This folder is dead!
It's time to breathe some life back into it. Once upon a time, I posted a survey. It made people pay attention to this thread for at least an hour or two... so maybe I will try it again. Here's some questions, go!
1) What are you doing this weekend?
2) What color do you most associate with your character? (Doesn't have to be their favorite!)
3) What is your preferred flavor of ice cream?
4) What new/returning TV are you most looking forward to this fall?
5) What does your character spend his/her time doing during all that time you aren't logged in?
6) What is your character's absolute worst nightmare?
7) Tell us a joke.
8) What would your absolute dream item in game be? Realistically? Unrealistically?
9) Tell us a fun fact about you.
10) Tell us a fun fact about your character.
11) What is your character's goal in life?
12) Cake or pie?
13) What kind of cake or pie?
14) Do you have any pets? What are they?
15) What is your character's most treasured item?
16) Do you remember your first alteration? Show us!
17) Remember how we got some glimpses of alternate realities during Cataclysm? Make one up. What's your character doing there?
18) If your character existed in the real world, what would he/she do for a living?
19) We all know eachother's characters' favored Arkati... but what's your character's second-most-favored Arkati?
20) What are you reading lately? Watching? Playing?
21) What's something your character has always wondered about another character?
That should do it for now. I'll answer later. I expect immediate responses from ALL of you. Go!

Sure, I'll play...
1) What are you doing this weekend?
- Preparing the house for family to descend next weekend. And alchemy, because I hate myself.
2) What color do you most associate with your character? (Doesn't have to be their favorite!)
- Turquoise.
3) What is your preferred flavor of ice cream?
- Peanut butter!
4) What new/returning TV are you most looking forward to this fall?
- TV? What is this? Netflix 4eva!
5) What does your character spend his/her time doing during all that time you aren't logged in?
- Praying (a little), taking care of admin, giving advice, and nosing about.
6) What is your character's absolute worst nightmare?
- Apparently, dark shamblers...
7) Tell us a joke.
- They say monks'll be out this year.
8) What would your absolute dream item in game be? Realistically? Unrealistically?
- Realistic: A glamour tattoo
- Unrealistic: A custom spirit servant
9) Tell us a fun fact about you.
- I drive submarines for a living.
10) Tell us a fun fact about your character.
- Godefroy used to be a novice in the Temple of Eonak... and boy, was his dad dissappointed!
11) What is your character's goal in life?
- Convince a few adventurers that the Church isn't so bad.
12) Cake or pie?
- Cake.
13) What kind of cake or pie?
- Carrot cake.
14) Do you have any pets? What are they?

16) Do you remember your first alteration? Show us!
- Short: a gold-cuffed white wool cassock
- Show: Cloth-covered buttons fasten the woven snowy Aldoran wool that forms the body of the garment. Otherwise austere, the ivory hue is relieved only by golden edging and wide cuffs turned back to reveal a rich silk lining of gold-on-gold embroidered crowns.
17) Remember how we got some glimpses of alternate realities during Cataclysm? Make one up. What's your character doing there?
- Ummm... I missed most of that, sadly. I returned from sea only in time for Raelee to destroy 'Haven.
18) If your character existed in the real world, what would he/she do for a living?
- Godefroy would be one of those earnest politicians that only manipulates you to help you. He'd probably either stall out at State Senator, or become White House Chief of Staff.

- Phoen
20) What are you reading lately? Watching? Playing?

I'm not fun :/
10) Tell us a fun fact about your character.

Technically its not her first, but its the first I helped design
a jagged pale gauntlet-sword
This gauntlet-sword has been forged of sturdy, sand-hued vultite with a slightly curved, blistered bone haft wrapped in darkened suede. One side of the sword is stained with pale cerulean streaks, and is etched with small, edged geometric shapes near the base of the blade. The other side of the blade is also whorled with blue, yet reflects a hint of ruby, and is etched with a pair of entwining hawks midflight, their talons extended. A dull snakestone provides a counterbalance in the center of the hilt.
There appears to be something written on it.
Engraved along the midline of the base of the blade, among the geometric shapes, are the words, "Dance of the Wind."
17) Remember how we got some glimpses of *alternate realities* during Cataclysm? Make one up. What's your character doing there?
(We did?) Vilkea still in the Sands with her original love and family, listening to a plot against the Empire.

