1. What song do you feel summarizes yourself as a person?

Uh, hmm. Hell if I know. What I /want/ to be? Probably, "Not a Pretty Girl" by Ani Difranco. What I /am/? I don't know. I don't think any person can be summed up in a song, good and bad, I guess.

2. What's the truest, most relevant bit of advice you feel you've been given in life?

I am not alone. It's not really all that advice-y on the surface, I guess, but I've always found it surprisingly comforting and relevant to almost any situation. When it's darkest and everything is going wrong, and I'm so angry that I could cry, remembering that I'm not alone reminds me that I can deal with it, and move past it, and that I have people who /would/ help, even if I never ask them. When I have the urge to do something cruel or wrong, remembering that I'm not alone points out that other people can and will be hurt by my actions. I wish I could say that /always/ stops me from doing whatever it is.

3. You've provided your character sheet already -- if you had to include a 1-paragraph "roleplaying notes" entry for you (a how to play the character guide), what would you write in?

Assuming this is for the Dragonlance? Here you go:
Marian is, first and foremost, an honorable woman. She's idealistic and dedicated to her cause, and quick to cleave unto those who she considers fellow travellers. She tries to ape the manners of the highborn, and her (very whitewashed) picture of the knightly ideal, but she's not there, yet. She lacks tact, and the courtly graces, especially under pressure. She's fairly easily impressed by authority, and often manipulatable by those who prevail upon her sense of honor. She /is/ foolish enough to trust a Lord simply because he is a Lord until there's clear evidence otherwise, and she /is/ foolish enough to allow an enemy to retrieve their weapon to ensure a 'fair fight'.

4. What would YOU do for a Klondike Bar?

Pay a dollar and some change, or however much they cost these days. :)

5. What question have you hoped people would ask but haven't yet?

What is the meaning of life? Not because I have an answer, but just because it's a damn nifty question. :)

No, I meant in connection with Question #2, here.

Oh-ho, so that's what you meant. :) Hmm, well then:

Amber should be played as the 'ivory tower' sort of wizard, concentrating on theory to the detriment of practical experience. She's fairly easy going, as long as you don't butt up against her pet obssessions, but fond of arguing once her attention has been engaged. She should be portrayed as very resolute in her opinions, but soft-hearted enough that she often has trouble standing up to people until things have gone farther than she's truly comfortable with. She's an idealist, but a rather cynical one, and would often rather withdraw from the field than fight a losing battle.

You should ask me questions!
