Ah ok smile.gif I'll go into more detail in the story, but Ekali is in some ways the complete opposite to her mother. That's why I chose the name for her actually.

So the Black Horse Courier guy is a womanizer? ...

He has been sent to report on the Gweden Brothel (my mod changes the end of the Sirens Deception quest to keep Tsarrina alive, and re-open it, working for the Player). It was just a way to avoid the usual "story from the player's viewpoint" cliche, especially when I'm trying to showcase the NPC's I added.

I long for scenes where man hath never trod
A place where woman never smiled or wept
There to abide with my Creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”

Thought I'd give this a go. Didn't answer too many questions as I didn't want to spoil anything in my fanfic haha. I'll add more when I think of more questions haha

---------------------

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?

Eva-Bree Emerstone.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

Originally I was from Vault 101 in the Capitol Wasteland, but I'm now in the Mojave Wasteland. Talk about sweat stains. Blegh.

DO YOU HAVE ANY FAMILY?

My parents are dead; but I do have a twin brother.

My Mother, Catherine, died giving birth to me so i didn't get a chance to know her. My dad died in an attempt to save my life a few years back.

My brother, Freddie, is alive and well... I think. When he was born my Dad secretly gave him up to a group of scientists he worked on the Purity Project with; which Freddie ultimately worked on his whole life.

ARE YOU CURRENTLY IN A RELATIONSHIP?

PAHAAAHAAAHAHAHHAAAAHA.... haahaahaa.... ho... oh, wait, are you serious? Sorry. No. No I'm not.

WHAT WOULD YOU CONSIDER TO BE YOUR BEST FEATURE?

Many things. I like my hair; naturally red. I have a good figure, too. I'm not bad to look at either. And I'm modest.

DO YOU HAVE ANY SKILLS YOU USE TO SURVIVE THE WASTELAND?

Erm... I can get shot in the head and live to tell the tale? Apart from that I'm pretty deadly with a 9mm. I can also drink like nobodys business.

Bloody writer's block. Might as well have an interview in the meantime. tongue.gif Fortunately the choice of who to interview is rather easy. The other guy would refuse. Or kill me. kvright.gif


Alright, please introduce yourself.

I am the lady Orgnum Maorlatta, of the House Orgnum, princess and heir to the islands kingdom of Pyandonea. I am also the master of Yokuda-watch and its surrounding lands and people.


Heir? Does that mean you will be queen one day?

I hope not! By the time I'm first in line, there would be no one left to rule. Given an unlimited time for procreation, a lineage can grow rather large. I have so many cousins, uncles and aunts I can't remember even a third of them.


We haven't finished the introduction. What do you look like, what is your height, weight age etc?

Um, we're sitting in the same room. I don't think I need to describe myself to you. As for height, I am...let me do the math...around 170cm tall, asking a woman her weight is considered rude and as for age I am only a few years away from celebrating my first hundred!


What kind of person are you?

I aim to be a model representative of my House. This means I must be modest, well-mannered and respectful to those I meet and always willing to lend a helping hand.

Unfortunately some people insist on trying my patience and I regret to admit that I have slipped in the pursuit of the virtues.


Anything you want to tell us about you in the private sphere?

The private sphere is that, private. I would prefer not to elaborate too much on it though I suppose I could speak of my activities of interest. In private, I enjoy reading novels of adventure, going on swims with the water spirits, tending to my kelp farm and keeping up on my studies. The unfortunate fact is that as master of an estate, I am too busy speaking law, organizing projects and doing paperwork to have any time for private pursuits. Most days I eat, bathe and go right to sleep.


That is unfortunate.

Yes, it quite is. I'll be honest by saying that I looked forward to going to Tamriel. It felt like a vacation, an adventure of expanding one's horizones and leaving the drudgery behind. Up till I actually got there. Now I just wish I'd broken a leg and stayed home.


Can you tell us about your specialties? Every protagonist has a favoured weapon or spell. What is yours?

I don't have any. I heal people, I don't kill them and would be much pleased if I never saw a tool of murder again. Next question, please.


Where did you first meet your author?


Is it normal for you to talk in the third person? Ah, nevermind. It was at a party in, I don't even know where. It was a gathering of all your characters. Everyone kept changing their past. It was kind of unpleasant to be honest. Anyway, they held a lottery and I drew the lucky lot to meet the sponsor. And here we are now.


Ah, sorry. I'll try not to do that again. Did you ever expect you would be in a book?


