(1) Make a list of 10 characters.
(2) Assign each character a number.
(3) Without telling anyone who's on the list or the character's assigned number, get questions from your flist about what they'd like to know about them. IE: "If 3 and 4 were trapped in a cave together with only a blanket and a toothpick, what would they do?" (The more random the better!)
Optional: (3.5) And then you try to guess who is who!
(4) Post the answers and who was who on the list.

So. I have a secret list of ten characters. Ask me questions - I command you!

Rowan needs
a secretary.
R
owan needs another rowan nearby to make fruit; try planting a threesome.
Rowan needs bravery to see that the locus of the true sin is in in perpetuating an anti-gay culture from which suicide, shame, patronising attitudes etc. issue, and where the true Christian witness should be a glorious 'thank you' for the beautiful creatures we are all, in our rich variety made to be.
All Rowan needs is a home environment with structure and lots of love.
Rowan needs to get rolling offensively.
Rowan needs drastic improvement.
Rowan needs to get more rest.
Rowan needs to get his own house in order.
M
aybe Rowan needs to spend more money on security and less on that fountain that is being built outside the Science Hall.
Rowan needs to get laid.

o_o at the last one. Not right now thank you!

Which D&D Character Would I Be?  
Stolen from [info]twetwe123  

I Am A: Neutral Good GnomeBard (1st Level)

Ability Scores:

Strength-12

Dexterity-10

Constitution-11

Intelligence-13

Wisdom-10

Charisma-13

Alignment:
Neutral Good A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment because because it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.

Race:
Gnomes are in wide demand as alchemists, inventors, and technicians, though most prefer to remain among their own kind in simple comfort. Gnomes adore animals, gems, and jokes, especially pranks. They love to learn by personal experience, and are always trying new ways to build things. Gnomes stand 3 to 3.5 feet tall and live about 350 to 500 years.

Class:
Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. A high Charisma score allows a bard to cast high-level spells.

D:  
I've had two dreams now where I've tried to be friendly towards the villain of a book, when I'm supposed to be, like, majorly against them.

First was Count Olaf. I was friends with the Baudelaires -- however, I was walking with the guy and I told him sometimes I enjoy his company more than the company of my friends. He looked at me weirdly and I was kinda embarrassed.

Then, get this, Lord Voldemort. I was supposed to be confronting him for a fight; instead, I told him that however bad and mean and evil he was, I couldn't help thinking he was cute. He laughed, we chatted, I felt happy and let him walk free.

THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY MIIIIND. What is wrong with me that I dream about flirting with evil people (who, by the way, are sooo much older than me)?!

Letter Meme  
A meme wherein I post ten things that I love that start with a letter given to me by someone else. You read mine, comment, and ask me for a letter. Then you do the same thing, posting a list of ten things you love starting with the letter I give you.

[info]xnadex gave me J

1. John Barrowman. A talented singer, actor and all-round nice guy. Plus he's hot. What more do you want?
2. Jack Harkness. Only about the coolest fictional captain of anything ever. Plus he's hot.
3. Jelly. One word: Mmmmmm.
4. Joey Tribbiani. OK, so Friends is just about the best American sitcom in the world...And Joey is one of my favourite characters, next to Chandler and Phoebe.
5. Justin Heazelwood. A.K.A. The Bedroom Philosopher, though I hear he's giving up musical comedy in favour of more serious music. As a musician, comedian, and as a person, this guy rocks.
6. Josh Earle. Close friend of Justin (see 5.) and a fellow musical comedian. His songs are cute as, and so is he. Hooray!
7. Jason Byrne. Take a loud, crazy Irishman. Give him a microphone and a set of props. Sit back and enjoy.
8. Jazz. Swing, particularly. Mostly in musicals and that; eg. Chicago.
9. Johnny Depp. Pretty much my favourite actor, next to Alan Rickman. He's amazingly talented and very versatile.
10. Jack Sparrow. I challenge you to think of a cooler pirate captain! Ruling out Davy Jones and Barbossa, whom I love equally.

5 Interests  
Comment on this entry and I will pick 5 interests from your userinfo and ask you to explain them.

As picked by [info]i_like_popcorn

fanfiction
Why else? Fanfiction is the perfect excuse to pretend something happened in a fandom but didn't, speculate on what could have happened, or stick the characters in a completely different universe. The only problem with it is that you usually have to wade through all the teenybopper Mary-Sue crap to get to the diamonds. Still, it's almost always worth it.

roleplaying
For me, this is like writing original or fanfiction when you're lazy and you want someone to help you. Sometimes it's funner, because rather than organising the whole story yourself, you never really know how another person's character is going to react to your own character's words and actions. The funnest kind of roleplaying is done on forums, because they can go on forever and the story just keeps on building...

she: the ultimate weapon
Me and my sister borrowed this from the video shop one time. It's an anime series, and we pretty much fell in love with the graphics and the story. It's all about this girl whose body has been transformed to make her a powerful military weapon, and her relationship with this ordinary guy from school, while a big war is going on and all around them people are dying. In addition to an interesting storyline, the pictures are just beautiful.

someday's dreamers
Funny this, but this is the other anime series we borrowed from the video shop at the same time as She (see above). I think this is my preference of the two, though. It seems a little easier to get into, as there's more humour. I can barely remember hat it's about, but it centers around a girl who goes to this academy to learn how to control and give form to some sort of power she has, which she can use to help others. All the characters have their own little storylines. It's just fun.

thom filicia
Interestingly enough, I used to hate this man. He just grated my nerves. But if you watch enough of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, you're going to start to like all of them. So as much as he always laughs at his own, often unfunny, jokes, or has one of the most annoying gay voices I've ever heard, he just grew on me. He seems friendly, anyway.

Jack? Peter?  
Hello!

I'm reading a book in English called After the Last Death. It's about some terrorists taking control of a bus and holding the driver and children hostage, and is quite interesting. While reading this book I came across a name, mentioned in passing, which made me stop and reread: Captain Jack Harkness. So...Is it coincidence that he shares a name with Jack of Doctror Who and Torchwood (even if that Jack stole the name), or is Jack Harkness a real person, and Russel T Davis has just really done his homework before inventing his characters?

In other.l.matters. Did anyone see the two-part thriller The Best Man? It was on not so long ago, I think on ABC. Do you know if there is a DVD available, or did you make a recording you could send to me? I know it's unlikely, but worth a try, eh?

I'm pretty convinced I've got the coolest grandma in the world.
