Kei

I had most of this written out and then Sweet Tart came along and had a better way of doing it, so I rewrote it like that because I agree that it's something that can have very differing answers from what they say and what is reality, especially with characters who have some cognitive dissonance or worse.

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

In roughly chronological order...Segami, Mysti, Naiad, Aldair, Yae, Xinna.

(Pretty much just that. Her mentor, the best Druid, taught her about the world she was being naive about, long lost potential friend and steadfast in her own faith, a reminder of her past, and a great Bard combat teacher.)

How do you generally treat others?

With due respect, whether they have earned it or not. The form of that respect changes as my affiliation has, though never the intent, and I have seen it in action that proper respect and occasional deference blunts even bigoted misers.

(She really misses swearing with Taraus, though.)

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

My century or so of service to the Earthmother, right up until Her...demise...around 315 AF. Everything after has been a bit...rocky. That's looking up with my marriage and achievement of Deaconess, though.  

(They really are, although direct service to the Divine pretty much always trumps because Divine.)

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Absinthe.

(Memories of Gaia's embrace. Absinthe helps, though, and her wife's embrace.)

What is your dream occupation?

...I don't know.

(Being in a Divine Order again and gaining rank there. Beyond that, hell, I dunno.)

What is your most treasured possession?

My wedding ring.

(Her old Gaian pendant, the ring is second, and her brand and back scar are tied for third.)

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

Quiet places to think.

(The Temples of Nature, Art, and Vengeance, as she feels more at home and at peace there than anywhere else, for various reasons. Divine Temples in general, really.)

When and where were you the happiest?

A long time ago, in the embrace of a loved one...and recently, in the embrace of another.

(See the perfect happiness question. Related, when she was absolutely sure of her path without doubt, which got all thrown off around when I quit the game, so it never really got 'fixed' yet...oops, fixing now. The second part, though, would be when she was sitting on Zanzibaar and proposed to Marina, which is entirely true; she was elated then.)

What is your most marked characteristic?

I am the only Greywards to walk the face of Sapience.

(Her smile is also pretty notable, when she can keep an honest and happy one even in Mhaldor.)

What is it that you most dislike?

Willful ignorance.

(Ignorance isn't being stupid, as I loved to believe as a kid, but being unaware of something. She hates it when someone refuses to make themselves aware of things, especially when they start passing judgement on those things.)

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

I have no cause for fear anymore.

(Losing herself, or finding that she is such a different person than who she believes she is that she can't recognize herself anymore.)

What is your greatest extravagance?

My tarot decks and scabbards.

(She collects both, and is probably the most extravagant thing she has.)

Who do you most despise?

Ashtani.

(Specific Ashtani, the ones that beat her down emotionally a long time ago, for no reason she could see other than shits and giggles. I don't hate today's Ashtani at all ...well, maybe one or two.)

What is your greatest regret?

That I am not a Longshanks.

(Not joining a family is a big one, for sure, but so is the way she treated her friends so long ago when they reached out to help her.)

Which talent would you most like to have?

Strength.

(Surety of self and purpose, freed from doubt and fear.)

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

Weakness.

(More like cowardice and insecurity, and fear of making enemies.)

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Blindness.

(Generally just anything someone does without real thought or good reason at all -- blind hate, blind lust, etc.)

What do you most value in your friends?

Loyalty.

(She's lost more than a few doing dumb things, but those who stick with her are truly treasured.)

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Forgiveness.

(With one specific person's exception, yup. She doesn't forgive, she seeks to understand.)

On what occasions do you lie?

I don't.

(Only to herself, she tells what she sees as the truth to everyone else.)

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

Aye, indeed.

("I see" is also common for her, but "Aye" and "Indeed" are tops.)

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

My ...hair.

(While she's cut her hair drastically shorter a few times -- it used to be down to her ankles even in a braid -- and even dyed it, the better answer is her heart, and the pain she feels inside. My forum avatar was not an accident or a whim )

How would you like to die?

With dignity.

(With dignity.)

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I do not dream anymore.

(Actually fairly accurate, she doesn't dream peacefully these days when she does sleep.)

Describe your worst nightmares.
No.

(Dreams of the forests turned to ash at her hands, and ripping out the heart of her old Grove and enjoying it.)