Of course I did. There was never any doubt that my exploits would be chronicled in a collection of the House Orgnum, maybe an essay or two on Pyandonea-Tamriel relations. I didn't expect to be the sole subject however.


Trust me when I say you're not.

Really, who is the other one?

I don't think you want to know that.

Will I meet him?

No, he's on the other side of the province right now. And it's a big world, what are the odds? Anyway, let's talk about the story you're in. First off, can you give us a short description on what it is about?

Certainly. The story is about how I visit the land of Cyrodiil and retrieve a most valuable treasure the House Orgnum has given in loan to the House Septim of that land. That is all.


That's it? No difficulties?

Oh, there are difficulties of course, otherwise this wouldn't be a story. Far too many of them. As a writer, don't you hold the power to change that? You could have made things easier for me.


I do, but there are greater authorities than the writer. Their names are Plot and Tension.


Wonderful, just wonderful. So I was betrayed, and almost murdered, multiple times mind you, because it would make for a more interesting story?


Pretty much.

Mud-haired frogbrain. I hope you stub your toe on something.


That's kind of rude you know. Anyway, what kind of scenes have you been in?

Mostly dialogues, thank the Aedra. It has been a while since I was last in an action scene and I hope it stays that - What are you scribbling there?


Nothing, just some subluminal advice from Tension. Anyway, what kind of scenes do you want there to be more of?

Oh, so now I get a say in this? I want romance, a lot of romance. An adventure isn't complete without meeting a gorgeous princess or in my case, a sparkling prince. There hasn't been a single shred of heart-thumping swooning so far. Can you add some, please?




Romance, right. Ah, what is your type as they say?

Levvelyn of Glashorn. Handsome, smart, funny, kind, strong, loyal and honourable. I think it is obvious at this point that I am talking of a fictional person here. In the real world, I have to stay with my promised man. It is such a shame that Kelth lacks that talent to shred his shirt every scene. I still think I am lucky though.


I could write him in no problem. You may have your swooning yet.

Ah, he is in Pyandonea, I am in Cyrodiil. That is not exactly a distance you cross on an afternoon stroll. Look, just do whatever you like. Just keep me away from anything that might hurt me and keep the romance on a tight leash. Despite my daydreams of a novel hero, I intend to observe my duties and be loyal to my future husband.


You're in luck on that point. I recently gave you the aid of Baurus, remember?


Yes, I remember. But how exactly is that supposed to make me lucky? I barely know anything about him that isn't his name. And he isn't quite the type I'm attracted to.


Well, he made it to the Blades despite being far younger than the rest of them. The only reason he got in is because he's good, real good. I think it is safe to say that Penald Baurus is one of the most unstoppable badass killing machines this side of Jupiter. He can protect you from anything sharp and pointy.

Jupiter?


A planet, big one, kind of cloudy.

Okaay.




Moving on. If you could have superpowers, what would you choose?


World peace! No more murder!


That's beauty-pageant stuff. You can be a bit more selfish here.

No more murder. And some immortality. Mind you, I was planning on getting there myself. And I mean the good kind of immortality, no cheap knock-offs. So excluding immortality, I'd like to be the most talented woman at spellsong ever!




Let's close this interview. Do you have anything left to say?

Yes, I do. With all due respect, I beseech you and the deities Plot and Tension, to stop giving interviews and write faster. I want to go home.

From: The darkest pit of your soul. Hi there!



Character(s): Michael Anston and Brutus Caecilius Martius Corialanus
Genre/Setting: New Vegas, Fallout: New Vegas alternate storyline
Story: Once Upon a Time in New Vegas

PLEASE GIVE US A QUICK INTRODUCTION
Michael: Sure thing; Michael Anston, CEO of Anston and Co private military contractors, finest mercenary company in the Mojave Wasteland.
Brutus: I'm Brutus; I'm Michael's number two, and the company's muscle. Something needs to be broken, I break it.

WHEN DID YOU MEET YOUR AUTHOR?
Michael: October 2011, the guy saw Casino, a crime movie with Robert DeNiro and Joe Pesci. He'd been playing one hell of a lot of New Vegas at the time, and something about that movie and the idea of these two guys rising in power through the Las Vegas mob to run a city just clicked with him.
Brutus: Of course, he twigged that what he liked about it was that there was two of 'em, in the sort of classic 'big guy, small guy' duo, y'see. So he thought of this fast-talking guy who couldn't fight for crap but could talk his way out of any corner, and a big guy who wasn't quite as smart or charismatic as the other one but was able to swing a punch. That's how things started out.

