one on the brow. Still don't know why. Dunno what happened to her.
29. Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity? Soon as I could, soon as they saw the good, angry blood in me, they bred more tough rats out a' me. Was still stupid enough to go for it too. Made it a prize.
30. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? Does that affect you? All that was, was in the pit. Don't know about any rats before that. Didn't ask. Nobody cared. I still don't. Dead are dead, they don't matter.
INFLUENCES
31. What do you consider the most important event of your life so far? Who cares. It's all a damn mess anyways. Just a jumbled mess.
32. What do you consider your greatest achievement? Still here. That's damned sad, ain't it? I've killed some things I really shouldn't have managed. Can't remember much of most.
33. What is your greatest regret? Okay, story time. There was one this one raid. I never bothered to find out why. Some small tribe in some backwaters. I figure they were in the way some way. A mine maybe. Something like that. Stubborn idiots shoulda just gone off. Anyhow. I and some other sell dogs go at it, a small army almost. No prisoners, no mercy - no warnings. The first fall easy enough, then they start pushing back. Tough and desperate, got some wounds. Still too strong and big to care. Death and screams. I got these three sellswords with me. I'm hacking at some poor shit, they charge off to something. I finish my kill just in time to hear the screams. A woman, a blade in both hands. Slashing like possessed, screaming. All three die fast. She spots me, charges. Damned fast, stomps up from some boulder, leaps like a storm a' blade down upon me. I don't think, I got my axes. Can't make any sense a' it. I swing, she swings. We collide, an' for a moment I dunno who's dead. Starting to think I'll fall when her belly and mout explode into bloody showers. Her guts follow. I cut her open, she falls like a wet sack. Anyhow, the point. I look her over. She's not young no more. But what's funny, is her face. I expect agony, pain, disbelief, whatever. She just looks content. She had time to feel it, I heard the grunts. And yet she looks happy. Split open and spread around like a damn fish and happy. Thing is, I never did learn why. Maybe if I knew how she'd done that, found something good about it, this could all be easier. But I never did. Never will, likely...
34. What is the most embarrassing or shameful thing ever to happen to you? What? Oh. Uh. Dunno why I'm telling you all this, but whatever. I was supposed to end this one kid once. Damned fool wasn't much older than that one there. Just old enough to actually know some life. Gotten into his stupid head he'd make a great bandit. I was a bit older already. I'm protecting a caravan. We're on a bridge. He's gotten two already, with this rag-tag little band. And now, he's coming at this one. They're paying well for the head. Easy money to snip this one at the bud. And... just no, can't do it. I bash him aside, crack his skull a bit, dash him down into the river. He floats away, probably lived. They laughed at it afterwards, said my money ran away. Think I saw him a while back. Dunno, humans look the same. But had the same scar on his face. Was a miller. A good fat female, a few whelps. Gave me a look. Didn't make anything of it, neither did he. Bought a bread from the woman. Got two for whatever reason. Eh.
35. Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they? Not gonna tell you those. They'd kill me for less than those, and you for hearing them. Suffice to say, you live long enough and do enough, you do and know things you shouldn't.
36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done? That's one a' the secrets.
37. When was the time you were the most frightened? Still want these stupid stories? Fine, run with it. Not long after I ran from the pits. Trying to scratch together enough food to keep walking. Hear they're paying real coin for anyone that can hold a blade. Sounds good. A week later, I'm laying disemboweled in a ditch, in some damn border skirmish. None to help. I pulled my guts back in. Dragged myself out. Dunno how I lived. I shat myself from fear until I had nothing to shit with.
38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where? Every which way, every which day. I returned to that pit only once. There's no pit any more.
BELIEFS
39. What is your alignment? Eh, that's too fancy. I have steel and a strong arm to swing it with.
40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic? Optimists are dead. Pessimists took cover in time. I ain't dead yet, am I?
41. Do you believe in a god? If so, which one and why? I don't play favorites. Never know which one might be listening, do ya? Big Rat don't like that, I bet, but then Big Rat says he's not there for you anyway. I don't kill no holy men if I can help it, it's a big mess any way you slice it.
42. Do you believe in an afterlife? We'll see, won't we? I won't hold my breath.
43. What is your greatest fear? I'm starting to live it. I'm getting old, getting weak. But I don't really fear it any more. I just loathe. Dying, I guess.
44. What makes you angry? Sad? Happy? Why? Fighting. You get angry, you might live through it. Get real angry, you won't care that much about them or their blades. Won't hesitate. And, hell, the whole fact I'm sitting here with goat's milk and actually pondering if my knee's really predicting a storm makes me a sad, pathetic thing.
45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil? People don't care about that. Make of it what you will. Tell you this, though: they see they're going to die, they usually show what they're really like.
46. What are your views on politics? It's complicated. That's one fight I don't wanna get stuck in. They got me once, I still deal with the shit that caused.
47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing? Done all. Gambling don't even hurt anyone. Or lying. Or theft. Killing's what it is. Is my job. Can't complain about that, can I?
48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs? I don't have many. I won't die for them, that's stupid. But others won't be so lucky if I've got the reason.
49. How much do you value money? It puts food in the belly. It patches you up when you're bleeding in a ditch. It opens ways. Doubly for a rat.
50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do? Hells, I don't think about these things. Dunno, I really don't, but tell you this: that fat shit that owned the rat pit when I returned screamed for a long time. They tell me they heard it in the town. It's a two day march there.
51. Do you believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good? No. And that's all that needs to be said.
52. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love? Don't care. Never kept me alive, never got me forward. It's a human thing, you all have too much time and too little to do.
53. Are you superstitious? I don't deal with magic. It never works like it should. If you go up against magic, you either end it quick and well or you get out.
54. How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others? Depends on how much they can back them up. Won't do you much good in this world to be all noble if you won't bleed for it.
55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings? I keep them to myself. They don't help anything.
56. Do you have any biases or prejudices? Healers are good. You respect healers. Nobles are just full of shit. Too much power and money.
DEALING WITH OTHERS
57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why? Eh. People come and go. I don't stay anywhere for long. Remember a few good ones, though. Sometimes I wonder what happened to them. Eh, don't matter I guess.
58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why? Respect's not measured like that. I respect those who earn it through acts. As for despising... I flayed that pit-shit alive with tooth and claw. That enough despising for ya?
59. Do you have a significant other? Who? Why? Take a guess.
60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend? I've had friends, if you can call them that. Many, actually. Not at the same time, mind, they just tend to die. People tend to die in this business. And yet I'm here...
61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex? Never learned to get along with rats, only to make them dead. I get along well enough, I know how things work. They know they shouldn't try anything. It works out.
62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex? Humans have money. I need money. Works out well enough.
63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened. Well... eh. Nah, too many stupid stories already. Move on, just some old rat-babble. What? Really? You really want ta know? Hells, whatever. Was a bodyguard once. Won't say who or what the body was. Stupid enough anyway. Well, anyhow, it dragged on longer than it should have. Much longer. Well... we got close. That's that. I dunno, felt sad to see her go. Just... that's not how it should go. Dunno, that's that. Maybe it was... that. Don't matter, the dead never matter. What? Yeah, died. I couldn't be in two places at once. Died, I went on. No money for me there.
64. What do you look for in a potential lover? Haven't looked for one in a long time. That really don't interest me any more. Back then... eh, any good, big rat bitch was enough for a night.
65. How close are you to your family? Rats don't have families. Killed my sire to live. That's that.
66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children? I probably got plenty a' little whelps and big rats running around. Hell, might have outlived most already. Marriage's your thing, but once I did go for the others. Or tried to, anyway. It didn't go through. Eh, it'd be nice to have some rat bitch to warm the bed. Damned cold these days...
67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict? Never did anyone any good to scream about things. If it's important, I do, don't talk.
68. Are you a listener or a talker? You listen, you learn. You talk, you just make them learn. I listen. I'm alive. It works out.
69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others? Longer than most ever have. I can turn my back to someone, but that don't mean I trust them. You'd be amazed how easy it is to buy someone. I should know, they've bought me plenty a' times.
70. Do you hold grudges? Shouldn't, but... sometimes. I remember things. Sometimes I let them get in the way. Eh, shouldn't.
71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations? Nah. I never was a leader. I can do, I can't tell others to do. But it works out, leaders always get killed first when it goes bad. I live, I get paid, I don't have to think about the hard stuff. Just who to put down. Good enough for me.
72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Nah. Don't need to, I work by myself most a' the time. Easier, I know what to do, don't need somebody to mess it all up. I'll work in a group if need be, but that means professionals.
73. How well do you express yourself? Well enough when needed. I don't leave much room for misunderstandings.
74. How quickly do you judge others? Eh. As soon as I've got reason to. Somebody pulls something stupid, they'll pull it again. That's all there's to it.
75. Do you care what others think of you? If they're paying. Don't matter otherwise, they don't matter.
76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy? Too many. Too damned many. Someone always springs up from somewhere. Fools should just let it be, I don't care about them.