Ruth

I enjoy reading the different virtues each person values in their friends. It speaks a lot of the character's personality and the people they tend to enjoy gathering around them.

More!

Anedhel

Ironically, the stuff I've enjoyed reading the most is about enemies/non-acquaintances. It's fascinating to get a glimpse of people you'd never ordinarily get to know in-game in such a non-biased way! (Not that I can do anything with it, it's just fascinating)

Harmonia

Do you, or did you, have any role models?
- No. To make someone a role model places too much on them. However, I give Lord Apollyon and many Mhaldorians credit for leading me to the Seven Truths.

- I extend respect to my fellow citymates and to the lost heathens and heretics.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?
- My proteges.

- There is no such thing as perfect happiness. This is an illusion for those of the Eastern side of the continent.

What is your dream occupation?
- I serve the Will of the Lord Sartan

What is your most treasured possession?
- To let go of worldly possessions is to embrace Suffering.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

What is your most marked characteristic?
-Clasping my hands before me.

What is it that you most dislike?
- I have pity, not dislike, for those who refuse His Truths.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?
- Mhaldorians live without fear. We embrace our experiences and learn from them.

What is your greatest extravagance?
-Gowns

Who do you most despise?
-Again, I do not despise anyone. I pity the blind and deaf who do not See or Listen to His Truths.

What is your greatest regret?
-I haven't any regrets. Each step led me to my destiny in the West.

Which talent would you most like to have?

- I do not dream.

Describe your worst nightmares.
- I do not have nightmares either.

Saeva

Do you, or did you, have any role models?
- I have had various people who I have looked to as role models in different aspects of my life. My mother Melodie has been someone I look up to for her patience and her teaching spirit which are virtues that continually fail me. My mentor Hasar has been a living, breathing example of Mhaldorian Strength and has been an encouragement that drives me to push forward.

How do you generally treat others?
- I try to be cordial with those I don't know. Respectful to my superiors and to my peers. And I'm afraid I'm a bit swift to be nasty to those that fail to offer the same respect.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?
- I don't think that I have achieved it yet.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?
- The idea that the Lord would be pleased with my service to His city would be the ultimate fulfillment.. though I'm uncertain that achieving "perfect happiness" would be a positive experience or even possible.

What is your dream occupation?
- I do not know the answer to this. I like what I do now and would be content to learn many different skills.

What is your most treasured possession?
- My journal full of letters from various people from over the years. Most of them express disappointment in me and my choices.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?
- I travel all about to hunt. The Grukai swamp and Istarion mostly though, I suppose.

When and where were you the happiest?
- Again, I cannot say that happiness is necessarily something I have any reason to cling to. But once there was this ball in Cyrene..

What is your most marked characteristic?
- I often get told to eat more and to spend a bit more time in the sun. So maybe being a bit thin and pale.

What is it that you most dislike?
- I most dislike when people laud their own virtues. I like to see them fail the most when I hear such things.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?
- Perhaps the fear of failure or disappointing those I hold in high esteem.

What is your greatest extravagance?
- My wings.

Who do you most despise?
- Traitors

What is your greatest regret?
- Something far too personal to share with nearly anyone.

Which talent would you most like to have?
- I wish I had leadership abilities in combat. That is something that remains far beyond my reach.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

- My impatience and finding my foot in my mouth far too often.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?
- Arrogance or a sense of self-entitlement.

What do you most value in your friends?

- Privacy.. if you cannot keep obviously sensitive matters between us, between us, I will never keep you close.

- Forgiveness. Absolutely forgiveness.

On what occasions do you lie?

- I would rather say nothing than lie about anything.

- "Excellent"

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

- From eating too much of the rainbow pudding from Annwyn.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

- I dream about battle quite often.

- Placing retardation down in a battle and then not being able to move, at all. Not even sluggishly.

Ulrike

You can consider this mostly IC (IC, I would speak more formally of the Divine and certain historical events). I didn't feel like doing the two-in-one italics everywhere here, though.

Do you, or did you, have any role models?

Yig (somewhat from afar), Watchman, Wulfen. Kaset was where I got the idea of eschewing titles where possible. I looked up to people like Mistral, Tizzee, Aista, et al. who managed to make some waves back when Mhaldor was a tremendous sausage-fest.

With slightly acerbic politeness.

