Which Sci-Fi Character Are You?
#21
Seems like everybody is showing up as starship captians or something. Or prancing little elves.

All noble and good.

**Sneers**

All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.

And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.

"Isn't this where...."

There's one Quidditch player as well.
Political Correctness is the idea that you can foster tolerance in a diverse world through the intolerance of anything that strays from a clinical standard.

As if that was worth mentioning :P

I would find it neat if anybody came up as Snape.

That's a very nice reply, and I dare say B5 is a good program; but if you continue to reply to obvious insults in such a constructive fashion, I'm afraid Gris will have to ban you.

I must say, however, that any SF personality quiz which only gives me matches from Babylon 5 is seriously lacking in any historical perspective. (I realize that this is an exception these days, but one does have to comment on it when it occurs.)

Why not include as possible outcomes, among many other examples, (ok -- I will admit a slight SF/Fantasy bias):

Gully Foyle (Tyger, Tyger, Alfred Bester)
Cugel the Clever (Cugel's Saga, Jack Vance)
Fafhrd (Swords and Deviltry, Fritz Leiber)
Tricia McMillan (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams}
Valentine (Lord Valentine's Castle, Robert Silverberg)
Hari Seldon (Foundation and Empire, Isaac Asimov)
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen (Dune, Frank Herbert))
Severian (Shadow of the Torturer, Gene Wolfe)
Number Ten Ox (Bridge of Birds, Barry Hugart)
Roy Complain (Non-Stop, Brian Aldiss)
Enoch Wallace (Way Station, Clifford Simak)
Elric of Melnibone (Michael Moorcock)
Hunter (Neverwhere, Neil Gaiman)
Jack (Jack of Shadows, Roger Zelazny)
Conan the Barbarian (The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian, Robert E. Howard)
...


It sort of beats:

Michael O'Hare .... Cmdr. Jeffrey Sinclair (1994)
Bruce Boxleitner .... Captain/President John J. Sheridan (1995-1998)
Claudia Christian .... Susan Ivanova (1994-1997, 1998)
Jerry Doyle .... Michael Garibaldi (1994-1998)
Tracy Scoggins .... Capt. Elizabeth Lochley (1998)
Mira Furlan .... Delenn (1994-1998)
Andreas Katsulas .... G'Kar (1994-1998)
Peter Jurasik .... Londo Mollari (1994-1998)
Richard Biggs .... Dr. Stephen Franklin (1994-1998)
Bill Mumy .... Lennier (1994-1998)
Stephen Furst .... Vir Cotto (1994-1998)
Andrea Thompson .... Commercial Telepath Talia Winters (1994-1995)
Patricia Tallman .... Commercial Telepath Lyta Alexander (1996-1998)
Jason Carter .... Ranger Marcus Cole (1995-1997)
Jeff Conaway .... Zack Allan (1995-1998)

and

William Shatner .... Captain James T. Kirk
Leonard Nimoy .... Lt. Cmdr./Commander Spock
DeForest Kelley .... Lt. Cmdr. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy, M.D.
Grace Lee Whitney .... Yeoman Janice Rand (1966-1967)
James Doohan .... Lt. Cmdr. Montgomery 'Scotty' Scott
George Takei .... Lt. Hikaru Sulu
Nichelle Nichols .... Lt. Uhura
Walter Koenig .... Ensign Pavel Chekov (1967-1969)
Majel Barrett .... Nurse Christine Chapel

But at least I've heard of the magnificent (if somewhat egotistical and self-righteous) Kirk; I, on the other hand, got a bunch of noble Babylon 5 characters whom I've never heard of. Better to be a William Shatner than a nonenitity, I would say. ;)

Hmm, I'm some Babylon 5 character, too. Too bad I never watched it. :(
Why can't we all just get along

Yup, well that's all the more reason to ban Ashock this instant.

I'm Elrond as well.

Got some bloke named Kosh from B5. Gah, Doc got the good results. Raistlin... mine... mine...

The party has gone into the cave of the dragon. Smoke and dragonfire light the cave walls. What is Caramon doing? Look raist! Bunnies!

Hail,

I'm G'Kar - which fits my personality rather well, I'm surprised to say.


Take care,

You're an ex-warrior/now-religious icon in self-proclaimed exile too?

You meet the most interesting people on the Internet... :ph34r:

Marcus Cole here, too.

I hate his stupid fake British accent, tho.

Changing one perticular answer (why yes, I'll take that bribe, since that's what I was going to say anyway) gives me Data. Hmmmm.

(Now I'm tempted to plug my own online personatity quiz thingy...).

No, Occhi. Keep it or pass it on to another space opera fan. :)

I got the good one because I am Neutral... Well, probably Chaotic Neutral.

And the rest of you goody two shoes Lawfully Awfully Good and Chaotic Good types make me sick.

This thread is overflowing with simple goodness, civility, and the small minded types that are to afraid to crush a few eggs to make an omlet. :P

I think they missed a word. As I recall the line, Aragorn's oath to Frodo was:
