100 questions - Narglii

Sat Jan 3, 2009, 4:39 AM
LOLWUT UPDAET?

How linked me to [link] and I'm as most people won't care to read it all I'm submitting it here and will just put a few important things on my main account in a less question, answer, type way.

Anyway.

I kinda had to answer FOR her instead of AS her. My characters' voices have been slightly cut off recently... =<


Part 1: The Basics

1. What is your full name? Narglii. Real name has been wiped for security measures, and is unknown. She'll be allowed to get it back, and have access to all her memories when she retires.

2. Where and when were you born? Somewhere in the village of Tippa. (They're allowed to know their home town but not much more)

3. Who are/were your parents? (Know their names, occupations, personalities, etc.) Information on relatives is restricted until they are dying and/or dead. Final goodbyes, going to funerals, etc is allowed, but it's rare that any other contact is allowed with them knowing they're related.

4. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like? [As above.]

5. Where do you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people. In the high class recruit lodgings area, sharing the house/thing with Pargile and Porpora. Basically, the recruits are given a virtual space, to mess around with as they want to. They're actually just basically small rooms, but function kinda like a holodeck if I remember my trek correctly. Upon entering the room, they're put into storage, their houses are just based off of their collective memories and thoughts, so update as they think about them. The basic structure is pre-programmed, and can't be edited while anyone's in there though, so they don't suddenly like.. warp as you walk through them.

6. What is your occupation? Porodian - Top level recruit - team leader.

7. Write a full physical description of yourself. You might want to consider factors such as: height, weight, race, hair and eye colour, style of dress, and any tattoos, scars, or distinguishing marks. I think I draw her enough to avoid having to do most of this... Height is 172CM, weight I have no idea, race is Porodian, the rest I draw often enough for you to know that.

8. To which social class do you belong? Top level recruit. That's... I guess kinda like... secret agent/spy, so whatever you'd count them as.

9. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses? Mental weakness I guess. If her ears or arms aren't covered when she's in public she obsesses about covering them up, and if she can't she gets quite paranoid and fidgety and stressed out, and will start shouting at people, becoming overly defensive and blah. If something is around her neck, like... clothing, necklaces, or if someone's clinging on, or grabbing her around the neck (like... a choke hold or whatever) then she will become majorly panic-ful. If someone's grabbing her she'd most likely thrash around furiously trying to get out, and get scared or angry. If something was put around her neck, like a collar (I dunno XD) that she couldn't get off, she'd scratch at it, sitting in the corner. If her arms/ears were exposed at the same time, she'd probably just give up, wrap her tail around her and cry. The areas she's sensitive about are illustrated here: [link]

10. Are you right- or left-handed? Right.

11. What does your voice sound like? ...a voice. wtf?

12. What words and/or phrases do you use very frequently? She drags out parts of her speech, like makes lots of "mmm"s and stuff, and stops and starts a lot (grammatical explanation - uses a lot of full stops instead of commas). Like instead of being like "I dunno, what do you think?" she'd be like "mmmmmIiiiiiiii dunno. What do you think?" or something.

13. What do you have in your pockets? In her normal pockets, nothing. She has a pocket plane pocket installed though, and that generally has a fuck load of food in. Just incase she gets snacky.

14. Do you have any quirks, strange mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics? She'll much on something whenever given the opportunity. Basically eating all the time, whether it's an apple, bag of crisps, piece of shortcake, whatever. She has a large amount of storage in her pocket plane pocket, and restocks it often.


Part 2: Growing Up



15. How would you describe your childhood in general? All she's allowed to remember of it is what happened in the training facility, which is like... 8 onwards.

16. What is your earliest memory? First day at the training facility. Taking the self manipulation courses with Finny, being scared of Porpora C1 and Vybe, thinking Gelehna was cool (a lot has changed lololol) and wondering why Goshava was so quiet. Pargile was in a lower class at the time, so she wouldn't have known of him.

17. How much schooling have you had? She would've been to a pre-training school I guess, and learned like... a little bit about everything so she could see what she liked and was good at and should take in recruit training. Then... the actual recruit training. She'd have had 8 years of actual related training, with side classes on various other things like... clothesmaking and material weaving and stuff like that (incase they were off-world, and their binders were destroyed somehow), lots of languages and etiquette stuff for various cultures on various planets, strategy, anatomy of alien races, all that kinda stuff. The bases of the informations are uploaded to them, but they still have to 'learn' them, for it to take proper effect. Learning time is pretty much reduced to one session per thing to learn though, they're like... given the information, and the lessons are just on how to use them. Forgetting things isn't really possible in that way.