I have never betrayed my oaths.

Ulrike is short, pale and quasi-anorexic, and always wears a man's hat of some kind.

What is it that you most dislike?

When people I have a bond with leave my organizations.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

Apollyon [more or less] dying was one of them.

I'm not going to say my IC/OOC fears, because that will just encourage people to make them happen (and not in fun ways).

Heraldry, and the Peirasmos when I owned it.

Who do you most despise?

Traitors. The greater, the worse.

Not having had more protegés/family. Not having used my leadership tenures as fully as I could have. Not learning to play my beautiful stolen instrument while I had it.

Which talent would you most like to have?

I was always jealous of Apostates and envied their ritual magic. The same for Occultists and Alchemists, to a lesser extent.

Tillie

I may have fudged a bit of what Tillie said in an effort to meld both IC/OOC answers - but damn, she is a blabberface compared to some folks.

-covers her mouth in duct tape-

Malorn

honestly Malorn wasn't entirely truthful about everything(some times openly, sometimes not), I kinda regret not doing the IC and OOC thing now, but I'm not motivated enough to redo it.

I go dormant too often/don't accomplish anything big enough for anyone to care about me anyway.

Mishgul

Athelas

Yup, this one is IC, maybe a bit too IC.

Do you, or did you, have any role models?
The old hermit that saved my life in the Black forest, and raised me as his son. No, I don't know his name. He never spoke and passed to Thoth's domain, around my 18th birthday, he has not returned.

How do you generally treat others?
With Respect.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?
My work on Neutrality and getting it publish in libraries across Achaea.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?
A healthy forest.

What is your dream occupation?
None, being a Druid is not an Occupation, it's a way of life.

What is your most treasured possession?
I have no treasured possessions, I live a simple life.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?
I travel where I'm needed, so I don't really keep track of this.

Right here, right now.

What is your most marked characteristic?
My eyes. They are completely black. No, I'm not blind, they are simply black. No, I don't know why, so please stop asking.

Ashtan or Mhaldor, they change places regularly.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?
The destruction of forests.

What is your greatest extravagance?
During the reckoning, I bought a shirt to help me deal with the cold. I don't normally spend gold on things that aren't strictly necessary.
But I hated shivering all the time so I got the shirt just to take the bite out of the wind.

Who do you most despise?
Ayoxele, his exterminations p... leave me vexed. He's a f... retarded a... Yes, I despise the bastard!

What is your greatest regret?
The loss of two of my written works. My research and writing on the subject of Neutrality consisted of three volumes. Only the first was published broadly. The second and third volumes are now lost to me, although I know that the third volume has survived in part, in at least one library in Achaea, a library I don't have access too.
The second was entitled: "Good, Evil and Beyond."
The third was entitled: "Truth of Balance."
If you see them and are able to copy them in their entirety, I'd be very grateful if you would supply me with copies.
Each of the living gods, at the time of publishing, received a copy. Yes, even Lord @Sartan.

Which talent would you most like to have?
The divine ability to create forests and jungles

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?
My lack of courage. Yes, I'm a coward, I know it. I'm not proud of it.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?
Lack of respect for Nature.

What do you most value in your friends?
Courage

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?
There are no virtues that are overrated, many people over emphasise specific virtues though.

On what occasions do you lie?
When the lie protects Nature.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
The word: Right. I use it way to often to indicate that I'm ready to continue an action or discussion.
I also sigh a lot, even when I'm not in the company of others.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I'd love to be just a bit more courageous, a little more heroic, a little more daring.

How would you like to die?
In the arms of Gaia, right after destroying the last of either Mhaldor or Ashtan. I don't really care which, as long as it's the last of both of them.

Describe a typical dream you might have.
Serving Gaia at a picknic in my grove, on a beautiful spring morning.

Describe your worst nightmares.
Suffering Gaia's disfavour, being cast from the Druid house and being forcefully severed from my grove. Under these conditions, existence would be dark indeed.

Daeir said:

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Stubbornness, or getting defensive when the truth makes one uncomfortable.

(He is very likely to respond with dry, scathing remarks to unyielding people. Often very insulting and demeaning towards stubborn individuals, and will actively work to see their efforts diminished if possible.)

This makes a lot of sense, now.