PERSONAL TASTE AND OPINIONS
77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession? I spent much of the time I've got maintaining the equipment. Sharpen the axe, make sure the mace's all good and the handle's holding, stuff like that. And practicing. Been thinking about picking something up. You know, a hobby. Eh, it'd fill some empty space. Less time to get all gloomy. You know... been thinking about trying to learn some smithing. Working metal. Certainly know what makes a good blade, it'd be nice to make them too. Might get some coin outta it. Just needs a forge, I guess. Eh, and I like smoked fish. Cheese if You've got any. As for possessions. Well, don't got many. Most come and go. Weapons break, sometimes you leave stuff behind. But I got my mace right here, still. First real weapon I had. It's broken sometimes. And it's got no flanges or spikes or anything any more, just a big banged ball of iron. But it never lets me down. Carries through.
78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment? Eh, dont' care too much 'bout those. Listen to music if there's any, sometimes like it. And a big statue's impressive always. But... nah, not for me.
79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not? Hells, I hope I could. Godsdamned guts can't hold any booze these days. One good swig and I'm squatting outside. And... well... don't really care for the bitches, like I said. I got some panhajab bark here. Nice to chew, relaxes, dulls. Can't do that often, can't slip up like that.
80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night? Like all the others.
81. What is your most cherished fantasy? Living the rest a' my years alone and out a' the way, in a nice little place with a good hot fire and a fat rat bitch to warm the bed. A fat belly, weapons in some forgotten chest. All that. Ain't fancy, and yet I'm never going to get it. Hell.
82. How long is your attention span? I'm alive, right? Long enough to get me through the day.
83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny? Eh. I hear jokes sometimes. I even get them once in a while. Sometimes they're funny. But... I don't really do that a lot.
84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what? Can't rightly say. Seen enough, it all loses meaning after a while. Hell, done enough too. Not as such.
85. How do you deal with stress? I carry on. Nothing else to it, you shrug it off, you move on. Or you collapse and die.
86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic? I've lived all my life fighting. I'd be dead if it wasn't enough. And... eh, I once piled rocks. Looked nice enough.
87. Do you like animals? Do you like children? Annoying shits, the whelps. Both rat and human. But at least they run when you growl. Animals, they're harder. Go down with a good hit, but they're still nasty. Got mauled by a bear once. Got the scars, too.
88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan? Spontaneous gets you killed. You rush out there, you get gutted. You'll need some plan always.
89. Do you have a pet? If so, what is his/her name? Species? Fur color? Etc… See that thing outside? That beast? Yeah, it's a pony, don't let that fool ya. That thing'll kill ya. Angry bastard. Didn't get it, as much as they just threw it at me. Can't get me running, can't scream me down. Eh, at least it pulls a cart, won't have to walk always.
SELF-IMAGE
90. What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness? Still alive, so haven't rushed to my death yet. And still, I can be too passive. Sometimes.
91. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I'd be ten years younger. Just a few damn years. Hell, just a bit younger'd be good.
92. Are you generally introverted or extroverted? Keep to myself. Other's don't need ta know my things. They're mine.
93. Do you like yourself? Have a fucking laugh and ask again.
94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted? Much as I can. Helps maintenance, helps practice. Helps to remember everything. Can't even remember thing so well any more...
95. What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime? I just... want to make my mark. You know, not die quiet and unnoticed. Make them remember I damn well lived.
96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? Honestly? Could be dead tomorrow. Hells, you could try to pull a knife on me right now. You'd probably die, but yeah. Could be dead any day, can't think that far. Just have to get through it all.
97. If you could choose, how would you want to die? In a bed. In my sleep. Some nice summer day curled up near a warm fire. Painless, quick, merciful. Won't happen.
98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death? Just... be remembered. Some way, through something.
99. What three words would you use to best describe your personality? I'm still alive.
100. What three words would others probably use to describe you? Old ragged rat.
101. Why are you risking your life to adventure? Hell, don't got much choice. I slow down, I die. So is that it? We done? Good. Now pay up and piss off. Don't feel like staring at your face any longer. Just remember you had this talk. Remember it, put it up somewhere. Hell, no sense in some damn questions otherwise, right?

Hmmh, ja Iksaan vuoro uudelleen, tällä kertaa toivottavasti kunnollisesti. Standard rules apply, rotta tuskin puhuu kuten oikeasti puhuu, vaan suunnilleen luonteenomaisesti ja niin että vastauksia jopa tulee.
BASICS 1. What is your full name? Do you have a nickname? Oh, uh, I'm Iksaa. Iksaa... Ratspear. I picked that last one. But please don't tell that to anyone or they'll whack me...
2. How old are you? When is your birthday? Not that old. I ain't a whelp, but not that old. I think it was in winter, it was cold. It's cold in winter, right? You know?
3. Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic? In the nest? I can't remember but rats are born in nests. Or most rats, anyway. I think I was born in a nest. Maybe?
4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.) My mom! Mom was big and fat and nice! And then she swatted me on the head and told me to go away... I dunno about a dad. I think it's supposed to be that big rat, but I dunno, don't think it was. Never felt it was.
5. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like? Uh, no. Was the only one. That's weird and stupid. Others had whelps to grow up with. They just said I'm weird.
6. What is your occupation? I'm a ratherd! I herd rats, see! I'm good at it! And I like it! I like rats too! You like rats? I like rats.
7. How tall are you? How much do you weigh? I'm pretty goodly big. For a rat. Humans are taller, but I'm big anyway!
8. What color is your hair? What color are your eyes? It's... fur color. Brown, right? Some say it's red, but that's not real color. It's a trick, you know? A human trick!
9. What is your race? I sometimes race giant rats. They're pretty fast, you know? Oh wait, I get it, I'm a rat! Why'd you ask it like that? It's confusing.
10. To which social class do you belong? Uhh... I don't really... I mean... I think they don't really like me...
11. Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others? Um. What'dya mean? Oh, like... like that. Uh... no...
12. What is your style of dress? Rats don't wear rags, right? I dunno why humans do. Well, I do, they're kinda naked and furless, but I dunno why. But... but I got this armband! See, I took it from a man! He's dead since I stabbed him. But he stabbed me first so it's alright!
13. Do you have any scars? Tattoos? Birthmarks? Other unique physical features? Yeah, see, plenty scars! I got this and this and this! These are from rats! Got this since I fell over and hit a rock, though... but mostly from rats! I got many scars so I'm a good ratherd, right? Right!
14. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses? Uhh... I dunno. Eating those tiny little berries makes me feel weird. But I think they make others feel weird too so it's not my fault!
15. Are you right- or left-handed? I dunno really. My right is my grabby-paw, though.
16. What does your voice sound like? Um, it's nothing special, I think? It's just a voice, right? A rat voice.
17. What kind of vocabulary do you use? Whattanow? Oh, right. Uh... I dunno, simple?
18. List three quirks or other defining characteristics. I'm a good ratherd! And... um... they don't really like me and... uh... that's two. I ate a pebble once. Is that okay?
19. How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes? I uh... I wash. Sometimes I use water if I'm really dirty. But water's for drinking really so that's weird.
20. What kind of facial expression do you commonly wear (dour glare, wry smile, etc)? I don't have a face so... I think I look pretty normal.
21. Do you use body language? How? Eh... I dunno. I don't really get those things... I tried but... I dunno how they always know what to do. I dunno.
22. Do you have a commonly used saying? Not really, I guess... Um, I dunno. I don't really... think what I say.
23. What is your earliest memory? Mom! I remember mom! Mom was big and good and safe and warm! And then she didn't like me any more... Said I was too big and I needed to do stuff... but I didn't wanna...
24. How much schooling have you had? Did you enjoy it? I learned to ratherd! I got really good, too. I herd rats real well and all the time! Well, I used to, now I just have Gruut. But I'm still a really good ratherd!
25. Where did you learn most of your knowledge and skill? Living, really. I mean... you learn things living, right? Didn't really think about it that much, I just kinda... learned what was useful.
26. How would you describe your childhood in general? Um... my childhood? Uh... ehh, I think I did it wrong... didn't really understand how rials worked and... and that's stupid. I found the rats, though, and things got better. They thought I'd die since the rats were big and angry and I was small but I... didn't. I just... got it. I just knew what to do with them and then they didn't think I was all worthless any more. I think.
27. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? Dialk! I wanted to be Dialk, since Dialk is the biggest and best ratherd ever! But they just said I couldn't be since only Dialks are Dialks and I was Iksaa. But... I think I could still be! Um... don't tell anyone I said that.
28. When and with whom was your first kiss? Um... I don't think... Rats don't really... do that.
29. Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity? I uh... well... yes but... but I tried! And... and it didn't really work and... but I mean, I tried! I had a plan and all! See, there was Bulga, he was a warrior and everybody liked him. And there was, uh, a pretty bitch he wanted. And, um, I thought I'd be better if I got that bitch instead and... um... it kinda worked but... eh... um... I kinda... ran away screaming. It was scary, she was a girl!
30. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? Does that affect you? I dunno, I don't think I do. Umm, should I? I mean, I don't really know my dad so maybe but... eh, I dunno.
INFLUENCES
31. What do you consider the most important event of your life so far? I found the rats! And they were real nice and everything got a lot better! Or... or maybe when I left home and ran away? Is that alright? That's bad, isn't it? Shouldn't say that, they might hear...
32. What do you consider your greatest achievement? Gruut! I raised Gruut since they said I was supposed to since I was a ratherd! I took the biggest whelp I could find and then I raised it big and strong! And I named it Gruut since that's a big, strong name to make it even stronger. And now he's a big, fat, smart rat! I did good, didn't I? Yeah, I did pretty good.