18. Did you enjoy school? She did.

19. Where did you learn most of your skills and other abilities? The training facility...

20. While growing up, did you have any role models? If so, describe them. She wanted to be kinda like The Captain I guess. The captain is the one in charge of the recruit thinginess. She was the first successfully reborn subject when the rebirtherisers were being made, so she's technically the oldest Porodian there is, even though during the Events of the Main Shadow Wing story she's probably about 30 years into her current thing.

21. While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family? N/A

22. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I'm going to assume these include from when she entered the facility... so... she wanted to be a high level recruit. She wanted to be a like... stay at home ordering people around type person at first, but then realised how boring it'd be and decided that she'd be on a team with Finny and Gelehna. As time went on though, she started getting on less with Gelehna, then Pargile appeared in their class, and blah blah blah.

23. As a child, what were your favourite activities? Various forms of running and jumping and very mobile things. Sparring too I guess. And eating. She always liked eating.

24. As a child, what kinds of personality traits did you display? Hyperactive, easily bored... kinda ADHD I guess? She calmed down a bit over time though, and became a lot more daydreamey and distant.

25. As a child, were you popular? Who were your friends, and what were they like? She wasn't really... popular... at all until quite late on in the whole thing. She was mainly just friends with Finny, then with Pargile after he appeared for a while, who was friends with Porpora, who she then realised wasn't as scary as she thought, and then they were all friends, but Gelehna got kinda kickbanned for being a douche. Goshava floated between them and Gelehna, but stuck more with Gelehna.

26. When and with whom was your first kiss? Probably Finny.

27. Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity? Probably Pargile.

28. If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. If you are just a normal human, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today. Uhm... She's a Porodian... Porodians are like... an offshoot of humans, but like... not... solid... things... they were basically forced to evolve by a huge spurt and they never really caught up with themselves, so despite being incorporeal and not actually having like... nerves, organs, etc; they still mimic a lot of the functions. Part of the training facility's training is to learn to manipulate themselves - they start by making clothes with themselves, layering them to be over any actual things they have on, then weaponry, how to control the placebo effect (so they don't feel anything by mistake when attacking/defending with the weapons), then more advanced things, like manipulating heat, consistency, and how to use that to affect the surroundings, resulting in what I'm reluctant to call 'magic' and stuff. Anyway. They have to train to not feel pain, and to ignore things like... walls, and gravities, and heats and stuff. They can't fully get over things like pain, and all the various forces, but they can phase through most fully solid things if they want without much effort.


Part 3: Past Influences



29. What do you consider the most important event of your life so far? ...I guess that'd be enlisting to join the facility.

30. Who has had the most influence on you? Finny or Pargile.

31. What do you consider your greatest achievement? Being joint top team leader.

32. What is your greatest regret? Well I guess she wouldn't really know it, but being captured by the disgruntled ex-inventor.

33. What is the most evil thing you have ever done? Making the choice to exclude Gelehna, which pretty much fucked her up.

34. Do you have a criminal record of any kind? Well at the level she's at, even if she did somethign illegal it'd be overlooked... So... no.

35. When was the time you were the most frightened? That'd be when she was captured and used for torturous experiments. But she doesn't remember that.

36. What is the most embarrassing thing ever to happen to you? They kind of have embarrassment lessened when they become recruits so they don't have much to come between them and the mission (that's why she's at a disadvantage with her drawbacks about her neck, ears and arms issues), so I guess it'd have been something from before she graduated. She probably screwed up in clothes generation training and ended up nekkid in front of the whole class or something.

37. If you could change one thing from your past, what would it be, and why? Not to have been captured lol 8D Then she wouldn't have dumb issues. BUT SHE DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT LOL.

38. What is your best memory? I guess that'd be when she was appointed joint top leader thing, and knew that she was at least doing something right.

39. What is your worst memory? The whole torture bit. That's been blocked out though.

Part 4: Beliefs And Opinions



40. Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic? Pessimistically optimistic. Assume the worst, so if it doesn't happen, you feel so much better for it.

41. What is your greatest fear? The whole neck, arms, ears thing. I guess it'd be losing her friends and family, but that's not... technically possible.

42. What are your religious views? Well her homeworld is the residence of what could be referred to as a 'God', and there's a scientific explanation for it. So she's reserving her opinions until she can ask it a thing or two.

43. What are your political views? Mind control honestly isn't that bad? Porodians don't really have political parties or anything. If the best choice isn't agreed with, then the people who disagree have their opinions changed.

44. What are your views on sex? It's fun.

45. Are you able to kill? Under what circumstances do you find killing to be acceptable or unacceptable? If it'll stop more killing, then it's fine. If it serves no purpose then it's not fine. Its better to save victims than make them. (who knows though, maybe that's not her opinion at all)

46. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do? Any human? As in any one human? Make the decision to stop producing jaffa cakes.

47. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love? Yup.

48. What do you believe makes a successful life? Achieving happiness without causing unhappiness.

49. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings (i.e. do you hide your true self from others, and in what way)? Up until a point she hides things, but then they just blurt out. She's easy to read if you mention something enough times.

50. Do you have any biases or prejudices? They're not allowed any major ones, due to their clients being the whole of the known universe, but she still has general ones. Personal ones are allowed, like "I like this person", "I do not like this person" but they can't be like... "I have never met this person, but they are of a certain race so must suck".

51. Is there anything you absolutely refuse to do under any circumstances? Why do you refuse to do it? Have things around her neck, expose her arms and ears. Arms and ears are only ever seen by Finny, Pargile, Porpora, and the lady Cs. Well people saw them before she developed the issues about it, but I mean NOW.

52. Who or what, if anything, would you die for (or otherwise go to extremes for)? She wouldn't give her life for family or friends, because there's no real situation where she'd have to. If however, her death could prevent a significant amount of people dying, as in, more than she could save by living, then she'd start considering it. It'd be kinda stupid though, 'cause they can only really die of old age, so whoever was like "Narglii dies or I blow up this planet" or whatever would have to wait around a couple hundred years... It's not really the best hostage situation.


Part 5: Relationships With Others



53. In general, how do you treat others (politely, rudely, by keeping them at a distance, etc.)? Does your treatment of them change depending on how well you know them, and if so, how? Polite distance as a standard, but it depends on the person... if they're not someone she likes, then she'll slip in some sarcasm occasionally, if it's someone she's comfortable with she'll tease them more, blah blah blah.

54. Who is the most important person in your life, and why? Finny, Pargile and Porpora. Choosing one isn't really an option.

55. Who is the person you respect the most, and why? Finny, because she never needed to be an achiever to be happy.

56. Who are your friends? Do you have a best friend? Describe these people. Her social circle consists of Pargile, Narglii, Finny, C1, Vybe, Gelehna and Goshava. Although Gelehna is only there because Goshava won't be there without her. Elven comes into it when they all meet her as well. I think Finny counts as 'best friend', Parg and Pora count as... spouse/significant other, as the next question says.

57. Do you have a spouse or significant other? If so, describe this person. Parg and Pora.

58. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened. Well Porodians don't really separate the kinds of love they experience. Platonic love and family love kinda mingle together, hence why they don't really restrict themselves to one ';partner'. Though Pargile, Narglii and Porpora are technically a... trio? few? whatever 'couple' is for three people. Anyway. Though they're technically a trio, there also exists Narglii and Finny, Porpora and the lady Cs, on another layer Narglii and Pargile, who work out as the offworld, rebirth spy type couple, Pargile and Porpora... basically Parg, Narg, Pora, Finny and the lady Cs overlap in many different ways. As well as those, the lady Cs and the non-lady C make a trio, Finny and Elven end up as a couple and Gelehna and Goshava are a couple (one of the few exclusive ones, because Gelehna refuses to share Goshava with her 'enemies', so he's not allowed to overlap, and no one else can stand Gelehna for long periods of time. Which is another reason she won't let him join in their reindeer games.). They're technically restricted to trios, for child-bearing purposes, so like... official partnerings are always two or three people, but actual families don't really have any kind of socially implied restriction. Monogamy is not their way.

59. What do you look for in a potential lover? A place for them to fit into the equation. The more the merrier. It's incredibly unlikely anyone else will turn up any time soon, for various reasons, but hey.

60. How close are you to your family? Never a moment apart.

61. Have you started your own family? If so, describe them. If not, do you want to? Why or why not? Refer to #58

62. Who would you turn to if you were in desperate need of help? Most likely Finny first.

63. Do you trust anyone to protect you? Who, and why? All those mentioned in #58 for obvious reasons.

64. If you died or went missing, who would miss you? All those mentioned in #58 for obvious reasons.

65. Who is the person you despise the most, and why? Gelehna for holding Goshava back in more ways than one, for her immense vanity, for the way she deals with people, and because she's just generally hate-able.

66. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict? It's not possible to argue with Narglii. Through a combination of word twisting, semantic suggestions, sexual intimidation(?) and general passiveness, she makes it impossible for people to argue with her. So technically she avoids conflict by winning.

67. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations? In social situations she lets other people take control and just goes with the flow. She only takes charge in work related situations.

68. Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Why or why not? She's fine being involved, so long as no one tries to force her to participate. She'll join in if she feels like it at the time, and if she doesn't she'll just enjoy the background noise and listen to people witter away.

