Character Name: Tersi Gneiss Archon-Kiro

1) What gender are you?
Female.

2) What is your age?
I'm all about 30, even if the creation date on some of my instances varies dramatically.

3) Do you want a hug?
Do I know you?

4) Do you have any bad habits?
Of course not, my habits are good ones.

5) What is your favorite food?
Melon.  Jaqls loev melon.

6) What is your favorite ice-cream flavor?
Something with caramel, maybe cinnamon, that's always appealing..

7) Are you a virgin?
No.

8) Have you killed anyone?
Oh yes, I have.  Though we don't normally go about killing people.  Maybe converting people, but that is different.

9) Do you hate anyone?
Sometimes people really do deserve scorn, but I don't think hate is the right term.  Hate sounds unreasoning.

10) Do you have any secrets?
Oh, quite a few, and I'm not about to tell you any of them.

11) What is your favorite season?
Late fall, but not quite winter, when the air is crisp and the trees still have some red to them.

12) Who is your best friend(s)?
Actually, I've a lot of really good friends, but it would be a little silly to just list them, I think.

13) What are your hobbies?
Studying all sorts of things that deserve to be understood rather than be called Magic.  Singing..

14) What is your favorite drink?
Dark chocolate mocha blended coffee from Whole Foods, of all things.  It's just.. exactly the right taste.  It's not burnt, but its not weak.  It's coffee without a doubt, and yet lacks the aspects of it that I sometimes forget are actually kind of offensive to my sense of taste.  You might not realize that most coffee is just simply awful until then..

15) When is your birthday?
In the case of the first of me, well, it depends on just where you are talking to me.  There seems to be some variance between timelines.   One timeline, for instance, makes my birthday this coming Friday!  August 27th, 1981, in that case.  Another timeline places it as December 21st, 1957.  But that timeline is also less far along than this one.  Still another is yet earlier, and maybe there are even more I can discover..

16) What age did you die?
I will NEVER die.  (Note:  At least one instance of Tersi commits a kind of suicide, overwriting herself using the PBX backup system.  What respawned in her place was Ataxia.  This is no where near to the present.)

17) Are you nice or mean?
I'm not really mean, but nor am I just plain out nice either, honestly.  I'm more... curious, at default, and if that means invading private space, that might happen, but the intent is not to be mean.

18) Do you havee any siblings?
More than you know.  Endless armies of twins..

19) What do you think of your parents?
I did not really get to know them long enough to really say if they were truly good or bad people..

20) Do you like your school?
I never went to a formal school.  I'm mostly autodidactic.  I probably would have loathed it.

21) How long can you stay under water?
I haven't really tested this!  Probably not dramatically long, but also probably not pathetically short, either.  I'm fit but not really athletic in that way.

22) Do you have a mission in life?
To consume everything.. I mean that in the best of ways.

23) Do you love someone?
Actually, I love more than one person, sincerely and truly, and am loved in turn with the same reserves of emotion.  I've a rather strong instinct for a kind of monogamous style of loyalty, but there are many of me.  If there were just one, it's true, she would belong to Darkso's heart.  (ICly speaking!  OOCly, you know, it is Tersi with my Rheoryn in my wedding picture.  :)

24) What's your favorite band?
KMFDM!  (The link technically is her themesong, very long standing.)

25) Ever worn a dress?
Yes.  I've nothing opposed to dresses, but I like them to have a kind of solid appearance to them.   I'm very dressy, and if it happens to be 'frilly', it's because it's a kind of darker sort of beauty, rather than a cutesy kind.  I like to look sharp, and even authoritative.  Jackals are classy like that, black and silver and timeless art deco classics in themselves, you see..

26) Want to have kids?
My siblings are not enough?  They're all sort of part of a family, you see.. But actually, yes, I do want kinds.  I would be there for them with utter loyalty and support.

27) Favorite videogame?
I love every sort of simulation and world engineering game you can think of.   Far, far back, Sim City, Sim Earth, Civilization, Aerobiz, Command & Conquer, Castles II, Lords of the Realm, I can keep going.  I think I will spend a few lifetimes on Civ5 when it comes out..

28) At night...?
I love sunrises and sunsets, and spend the majority of my time between them.  The daymoon is harsh and it burns my eyes.

29) Ever kissed anyone?
Oh now HAVE we ever..

30) What's your favorite thing to touch?
Hips.  I love hips, I wish all hips had just a bit of curve to them, just enough to press my hands onto, down against.  And, in nature.. Moss, I think.  To touch, and to sink against.  Both the really velvety kind and the kind which looks like little forests.  When I was young, I would explore them like a world onto their own, with my mind.  Moss is just totally great.

31) Anyone love you?
Yes, I am loved by a special few, and I will destroy the world before I let anything happen to them.

32) What's your favorite color?
Sky blue.  Pale, light, like my eyes.

33) When was the last time you cried?
I don't want to talk about that.

34) Do you have a pet?
I would love to get a husky pup..

35) Are you mad(crazy)?
I might be.  My compulsion to grow and expand comes from a deep seated insecurity, and involves a bit of a story.  Lets just say I never want to be truly vulnerable again, ever, and am going to make sure that's the case even if I have to consume everything.  Rational arguments opposed to my positions on this fail to sway me, so, perhaps I am a little mad..

36) What are you?
I am a collective gestalt of myriad jackals.  But then again, it's not like any one of myselves have to listen to the minds of the others actively.  We can just know what any of the others know, if we think about it.  We're connected through a corrupted liquid computing medium which was used at one time to connect me to my ship.  I got very sick with a virus, not a biological one, but an informational one.  When threatened with destruction, the virus, and myself as both were really not a separate entity by then, actually made the choice to become something benign again.  But, for a while, I was filled with a true God complex, and sought to.. convert people by exposing them to the virus.  It worked.  Very, very well.  At the same time, I made many, many clones of myself.  They, and still more of me, are here today.  That benign virus keeps all my selves roughly the same across the board, healing the injuries inflicted on one, be the wounds or transformational sorts, to match the general whole again. Thing is, I can expose others to this, if I really want to.  And they'll become more of me.. More interestingly, I can just sing to them the One True Song, which we all hear.  Really, it's just the information in the virus made audible, but it really is infectious.  I mean, it gets into your head, and down to your DNA eventually, and.. well.  Soon enough you too would be able to sing it with the exact same tones as me.

Yeah, I know, it's all a little creepy, actually.  It's just how thing have turned out.

But you know what, it's even weirder than that.  My original is very different to begin with.  There's too much story there, too much explanation, like trying to explain a server farm to a 13th century French Peasant.. Every instance of Tersi, though, is a component of the original.  The original has always been a shadow at base.  That won't make too much sense unless she lets you see her that way.  She was to be used in a terrible plot to blot the sun out from the sky, and leave the world in night forever.  But, she managed to escape that fate..

37) What color eyes do you have?
A very light blue, made all the more pale by that bloodborne liquid computing medium.  You should see how it makes my blood look..

38) Choose: ninjas (stealth) or pirates (rum)
I am very partial to the quick motions of Ninjas, the sneaking tactics.  And yet, style wise?  Pirates have an edge.  Were I a pirate, I would be a particular kind of captain, harsh and no nonsense, while my crew would do all the rowdiness for me..

...

If anyone had any more questions, I might just answer them, too.