Character questionnaire: 

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 
Rolemodels? Oh, yes, a lot. Probably more than I could possibly list...

How do you generally treat others?

Um, I hope kindly. Politely? Honestly, people sort of scare me, so probably that.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Graduating the jewellery path in the Virtuosi, I think. Maybe? Or becoming an aide to the ministry of trade in Cyrene. My jewellery license? I do not know. I have not really done much.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Being happy. I am not sure I understand the question

What is your dream occupation?

Oh, um, I cannot tell you that. It is a secret.

What is your most treasured possession?

My journal. I do not really own much.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

I spend a lot of time in Cyrene, but that is home, so it is not really travelling, is it? I guess... Moghedu? I spend a lot of time there for extracting. But I find myself in Caer Witrin or Hashan often to. Ashtan quite a bit. Um... can I say everywhere? Is that an okay answer?

When and where were you the happiest?

I do not really know.

What is your most marked characteristic?

People seem to notice I am shy pretty quickly, so probably that?

What is it that you most dislike?

People hurting my friends and family.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

My father finding me. Or being bad.

What is your greatest extravagance?

I have a bell that I bought for no reason. I just think it sounds pretty. I only buy the small cheap one though. I do not want to waste my gold.

Who do you most despise?

Myself, maybe? I do not really... despise people. I think.

What is your greatest regret?

Running away from father. 

Which talent would you most like to have?

I would really be okay with any talent. Something artistic would be nice. Or a good talent for helping people. That would be nice too.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

Mostly everything, I guess.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Not being happy? I think everyone should be happy.

What do you most value in your friends?

My friends.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Patience? I am not very good at waiting.

On what occasions do you lie?

Does not saying something count as a lie? I mean, if I was ever asked, I would tell, but sometimes I do not tell things without being asked. Is that lying?

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

I use um a lot, I think? Come to think of it, I say I think a lot. I apologize a lot, too. I have been told that.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

Everything? Nothing? I dislike myself, but my friends like me, so if I changed I may not have my friends or family. So why would I change?

How would you like to die?

I would not.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I turned back to go to father and the pygmies never came.

Describe your worst nightmares.
Being alone. Being bad. 

Kerria

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

@Nicca @Aeryi‌ @Aerek‌ @Irontounge @Czanthria‌ @Kardal‌ @Vendros @Kenway‌

How do you generally treat others?

To those I doesn't know I am quiet and respectful. To those who have irked me in some way, stern. Friendly I am open, and sometimes a bit silly. Close, I speak my mind, and hold them in the highest esteem.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Knighthood

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Standing before a mural in Cyrene, next to @Kardal‌ .

What is your dream occupation?
Minister of Security, or Shield Lord. Anything that serves the city and house.

What is your most treasured possession?
Kidlett, my faithful companion goat kid. He keeps my spirits up, and his training keeps me occupied when I have something better to do.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

I often travel to Clockwork, because it intrigues me, all the different, man-made creatures. Recently, though, I've traveled often to Tuar, and seek to solve the mystery there.

When and where were you the happiest?

The happiest day.. I remember was the day I received my Accolade, and the shortly after a wedding. Oh! But prior to that my first son @Lytwig was confirmed by the bloodline registry.

What is your most marked characteristic?

My Red hair and sense of duty. At least I hope it is. It may actually be that I'm short.

What is it that you most dislike?

I dislike when women, or men for that matter, would rather lay on their backs for valuables or coin than hunt, or fish, or attempt combat. It shows a remarkable lack of self respect and respect for others.
I also dislike it when people try and force me to eat sweets because they think that is all I do.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

Letting my city or house down. Cyrene is my home, I shall take care of her till my hand may raise no more. Shield is my hope for the future, and I will defend the house until my last breath. To let either of them down will break my heart.

What is your greatest extravagance?

This perfume necklace I bought this one time. I always have it on me. Just because I wear heavy armour does not mean I have to smell like it.

Who do you most despise?

No one- I am sad for those who have hurt Cyrene, my family, my friends or myself. I do not trust a few people, but it does not make me despise them.

What is your greatest regret?

Allowing a young man to use and abuse me for a long time, and taking so long to finally put my foot down and say 'no more'.

Which talent would you most like to have?

