I Am A: Neutral Good Human Wizard (2nd Level)

Ability Scores:
Strength-12
Dexterity-11
Constitution-10
Intelligence-16
Wisdom-12
Charisma-12

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 when it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.

Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.

Class:
Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells, everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar- a small, magical, animal companion that serves her. With a high Intelligence, wizards are capable of casting very high levels of spells.

I think I got Lawful Good Paladin years ago. XD ...I've become a lot more cynical (particularly regarding politics) since then, though, so I'm actually surprised I scored so high on that front, relatively speaking.

[I gave neutral answers to the sexual questions on account of not actually having had sexual interactions with people. Pity there was no "N/A" option.]

...I'm very in-touch with my feelings. Clearly this is inaccurate. >_> Not that said navel-gazing internal examinations and self-analysis are overdeveloped compensation mechanisms or anything like that. Why, the very idea...

Sunshine came softly through my window today
Words of love, so soft and tender
Jesus is just all right with me
What would you do if I sang out of tune?
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
Music makes pictures and often tells stories
He trusted in God; let Him deliver him, let Him deliver him, if He delights in him
There are places I remember
Oh, thinking about our younger years
In a world so far away, at the end of a closing day

...In retrospect, the Handel's Messiah piece really threw off the whole thing. ._. Let's... um... try again, shall we?

Comment with a character name and I'll rate my:

Attraction level: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10

Love for the Character: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10

 

How much the char has grown on me: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10

 

Badassness level: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10

 

How upset I’d be if the char got killed off: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10

First, write down the names of 12 characters of your choice. Then read and answer the questions. You can't look at the questions until you write down the 12 characters you're going to use. Otherwise where would the fun be?

1. Claire Redfield
2. Chris Redfield
3. Steve Burnside
4. Alfred Ashford
5. Alexia Ashford
6. Albert Wesker
7. Alexander Ashford
8. Leon Kennedy (honorable mention)
9. William Birkin (honorable mention)
10. Jill Valentine (honorable mention)
11. Manuela Hildago (vaguely honorable mention)
12. Ashley Graham (memetically LEON HAAAAALP mention)


( o_o I didn't know Ashley would come up so often... )

As a warning, I am on restricted internet capacity right now. Not that it matters for any other reason than that the videos linked have not been checked for flashing lights. As such, if you're sensitive, just click the links and switch to a different tab. My apologies.

In conclusion? I apparently like emo songs with hyperactive beats. :D;; I also am easily bought off by ***steady*** percussion, good choruses, and smooth singing. Complex lyrics preferred, but, if the band's Nightwish or Celtic Woman, they don't even have to be intelligible, much less intelligent. I also like contrasts of high and low sounds.

Sorry for the shorter descriptions further down on the list, but I'm not as passionate about the less-listened-to songs. Er... more song recs to follow to compensate, I guess.

(This is actually a lot funnier than it sounds...
Also, when I put it like this, I realize that I might fall uncomfortably close to the 'Stalking is romantic! :D' category...)

Yanked from gehayi : Take the first lines of your last ten stories and run each of them through Translation Party until they reach equilibrium, or until the program gives up on you. Post the results.

Yes, I last did this back in 2009.

The original lines are back here.
( Incarnation of the legal edge naive justified slavery abolition of her final release: means any slaves. )

And now, since I already had 21 lines laid out, for a bonus round!

( Associated with effective drunken driving missions often put the risk of multiple generations or weak one breast pain. )

And now, how about you?

(As a bonus bonus, given the theme of my journal:
Disturb not the harmony of Fire, Ice, or Lightning lest these three Titans wreck destruction upon the world in which they clash. Though the water's Great Guardian shall arise to quell the fighting alone its song will fail. Thus the Earth shall turn to ash. O, Chosen One, into thine hands bring together all three. Their treasures combined tame the beast of the sea.
->
3 These began operation non-destructive ice Titan Thunder doom, world harmony crash. To quell the fighting failed to cause a great guardian of the water just a song. Therefore, you must enable ash to Earth. O all brings together choice 3. Join the 飼いならします treasure mammal.

Don't you want to join the 飼いならします treasure mammal?)

* Good GAD, am I pretentious.

* Apparently my main characters have an irritating amount of trust issues.

* 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 17, 19, and 21 all qualify as dark!fic. I think I'm mildly justified in joking about my being a one-note author. :P
** Again - that's everything but 5, 6, 11, 15, 16, and 20. Of those, 5 is shipping, 6 is humor, 11 and 20 may end up darkfics for everyone but the protagonists, the final line of 15 leads into canon darkness, and 16 is middling-dark commentary on canon. So only two of those are completely clean.