SO WHO'S JOE PESCI AND WHO'S ROBERT DENIRO?
Michael: I'm Robert DeNiro, definitely.
Brutus: No you're not.
Michal: But I'm the smart one and you're the violent one! Hell, Joe Pesci murders a guy with a pen in that film! A frickin' pen! I've never hurt another person in my life.
Brutus: Yeah, but Joe Pesci's the hyperactive and dynamic one with the Italian-American accent, like you, while I'm the more quiet, considerate and introspective type like Robert DeNiro's character.
Michael: Y'know, for somebody who's main role is in my company is to break heads, you sure do think a lot.
Brutus: Eh, I can work with that just fine.

DID YOU EVER THINK YOUR LIFE WOULD END UP IN A BOOK?
Michael: Yeah, I reckoned I was an interesting enough guy for it to happen. Pity I got shafted on the royalties for this thing.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE SCENES IN YOUR BOOK: ACTION, DIALOGUE, ROMANCE?

Michael: Dialogue, definitely. I'm a people person, I love talking. Negotiating a deal and stuff like that, that's exciting, y'know. Just cause you ain't fighting with weapons it doesn't mean that you don't fight as hard or that the battle isn't as desperate or high-stakes.
Brutus: For me it's a good fight scene, something I can really sink my teeth into, so to speak. Michael's the type who'll just cower in cover-
Michael: Oh ha ha ha.
Brutus: But I'm the kind who likes to get stuck into things. That fight scene in the Thorn was a lot of fun.
Michael: Seriously? You found that fun? You crushed a guy's skull with that big robot claw of yours!
Brutus: Yeah, that's why it was fun. That was badass.
Michael: You scare me sometimes, pal.

DID YOU HAVE A HARD TIME CONVINCING YOUR AUTHOR TO WRITE ANY PARTICULAR SCENES FOR YOU?

Michael: Not that I can think of, really; guy has a rule he took from Chekhov; "Write without judgement." Whatever myself, Brutus or any other member of my company do is what we do. The guy just writes it down, that's all, doesn't judge, doesn't flinch.
Brutus: It's about truth for him, y'see. Even if it's nasty in the story, for him it's gotta be true. Making things nicer just because they're nicer, that idea don't sit right with the guy, not at all.

DO YOU INFILTRATE YOUR AUTHORS DREAMS?
Michael: Hell no. That's guy has some wierd stuff going on in that head of his, no way I'm getting involved in that.

ARE YOU CURRENTLY ENGAGED IN A RELATIONSHIP?

Michael: Been going about six months with Doris, my current girlfriend. Going pretty good, really; probably helps that she's one of the founding members of Anston and Co and pretty damn with repairs and demolitions.
Brutus: Not at the minute, no. I'm sure I'll find a nice guy to keep me warm at night soon enough, though; muscles like mine it's not exactly as if I don't stand a chance.

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE GENRE YOUR WRITER HAS PLACED YOU IN?

Michael: Yeah, I'd say I am; I probably wouldn't last five minutes out in the DC Wasteland, and anywhere in Tamriel? No thank you! Of course, I ended up on Earth, I reckon I could do pretty good in a bank or a stock market, maybe in organised crime too. Somewhere where there's a lot of money flowing and you need to be able think and talk quick, that's where I'd do best.
Brutus: Same with Michael, though if I was out in DC I'd probably do pretty well. I could probably fit into Tamriel pretty cosily seeing as they've got lots of Roman types out there already and I can swing a machete pretty good. If I was on Earth though, I reckon I'd either be in the army somewhere or doing a sport like heavyweight boxing or wrestling.

WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN A SEQUEL IF YOUR WRITER IS SO INCLINED?

Michael: A sequel means that I survive Once Upon a Time in New Vegas. I like that idea.
Brutus: Seconded. I've seen a glimpse of the guy's plans for the finale of that thing, though, so I'm not sure how he'd top it in a sequel.

IF YOU COULD GIVE YOURSELF A SUPERPOWER, WHAT WOULD YOU CHOOSE?

Michael: Uh, probably being bullet proof. When there's there's lead flying I generally just have to hunker down, wait for the noise to stop and hope I don't get hit in the meantime.
Brutus: Tricky, tricky. I'd say flying. Being able to fly always looks like fun.

BEFORE WE CLOSE THIS INTERVIEW, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO SAY?
Michael: Just one thing; if you ever find yourself in the Mojave area and you're in need of people hurt or things broken, just contact Anston and Co. Our Headquarters are on Freeside, right by the Strip gate; you can't miss us!

