((and lastly, my most current project:  Versatillas Handiman))




Q: What is your given name?

Versatillas (Vehr - sa - Tee - las) Handiman (hand - ih - man)

Q: What do others call you? (i.e. nicknames?)

Verse or Vers or Ver or...  whatever...

I like calling myself "The Daredevil of Stormreach" though.

Q: What is your most fond memory from your youth or past?

Scaling the Market place is always fun.  Did you know those ruins almost take you to the top of the tent?

Q: On a typical day, where in the city of Stormreach would one find you relaxing at?

I relax when I'm running, so I guess everywhere at once.  I can be anywhere, climbing or jumping on anything.

If I'm just lounging with the people, then I'm either in the Pheonix (roudy ol' place anyways) or at the PH, y'know?  The Portable Hole.  Wicked cool place.

Q: What is your favorite food and/or drink?

Gallanda Distillate.  Helps the mind focus and the body quicken.

Q: Of all your accomplishments in recent days, what was your single greatest?

I can cast this wicked cool ray now.  It makes things, kinda die.  Like turns their innies into outies and then into dust.  See?  Cool.

Q: Name one of your fears:

Anti-magic anything is a big fear.  Waking up dead.  Being smothered to death by...  oh wait... you said one fear...

Q: Who would you consider to be your closest friend?

I dunno, I've got loads of friends.  Praut is boring, but handy.  Bones is kinda fun.  Points is Points.  Loads...

Q: Have you ever done anything that you are ashamed of?

Not especially.  There's been times where I've slapped my forhead for forgetting something minor, like empowering a certain spell that could have whiped everyone out already instead of this stupid fight...  But it's not like I have eaten a baby or anything.

Q: You're in a terrible accident, and your healer has no regeneration spell available. Their skill can save some of you, but not all. Given the choice, would you rather lose the use of your hands or your feet?

Hands, I need my hands.  *grimaces* I would lose my feat.  I can teleport and D-Door everywhere I need to get anyways.  And there's always room to float.  I should learn how to float...

Q: Into what lifestyle were you born? (i.e. rich noble, poor, merchant family, etc)

Um...  I was born into the magical?  I don't think any of that really changes my outlook on life.  I was born in a tent somewhere.  Happy?

Q: Have you ever found your 'true love'? Or any love for that matter?

I love speed, I love heights and jumping and falling (but only with feather fall).  I love long walks off of short piers, and as for the ladies, I'm single, no true loves here.  (Just send me a message via the Orien link.  Don't worry, I'll come to you.)

Q: Do you have any bias towards anything? (hate elves, look down on necromancers, love all things of the warrior,  etc.)

I hate things resisting my spells.  I told you to die, you die.  I told you to combust into flames and burn yourself into a ...  well you get the idea.  Flayers, and Rahkshasa are the worst offenders.

Q: In a dangerous situation, what is your weapon of choice?

PK.

Oh, right, for you people that's "Phantasmal Killer".  It almost always lands insta-death in sreaming fear and it kills you in your mind.  Wicked cool.

Q: Do you have any living family?

Yeah, but we're out of touch these days.

Q: Is there anything that you would absolutely refuse to do?

Eat a warforged.  I mean, look at the size of 'em!  They're frickin' HUGE!

Q: What would you wish for if you had a ring of three wishes?

Eww....  Um...  I would hold on to it.  I can get anything I need right now and don't want to dabble with anything THAT hazardous.  Those are the real gambles right there.

Q: What was the saddest day of your life?

Um...  Yesterday?  Last week?  I don't know, days are days.

Q: Who or What has been most influential to you?

Myself.  Maybe, a little bit, Xiloscient.  He's kinda my hero, but you can't tell him, k?

Q: Do you have any weaknesses - serious or lighthearted? (Death by fire vs death by chocolate for example)

I have to breath, eat, sleep, like a normal person?

I mean...

AHEM!  NO, FEAR ME, PUNY MORTALS, I AM...

A forget it.

Q: If money were no object, what would you buy?

A lifetime continuous supply of Power Thirst, or Gallandha distillate, whichever is closer.

Q: Of all the factions of our city, what House or entity do you enjoy working for the most?

I just take the jobs, I work for myself, they just pay me.