33. What is your greatest regret? Umm... sometimes I think I maybe shouldn't have left. It's kinda scary sometimes. But I dunno, not really. I try not to have any, regretting isn't nice. I hit Spyro once and that was bad but... he was alright so it's not that bad! It was still pretty bad though...
34. What is the most embarrassing or shameful thing ever to happen to you? I grabbed one of those small spiny worms once. I was real small so I didn't really know, but you really shouldn't do that! It really, really, really hurt and I was hairless for a long time and my skin went all blistery and it was really bad and they made fun of it...
35. Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they? Um, don't tell Gruut, but I ate that one porkchop that was actually his and... oh, not like that. I don't know, maybe they're really secret and I don't know either? Except that one thing, but that's a secret so you can't know it...
36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done? Oh, uh, I think it's the knife. Yeah, it's the knife. But that was an accident and I didn't know what would happen and I would have died otherwise! But it's still my fault...
37. When was the time you were the most frightened? I once thought Gruut died. But Gruut can't die! So he didn't and it was fine. And I thought that Spyro... got hurt bad, but Spyro's tough too!
38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where? Yeah, I travel all around all the time. I don't really ever stop, either. Well, I do to eat and sleep and do stuff, but you not, you know, for a long time. I just wanna see all around and what's what. I've been to all kinds of places, too! Some were nice.
BELIEFS
39. What is your alignment? Um, somebody told me I'm "khaotekguut". Is that a good one... I mean I can change if it isn't!
40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic? I think that everything will turn out well if you just stick with it long enough. Eh, sometimes the world doesn't agree but... but I'd like to think it's still true. You know?
41. Do you believe in a god? If so, which one and why? Well, there's the... wait... four of course! I kinda like Issa, Issa's a good one and that almost sounds like Iksaa. But we had this boulder near the camp and they always said there was a god inside, so I think I believed in that one, too. They always painted it good and made it smell real nice in the summer. Look, I took a bit of it when I left! Maybe there's some god in there, too... But I don't think it's actually doing anything...
42. Do you believe in an afterlife? They say you have to get eaten to die well. I ate somebody once so I think he died well...
43. What is your greatest fear? Dying is pretty bad. But I think if I die, I won't really feel anything after so... I really don't want to see Gruut die.
44. What makes you angry? Sad? Happy? Why? Um, I'm angry when something bad happens. Or sad maybe. That's how it works, I think. And good things make me feel happy, like when I found a really tasty crab once. I made a little thing from the shell too!
45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil? I don't know, people are pretty bad... I think I shouldn't think too much about them, they hurt my head. But rats are always good! You just gotta know how to pole them! With a stick!
46. What are your views on politics? Ehh... I don't like tics. They make you itchy and suck blood and all that. Dunno what "poli" is, but it's probably even nastier...
47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing? Umm, a life's a life. I think the other things aren't that bad but you shouldn't kill unless you need to. Or... someone else needs to. I mean, I helped a few people since some others were being nasty to them and those others died but... but they were bad men! It's a good thing then, right? Isn't it?
48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs? That depends, right? I mean, I believe you shouldn't eat seeds since they might grow up inside you but... I don't think I need to really fight for that, right? I don't think you should hurt anyone for something like that stuff anyway, though!
49. How much do you value money? Money's useful. You can get things with it, right? But... it's still just metal in the end. Not worth all the stupid things people do for it.
50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do? Hum... I think killing things you don't need to kill is pretty bad. I mean... they die if you do that!
51. Do you believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good? What kind of good are we talking about? Greater than what? If it's really great... well, I think you should do something for it, right? Right.
52. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love? Don't really know what that is, but I've never seen it so it's probably not important. What's a soul anyway?
53. Are you superstitious? I dunno, but I do know you just shouldn't do some things. I mean, nothing might happen but what if it does? Should't risk it!
54. How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others? If they respect mine, I won't have a problem with them. Unless they're doing something to rats, then that's bad!
55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings? Well, I... don't really think about what I say too much. So... I think I tell them what I feel, too. Sometimes at least. Is that a bad thing? Maybe I shouldn't? Right? Yes, no, maybe?
56. Do you have any biases or prejudices? Umm, humans are pretty weird so you should probably watch them. Unless they're Spyro, but that's different! Spyro's like... a weird human. So it's all fine, really! I think weird humans might be better. But humans are weird so... maybe Spyro just was a not-weird human? Ehhh...
DEALING WITH OTHERS
57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why? Um, Gruut's important! He's always there and he's a big and smart rat! Well... he's usually somewhere around. Sometimes he runs off though. But it's fine since he comes back too!
58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why? I dunno, Dialk is a good rather so that's good, right? I don't really... know a lot of people or rats or anything...
59. Do you have a significant other? Who? Why? Not really... I just move around with Gruut so I don't really know anybody that well...
60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend? No. But I think Spyro's something like a friend, right? Oh, and then there was that cat but I can't remember her name. She didn't hate me, at least... There was a man with her, a really big man, but I didn't like that one. He didn't like me, either...
61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex? Umm... I don't really get rials. I mean, rials have all the rules and... they just know them. I don't know any and I'm a rial! I dunno how it works... They usually end up telling me to go away or something. I usually go anyway...
62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex? Humans are pretty weird too, but I think they have less rules. I mean, they're weird but at least they're easy weird. Rials are really weird-weird! But giant rats are fine! I get them. Dunno why, they're just... easy. And girls are scary!
63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened. Ummm... no.
64. What do you look for in a potential lover? But... but girls are scary and... oh... well... I guess a big rat is a good rat. And... um... girls are scary...
65. How close are you to your family? I liked my mom, but then she swatted me away since I was big. But that's normal right? I mean, every rat gets swatted away and... but I really hope she wouldn't have...
66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children? Nnnno. Those are... complicated and I don't think they really work if you move around all the time and... marriage is a human thing and... um.
67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict? I don't really like confu... arguing but I guess you sometimes have to. But only if you're right because it's stupid otherwise!
68. Are you a listener or a talker? I can do both, I guess. Just not at the same time, that's hard! But I can herd many rats at once, though! All the rats!
69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others? I don't know, usually things turn bad before that happens... Um, long enough that I find them trustworthy? Oh... is that a stupid answer? Umm... I trusted Spyro pretty quickly but... that's different though!
70. Do you hold grudges? No, I hold a spear. Oh, wait, that's not what... um, I don't think I do. Can't really remember holding any. Probably not, then!
71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations? Over rats, yeah! I'm a good ratherd, see! I know how to make rats do stuff! But not otherwise... I don't really know how to work with rials or humans or such so...
72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Umm, no. It just gets all the more confusing and I can't do it and... and I kinda run away screaming all over again...
73. How well do you express yourself? Not well. I just can't really get them to... get me, you know? I dunno what I do wrong, I just... it just doesn't work...
74. How quickly do you judge others? You can usually tell something about somebody pretty quick, right? I can at least. Probably if they're good or bad. That's pretty easy.
75. Do you care what others think of you? Not really, unless there's some reason. I mean, they don't really matter and I don't get most anyway. But... if they're important somehow. I dunno, Spyro said things I listened to. And that one cat.
76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy? Not really... although I think they really didn't like it when I took Gruut and a spear and ran away... But I really hope they're not my enemies anyway...
PERSONAL TASTE AND OPINIONS
77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession? Well, I play with Gruut a lot. Or not play, exactly. More like... trying to make Gruut not eat anyone or something like that. And I kinda like purple, since it's not a real colot unlike these "reds" and "greens". And smoked fish is nice. I have a spear, but... uhh... it always gets lost so I have another. So I don't think the spear's my favorite... I have that stone from the god-boulder so that might be a good one! It's pretty, too! And... I had my knife but then it went bad and... it's not a good thing any more.
78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment? Umm, arts are pretty... pointless, really. I mean, I dunno why they're important. They don't really... help anything. Although I guess the god-boulder looked pretty when they painted it. Eh, is that a thing? Boulder-painting? I like that.
79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not? Well, I... tried a few things. Some of them felt good but then they said they cost a lot of money. And I didn't have any money and then they made me feel bad anyway. But wine's good, if you only drink a bit. Then it feels nice. Feels bad if you drink a lot.
80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night? What's a saturday? Anyway, I guess like every other day? Days are just days, right? I mean, if it rains I'm under a tree and if it's sunny I'm not and stuff like that.
81. What is your most cherished fantasy? Humh... I kinda wanna be Dialk. Dialks are good ratherds! Or... or I want to be as good. But that's dumb since you can't be as good as Dialk if you're not Dialk. Can you? That's how names work, right?
82. How long is your attention span? I guess pretty good since I'm a good ratherd and watch after the rats! Only... sometimes I see something and it's all shiny and I might not notice something. But... but I'm still a good ratherd! Really!
83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny? Rats don't laugh like humans. Or at human thing. Um, but I think some bugs are funny! Like that one that goes in circles! Umm... oh, that's not really funny, is it?
84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what? When they try to hurt rats, it's bad... Or when somebody tries to kill me. That's pretty bad, too.
85. How do you deal with stress? Stress isn't good. I really don't like stress, but I have Gruut here. Gruut always helps, like all giant rats. They don't care at all! So you know, why should I? It's pretty simple, really.