Come in, sit down. No, there is fine ok the floor will do, instead.
Could I, could I ask your name, first of all?

Niamh

Just Niamh?

Esher, Niamh Esher.

Thats an interesting name.

Is it?

Well, its a nice-sounding name.

Is it?

Umm. Ok, shall we start?


<shrug>

How old are you?


29

Thats very young for your kind.


My kind?

Sorry, elves 29 is very young.


Apparently. All elves are 29 at some time. This is my time.

Oookay
Um, where are you from?


Skyrim.

I mean, originally. Youre obviously not a Nord.


Oh what gave it away? Was it the ears? It was the ears wasnt it?

Well partly, Niamh. That and the fact that you clearly are not a Nord, in any sense.


I dont know.

What? Summerset Isle, valenwood?


I said I dont know, and no I dont know who my parents, my real parents, are.

How did you know I would ask you that?


<stare, rolls eyes>

Tell me, about what you do know.


No.

<silence>
<sigh>

I will tell you this.
My foster parents were good people, in their way, they did their best by me. But they were not my kind, and nor would they tell me of my kind, ever, though I asked. I dont know, perhaps they felt I was better off not knowing.

Do you believe that?


Not anymore.

Care to elaborate?


No.

<silence>

I was different, see? My accent was different, my ears were different, my body and my skin were different.
See?
All through my growing up I learnt to hide in the shadows. To show myself was to risk bad things.
So I learnt to fight back, from the dark petty things at first; a secret here and a secret there. A whispered word and casually dropped note. Discord sown. Something lifted and placed somewhere else, just little things at first.

Little revenges?


Yes. But it got serious when I was 18. There was a girl. By the time I was 18 I rarely stayed in my foster parents house and on this night she came for me, in the north storehouse.
She thought I would be asleep but I seldom slept, much less than now anyway.Besides I knew she was coming.
Id heard, see? She said she was going to fix me.
Wraith They called me, well

Well?


I left her behind the storehouse, afterwards. It had been quick. I returned to the Smiths house, and went to my room. But it was no good. People talk and they talked about me and even my foster-father could not protect me.
The girl, well she was prettier than I, more popular, her parents wealthier

What did you do?


I left.

<pensive silence>

Would you like to elaborate?


<averted gaze, for a moment, then direct stare>

Thats enough.

Can we speak again?


<pause>

Maybe. Ill seek you out.

Welcome! Please have a seat. Now-

Great. Another one of these interviews. Don't you people we enough if me in the Black Horse courier every [censored] day?!

I just wanted to kno-

To know what?! What happened in the Temple Of The One with Martin Septim? He turned into A fiery dragon and killed Mehrunes Dagon.

No! That's not what-

That's not what you wanted to know?! Then what do you want to know? I'm not teaching you how to fight of that's what your interested in. I doubt you could pick up a blade anyway.

There's no need to get snarky! I just wanted to know your name.

Oh, My name? Westley.

Do you have a last name?

Why don't ya just ask me what I ate this mornin'! What's with the personal questions?! My last name is Arctus.

Geez, who crapped in your cornflakes.

Now look who's getting snarky!

FINE! Let me just move on to the next question

Spit it out already, I don't have all day! There are people out there who need help.

-mutters an insult under breath- So, what do you look like.

Your looking at me right now, but I suppose I'll tell you. I have short black hair and blue eyes.

What about your weight, height, build?

Are you blind?! I'm 6"4 and I'm very muscular. I way about 235. Are ya happy now?! Please, hurry this interview up, I have places to be....

Not too many questions left! What race are you.

You really are blind. Wow. I'm an Imperial.

You're rude!

I'm not rude, I'm just in a hurry! I never agreed to this interview, I was dragged here against my will!

I'm sorry to hear that. So, what do you do for a living?

I'm the Champion of Cyrodiil, an adventurer, and I hunt.

-quickly scribbles down that info- Hmm...Interesting. So, Westley, please tell us a bit about yourself.

US?! -looks around the room frantically- WHO'S US?! Never mind that. I'll ignore that statement. What do you mean tell you about myself?! I just did! You asked for my height, weight, and race gods-damnit! What is this?! Are you trying to arrest me!

Just tell us a bit about yourself

You want to know a secret? I don't like you very much. Or your personal questions! But okay....I'll play along to your little game here, though I'm not sure why this is important to you.

I was born in the Imperial City. When I was a young boy, my father died and I ran away to Anvil and was taken in by the Fighter's Guild there. Anything else you want to know?