* 1, 5, 6, and 8 contain pairings as major plot points. 3, 7, 10, and 14 contain pairings as something relevant to the main characters. For the rest, pairings are incidental at best. ...I am really NOT much of a shipficcer, am I?

* 2, 5, 7, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, and 21 are AUs. Canon, whot iz dat? :P (That's nearly 2/3rds AUs, if you're wondering.)

*TL;DR: I write a lot of cynical, pretentious genfic/darkfic with alienated, emotionally-scarred main characters. ...Excellent. Now I just have to figure out a good originalfic plotline, and I'll take the angsty-teenager market by storm. >:D

Post the first lines of your last 21 fics.

Note that these may not actually be the last 21 fics I've WRITTEN, just the last 19 posted on my AO3, one posted elsewhere, and another currently unposted.

( Cut for gore in #7. It was relevant to the fic, really. )

Click on the image to find out which one you are! :D;; *breathes fire upon the land*

All right, less uncertainty. Time to B.S. my way through anything I don't know. Banzai!
( And heaven help me if I ever try to figure out the Ginny/Luna/Neville OT3 version. )

Good heavens, I didn't even notice the first time that it specified "non-lovemaking activities". XD Someone must have been traumatized by too many Anita-Blakeish heroines...( Oink? )

Just for ease-of-copying, the questions:
What sorts of non-lovemaking activities and such did your characters bond over?
What sorts of non-lovemaking activities do they do together?
What kinds of things do they talk about when they're together?
What dreams and goals do they share?
What dreams and goals do they have that they do not share?
How many children does each partner want? Have they discussed this? If not, why?
What other plans do they have for the future? Which ones have they discussed? Why and/or why not?
What are the most difficult situations they have faced together so far? How did they overcome them?
What are some of their best memories together so far?
What things do they do that get on each others' nerves?
What views do your characters disagree on? How do they reconcile their differences in opinions?
What sorts of things did they or do they get into arguments or fights over?
How do they reconcile after arguments or fights?
How do they each react when the other is in pain or is troubled? What do they do to help the other?
What is the biggest potential threat to their relationship? What is the most likely threat?
What would each partner be willing to change about xirself for the other? What wouldn't they be willing to change for each other?

And now let's answer them.

( My excuse for the negative parts being much more detailed than the positive ones is that I take the positive parts as self-evident, so, er... First World OTPer Problems? *dodges rotten tomatoes* )

Wow. Er. One person definitely peels away from the rest of the pack, that's for sure. O_o

( Who comments the most on this journal? )

Ha ha ha, man, look at that personality spike...

MULTIFANDOM AU DRABBLE MEME

C'mon, the prompts are free-for-all! I've even filled a few...

Apparently, I know about 35,700 words.

1. Wizardmon (Digimon)
2. The entire Nergal-Aenir-Ninian-Nils family, damnit Kishuna (Fire Emblem)
3. C!Syaoran & C!Sakura (Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle)
4. Saturos & Menardi (Golden Sun) [really, all the Proxians deserved more recognition than they got...]
5. Padme Amidala (Star Wars prequels)*

*And by that, I mean that I wish she had received ANY sort of dignified ending. Anything other than being consigned to a role as a walking uterus, and being carelessly discarded by the plot once she had fulfilled that purpose. I don't even care about Padme, but that was just low.


I don't quite wish the Dumbledores had gotten a happier ending, because their angst is what fuels the whole thing. ...Okay, the same could be said of a certain mixed-species family in Fire Emblem, but the whole plot repeatedly kicks you in the heartstrings once you learn exactly what's going on... *sigh*

Anyway... now for yours? :D

 1. [Black Burst Dragon] Michael (Legend of Dragoon)
 2. Generic characters that survive for too long (Any tactics game)
 3. Ariana Dumbledore (Harry Potter)
 4. Aenir (Fire Emblem 7)
 5. Marionette Bloom (Dragon Quest IX)

And if I went into detail on all the *mostly* minor characters I paid disproportionate attention to, we'd be here all day...

1. Farina (Fire Emblem 7) [You HAVE to ask?]
2. L'Arachel (Fire Emblem 8) [and she would drag Rennac along with her, too]
3. Team Rocket (Pokemon)
4. any Fortune Sim (The Sims 2)
5. Link (Majora's Mask)

...At least, mine did stuff like that when I was maxing out his wallet capacity... >_>