Oh, I suppose playing the lyre might be a nice talent, maybe singing.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

I am quiet, and introspective. I am also terribly formal to people I do not know fairly well, and often times I am considered bitchy, or people think I do not wish their company. Which is to day, I would like to get to know more people.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Dishonesty and laziness. As a Knight I always speak the truth, it is my oath, those who lie to me or fool me are not those who I wish to associate with. Being unwilling to work on yourself or for anything else also gives me less desire to seek you out as a companion in friendship. Also, "half-assing" does not constitute as working hard.

What do you most value in your friends?

Honesty and intelligence, both are what I surround myself with. I also value their smiles, even if a few of them are very hard to find at times.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Nonviolence. There may be those who choose the path to never harm anything, ever, but they will not defend themselves and they will not defend others. There will always be a need to be 'violent' to defend, least you become cattle to the slaughter.

On what occasions do you lie?

Never. Even when it comes to "harmless lies". Even the smallest lie can affect everyone around you. "Does this gown make my hips look too big?" The gown is unbecoming, perhaps try a color more suited for your complexion, blue almost always works.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

Well...
Enough.
Gremlins (code for Ninja needs me)
Paperwork. (sometimes also code for Ninja, but more often than not means something got messed up and I have to fix it.)

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

My ability to jump into the arena and learn combat easily. It's non existent, and aggravates me far too much.

How would you like to die?

Not often... oh. You mean die, die. Having lived many years, and married to my love for that much more. With my grandchildren's grandchildren grown and my heart full of the life I chose to lead.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I would have to rest to dream, and dreams are rare when there is much work to be done.

Describe your worst nightmares.
Forgetting what I am in the middle of doing and having to start over.

Alynna

All of this answered ICly.

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

Aringar was my first role model. Ryanna some time later, and then Lady Keresis after that.

How do you generally treat others?

Everyone is deserving of respect and politeness, until they prove themselves unworthy. Then all they get is contempt.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Understanding greater philisophic truths behind Vengeance and Evil as a whole.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

I live it now.

Disrespect.

I have no fears that I am aware of.

I have many regrets. They help make you grow.

I am very happy with who I am.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Irreverence.

What do you most value in your friends?

Honesty and loyalty.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

I do not have an answer for this.

On what occasions do you lie?

I am content with myself.

How would you like to die?

Irrelevant.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I do not sleep. Dreams are meaningless forms without reason.

Describe your worst nightmares.
Likewise with nightmares.

Tiax

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 
Neville "Moonie" Carnivalis and the other, unnamed, pioneers of jestering.

Guy

Malorn said:

Answering as Malorn IC.

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

Yes. My mentor, @Sachiel before he went dormant, @Morro ditto.

How do you generally treat others?

That greatly depends on the circumstances, that said, I suppose I try for kindness and respect generally.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

I have yet to achieve anything of note, and when I do, I am unlikely to tell anyone outside of the occultists.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Perfection is an unattainable dream for most, even if in a single thing. Doubly so for such an ephemeral concept as "happiness"

What is your dream occupation?

Other than being an occultist? I suppose I would not mind opening a shop someday.

What is your most treasured possession?

... friendship.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

Cyrene. I can't stand the culture, and find their arbitrary rejection of all occultists as citizens rather strange for people who claim to value respect, as well as their rejection of the orders of a list of several gods even as they threaten to eject anyone who so much as disrespects ANY divine.

...But the people are nice enough, and the city is pretty. mmm. Now if only they could actually defend the place.

When and where were you the happiest?

Why do you keep asking me about happiness? What is that even supposed to really mean, I wonder.

What is your most marked characteristic?

I suppose I am a rather suspiciously nice and soft-spoken Occultist... Make of that what you will.

What is it that you most dislike?

A rather large quantity of my fellow sirens. Specifically the ones who seem unable to keep their clothing on for more than a few minutes.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

That it will all be for naught.

What is your greatest extravagance?

Practical expense: My shield of absorption.
Other than that? Probably my purchases of tea and alcohol.

Who do you most despise?

I do not make enemies so easily and have not been active in the realms again for all that long. There are a great many people who irritate me greatly, most of whom are Mhaldorians or Shala- erm, Targossans, but no one whom I would really say I despise as of yet.

Thirty years ago I suppose it would have been @Guy. The insolent backstabbing cowardly brat.

