[Malaclypse]

Has to be Karsa. He has strong opinions, a total lack of fear and common sense and knows how to have a good time whilst planning the destruction of all civilization

Also, this should be a poll

[Dancer+]

Good idea about the poll, oh great Malaclypse. You share my love of polls evidently

I think we should make the poll 'which (type of) character are you most akin to type poll' Most people seem to be answering this question as who would you rather be like rather than who you are like.

If anyone is intrigued, take this quiz (I made it a while back): http://quizfarm.com/...php?q_id=75778N

It's about which Malazan character you are most like, but there are obviously limitations on choice. Tell me what you think.

[Banana]

wow, that quiz is crazy long

[Dancer+]

You can't get accurate answers without in-depth questions, you only have to click 114 times to get the results

I'll post my results once a few people have done the quiz (if anyone does).

[The Tyrant Lizard]

I just done it.

I'm Brys Beddict - could have been worse all things considered, he's a good guy, after all. (must have taken you ages to do that quiz!)

[Skywalker]

I am deliriously happy...

I am an 81% match for Whiskeyjack and Cotillion, and a 78% match for Ganoes Paran and Tehol Beddict.

Very flattering.

Rep coming your way...

There's some pretty fucked-up questions in there...I take it you have a background in psychometrics? I detect some resonance with the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory ... Anyway, interesting quiz, thanks for making the effort

edit: reformat, it's not so simple as copy/paste

[Lancelot]

84% Kalam - That'll do for me.

[Vengeance]

I scored as follows....Nice:D

- I would take any of the top three...

[Malaclypse]

follow-up...is the Brys-thing becuase of my expressed willingness to die for a friend/principles etc.? Because he really wasn't a character I sympathized with a whole lot.

OTOH, while I wouldn't have picked Cotillion/Dancer on my own (read: I'm humble enough not to assert that my Malazan analogue is an established God ), I can definitely see how it's appropriate so kudos for that.

[Dancer+]

Brys is mainly a mixture of: Duty, talent and approachability - also caring and willing to sacrifice for friends/family.

I don't have a background in psychometrics, but I understand a small amount considering I've taken the odd test myself.

[Lister of Smeg]

I scored as 69% Fear Sengar. Not too bad - I quite like him - though it does mean that I'm already dead. Damn.

Right...well, it had the flavour of a real psychometric test, ie. questions intended to test one's honesty with regard to previous questions and suchlike so good job!

@Vengeance: How does it feel to be a watered-down version of me? (just joking )

[Cougar]

Brys Bedict for me, with Tehol a close second.

[ch'arlz]

Wow! I was sceptical at first, but the results are spot on!
You scored as a Whiskeyjack
You are whiskeyjack, the leader of the bridgeburners and ex-commander of the 2nd army. when you were in the perfect position to take power you turned it down showing your lack of lust for power. You find yourself gaining friendships and respect frequently, that perhaps you think you don't deserve. You will always defend the underdog and have a knack for leading!

It's spam but...I Rock...100% Cotillion, Be Afraid

[Mentalist]

You are Fear Sengar, the leader of the Edur armies. You originally bow to the Warlock King and then afterwards your youngest sibling. You have a talent for leading and had a relatively good childhood. You know when to accept authority and when someone else is superior. You have talent but you don't like your facade to be stripped away. You keep your fears and doubts bottled up and let others voice them for you.

heh... since i strongly dislike writing in extremes for any answer, and do so in only very few cases, that makes me harder to pinpoint...

I got Fear.. not bad, although it's only a 63% match...

Still Cult, that is an awesome quiz...

[Mezla PigDog]

100% Shadowthrone/Kellanved/Ammanas :angel:

[Shurque's biatch]

Kalem is a little weird as #1, but Kruppe is a close second. I guess I need to eat more... And Hairlock! Muhaahaa!
