Childhood

23. What is your earliest memory?
That’s a tough one. Um…probably our home and my parents.

25. Where did you learn most of your knowledge and skill?
She gave me the foundations, and my life and career has given me the rest.

26. How would you describe your childhood in general?
Rough times, but good times. Looking back, I wouldn’t change it.

Well, from the moment I met my mentor I wanted to fight. Before then, well I was too young to be thinking about it.

28. When and with whom was your first kiss?
Discounting my parents, I haven’t had one that wasn’t forced on me.

Probably founding my guild. The most lasting, anyway.

35. Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they?
I keep secrets, thank you.

36. What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
Define ‘evil’. Do you call murder evil? In what circumstances? Tough, isn’t it. I’m not evil.

37. When was the time you were the most frightened?
When I was just a child being hunted down by experienced killers. Hey you’d have been terrified too.

38. Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where?

Beliefs

39. What is your alignment?
Religion-wise? I don’t bother.

It varies, but usually pessimistic.

No need to worry about that ‘til I’m dead, now is there.

43. What is your greatest fear?
I am not telling you that. What you don’t know, you can’t sell to my enemies.

44. What makes your character angry? Sad? Happy? Why?
Angry: just about anything can set me off. I tend to just build up to berserker rages which can burst out at random times. Quite fun.
Sad: When someone I care about dies.
Happy: Success, victory. And being around children. What? Hey, I see that raised eyebrow there.

45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil?
I've seen both, and with several species around here, it's hard to call.

46. What are your views on politics? Religion? Sex?
Politics: I suppose I’d answer to the emperors if I had to, just because they’re stronger than me. But it obviously doesn’t come up. I’m top-dog, as it were, around here.
Religion: I’ve already answered that.
Sex: Well previous experience hasn’t been especially good. Again, see that ‘virginity’ question.

47. What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing?
*laugh* Oh I’m in all of the above up to my ears.

48. How far will you go to defend your beliefs?
Depends on the belief. Some, I’d die for. Most, I’d kill for.

49. How much do you value money?
I value it enough to keep myself fed. Most of my earnings now go to the guild coffers, but I keep enough for travel supplies and the occasional luxury expense. Hey, this demon likes her soft bed and pile of pillows.

50. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?
Ask a demon about evil. Most evil thing, I think, is the slaughter of innocents or destruction of the natural world.

Have to be one hell of a greater good.

55. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings?
Heh, oh I’ll tell you exactly what I think of you.

56. Do you have any biases or prejudices?
Not too many, and most of those are founded on extensive experience.

Dealing With Others

57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
Three people, not just one. Liana, my best friend; Zerris and Aishinar my partners in crime.

58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why?

The Clan (what I’ve been calling a guild). Best friend, as I’ve already mentioned, is Liana.

See above.

63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
Nope.

64. What do you look for in a potential lover?

65. How close are you to your family?
I was very close to my blood-family, and I’m equally close to my new family.

66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?
Well, being a hybrid, I’m sterile, so the whole children thing is out. I’m rather enjoying life on my own for now. We’ll see if a man manages to catch my attention.

67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
*laugh* Oh I’m always spoiling for a fight.

68. Are you a listener or a talker?
Both.

69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others?
I can tell when people are lying to me, so that helps. But it takes some time before I’ll truly trust someone (ie: trust them with my life).

70. Do you hold grudges?
Like you wouldn’t believe.

71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
I’m not big on social things, but yes. I’ve got a strong personality.

No. I dislike big crowds.

Not too good at talking about problems. I tend to express myself through actions. The style of fighting I choose at any given time says a lot about me, if you know what to look for.

74. How quickly do you judge others?
I try not to jump to conclusions, but it’s tough to get past a bad first impression with me.

75. Do you care what others think of you?
Not really. Don’t patronize me and keep your complaints to yourself, and we’ll be fine.

76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?
Yes. Many of them are already dead, but many still live.

Personal Taste and Opinions

77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession?
Pastime: Fighting. Yes, I’m obsessive.
Color: Red and black.
Food: Good red meat. The rarer, the better.

78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?
Hm, I am partial to good music. Tried a few instruments myself.

79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?
*snort* If I’m going to die young, I’d rather it be honorably on a sword. I’ll drink on occasion, but it’s not threat since I can burn poisons out of my blood. I don’t use any kind of drugs because I always want to be in full possession of my wits and speed.

80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
Depends if I’m on a job or not. Could be anywhere.

81. What is your most cherished fantasy?
To keep doing what I’m doing ‘til someone stronger than me manages to kill me.

82. How long is your attention span?
As long as it needs to be.

83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny?
Aye, I have a dark but lively sense of humor. I laugh at anything from raunchy jokes to slapstick. There’s an impressive amount of both in a mercenary/assassins guild.

84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what?
It’s pretty hard to really catch me off guard like that.

85. How do you deal with stress?
I kill things. Or just go do a severe work-out, whatever I have time for.

86. How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic?
My athletic ability is pretty impressive. Demons can top humans anyway, but I’m well up there even for a demon. Artistic…not so much. Again, just a little dabbling in music.

87. Do you like animals? Do you like children?
Yes, love both.

88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
Heh, I’m spontaneous. Much to the dismay of my friends.

89. What are your pet peeves?
Strong smells, loud noises, people pulling my ears or tail. To name a few.

Self-Image

Introverted until I get to know someone.

93. Do you like yourself?
Yes.

94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted?
My days change so much, I can’t keep a routine. I try to at least keep a schedule of a couple meals a day, a bath and training.

95. What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime?
Huh, I really live day-to-day.

96. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?
Right where I am now.

97. If you could choose, how would you want to die?
I’ll die when someone can kill me. I don’t want to get old and die of sickness or age, locked in a crippled body.

98. What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death?
I’m already a living legend. No one can match my skill, and no one else living managed to master black hell-fire.

Fiery, strong, loyal.