What is your greatest regret?

My dormancy.

Which talent would you most like to have?

Reading others emotions better.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

I apologize too much.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Willful ignorance.

What do you most value in your friends?

That is a rather difficult question to answer. Apologies, I think that I will just leave it at that.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Faith.

On what occasions do you lie?

The very sentence which I am currently uttering is a lie.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

My apologies. mmm. Hmmm. *smiles softly*

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

My mortality for divinity.

How would you like to die?

I would really rather not but... mmm. I suppose something that furthers occultic knowledge would be good enough. Bonus points if it sinks Targossas or does something entertaining to a priest or two in the process as I go out. I think so small I know.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

No.

Describe your worst nightmares.
No.

Yay! Your welcome!

Guy

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

That one awesome Runewarden of Targossas who is a boss.

How do you generally treat others?

Distantly.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Surviving raids when I have no clue what is actually going on.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Loving all things and all people genuinely and compassionately, or lots and lots of puppies.

What is your dream occupation?

Retired owner of a small bar/surf shop on the coast while living off of my investments and raising an awesome family with tons of pets.

What is your most treasured possession?

My guitar.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

Targossas, to talk with friends.

When and where were you the happiest?

Laughing and sailing with friends.

What is your most marked characteristic?

I'm outspoken.

What is it that you most dislike?

Sadism.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

Dying a painless, meaningless death.

What is your greatest extravagance?

A plain black shirt.

Who do you most despise?

Nobody.

What is your greatest regret?

None.

Which talent would you most like to have?

The ability to love everyone and everything genuinely and express it in earnest and be the best fighter ever.

I wish I was more organized.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Chastity.

When the pros outweigh the cons.

No.

I would try and be more joyous and loving.

How would you like to die?

I want to give my life to save another.

Jeslyn

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 
I do, but I’d rather not say. He already knows who he is.
 
How do you generally treat others?
I generally try to make people feel valued and important, even if they are a stranger. Sometimes people give off “don’t talk to me” vibes, which I try to respect.  I say try because I’ve been known to not read the vibes and grace them with my presence anyways.
 
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Finding a partner that understands my virtues and not only accepts, but also embraces them for what they are.
 
What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Spending time with friends and not getting robbed while doing so.
 
What is your dream occupation?
It would be service to my city and if that does not work out… a zoo keeper. Animals don’t judge me.
 
What is your most treasured possession?
I have so many materialistic ones, but I’d like to say my amulet.
 
Where do you travel to most often, and why?
My most often would be Targossas. They have a lovely tavern there where I’ve met some of the most interesting people. I’d like to say I go for the temples...but that would not be honest.
 
When and where were you the happiest?
I am quite young, so I have not had many remarkable moments. However, the one that sticks in my mind would be in the chapel in Cyrene. While I usually go there for solitude, my partner confessed his intentions towards me there which I accepted.
 
What is your most marked characteristic?
My smile... even when people are pissing me off.
 
What is it that you most dislike?
I dislike chaos as I enjoy having harmony in my environment. I also hate being alone because it makes me feel like I won’t be able to control my thought processes.
 
What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?
My greatest fear would be letting a friend down. It stresses me out when someone is disappointed in me.
 
What is your greatest extravagance?
I spend quite a few coins on fashion… and drinks.
 
Who do you most despise?
I despise people who beat around the bush. Just tell me what you really think and no one will get hurt.
 
What is your greatest regret?
I luckily have none at this moment.
 
Which talent would you most like to have?
I’d like to say I want more talent in combat. I fail at it.
 
What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?
My selflessness has caused me more problems than benefits.
 
What is the trait you most deplore in others?
I hate arrogance in a person, but do not mistake that for me hating pride or confidence. Arrogance is selfishness that rears its ugly head and tries to diminish the skills and abilities of others.
 
What do you most value in your friends?
Genuineness. I don’t really care how weird they are as long as they don’t try to put on another mask.
 
What do you consider the most overrated virtue?
Peace.
 
On what occasions do you lie?
I would lie to protect a friend. I’ve done it before.
 
Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
Ahh... I see.
 
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
My sensitivity as I take too much to heart.
 
How would you like to die?
Who likes thinking about that?!
 
Describe a typical dream you might have.
My dreams take the form of different shades of color in my mind. I don’t really remember them.
 