86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic? I can run really well and wrestle giant rats! I showed you the scars, right? Look, scars! A lot of scars means I'm a big and strong ratherd and they can't eat me! I once lifted a big buck up, too! See the scars!? Oh, and I think I can draw a circle. It was pretty round, too.
87. Do you like animals? Do you like children? Yeah, animals are good! Giant rats are really good, but most animals I get anyway. Somewhat, at least. Lizards are a bit weird.
88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan? Well, uhh... I think I should plan ahead but... sometimes I just do something. Not good for me, though. I got less nice scars from that.
89. Do you have a pet? If so, what is his/her name? Species? Fur color? Etc… Gruut's not a pet! Gruut's a big strong rat! Pets are small and puny and made of fat and fluff! Gruut's a big strong muscly tough-rat! But anyway, he's kinda... brown. Most rats are, right? He's big and fat and strong and angry. See the buggly eyes, that means he's smart! He bites stuff and isn't afraid of anything! He's my rat!
SELF-IMAGE
90. What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness? Umm... I'm a really good ratherd. I dunno how much that helps but I can herd ALL the rats!
91. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I dunno, maybe I'd like to... understand other rials. But then I might not understand rats any more and... I don't think I wanna not understand rats. Oh, I know! I'd be better so I'd have a better name!
92. Are you generally introverted or extroverted? Wha? Umm... I... think a lot?
93. Do you like yourself? I like rats and I'm a really good ratherd so... it's alright, right? I mean... I'm not a bad rat but... I think there's something wrong with me. They think so too...
94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted? Not really. I get up and I walk a lot and I eat. Sometimes I have to fight or make sure Gruut doesn't eat a kitten or something. Unless nobody's around. Kittens have soft bones so it's fine!
95. What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime? That's... hum... eh, that's hard. I don't really... think that far. Six months is like... uh... I only got four fingers. That's a... paw and... half a paw. I dunno, I hope I do something good. Like... see a lot of things and stuff. And I hope I'll be at least a bit more than an Iksaa...
96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? I dunno. It's so far away... maybe I'm still alive then ? Or something?
97. If you could choose, how would you want to die? Umm... I dunno, quick and painless? Maybe when I'm sleeping. But I want somebody to eat me afterwards! Maybe Spyro, since he's skinny and needs the meat. And Gruut too so he won't feel lonely all alone!
98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death? Just being remembered would be good but... I think I want to be a really good ratherd. So good everybody knows!
99. What three words would you use to best describe your personality? Three... three... a really good ratherd!
100. What three words would others probably use to describe you? Eh... I dunno. Maybe they think I'm a really good ratherd too? Except... they probably won't. They think I'm... a really bad rat or something...
101. Why are you risking your life to adventure? If I stayed, nothing would have changed. I dunno if anything will change now, but... it might. I don't wanna be just a bad Iksaa...

Late 30s. I’m not going to answer the other question.
3. Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic?
In the kingdom of Sedestia. I have a home there, in the capital Friesburg, but I rarely go there. I am not particularly patriotic.
4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.)
Sebastian and Leliah Terr, my father was a hunter and my mother took care of the children. Both were people who upheld old beliefs.
5. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?
Reinhart and Theo. Last I heard Reinhart had become a priest, and Theo a soldier. They are nothing special.
6. What is your occupation?
A hunter of sorts. Some would call me a bounty hunter, but I hunt a lot more than just people.
7. How tall are you? How much do you weigh?
190 cm or close to it, I weigh quite a bit, but it’s mostly muscle, don’t ask me how much. Haven’t really gone ahead and weighed myself.
8. What color is your hair? What color are your eyes?
Dark brown and light brown.
9. What is your race?
Human.
10. To which social class do you belong?
None, really, as I tend to live on the outskirts of regular society, but I have had audiences with Sedestia’s high and mighty fairly often. I am wealthy though, so maybe technically upper class.
11. Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others?
I do not care about that.
12. What is your style of dress?

It has been described as gravelly.
17. What kind of vocabulary do you use?
Curt and to the point.
18. List three quirks or other defining characteristics.

Not really.
INFLUENCES
31. What do you consider the most important event of your life so far?
When I was around ten, I was out gathering firewood when a wolf appeared. It was slightly injured, and thin. Obviously hungry, and separated from its pack. It attacked me. I killed it with one of the sticks I had been gathering. That inspired me to become a hunter.
32. What do you consider your greatest achievement?
I have yet to achieve my greatest goal, but so far I’d say the slaying of the beast of Gradspiel.
33. What is your greatest regret?
Not managing to kill the old dragon Spartacus, before that whelp Cain did it. I will hunt him down for that.
34. What is the most embarrassing or shameful thing ever to happen to you?
The same thing I answered to the last question.
35. Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they?
Not really.
36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
How do you define evil? Although I guess when I once beat a man half to death in front of his family was a bit despicable, even if he had a bounty on him.
37. When was the time you were the most frightened?
A long time ago, before I had even become a true hunter yet. I was hunting a bear that had been killing livestock, and it noticed and attacked me before I managed to attack it. I survived, the bear didn’t, but I haven’t really been afraid after that. I have learned to suppress that emotion.
38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where?
I have done that often, although mostly they have been short trips. Now I am embarking on a longer trip when I’m hunting Cain. I hear he is going to Myrksea, so that’s where I’m headed too.
BELIEFS
39. What is your alignment?
I don’t believe in such things. ((Neutral at best, evil more likely))
40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic?
Optimistic. I always catch my prey eventually.
41. Do you believe in a god? If so, which one and why?
I believe in the god of the hunt, the Great Kochov. My family has always believed in the old gods of our nation, and as a hunter, it is natural for me to serve the god of the hunt.
42. Do you believe in an afterlife?
Maybe there is one, maybe there isn’t. Not something I bother myself with.
43. What is your greatest fear?
*laughs* Nothing. I fear nothing. *stops laughing* Although I guess I fear I won’t kill a beast as mighty as a dragon before I die, but a death in battle with a dragon would be a grand enough death for it to not matter.
44. What makes you angry? Sad? Happy? Why?
Cain makes me angry. He is a complete failure, yet he managed to slay a dragon – and to top it all off, became a dragon. My son and daughter make me happy, they will become good people, high in the society thanks to my efforts.
45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil?
Don’t care about that.
46. What are your views on politics?
Don’t care.
47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing?
Thieves are useless dimwits, gamblers waste their lives and money, don’t care about lying, and I’m a killer.
48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs?
Far enough to kill.
49. How much do you value money?
Not much. It is something I have.
50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?
Killing small defenceless children.
51. Do you believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good?
No.
52. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love?
No.
53. Are you superstitious?
No.
54. How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others?
If they do not conflict with mine, I respect them.
55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings?
Honest.
56. Do you have any biases or prejudices? Other bounty hunters are worthless.
DEALING WITH OTHERS
57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
My son. Sometimes I regret not having much choice in my life, and my son will have all the choices he wants to have.
58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why?
I respect Sedestia’s current king, Occam 3rd, he is a good king. He also doesn’t think too highly of the leaders of Sedestia’s dominant religion. I despise Cain, and how he despite his worthlessness killed the only dragon in Sedestia.
59. Do you have a significant other? Who? Why?
My wife, Anna. Our marriage was one of convenience, but I do care for her.
60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend?
I do not have a lot of friends, but I have plenty of contacts. My only real friend is the alchemist Hargoth.
61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex?
Indifferently.
62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex?
Indifferently, although I do try to challenge powerful beings whenever I run across them.
63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
I have not been completely in love, but I guess you could describe the feelings between me and my wife as love.
64. What do you look for in a potential lover?
I don’t look for one.
65. How close are you to your family?
Somewhat close, I am rarely at home and thus see them rarely. But we all care for each other, and I love both of my children.
66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?
I have all of those already.
67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
I avoid unnecessary ones, but am ready to start them if necessary.
68. Are you a listener or a talker?
I listen.
69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others?
Not too long.
70. Do you hold grudges?
Yes.
71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
If I deem it necessary.
72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people?
Depends. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t.
73. How well do you express yourself?
Well.
74. How quickly do you judge others?
As quickly as I can.
75. Do you care what others think of you?
No.
76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?
Cain. I have already explained why.
PERSONAL TASTE AND OPINIONS
77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession?
I love a good fight, and my many trophies.
78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?
Bards are sometimes pleasant to listen to.
79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?
I have a pipe I smoke sometimes, and I drink sometimes. It helps me relax after a hunt.
80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
Tracking down my current prey.
81. What is your most cherished fantasy?
Finally killing a dragon. To be honest, I’d prefer it if it was some other lizard than Cain, he is such a failure it would be not much of an achievement.
82. How long is your attention span?
Long.
83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny?
I rarely laugh, but sometimes my targets offer such pitiful resistance it is hilarious.
84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what?
Killing children. It is immoral and also the act of a coward.
85. How do you deal with stress?
I rarely get stressed out, but when I do usually smoking tanga leaves relaxes me.
86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic?
I am very athletic, but not much of an artistic.
87. Do you like animals? Do you like children?
I find some animals majestic, like bears. I don’t actually care much for most children.
88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
I always have a plan, but I can be spontaneous if I need to be.
89. Do you have a pet? If so, what is his/her name? Species? Fur color? Etc…
Don’t have one. Maybe I should tame a wolf.
SELF-IMAGE
90. What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness?
Being relentless.
91. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would not change anything.