69. Do you care what others think of you? Friends and people she has to work with a lot - definitely. Other people - depends what they're like. If they're the kind of person she likes, she'll try to make a good impression, if she doesn't like their attitude, she'll openly try to make things awkward for them.


Part 6: Likes And Dislikes



70. What is/are your favourite hobbies and pastimes? Eating, orgies, various forms of horrible athletic things... aggravating Gelehna... aggravating people in general... just... stuff.

71. What is your most treasured possession? Her inter-dimensional pocket. It's about the only possession that's actually a possession. The rest are people, parts of herself, or programs that can be loaded up from just about anywhere on the planet. And on other planets.

72. What is your favourite colour? Finny Pa- I mean orange, blue and purple. LOL GUESS WHY LOL.

73. What is your favourite food? Jaffa cakes and crisps.

74. What, if anything, do you like to read? Nothing in particular.

75. What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)? Movies and music are top of the list. So long as they're group activities. She gets lonely easily, so doesn't tend to do things on her own if she can help it.

76. Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit? Well none of those would have the same effect on her, so there's not much point. She can just edit her programming to do things while she's in her 'house'.

77. How do you spend a typical Saturday night? There's not really any kind of a schedule.. so... whatever.

78. What makes you laugh? Anything with good timing.

79. What, if anything, shocks or offends you? Gelehna's vanity.

80. What would you do if you had insomnia and had to find something to do to amuse yourself? Well given that they don't actually sleep and just set themselves into stasis for a while, insomnia isn't really an option.

81. How do you deal with stress? By getting someone else to help her.

82. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan? Depends what the situation is. Most of the time in work related issues she'll plan ahead, but if something unexpected arises she'll just be spontaneous. And in general life it's pretty much entire spontinuity, or latching onto other peoples' plans.

83. What are your pet peeves? Gelehna's vanity, Gelehna's manipulating Goshava, general Gelehna-ness, and... other things.

Part 7: Self Images And Etc.



84. Describe the routine of a normal day for you. How do you feel when this routine is disrupted? There isn't really one... get up whenever, do whatever, see whoever, just... whatever.

85. What is your greatest strength as a person? As a person, she's a good like... calmerer... like... if something bad is going to occur between people she'll be able to calm it down and produce a happier... feeling? Unless Gelehna is involved, in which case she just makes it worse... but yeah, she's very much in control of the situation, whether anyone realises it or not. Most often not.

86. What is your greatest weakness? As a person? despite being able to calm a lot of situations down when bad things are about to happen, she can also cause a lot of bad things to happen. Whether it be through clumsiness, pushing someone too far, or her generally bad taste in just about everything.

87. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? To not have the ears, arms, neck, shoulders knees and toes, knees and toes, issues.

88. Are you generally introverted or extroverted? It varies. Most of the time she'll be quiet, and float along with the situation, letting other people do the talking, but when she does take her turn she can be quite hyperactive over it.

89. Are you generally organized or messy? Messy.

90. Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at. Good at judging people, good at making people cheerful, and good at controlling a situation. Bad at faking good intentions/respect/whatever, bad at feeling good about herself unless she's achieved something or been reminded of it, and she has generally bad taste in things.

91. Do you like yourself? Yes.

92. What are your reasons for being an adventurer (or doing the strange and heroic things that RPG characters do)? Are your real reasons for doing this different than the ones you tell people in public? (If so, detail both sets of reasons...) Because it was the most fun opportunity for a life she had. Her choices were that, living on Porados practically to serve the people who did choose to become recruits and wondering why she didn't do that, or going offworld before she was 10 to try and make her way in one of the alien social environments instead (which involved leaving Finny behind, so she didn't quite fancy that). Once she got into it though she found it was actually quite rewarding and she was quite good at it.

93. What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime? Being a part of raising a child without having to give up her job.

94. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? About the same place?

95. If you could choose, how would you want to die? Happily? They can only really die of old age, so... Well if that wasn't a restriction, she'd probably prefer to die doing something hilarious that'd make people laugh when they thought about it so they wouldn't be sad.

96. If you knew you were going to die in 24 hours, name three things you would do in the time you had left. Tell everyone she didn't like everything she didn't like about them, tell everyone she loved everything she loved about them, and have lots and lots of sex.

97. What is the one thing for which you would most like to be remembered after your death? For being all kinds of awesome.

98. What three words best describe your personality? If there was a nice way of saying manipulative - it'd be that, passive, and eccentric.

99. What three words would others probably use to describe you? Dozy, bizarre, and deceptive.

100. If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character? (You might even want to speak as if he or she were sitting right here in front of you, and use proper tone so he or she might heed your advice...) Give Gelehna a good smack, that'll shut her up. >:[
