Interesting that I have more LARP characters than tabletop..
1) Who would make a better college professor: 6, or 11?
6 almost had a PHD before being embraced. 11 was completely mad and lived in the past. It's a toss up.
2) Do you think 2 is hot? How hot?
As the undead he was cold. Very cold.
3) 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Investigate the non-human nature of so many of 8's faction mates. 8 will point out that 12 is just being clueless and to stop asking stupid questions.
4) What is, or would be, 9's favourite book?
'Shooting poor people for fun and profit.'
5) Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
A Tremere Regent and a Dewin Magus? Depends who could finish casting fastest...
6) For some reason, 5 is looking for a room-mate. Should they share a studio apartment with 9, or 10?
Lilith would never live in a forest. Jay probably would live with a giant robot without thinking it was even slighly weird. Especially if he could add some foliage to help him blend in.
7) 2, 7, and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Charles and "Nikolas" kill clueless mage for asking too many silly questions. Charles tries to eat his soul and become an undead true mage. No witnesses remember seeing anyone resembling "Nikolas" anywhere in the vicinity.
8) 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Myles casts Machine Blitz and Darkwave stops working.
9) If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would they get it back?
Through prayer to the ancestors.
10) Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
'A Little Knowledge is a Dangerous Thing'
11) What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
An evil cult of gorgeous women seek to sell their souls to rebuild Carthage.
12) If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
I wouldn't recognise him.
13) If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
Errr... teach me Thaumaturgy?
14) Does anyone on your friends list resemble 11 (either in appearance or personality)?
Anyone who resembled Edward wouldn't believe in technology enough to be able to be on my list...
15) If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
He'd stay right out of it. He's wise enough not to oppose a Brujah elder and Randy would be likely to turn on him if he thought he was playing 'pick on the mortal'.
16) What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
Another battle? How depressing.
17) If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
Dark Angel - VNV Nation
18) 1, 6, and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
Hmmm. Vincent has Dominate but Ian has Mind Control and immunity to mental effects. However Vincent also knows the Dark Thaumaturgy: path of torture. It could get very messy and the pancake lost under the table in the scrap. Neither has the ability to eat solid food anyway.
19) What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
This is an amazing pick-up line *dominate*
20) What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
Inappropriate liasons with trees.
21) What is 6's secret?
He plots to be Prince and has already subverted some of the ghoul militia to serve him alone.
22) If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Definately Lilith. She can fly futuristic craft where Edward walks everywhere. Now if he ever mastered Correspondance of course...
23) If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
Debatable. At least if you were with "Nikolas" you could be reasonably sure you couldn't meet anyone who was any worse..
24) 1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4's sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that he/she is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3, who gives them what they need to complete their quest. What title would you give this fic?
Two Against an Army.