Killing a dragon.
96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?
I have not planned for anything that far in the future, though I hope to have retired 20 years from now.
97. If you could choose, how would you want to die?
Either in battle with a beast, or surrounded by grandchildren and children, hard to say.
98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death?
For being the greatest hunter there is.

Dangerous, relentless and terrifying.
101. Why are you risking your life to adventure?
To slay creatures worth slaying, and to provide a good life for my children.

Uusi tulokas Kvar vastailee. Vaikkei ole vielä ollut edes pelissä. Enkä ole vieläkään tehnyt Cainille sopivaa. No, eivoimitn.
BASICS 1. What is your full name? Do you have a nickname?
I am Kvar'zha Ra'phreg! ...humans usually call me Kvar.
2. How old are you? When is your birthday?
34. I was born on the third day of the Blood Moon ((fire kobolds have weird names for months))
3. Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic?
I was born in Drache Loche, the volcanic mountaint that is home to most of our race. I have a home there, but I'm a traveller for now. I do not know if patriotic is the correct word, I am loyal to my race - but not so much to the Iron King, the king of Sedestia, who technically also rules over Drache Loche. Only technically. The human has no power over us, though I guess we did help him get his throne. His creepy mage ally convinced our lord somehow - glad that guy's dead nowadays...
4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.)
My father, Tazch'zha, was a soldier - sadly he died during Sedestia's civil war, killed by forces loyal to the old king. My mother, Len'kchack, leads an educational center. She is rather sad nowadays, due to my father's death - but she is nobleborn, and keeps her sorrow private. ((nobleborns = the bigger fire kobolds))
5. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?
I have two elder brothers, the most stuck up lizards you'll ever meet. Also two sisters from the same hatching as me, they are nice, and they protected me from my elder brothers jests when I was but a whelp, what with them being nobleborn like mother.
6. What is your occupation?
I am a Seeker! It is a great honor, it means I have a sacred mission to find the bearer of the Serpent Amulet - and give him an invitation to come to Drache Loche, and also a special gift of sorts.
7. How tall are you? How much do you weigh?
Around one-and-a-half meters, but I do not know how much I weigh. ((a bit over 100 kgs - fire kobolds are made of heavier stuff than humans))
8. What color is your hair? What color are your eyes?
I do not have hair - but my horns and thorns are bone white. My eyes are red and black.
9. What is your race?
Humans call us fire kobolds or greater kobolds.
10. To which social class do you belong?
I am not quite on the bottom rung, maybe middle class? I do not know if that is the correct human equivalent.
11. Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others?
Amongs my kind, I'm not that attractive. Not ugly either, though. If I had bigger horns, I'd be more than decent enough... bah.
12. What is your style of dress?
Rather simplistic, usually a black tunic. Of course I also have my belt, a gift from my lord when I was sent on my mission.
13. Do you have any scars? Tattoos? Birthmarks? Other unique physical features?
I have red stripes on my snout...? Does that count? It's not really a rare quality amongst my kind, but I suppose it makes it easier for humans to recognize me?
14. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?
I am allergic to certain mushrooms.
15. Are you right- or left-handed?
Righthanded.
16. What does your voice sound like?
I've heard humans describe my voice as 'creepy'. I don't know what that means.
17. What kind of vocabulary do you use?
Varied vocabulary, although I guess I don't really know all the terms humans use - and our kind does have our own language too, that's different from the one usually used by humans.
18. List three quirks or other defining characteristics.
Umm... I tend to have a somewhat laxing attention span. Hmm. I really don't know what humans would consider 'quirky', as my kind and humans are so different perfectly normal behaviour for us may seem utterly bizarre for humans - and the other way around.
19. How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes?
Not that often. Perfumes would be pointless, since I don't have a good sense of smell.
20. What kind of facial expression do you commonly wear (dour glare, wry smile, etc)?
Humans declare my basic expression as 'smug grin'. It is not a smug grin. *pouts*
21. Do you use body language? How?
Nothing humans would notice. I tend to hit the ground with my tail in rapid succession when I get real happy, that's one humans usually notice.
22. Do you have a commonly used saying?
Not really. I do tend to wonder at how humans go about doing things.
23. What is your earliest memory?
My sisters hugging me. I think it was after my elder brothers had done something nasty.
24. How much schooling have you had? Did you enjoy it?
Somewhat more than the standard amount our kind gets. I did enjoy it, our kind usually enjoys increasing our knowledge.
25. Where did you learn most of your knowledge and skill?
I learnt most of my knowledge about the world, literacy and so on in the educational facility my mother lead, and I learn to fight first through the lessons my father gave me, and later by the Seeker trainers.
26. How would you describe your childhood in general?
Happy, and humans would probably consider it rather long. But our society is more family-oriented than yours and we live longer lives anyway. 27. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Bigger! Then later when I started thinking more rationally, I wanted to become a diplomat or something that goes out in to the world. And now I'm a Seeker, so wish granted!
28. When and with whom was your first kiss?
I haven't really had anything other than kisses given from sibling or maternal love. And I'm unlikely to get much more, what with our kind having far less females than yours.
29. Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity?
Yes, I am a virgin. And as I said, probable to stay one, I am not great paternal material so it is likely I'll stay one.
30. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? Does that affect you?
My grandfather was one of the key figures in developing the idea of Seekers. I hope I can make him happy, now that I am one.
INFLUENCES
31. What do you consider the most important event of your life so far?
When I was made a Seeker, and got to meet my lord.
32. What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Umm... The same thing as the last question? Aren't these two questions almost the same?
33. What is your greatest regret?
Don't really have any!
34. What is the most embarrassing or shameful thing ever to happen to you?
When I was younger, my elder brothers tricked me into running into a shop naked. My sisters beat them up for that later.
35. Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they?
Not really. Except the secrets all our kind has! And I'm not telling those!
36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
Uh, I don't know. We don't really have the same moral compass as humans do, so I wouldn't even really know what you'd consider one.
37. When was the time you were the most frightened?
When meeting my lord, he is after all [REDACTED]. ((secretsssss relating to plot-plans))
38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where?
Yes, right now I'm heading to this area near this place called Myrksea Castle. Supposedly the bearer of the Serpent Amulet is somewhere there.
BELIEFS
39. What is your alignment?
What? ((Neutral something or at best chaotic good))
40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic?
Optimistic.
41. Do you believe in a god? If so, which one and why?
Those are private matters, not going to talk about that!
42. Do you believe in an afterlife?
Sort of. It is complicated.
43. What is your greatest fear?
Uhhh... Seeing my sisters and mother die? Possibly also seeing my brothers die. As a whole, our race doesn't get afraid of much.
44. What makes you angry? Sad? Happy? Why?
Learning new things makes me happy, knowledge is something our kind enjoys amassing. Someone attacking or threatening innocents makes me sad, that's just wrong. There's not a lot that makes me angry.
45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil?
Good and evil are stupid concepts, but our lord has stated that whatever someone is at their core, they can change it. He should know, what with, you know.
46. What are your views on politics?
Don't really care about human politics that much - except when our leaders say it is necessary to know about them.
47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing?
Gambling is incredibly stupid, and lying is unnecessary. Thievery's a bit of a weird concept for our kind, thieves are really rare among us. I understand that some humans can't really live otherwise, so I suppose it is acceptable in some situations? I don't really understand the thing. And killing, while something to be avoided, is necessary at times. It is not really evil atleast.
48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs?
I will fight for them if necessary.
49. How much do you value money?
Money is, again, one somewhat weird concept for me, so I don't value it that much.
50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?
Umm... Causing a war to happen? I don't know.
51. Do you believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good?
Yes. It is something that might be necessary at times - although I really, really hope I will never have to do that.
52. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love?
Not really.
53. Are you superstitious?
I suppose not. There just are some weird things in the world.
54. How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others?
As long as they don't involve trying to incite war, I'm okay with them.
55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings?
Pretty honest.
56. Do you have any biases or prejudices?
Humans - and humanlike races, like dwarves and elves and such - are weird.
DEALING WITH OTHERS
57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
My sisters might take that role, they were always very supportive, and very friendly.
58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why?
I respect my grandfather the most, because of the whole Seeker-thing I told earlier. I - like many of my kind - despise the Haazag´Khat. I believe the closest translation for that is 'the Patriarch', and he is [REDACTED]. ((more secretssss))
59. Do you have a significant other? Who? Why?
Do not have any. Because there aren't enough to go around, as I already said - something like 1 out of 6 of our kind are women. Or maybe a bit less, now that I think about it. Don't know the exact numbers.
60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend?
I do not have that many, but my best friend might be Trech'zul. He's the nobleborn commander of Seekers, and he is a fine fellow. Haven't seen him in a while though, he also had an important mission he left for soon after I left for mine. Something about protecting [REDACTED]. ((secretsss - though this one won't probably be a secret for so long))
61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex?
Pretty well. Seeker position is prestigious, so it helps.
62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex?
I am rather confused when it comes to interacting with humans and such. And I come along well with members of the other sex, even if I am not a good catch for my kind.
63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
Haven't been.
64. What do you look for in a potential lover?
I don't look for one, I just hope I get picked one day.
65. How close are you to your family?
Very close, as is traditional amongst our kind.
66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?
Of course I want one, but I am not very likely to get one.
67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
I try to avoid conflict.