Q: What is your given name?

I am unable to reveal that fully. My clan does not allow members to share its name with outsiders. You may refer to me as Sharria Pathseeker as I have come here to find my way.

Q: What do others call you? (i.e. nicknames?)

Among my people, I have never been considered of high enough significance to receive another title.

Q: What is your most fond memory from your youth or past?

Watching the hunter-guardians shepherd my people and keep them safe. I resolved at a young age to join their membership so I could be part of that duty.

Q: On a typical day, where in the city of Stormreach would one find you relaxing at?

I am but newly arrived in Stormreach and not entirely comfortable within its walls as of yet. From my cursory explorations, I suspect I am most likely to spend time in the Phiarlan ward as it most closely retains the natural environment of the region.

Q: What is your favorite food and/or drink?

Cultural delicacies of my tribe, things I doubt you would be familiar with here.

Q: Of all your accomplishments in recent days, what was your single greatest?

Being accepted for consideration as a huntress-guardian. I was sent on a period of temporary exile to hone my skills that I might return and prove myself worthy. Not all are considered strong enough to undertake this test, so I am honored that the clan gave me this opportunity.

Q: Name one of your fears:

Failing my people or being considered unworthy to protect them.

Q: Who would you consider to be your closest friend?

There are individuals among my clan that I am close to, but again you would not know any of them.

Q: Have you ever done anything that you are ashamed of?

No. Everything I have done is in service to my clan and its greatest welfare. I regret nothing done towards that cause.

Q: You're in a terrible accident, and your healer has no regeneration spell available. Their skill can save some of you, but not all. Given the choice, would you rather lose the use of your hands or your feet?

I do not consider either a particularly acceptable option, but if I must choose, I would retain my hands. I could find another means of locomotion without my feet, but I could not draw my bow without my hands.

Q: Into what lifestyle were you born? (i.e. rich noble, poor, merchant family, etc)

I was born into my clan. There is nothing more to be said.

Q: Have you ever found your 'true love'? Or any love for that matter?

My love for my people and my desire to protect them is far stronger than any other emotional bonds I have or expect to form.

Q: Do you have any bias towards anything? (hate elves, look down on necromancers, love all things of the warrior,  etc.)

I bear a deep hatred towards the giants that once enslaved our people and to any others who seek to drive us from our lands.

Q: In a dangerous situation, what is your weapon of choice?

My bow.

Q: Do you have any living family?

My entire clan is family.

Q: Is there anything that you would absolutely refuse to do?

Harm my people or betray those to whom I have sworn an oath.

Q: What would you wish for if you had a ring of three wishes?

I would wish for the enduring safety of my people and then turn the ring over to my clan leaders so that the remaining wishes may be made with their wisdom.

Q: What was the saddest day of your life?

Having to turn my footsteps from my clan and leave them. This was also the proudest day of my life.

Q: Who or What has been most influential to you?

The hunter-guardians of my clan. For as long as I can remember, I have aspired to be counted among their number.

Q: Do you have any weaknesses - serious or lighthearted? (Death by fire vs death by chocolate for example)

I am young and still learning. There is much I do not know, and ignorance can often be a weakness. I am striving to learn as much as I can to overcome this.

Q: If money were no object, what would you buy?

A better bow and armor.

Q: Of all the factions of our city, what House or entity do you enjoy working for the most?

I have not been in your city long enough to form any preferences or opinions of various individuals. I have sworn to work only in service to your Fellowship, so I shall consider all of my jobs to be undertaken towards that aim.

((Suppose it's about time I joined the merry throng over here and did this little "quiz"... *grin*))

 

*Valianna raises her eyebrows*  You wish to ask me some questions?  *shrug*  Very well, although I don't promise to answer them all, or even to answer with the whole truth.  Make what you will of my replies...  *smile*

Q: What is your given name?

The name I was given by my parents is Amette - "Little Flower". *looks slightly embarrassed*   The name I chose for myself when I became an adult is Valianna - it's a combination of the names of my mother and grandfather.  My family name is Galanstacia, which translates as "Starwhisper".

Q: What do others call you? (i.e. nicknames?)

If not Valianna, then Val or Vali.  My father still calls me Amette sometimes. *rolls her eyes*

Q: What is your most fond memory from your youth or past?