Describe your worst nightmares.
Children.

Nim said:

[spoiler]

Do you, or did you, have any role models?

@Iocun.

How do you generally treat others?

I try to be benevolent, but I still don't understand what this means. Honestly, I treat most people coldly, ehe... it's no wonder I don't have many friends!

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Helping create Lifeless Sun. Someday, when I defeat Iocun, it'll become that instead.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Impossible to achieve, even by divine hands... though perhaps m'Lady comes closest.

What is your dream occupation?

Being m'Lady's blade.

What is your most treasured possession?

My own blade, Lifeless Sun.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

Centre Crossing, 'cause it has benches.

When and where were you the happiest?

In the heat of battle.

What is your most marked characteristic?

Apparently green hair is rare or something. Probably that.

What is it that you most dislike?

Adventurers. Most of them are mass murdering scum, and don't even recognize the fact.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

During the Bal'met war, I feared for m'Lady's life, but moreso, I was afraid of being unable to do anything about it... it turned out both fears were wrong in the end, as most are.

What is your greatest extravagance?

Ice cream... 'til Cyrene stopped selling it. Later, scarfs, though they don't sell many of those either.

Who do you most despise?

Didn't you ask this already?

What is your greatest regret?

It's not that I regret waiting so long to tell Iocun... I just regret standing near him so silently before doing so.

Which talent would you most like to have?

Being m'Lady's blade, versed in sharpness of all sorts - of wit, combat, tongue, and more.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

That I am weak.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

That they crush others to shed their own weakness.

What do you most value in your friends?

I don't care if they fight well, but I don't think I could become someone's friend without facing them in battle on a regular basis.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

A virtue that can be overrated is merely just a lie under another name.

On what occasions do you lie?

Never - especially not now.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

I used to have a nervous laugh that I did a lot. Does that count?

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

Only one thing? I would allow myself to change infinitely more thereafter, so that I can follow my heart's whim and m'Lady's word.

How would you like to die?

This is a silly question, and you're a silly person for asking it.

Describe a typical dream you might have / your worst nightmares.

I don't sleep.

[/spoiler]
I tried to word it how she would, but it's also been a few months since I've played her, so oh well!

All I can think of when reading this:

Kresslack

Because I have so much godsforsaken downtime at work recently, why not (of course answered from an IC perspective):

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

No. I believe inspiration is best found within, not without.

How do you generally treat others?

With token respect until they give me reason to treat them otherwise.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Being generally self-sufficient and a competent captain.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

On a secluded island or a ship with rum, cigars, and questionable women.

What is your dream occupation?

Sailing (more specifically exploring, trading, and diving).

What is your most treasured possession?

An engraved medallion that was given to me by an old friend a very long time ago.

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

Zanzibaar, for the rum, the cuisine, and the business opportunities.

When and where were you the happiest?

On a ship away from the hustle and bustle of mainland.

What is your most marked characteristic?

You'd have to ask someone else. Sense of humour? Smell? Being a lush?

What is it that you most dislike?

Complacency, in all aspects.

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

Growing bored or worn out with seafaring.

What is your greatest extravagance?

Item customisation(s).

Who do you most despise?

A sheep-mentality.

What is your greatest regret?

Class changing so often, though it has been an experience I wouldn't take back.

Which talent would you most like to have?

A better knack for hunting.

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

Impulsiveness.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Boastfulness.

What do you most value in your friends?

Loyalty.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Honour. (To clarify, I consider the general view people tend to have of honour as overrated. Honour isn't a catchall for value and morals. There's nothing wrong with theft, but there is something inherently wrong with stealing from friends, for instance, in that it betrays loyalty.)

On what occasions do you lie?

I try not to (easier than you think).

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

"Bloody hell" and "for fuck's sake"

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

Nothing comes to mind.

How would you like to die?

Going down with the ship.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I don't know. Cruising around on a Strider with a barrel of rum and twin Sirens?

Describe your worst nightmares.

Waking up and realizing the rum and Sirens was just a dream.

Sarapis

Do you, or did you, have any role models? 

No. I spent a really long time being the only thing in existence, so I learned to value Me for who I am. I won't let the haters harsh My vibe. I'm the God of Everything damn it!

How do you generally treat others?