68. Are you a listener or a talker?
I suppose I am a listener - atleast from human point of view.
69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others?
Not very long, but I am deeply insulted if my trust is broken.
70. Do you hold grudges?
Yes. I don't start grudges very often, but I do hold them.
71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
Not really.
72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people?
Yes! Too bad large groups of humans don't tend to want to interact with me... Oh well.
73. How well do you express yourself?
Well amongst my kind, but amongst humans... I sometimes get a bit confused.
74. How quickly do you judge others?
Well I don't try to judge.
75. Do you care what others think of you?
I hope people look upon me positively.
76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?
I don't have any personal enemies.
PERSONAL TASTE AND OPINIONS
77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession?
I like reading books. I think green is a nice colour - I used to think black was the best, but now that I've been out in the world a bit... Green is beautiful. I love the taste of this one salamander species native to Drache Loche, even if I've been eating them ever since I was a lil whelp. Haven't had one for a while now, oh well, too bad. I like human cakes too.
78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?
I don't really have any preference - but I once saw a human play, that was fascinating, even if I didn't really understand it.
79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?
I like the human beverage called 'beer'. We don't really have a direct equivalent, and it makes me feel all fuzzy and stuff. Makes me feel bad if I drink too bad though.
80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
Umm... I used to spend them practicing my skills with the sabre, but now that I'm on my mission, I usually am trying to perform my duty.
81. What is your most cherished fantasy?
Being the one that actually finds the bearer of the Serpent Amulet
82. How long is your attention span?
Not that long... Although I tend to return to doing what I was supposed to be doing eventually, I get easily sidetracked.
83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny?
I don't really know if it is a lot by human standards, but I sometimes find human stuff funny.
84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what?
Violence for its own sake. I can understand duels and stuff, we have them too, but violence for sport...? That just makes me feel weird. I mean, what? Why?
85. How do you deal with stress?
I don't really stress about things.
86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic?
I'm real agile, even for one of my kind, but kind of average in strenght. Which is still slightly stronger than the average human, but still. I don't really have artistic ability.
87. Do you like animals? Do you like children?
In what way do you mean do I like animals? As food or what? And I think kids are great, some human kids aren't even afraid of me and are instead curious about the 'funny talking lizard'.
88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
I am pretty much completely spontaneous.
89. Do you have a pet? If so, what is his/her name? Species? Fur color? Etc…
...Pet? ((fire kobolds don't really have pets, at most they have animals used for some sort of labour or as cattle))
SELF-IMAGE
90. What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness?
My spontaneousness is both a strenght and weakness - it means I am pretty well adaptable (which is why I was selected to become a Seeker), but it also means I don't always take the best option possible.
91. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Umm. Maybe I'd like to be a nobleborn, being bigger would be nice.
92. Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
Does extroverted mean social? I am very social. I think that was what it meant, or something like that.
93. Do you like yourself?
Yes.
94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted?
Not really.
95. What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime?
I hope I find the bearer in the next six months, that would be real swell. Don't know about lifetime goal. Haven't really thought about it.
96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?
I don't really plan that far ahead.
97. If you could choose, how would you want to die?
Umm. No idea.
98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death?
For finding the bearer! That would be great!
99. What three words would you use to best describe your personality?
Happy little Seeker! Or something like that!
100. What three words would others probably use to describe you?
Well depends on whether you ask humans or my kind I guess. My kind would probably call me "that excitable Seeker". Don't know what humans would call me. I should ask one.
101. Why are you risking your life to adventure?
To find the bearer of the Serpent Amulet! Haven't I said that atleast three times already? Jeez, you are forgetful. Though I guess I wouldn't call it adventure, more like duty. But atleast I get to see some nice places!

Post by submarine on Nov 10, 2014 4:11:05 GMT 3
Noniin. Pitkän hiljaisuuden jälkeen on vihdoinkin joku jolla vastata taas tähänkin. Hahmona on Haekli.
BASICS 1. What is your full name? Do you have a nickname? Oh, hello. I'm Haekli. Just Haekli, really. No nicknames. No real last name either. I come from a small village, nobody really had any last names there.
2. How old are you? When is your birthday? I'm around 20. I was born in summer.
3. Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic? Well, I come from the Taunar Highlands. It's far away and long ways in the east, along the edge of the eastern frontier. I was born in a small water town. Quiet place, nothing much there, really. I suppose it wasn't a bad place to live, and I don't have too many bad memories of there. Well, except some big ones... But now I'm not really living anywhere. I just kind of... wander, I suppose.
4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.) My father's name is Dolo. He's a carpenter. I... suppose he was quiet and reserved. He told me that it was important to choose a time and a place for your words. And... well, I suppose he always did. I don't really know anything about my mother, but she obviously wasn't from around there.
5. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like? No, not really. I was the only child, and even then, I obviously wasn't from around *there* either. Eh, I had some cousins though, so I had company. Sordu was around my age, so we played together the most. I always went along with him, and he got us into all kinds of trouble. I... suppose it was only due to him that I'm here now. Eh, that's not fair though. It's just that... well, I think he's doing much better now. He always wanted to be an Emerald Swordsman. I'm sure he's getting there.
6. What is your occupation? Eh, I'm a lot of things. It's a bit confusing, actually. My father taught me his trade, so I suppose I'm a carpenter, or at least an apprentice, but then I'm also a geomancer. You know, one of the, um, "adepts of the form". I suppose you can earn a living like that as well. And... I'm also a soldier. Or at least, I've been trained in that. Even if... no, sorry, nothing. But right now, I'm just wandering, I guess. I mean, I've fixed furniture and such for a few bits, but that's not really an occupation, is it? Eh, I suppose I'm not being useful at all right now. I'm just wondering and... trying to figure all this out.
7. How tall are you? How much do you weigh? I'm a bit short. Not really short or anything, but shorter than most. I'm pretty lean too. But I'm not really all that light, really. I'm... sturdy, in a way. Bony, kinda. Still, I'm short and not really all that heavy, to put it blutly.
8. What color is your hair? What color are your eyes? My hair's pretty clear red. Not red like... well, like most. It's just a clear, stark red. Kinda like a red rose, maybe. And my eyes are... well, they're yellow, but I guess they're strange otherwise as well. I mean, they're a bit like... lizard eyes, really. Just all yellow and black little pupils. I don't know if that makes me see any differently. They're my only eyes, after all. I don't think they're too different, though. I mean, I see the same things as others.
9. What is your race? Well... that's something I don't really know. It's obvious my mother wasn't a human, though. I mean, I'm all ashen black and there's the eyes. And the ears. I don't really know what exactly I am. Eh, there were some like that back home. Close to the frontier, there are always those with... different blood. I don't really know.
10. To which social class do you belong? Well, I was a craftsman back home. And... well, then I suppose I was a soldier. And now I'm not really anything, I guess. Just a wanderer. I don't think there's social class for people like that, since, well, there's not society. Sometimes I wonder if I could be a craftsman again, though.
11. Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others? Eh? I... don't know. Sorry, I don't really have any idea. I... maybe? I haven't really had time to think about that. I don't know if anyone ever thought like that. I guess my cousin was always pretty popular. Maybe I was too weird...
12. What is your style of dress? Since I'm travelling, I just wear plain clothing. Something that'll survive a bit better and doesn't need fussing over. I don't mind better clothing, but... well, it's not too practical and I wouldn't have the money either. Right now, I'm wearing just plain half-length pants, this old shirt and my leather vest. Since I can make those pretty easily, I just use these simple wooden shoes. It's something I've picked up over time. It leaves my feet a bit more open and that's, you know, a good thing for a geomancer. Which I am, like I said.
13. Do you have any scars? Tattoos? Birthmarks? Other unique physical features? Some scars, yes. Uh, I'd rather not talk about those too much. They're... from bad things. No tattoos or marks, but I suppose I'm... unique enough anyhow. Unfortunately.
14. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses? Not really. There's a scar in my left hand now, and it stings now and then, but other than that, not really.
15. Are you right- or left-handed? Right.
16. What does your voice sound like? Eh, I've been told it's a bit soft. A bit too high, maybe. I wouldn't know, but it's certainly not deep.
17. What kind of vocabulary do you use? Well, I guess I just tend to speak normally. I pick my words a bit, try to not blurt out anything, but I don't really use fancy words too much. I suppose the only ones of that type I even know are related to geomancy. And I usually don't need to talk about that.
18. List three quirks or other defining characteristics. Three things? Well, I guess I look a bit strange, but you're asking about personality and such, right? Um, well. I wouldn't really know about that. I guess I'm just not that quirky.
19. How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes? Yeah, I wash myself when I have the chance. It's good to be clean, and you can get really dirty on the road. I usually just wash myself in rivers and the like. Someone once told me that the cold water is good for you, but I wouldn't know. But sometimes I rub my hands with flower petals. It makes them smell a bit nicer.
20. What kind of facial expression do you commonly wear (dour glare, wry smile, etc)? Ehm, I guess people say I often look careful and surprised. I guess I am, a bit at least.
21. Do you use body language? How? I mostly just use hand gestures, I guess.
22. Do you have a commonly used saying? Not really, no. Maybe I'll get one at some point. I guess you have to come up with some tried and true observation about life or somesuch, after all. I'm still just looking, really.
