Name 12 characters you have played in RPGs, before looking at the questions that follow. List your characters numbered 1 to 12, with the name of the RPG you played them in. Once you’ve picked your 12 characters, look at the questions and answer accordingly. (No peeking until you’ve picked your characters!) Put your answers behind a LJ-cut.
Okay, here are my characters:
- William Walker, the “magic cop,” from Vampire: the Masquerade
- Bayushi Yojiro, “the Honest Scorpion,” from Legend of the Five Rings
- Lady Shara, (recently transplanted to Houses of the Blooded) from A Wheel of Time RPG
- The Alchemical Man (the Robot from the Past), from octaNe
- Avanji, the Assassin-Priest of Ikhalu, from D&D 3E
- Sir Kyffin, the Welsh pagan knight from Pendragon
- Mr. Finger, the “we’re not exactly sure what he is, but he’s creepy” character from Vampire, the Masquerade
- Elena, the not-as-innocent as some may think sorte strega, from 7th Sea
- Artemis Brus, the devotee of Flambeau, from Ars Magica
- Grog, the half-ork bard, from D&D 3E
- Jacob Black, the slimy magician, from Vampire: the Requiem
- Mwnn, the silent swordsman, from Jess Heinig’s fucking brilliant Dying Kingdoms
1) Who would make a better college professor: 6, or 11?
Both would be fun, but Kyffin wouldn’t be the one getting sued for sexual harrassement.
2) Do you think 2 is hot? How hot?
He’s a nice guy in a bad position. Girls like bad boys, so no, he probably isn’t very hot.
3) 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
She sends him out to deal with her mother. And yes, it succeeds because he’s that good and because she’ll take all the scars she can to make sure it works.
4) What is, or would be, 9’s favourite book?
Three Books of Occult Philosophy, by Agrippa.
5) Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
Yojiro is very good at following orders. Kyffin is very bad at giving them. It’s a toss up.
6) For some reason, 5 is looking for a room-mate. Should they share a studio apartment with 9, or 10?
Definately 10. A half-ork bard and a high priest of the God of Murder. Definately.
7) 2, 7, and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Jeebus. Um… Finger eats both of them. That’s how it works out, no doubt.
8) 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Wow. Um… I think Shara gets her pretty little ass handed to her.
9) If 1 stole 8’s most precious possession, how would they get it back?
Walker wouldn’t steal anything unless he thought it was dangerous to her. And she’d get it back by getting in close and cozy, then kissing him with curses until he gave it back. It wouldn’t work until Walker realized she was hurting herself. Then, he’d give it back.
10) Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
“Golconda and Isolation.”
God, that sucks.
11) What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
Well, the Alchemical Man is known for moving through time, so he’d probably just drop out of the sky… and wackiness ensues!
12) If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
OH JESUS GOD NO!!!
13) If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
This is a dangerous question that I’ll just leave alone.
14) Does anyone on your friends list resemble 11 (either in appearance or personality)?
Yeah. lordstrange. Except, he’s the evil lordstrange. Using his powers for bad purposes.
15) If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
Avanji. He’d uncork that robot in two seconds flat. Of course, he’d probably kill me, then too. But that’s life in the big city.
16) What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
“Vunja du fatho fan!”
(“When we’re done, let’s get something to eat!”)
17) If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
Probably this one:

18) 1, 6, and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
Mwnn. He doesn’t spend any time talking about it, he just takes it and cuts off anyone’s head who disagrees.
19) What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
Hahahah!
Um… “Hello.”
(Orks will fuck anything, don’tchya know.)
20) What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
He’s too good to get arrested for murder. He’d probably get arrested for something much more mundane–like jaywalking–then, he’d quietly kill everyone in the jailhouse and get away in the middle of the night without anyone seeing him.
21) What is 6’s secret?
He’s in love with Morgana and will do whatever she tells him.
22) If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
My fire mage would summon a weightless flame to carry him wherever he wanted.
23) If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
I think it’s impossible to feel safe anywhere near Mr. Finger, so it has to be Elena.
24) 1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4’s sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that he/she is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3, who gives them what they need to complete their quest. What title would you give this fic?
“Wick Fan Fic 3000!”