Like marionettes. I also occasionally kick people out of the universe to start their own (see Varian).

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Reality.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?

Finally fixing this @#$^@ Fire Behind the Flame. It's really boring out here by Myself. 

What is your dream occupation?

I'm living it.

What is your most treasured possession?

It's a toss-up. I'm quite fond of the Black Boar, but I also love My grey robes. 

Where do you travel to most often, and why?

Before that asshole Bal'met tried to destroy My stuff, it was the Garden. These days, I don't travel anywhere. I hope to rectify that in the future. I could use a nice beach vacay that involves drinks with little umbrellas.

When and where were you the happiest?

Probably when I was Proteus, before the Chaos Wars. I was both omnipotent and not. Good times. So much mischief and shenanigans.

What is your most marked characteristic?

My grey robes, or possibly being the Creator of All. 

What is it that you most dislike?

Mushrooms. Why?

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

That I might actually be more awesome than I already am. *boom* Mind blown, right?

What is your greatest extravagance?

I got that second rock for my cave.

Who do you most despise?

@Lorielan. Or maybe @Sartan. Fuck that guy's abs. So jealous. 

What is your greatest regret?

Hmm. Choosing such a flamboyant colour for My robes. Or possibly allowing Phaestus to create dwarves. I'm not sure.

Which talent would you most like to have?

I already have all the talents, although I'll admit that my karaoke skills are a bit lacking. I wouldn't laugh if I were you though. I get a little zap-y. 

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

I really don't think such a stupid question deserves an answer.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Not trying. "Dreams of Divine Lands," people. Give it your all.

What do you most value in your friends?

Divinity.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Trying too hard. Come on, stop making the rest of us look bad.

On what occasions do you lie?

Being God, My words are both true, untrue, and kinda-sorta true all of the time, 60% of the time. 

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

"@Makarios, did you fall asleep at your keyboard AGAIN?"

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

Hahaha. Come on.

How would you like to die?

I can't die, but if I could, I suppose it'd be while sitting in my favorite cave, and staring at that spot on the wall I always liked. Simple pleasures.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I don't sleep. You do though, I bet, which is one reason you're not the Creator.

Describe your worst nightmares.

Ditto, but if you mean My worst fears, they typically involve walking in on some mortals having really unfortunate mudsex. Terrifying and disturbing.

My grey robes, or possibly being the Creator of All. 

What is it that you most dislike?

Mushrooms. Why?

What is your greatest fear (may be a little spoiler-y? You can omit, of course)?

That I might actually be more awesome than I already am. *boom* Mind blown, right?

What is your greatest extravagance?

I got that second rock for my cave.

Who do you most despise?

@Lorielan. Or maybe @Sartan. Fuck that guy's abs. So jealous. 

What is your greatest regret?

Hmm. Choosing such a flamboyant colour for My robes. Or possibly allowing Phaestus to create dwarves. I'm not sure.

Which talent would you most like to have?

I already have all the talents, although I'll admit that my karaoke skills are a bit lacking. I wouldn't laugh if I were you though. I get a little zap-y. 

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

I really don't think such a stupid question deserves an answer.

What is the trait you most deplore in others?

Not trying. "Dreams of Divine Lands," people. Give it your all.

What do you most value in your friends?

Divinity.

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?

Trying too hard. Come on, stop making the rest of us look bad.

On what occasions do you lie?

Being God, My words are both true, untrue, and kinda-sorta true all of the time, 60% of the time. 

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?

"@Makarios, did you fall asleep at your keyboard AGAIN?"

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

Hahaha. Come on.

How would you like to die?

I can't die, but if I could, I suppose it'd be while sitting in my favorite cave, and staring at that spot on the wall I always liked. Simple pleasures.

Describe a typical dream you might have.

I don't sleep. You do though, I bet, which is one reason you're not the Creator.

Describe your worst nightmares.

Ditto, but if you mean My worst fears, they typically involve walking in on some mortals having really unfortunate mudsex. Terrifying and disturbing.

This is the single greatest thing of all time. Of. All. Time!

So many comments I could make on @Lorielan's passive-aggressive dislike of My honest and forthcoming post. Soooo many.

Real Gods don't kiss and tell, even after They've drug all Their colleagues through a nasty and public breakup.