23. What is your earliest memory? I'm not really sure. Maybe it was when my father gave me a small wooden horse. I remember playing with it, at least. He made it himself, being a carpenter, and I had it for a long time. It eventually broke down, but it was important. Eh, I certainly remember crying about that.
24. How much schooling have you had? Did you enjoy it? I mostly just learned carpentry back home, and basic letters and such. I suppose it wasn't bad or anything. It felt important. But later, in the Academy of War, and as a geomancer, I learned a whole lot more. Back then, all that felt really important and meaningful. Like it all had a purpose and I was exactly where I needed to be. But... well. I suppose things just don't work out that simply.
25. Where did you learn most of your knowledge and skill? Well, like I said, I learned my craft back home, and most of the other stuff at various stages of my training. I... suppose I'm still trying to learn many things. It's a lot harder now, with nobody to simply tell me what to learn and do.
26. How would you describe your childhood in general? It was peaceful, I guess. I mean, just an ordinary childhood, really. I guess I was always kind of the weird one, but it was a small town and the people didn't change, so suppose it simply became everyday life. We spent most of our days by the river. Sometimes, Sordu dragged me along for something. He always wanted to see new things, so sometimes we went pretty far. And we always got into trouble for that.
27. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I don't really know. I suppose I always thought I'd just take up my father's craft and that would be that. I guess it felt sensible.
28. When and with whom was your first kiss? Um, well, I guess I've done that. But maybe I should keep that to myself. Sorry, it's just not something I want to talk about, really.
29. Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity? Well... yes. I suppose it just never really... happened. Ehm. I mean, there's never really been a time or a person. Just... I know some others just got it over with, sometimes with money, but... well. I didn't really feel like that. I don't know. It's complicated and I can't really think about that now.
30. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? Does that affect you? Not really. I mean, I came from a small town. Simply a small town carpented, the son of another. I don't even know of my ancestors past my grandfather's father, and they were all simply carpenters. Maybe... maybe I'll be the notorious one if there's ever going to be children. Ehh...
INFLUENCES
31. What do you consider the most important event of your life so far? Um, well, there have been some. But if I had to choose, I'd rather go with the... less horrible one. And that would be when out small town was attacked by monsters. Um, yes. I know that doesn't really sound like the "less horrible one", but still. It wasn't that unusual to see a weird thing near the town, since we were close to the frontier and the rangers don't patrol there too heavily. Taunar has its own military for that, but things slip by from time to time. But this time, it was much worse. Goblins and the like, everywhere. I was maybe 16 at the time. I would have just hid away, but Sordu was there, and like always, I got dragged into it all with him. He wanted to do something, said we had to help the others. And I guess I just followed him. I had a long stick, and I just swung at anything that got too close. I don't remember too much about it, but Sordu apparently did a whole lot, and I was there with him, so I guess I was part of it as well. A few months later, some men from the Academy of War came and told us that we'd come with them. And that was, more or less, that. We'd showed promise, so we'd be trained as elite soldiers. We didn't have any say about it, but... eh, back then, I suppose it sounded like some big, important, great thing to achieve. It just felt... right.
32. What do you consider your greatest achievement? Ugh. Sorry, that question just... doesn't feel good. It's rightfully cruel, now. Can we skip over this? Thank you.
33. What is your greatest regret? Not being able to do better...
34. What is the most embarrassing or shameful thing ever to happen to you? I... I don't really want to talk about it. Sorry, I know. It's just... not good for me right now.
35. Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they? Not any great ones, I suppose. I guess there's not so much to me that I'd need to have any great secrets. Eh, my aunt once told me her secret pie recipe, but... I've forgotten it. Not that I ever was any good at baking, anyhow.
36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done? Well, uh. There... there was a small village, and I got involved in a mess I really shouldn't have. I was lost, and confused, and I was trying to defend myself, but... well, a man still died. He was an old guardsman. It was... it shouldn't have happened. I don't even know whose fault it was, but it was all wrong. Just... all wrong. Just... wrong... Um. I've also sometimes stolen food. I shouldn't, but sometimes... well, sometimes I'm hungry.
37. When was the time you were the most frightened? Gah, please... let's not talk about that. It's... it's just all really bad. Just bad and wrong and... please, no.
38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where? I'm doing that right now. As to where, I have no idea. I guess I'm just trying to figure that out myself. The world is vast, and I don't really have any direction. I guess I'm just trying to figure these things out.
BELIEFS
39. What is your alignment? I guess I'm Neutral Good. Or somesuch.
40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic? I... don't really know any more. I used to think that everything will work out, but... well, I don't know. I'd like to still believe that, but... nothing is really working out right now in any way. I guess I'm optimistic and proven wrong. I just hope things will get better.
41. Do you believe in a god? If so, which one and why? I don't know. I guess I haven't had much time to think about things like that. I mean, I was taught about the gods and worship, but I haven't really ever felt anything personal about it, really.
42. Do you believe in an afterlife? I at least hope there's one. Everything would be a bit less... cruel that way, I think.
43. What is your greatest fear? Um, I guess I have several big fears. But the largest is, probably, that it will all end like this. Just... without anything.
44. What makes you angry? Sad? Happy? Why? I... don't like seeing people suffer. I just don't. That makes me angry and sad. It's just not right. But finding a time or a place where everything's alright, even for a while, makes me happy. It just feels like there aren't enough of those times.
45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil? I don't think there are many people that are actually, really evil. But... I have seen some. I think there are both. Most are just people, though.
46. What are your views on politics? Um, well. I haven't really had the time or the inclination to ever pay much attention to that. I suppose I've always been someone who only needs to know what to do, not why. Just a... soldier, I guess. I don't know, it's all complicated.
47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing? Eh, well, I suppose I've done some gambling. I mean, there was some free time back in the academy, and games were quite a common way to pass that time. I picked up on a few. I suppose I'm not too bad at them. I don't really think they're too bad if you're just playing with harmless stakes. But it can probably be dangerous. Lying and theft are more serious, I think. I mean, I guess lying for a good reason isn't terrible, and, well, I've had to steal myself, sometimes, but it's very easy to do those out of greed and not need. I think so, at least. I've seen people justify... bad things to themselves. About killing. Well... ugh. I know that sometimes you have to do it. Sometimes things are bad and it's not always wrong, but... I don't like it. It's terrible. It's not right at all and I... I just don't like it. I don't think anyone should like it.
48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs? I don't think I have any real beliefs that need too much defending. Eh, I guess that's kinda sad. But I've stood up to defend some things, though. Eh, I'm not proud about that, and it could have gone really badly, but... I guess I've taken a stand against things. Maybe that's important. Someone I once knew said that it is.
49. How much do you value money? Ehm, well. I guess people often say that money can't buy you happiness or that money's the root of all evil, or things like that, but I don't think it's that simple. It would be nice if it were, but... well, money can save lives, or end them. And it can do a lot of good as well... or evil. I mean, I wouldn't ever do anything terrible for money, but I suppose I can't curse it as worthless, either. It's... important, unfortunately. Haha, and I once again have none of it. Maybe I shouldn't say anything about something I never really have...
50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do? I don't like thinking about things like that. I guess I've seen a lot of evil things, too many, but if I start making absolutes like that, then I will just be sorely dissappointed when something worse happens. Sorry, I guess that sounds quite grim...
51. Do you believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good? I'll at least admit that it's very commendable. But... I don't know. I couldn't do something like that. Just... no. Maybe I'm just a coward, but I can't simply think objectively like that. Maybe... maybe you need something worth sacrificing yourself for. I'd rather not think about it.
52. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love? Um, I don't know. I haven't really ever thought about it too much. I guess it's something people talk about, but... well, I don't know. It would be nice, perhaps? Though... honestly, nowadays I'm having a very hard time believing in any easy solution like that.
53. Are you superstitious? I guess I know more about magic and such than many ordinary folk. When you know about these things, beliefs like that don't really scare you so much any more. I mean, I can at least make an educated guess about many things. Not that I'd just stick around to find out if something looks dangerous. Magic is always a serious thing.
54. How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others? I usually try to. I guess there are some people with, honestly, terrible views on things, but... well, as long as they're not actually acting on them, it's best to leave them alone. Eh, usually even more so if they are. Just... walk away, usually. Best for everyone.
55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings? I guess I'm mostly honest. I mean, as long as it doesn't cause problems. Athough I guess I'm still trying to sort them out myself.
56. Do you have any biases or prejudices? Well, I guess I... don't feel all that comfortable around warriors. It's not that I hate them or anything. It's just that... well, what they do and are makes me feel uncomfortable. I carry a sword myself, and I don't really even know how to feel about that. It's complicated.
DEALING WITH OTHERS
57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why? There isn't anyone like that, at the moment. I guess it would be good to have someone, but... well, there just isn't anyone. Eh, I guess that's pretty sad as well. But other than him, there was also my commander, Okkun. He was an old man, and strict, but he taught me a lot. Quite a lot. As did my master in geomancy, Turra Naaran. I wonder if I'll ever see any of them again. I wonder if they'd even want to see me...
58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why? I respect Sordu a lot. He always knew what he wanted to do and wasn't afraid of doing it. I think that's important. I often hope I could be more like that, but... well, I'm not. Eh, I don't really have many people I really despise that much. If there's people who'd warrant something like actual despising, I try not to get to know them well enough for that.
59. Do you have a significant other? Who? Why? Well, no. Like I said, I guess it would be good to have someone, but I haven't really even had time to think about something like that. I guess I'd have to settle down somewhere, first. Maybe if I ever find that place.