Probably a government agent in international relations and conflict resolution

Watching -work
Playing - ...hopefully not work

Well, since Aydan already brought up the delightful reign of Empress Svala I...

Long story, goes way back to the small child version of Raelee. You should probably ask her in game. :)
>Does Raelee love her? ;)
Nah.

I'm not really a local of Solhaven but my character hangs out and watches people from invisibility sometimes! And sticks her nose in whenever something Lornonish seems to be going down. And I'm bored.
>1) What are you doing this weekend?
Driving from New Jersey to Texas.
>2) What color do you most associate with your character? (Doesn't have to be their favorite!)
Black, like her shriveled little soul.
>3) What is your preferred flavor of ice cream?
A discontinued Blue Bell flavor called Decadence. It was vanilla and chocolate syrup and frozen whipped cream swirled together. These days, I settle for Ben & Jerry's Coffee Heath Bar Crunch.
>4) What new/returning TV are you most looking forward to this fall?
They're already back by now but Big Bang Theory and Bones are tied for me.
>5) What does your character spend his/her time doing during all that time you aren't logged in?
Business. She is the head of her family, a group of shipping magnates, so she is involved in a lot of trade with the world outside Ta'Nalfein. She also takes in and trains young noble ladies in the arts of household management, music, education, et cetera, in the fashion of the Medieval noble fostering system. When she's not networking, she likes to watch people. From invisibility so as not to hinder their natural behaviors. Or she's designing outfits for those who ask her to. Or trying to shoo away all the cats that follow her around. Or amassing wealth and power and influence. She's a busy bee.
>6) What is your character's absolute worst nightmare?
Helplessness.
>7) Tell us a joke.
Why should you always check a pirate's back pockets? That's where he keeps his booty.
>8) What would your absolute dream item in game be? Realistically? Unrealistically?
I'm pretty content right now, actually. If someone would make Lysistrata's pet snake wearable around her neck or arm, that would be perfect.
>9) Tell us a fun fact about you.
My library has over two thousand books in it.
>10) Tell us a fun fact about your character.
She's always got a snake on her somewhere. Yep. Somewhere. Possibly in a pocket or up a sleeve. That's the ticket...
>11) What is your character's goal in life?
To rule the world. Seriously. She's patient.
>12) Cake or pie?
Cake.
>13) What kind of cake or pie?
Red velvet with real cream cheese icing.
>14) Do you have any pets? What are they?
Three dogs. A Jack Russell Terrier named Callahan. He thinks he's my familiar. A Bernese Mountain Dog/Border Collie mix named Sparta, who is lucky to be very sweet because she's as dumb as a rock. A Pitbull named Kirin whose butt, I am convinced, is the Hellmouth. Why else would brimstone leak from it so continuously? Also, I want to get a hairless rat to live in my library when I finish moving.
>15) What is your character's most treasured item?
Probably her pet snake, Sinsuviel.
>16) Do you remember your first alteration? Show us!
Oh yes. I remember it but I refuse to share it on the basis that it was amateurish generic sexy.
>17) Remember how we got some glimpses of alternate realities during Cataclysm? Make one up. What's your character doing there?
I was on a break when this happened! But I get the gist of it. In this alternate reality... Lysistrata is Vivaldi's younger sister.
>18) If your character existed in the real world, what would he/she do for a living?
Um. Infanta of Spain! Just off the top of my head.
>19) We all know each other's characters' favored Arkati... but what's your character's second-most-favored Arkati?
She has a soft spot for Luukos. Plus, she likes the idea of an undead army.
>20) What are you reading lately? Watching? Playing?
Reading: All my books are packed! It is torture. And the next book I'm waiting for doesn't come out until next month.
Watching: A bunch of MST3k episodes I have downloaded to my laptop.
Playing: GS. All of my game systems are packed as well. No Skyrim for me until the end of next week.
>21) What's something your character has always wondered about another character?
She wonders just how strong IS Corlyne's capacity for alcohol?
>1) What are you doing this weekend?
Driving from New Jersey to Texas.
