A 'what if...' fictional character quiz under the cut. Snatched from
starrahamuchan profile.
First, select your ten fictional characters (from any medium) by whichever method you like best. Then answer the questions below.
1. Neville Longbottom (HP)
2. Jake Black (Twlight)
3. Space Adventurer Cobra (Cobra [anime])
4. Roy Mustang (FMA [anime])
5. Eiri Yuki (Gravitation [anime])
6. Zero (Vampire Knight [anime])
7. Light Yagami (Death Note [anime])
8. Gandalf (LotR)
9. Spock (Star Trek)
10. Captain Planet
1. Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would make a better Five Man Band (like a Power Rangers team)? Who would you slot in each position: Leader, Lancer (second-in-command), Big Guy, Smart Guy, The Chick? If you think the team would be improved by swapping one character between the even and odd groups, which ones would you switch?
Group A:
Leader: Cobra (with his magic gun!)
Lancer: Eiri Yuki
Big Guy: Neville (hello!!! He has the sword of Gryffindor)
Smart Guy: Spock (duh)
Chick: Light (only because I hate his whininess)
Group B:
Leader: Gandalf
Lancer: Jake Black
Big Guy: Zero (enh...not sure how I feel about this)
Smart Guy: Captain Planet
Chick: Roy Mustang (only b/c he would look sexy in a miniskirt)
Group A is the shit! Although..B does have Gandalf...but then again, Light could use the Death Note to kill them all...so yea, A.
2. Gender-swap 2, 8 & 10. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?
LOL! Jake's story would completely change. He would never become obsessed with Bella, and we might never have had the angstiness of the 2nd and 3rd Twilight books.
I can not imagine Gandalf as a woman. He might not be as able to get people to follow him.
and Planet...just no.
3. Compare the matchups of 1 & 8 and 5 & 9. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?
Neville/Gandalf and Yuki/Spock?!?!?!
Compatible - Neville/Gandalf (Both wizards)
Plausible - again, Neville/Gandalf, for the same reasons mentioned above
4. Your team is 3, 4 & 9. The mission consists of a social challenge, a mental challenge and a physical challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?
Social - Mustang (if women are involved, Mustang = instant win!)
Mental - Spock
Physical - Cobra (blasts everything with his magic gun!!)
5. 7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?
Light as Neville's boss....I can imagine it. Neville would have to be careful not to piss off Light, or he might get killed with the Death Note. On the other hand, Neville could always Accio the Death Note and then kill Light with the Sword of Gryffindor. Either way...it would be a CAREFUL working relationship.
6. 2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 6's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 6 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 6's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?
Jake would be going around killing all the members of the night class, so they wouldn't bite anyone.
7. 3 and 5 get three wishes. The catch is that they have to agree on all three wishes before they get the benefits of any of them. What three wishes would they make?
Yuki and Cobra?...
-seXx, possibly
-an endless supply of cigarettes
-a fast ride??
8. 1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to attack and kill 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any Code vs. Killing has been turned off. Can 4 survive? How?
Neville has a wand and the sword of Gryffindor. He can use a spell to disable Mustang's snappy firepower, and then use the sword to kill Mustang. Or Jake could tear him to shreds...that works too
9. 6, 7, 9 & 10 must help an orphanage full of small and depressed children have a merry Christmas. Who does what, knowing that at the very least the kids will be expecting a visit from Santa?
- Captain Planet summons snow
- Light kills a millionaire with the Death Note, after having him doante all his money to the orphanage
- Spock will sing the Hobbit song =-P (check it out on YouTube!!)
- Zero might dress up as Santa...you never know
10. 3 and 8 are challenged to circumnavigate the Earth in eighty days or less, using only forms of transportation invented before 1900. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
Cobra might get distracted, but Gandalf would get them back on track =-P (He is the awesome that way). Can Gandalf teleport?? IF so, that is what will happen. If not, they will have to take trains, use a hot-air balloon, and ride horses