60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend? I had some, back in Taunar. I don't know if I could call them friends any more. But Sordu was my best friend, certainly.
61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex? Well, back in my village, I guess I got along with people well enough. Nothing special, really. Although I guess I've never really felt part of it all. Just... someone who's there. That didn't really change in the Academy.
62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex? I just try to not cause too many problems with new people. It's easier to fit in that way. I usually don't have problems with different kinds of people, I suppose.
63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened. I don't really know. Um, I suppose I'd know if I'd ever felt something like that. It sounds like a pretty big deal. So probably now.
64. What do you look for in a potential lover? Eh, honestly, I have never really thought about that. I haven't had the time or a reason, like I said. I guess it'd have to be a person that feels good to have near you? Something like that?
65. How close are you to your family? Well, I'm not. Not any more. I just... left. After they banished me from the Academy, I never even went back home. I feel bad about that, I really do, but... well, I just couldn't go back home and be a failure. I simply left. I don't really know anything about my father's life now. I hope he's doing fine.
66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children? Uh, well, maybe? I don't know, I'd have to find a person for that first. I can't really see myself in that situation at the moment. It's just too far and too different.
67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict? I don't really like arguing. I'd rather avoid that, if possible.
68. Are you a listener or a talker? A listener, I guess. I mean, of course I talk, but I'd rather know what I'm talking about. I've never been one to carry conversations by myself. Eh, my geomancy teacher taught me that it's better to listen and observe than rush in headlong. He was... he was a wise man.
69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others? Um, well. I guess it's better to keep your distance, usually. But then again, I'm, not really suspicious of people, either. I guess I take them at a careful face value? I haven't really been deceived too often, but... well, sometimes people don't care about that but still end up being not what they seem.
70. Do you hold grudges? Not really, no. Well, not more so than anyone else, at least.
71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations? Oh, no. Really, I'm just fine with someone else taking the lead most of the time. I mean, I've been taught to take orders without questioning, and I've never been one to tell others what to do, anyhow. I guess I've had to do that now and then, but I'd rather now.
72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Well, I don't hate it or anything. I'm not much good in a crowd, but at least there are plenty of people who'll keep the conversation going. But really, I prefer somewhere I can hear my own thoughts.
73. How well do you express yourself? Uh, I don't really know how to answer that. I guess I'm trying my best.
74. How quickly do you judge others? When they give me reason to? I mean, I don't really do that as much as it happens. When I have reason to, I suppose.
75. Do you care what others think of you? I'd rather not, but... well, you know. It can get to you even if you try not to care about it. I guess I try to do my best so that there wouldn't be need to not let it get to me. Eh.
76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy? Um, no, I don't think so. I don't think I've ever done anything that would make me real enemies. I guess you'd either have to do something really bad, or something really important for that to happen. Eh, and although I've done something really bad, I don't think it made me enemies... I hope.
PERSONAL TASTE AND OPINIONS
77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession? Well, I do spend a lot of time practicing geomancy and meditating on it, but I guess that's not really a pastime. I mean, it can be relaxing and all, but it still takes effort. I like carving and games, and I read when the chance presents itself - which isn't that often, really. Oh, and I like green. As for food, I guess I like beef... although I guess everyone likes beef. Eh, I haven't really had much experience with food, I've just been taught to eat what's on the table... which often wasn't good. Ugh. I don't have many things, but of these, my sword is most prized. Eh, I know how it must mean, me carrying this despite everything, but... well, it's more than just a weapon. I was taught so long to use and respect this. There's, there's a lot of ideology behind this, really. I don't have anything else to even remind me of all the... better times, back then.
78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment? Eh, I guess I've never had the opportunity to get used to anything highbrow. Just common stuff. I like statues, at least the proper kind of statues.
79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not? Well, I drink something from time to time, but other than that, not really. I guess my master smoked a pipe of weed every now and then, but I never learned to appreciate that. And, well, it's not like I'd even have the money for the other stuff, but it's also just something I don't really do. I've... I've got enough to worry without that kind of headache, already.
80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night? I don't really differentiate days much any more, unless they're geomantically important or such. But when I have the time to relax, I guess I simply try to take it as easy as possible. Just... be and enjoy the world as much as possible. I try my best to find that enjoyment, even if it's hard. It usually is. I guess I like learning new things about new places as well.
81. What is your most cherished fantasy? Eh, well... I suppose I often think about a time where nothing of this matters any more, some time in the far future. Or maybe if all the bad stuff had never even happened. I guess I simply wish that I could live in something that at least resembles peace, knowing my place in the world. It would be... simple. And easy.
82. How long is your attention span? Oh, uh, I guess I don't have trouble concentrating? I mean, I've been taught to observe rocks and plants and mud, after all, haha... I'm pretty good with that.
83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny? Well, not really. Sorry if this sounds gloomy, but... well, I guess I don't have many reasons to laugh, nowadays. It's good to laugh, but forcing it out just feels empty and hollow. Maybe I'd just like to find more reasons to laugh, first.
84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what? I think I already said that I really don't like to see people suffering. Sometimes, I'm still shocked to see how much some people can disregard others. I mean, I'm not trying to sound like a saint or anything. It's just that... it's wrong and just makes me think that I could be abused by them as well. I don't know if it makes any sense, but I often have this thought that harming one person due to blatant disregard for them is the same as harming everyone else. Just wrong.
85. How do you deal with stress? Um, I guess I'm finding that out right now. Sorry, that's a bad joke. But really, I guess I just try to manage. Just... deal with the problems and try to find some good side to all of it.
86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic? Well, I'm a geomancer. Geomancers have to be pretty fit and well, since it takes a lot of physical effort... even if it doesn't really look like it. But you really are taking part of the strain and the weight of the world upon yourself when you do it. And even part of that is quite a lot. It's just necessity, really, I don't think of it as anything else than that. As for artistic... well, I don't know. I guess I can carve and all, but I tend to focus more on the geometric side. I guess I can make some wood cuttings for decoration and all, but I've never really tried painting or anything like that. I don't know, really.
87. Do you like animals? Do you like children? I don't mind them, at least. I don't have any special fondness for them, not I don't dislike them either. I guess animals are useful and good to have around, and children are necessary.
88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan? Well, I'd rather make plans and be sure of things before doing them, but that's not really all that feasible, nowadays. Ehm, I guess I'm having to learn how to be spontaneous these days.
89. Do you have a pet? If so, what is his/her name? Species? Fur color? Etc… Not really, no. There was a dog that followed me around, a rather scruffy mongrel thing, but I guess it simply got fed up with that. Maybe I'll see it some day again, but it was never mine as such, really. Maybe an animal would be good to have around, but I think it would be a big hassle. I mean, it's a responsibility and requires lot of effort. I'd really just prefer to worry about myself, and not others as well.
SELF-IMAGE
90. What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness? I don't really know about strengths, but, well, I suppose I try to think things through before acting. I guess that's at least some kind of a strength. Uh, but... well, I'm a coward. No pretty way to put it. I'm a coward. I'm afraid to fight and I fear violence. I'm just a coward, and that ended up costing many people their lives. Just... a sad coward...
91. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? Oh, I'd be brave. Like Sordu, like a real warrior. Not like someone who... who panics and flees at the sight of trouble. Not someone who couldn't protect anyone.
92. Are you generally introverted or extroverted? I guess I keep to myself a lot of the time. It's not that I don't like talking to people, or just socializing in general, but I'm not in any way great at it. Sometimes, I just need some time alone... or rather, with the whole world. But without the talking bits.
93. Do you like yourself? Well... no. Really, I don't. There's just so much wrong with me and with things as they are now and... just no. It's all a big mess and I'm having a hard time tolerating myself, much less actually liking. I just hope that things will be better at some point, but... I just don't know how they could be.
94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted? I tend to start my day with geomancy practices. Meditation and centering rituals and all that. It calms the nerves a fair bit. And after that, I guess I just mostly do what's to be done at the moment. It depends on where I am, really.
95. What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime? Um, I'm really, really not comfortable with thinking too far ahead. At the moment, I'm just trying to manage and keep things together and maybe, if I'm lucky, figure out something about this whole messy situation. I really can't put any time limits on anything right now. It's not going to happen like that, and then I'll just feel worse. If anything, I just hope that at *some* point, things will be less chaotic and less messy.
96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? That's, um, that's absolutely too far for me. I don't want to think the next year, much less the next five.
97. If you could choose, how would you want to die? That's terrible, I really don't want to think about something like that. But, well, if I had to choose, I guess I'd want to go peacefully and quietly. In my sleep, probably.
98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death? I'd really rather not be. At least, not for any of what I'll probably be remembered right now. I'd be full of regrets if I died now and I don't really want to think about that.
99. What three words would you use to best describe your personality? Eh, these are always difficult. I guess I'm... careful, confused and... well, honestly, I just feel grievously broken at the moment. Um, let's move on.
100. What three words would others probably use to describe you? That really depends on the person. Uh, and I'd rather not think about anyone's opinions about me right now.
101. Why are you risking your life to adventure? Oh, I'm not. I mean, I'm not an adventurer. I just... well. I'm just in this situation because of how things went. I just hope things will get better. I'd much rather not be anything that could be confused with an adventurer.