*smiles*  Being given my grandfather's bow at my coming of age.

Q: On a typical day, where in the city of Stormreach would one find you relaxing at?

If I'm looking for company, then usually the Guildhall or the Phoenix.  If I want solitude then I'll... well...   If I tell you that, I may not be able to hide there any more.  *grin*

Q: What is your favorite food and/or drink?

Oh... that wondrous thing known as chocolate, in all its forms!

Q: Of all your accomplishments in recent days, what was your single greatest?

Recently?  Hmm...  I guess it would have to be my initiation into the Fellowship, if that counts as an accomplishment? *proud smile*

Q: Name one of your fears:

Spiders...  Small dark places...  Just one?  Small, dark places infested with spiders...  *shudder*

Q: Who would you consider to be your closest friend?

*sighs*  My mother, until her death, and my grandfather.  But here...  *thinks for a moment*  I'm not sure I'm really that close to anyone yet, but... probably Jaggie and - I hope - Deriaz, and Kikyo.  And I'm getting to know Avuna a little better, too.

Q: Have you ever done anything that you are ashamed of?

Oh yes... *looks away*

Q: You're in a terrible accident, and your healer has no regeneration spell available. Their skill can save some of you, but not all. Given the choice, would you rather lose the use of your hands or your feet?

I'd rather not lose either, but if I had to choose then it would be my feet.  If I have my hands I can still shoot, and I'm sure I can find some other way of getting around.

Q: Into what lifestyle were you born? (i.e. rich noble, poor, merchant family, etc)

My birth caused a... change in lifestyle for my parents.  I'd rather not discuss it right now, if you don't mind.

Q: Have you ever found your 'true love'? Or any love for that matter?

*laughs*  Affection, certainly, but love?  No - only for my family, so far.

Q: Do you have any bias towards anything? (hate elves, look down on necromancers, love all things of the warrior,  etc.)

Although I don't always succeed, I try to be unbiased.  But...  *a worryingly murderous look comes into her eyes*  Kobolds.  I really hate kobolds.

Q: In a dangerous situation, what is your weapon of choice?

My bow.  Or my feet, to run!  *smiles*  I don't consider myself a coward... unless faced with spiders... but I try not to be foolhardy.  I can usually tell when I'm outnumbered or outclassed.

Q: Do you have any living family?

Yes, although things are a bit strained at present.

Q: Is there anything that you would absolutely refuse to do?

I thought so, before I came here.  Now, I'm not so sure - it would depend on the circumstances.  But I wouldn't knowingly kill an innocent or betray any of the Fellowship.

Q: What would you wish for if you had a ring of three wishes?

A ring of... ?  Well - I've never considered such a thing!  I have no idea... perhaps I would wish someone else had the responsibility of choosing wisely.  Again, it would probably depend on my circumstances at the time the ring came into my possession.

Q: What was the saddest day of your life?

When...  No,  I'd rather not think about it.

Q: Who or What has been most influential to you?

In the past, my parents and grandfather.  More recently, the Fellowship.

Q: Do you have any weaknesses - serious or lighthearted? (Death by fire vs death by chocolate for example)

Why should I tell you that?  *smiles*

Q: If money were no object, what would you buy?

If it were possible to buy such a thing, then lasting safety and health for my family, friends and the Fellowship.

Q: Of all the factions of our city, what House or entity do you enjoy working for the most?

I've not discovered any preferences yet.

 

That's it?  You're done being curious?  Good - I hope you got what you wanted.  Now, if you'll excuse me I'm sure I have something less intrusive I could be doing... *smiles politely and walks away*

Q: In a dangerous situation, what is your weapon of choice?

Me quick wits an' feminine charms?  *snorts with laughter*  Nah... somethin' sharp 'n' pointy is always better...  *a flash of movement, and a dagger appears in her hand*  Like this one, see?

Not no more, far's I know.

Maybe.  Dunno 'til I'm asked ter do it, do I?

Q: If money were no object, what would you buy?

Q: Of all the factions of our city, what House or entity do you enjoy working for the most?

*shrugs*  Don't care - they all got their good apples an' bad ones.  Whoever offers the most at the time - dependin' on what they wants done - gets me services.