I'm sorry about your father.

Forget about that. It's the long past.

So....How did you meet your writer?

My what?! I'm nobody's plaything! What are you trying to ask me?

How did you meet the person who put you in your fanfic?

My what?! Are you trying to make a dirty joke? I don't like dirty jokes you [censored]! I've had enough of this.

Wait, no, come back!

-Westley slams door behind him-

Umm....we're having some technical issues :mellow:

Character: Vera Castius.
Genre/Setting: Cyrodiil, Skyrim, pre- Nerevarine and Oblivion Crisis.

PLEASE GIVE US A QUICK INTRODUCTION?
We have to start somewhere. My name is Vera Castius, raised in the Imperial Province of Cyrodiil, born in nobility and into a cursed bloodline of lycanthropes. I am a bounty hunter and mercenary by trade, a huntress by lifestyle. I was orphaned at seventeen, lost my entire family to tragedy. All at different times. I can't cook for [censored], I don't like kids much. They smell. I make lots of money because I'm damned good at what I do, and what I do isn't very nice.

YOU'RE A LYCANTHROPE?
You can say that. I'm a werewolf, to be specific. The last living member of my bloodline in Nirn. I never drank werewolf blood, never turned through an infection and never did any insane rituals. I just turned one night in my family's ancient crypt right after my old man just dropped the facts on my shoulder that I was a dormant werewolf after I started to think I was going insane. You know, I think I might be insane. Probably even more since I first changed. But the fact was only few members of my bloodline have the condition.

HOW DID THAT GO? YOUR FIRST TURN?
Hmm. Great. I spent the first few minutes having a heart-attack while my skin broke, my bones shifted within my body all the while I was turning into a giant, black lupine animal. That's before I lost all sense and killed my step-mother, her unborn child, and a few neighboring villagers before waking up naked inside of a log and taken away to the Imperial City Prison after being caught.

HOW DID YOU FIRST MEET YOUR WRITER?
Hmm, you know I think I met him in Bloodmoon. I was created with the intent of a vicious, insane and cynical lycanthropic warrior female, with a background based on Lawrence Talbot. I went through a few personality changes over the years; from a completely sarcastic loon to a moody woman to a loving sister to a sister-loving sarcastic moody loon. He won't admit it, but I think I am based on the girl he first ended up having a relationship with. At least my appearance.

DID YOU EVER THINK THAT YOUR LIFE WOULD END UP BEING IN A BOOK?
Sure did. I kick ass, how in Oblivion couldn't he put me in a book? Sure, warrior women who fight bare-handed, run naked and have that violent spirit in them are done to death. But I can do all these things because, well, I have the strength of three men, I have a complex personality, I'm not the most beautiful woman in Cyrodiil, I probably have more flaws than any other person. So, he can kiss my ass if he decides I'm too clich.

YOU ARE INSANE! YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL!

You think so? You should've seen me after my sister died. My teeth became black and yellow. I had bags under my eyes because of the lack of sleep. My nails grew long. I only bathed to wash the stench off. I didn't give a skeever's ass about my appearance. Half the time I was armored in my ebony gear from head to toe, and no one knew how I looked like. I guess I started to be a bit more self-conscious when I met a man I liked. What woman wouldn't be more attentive to her physical flaws?

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE SCENES IN YOUR BOOK: ACTION, DIALOGUE, ROMANCE?
Depends on the story. A mixture of action and dialogue is best for me. Since my house burned down and my family all died, I don't think I ever had the time to get involved in any romance. Duty comes first. Don't tell my grandfather, though. It would only piss him off since I'm the last member of the a family that's been blessed by Hircine for centuries. If I die, everything would be undone. I suppose romance is necessary if I want to mother a child that shares my blood, right? Did I mention I was seventeen when he shoved all that crap down my throat?

Action? I like it too much. I've never been one completely shy away from action. When I was a child my mother told me I had such a fire. I was always kicking cats, making bugs fight or throwing my sister's dolls off the balcony. Praxedes was the quiet one. She loved to read, sing songs and play by the garden. I grew up learning how to shoot a bow with my grandfather and learning some hand to hand combat while in the Fighter's Guild. You can say I'm going to die fighting. It's been me my whole life. But sometimes, we have to have a balance you know.

NOT MANY PEOPLE LIKE YOU FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD. WHAT MAKES YOU HATED AND LOVED
I don't have many friends. I always believed If I ever made friends, they would die or if they found out my secret, they would kill me or end up sending someone to do it. With my profession I couldn't afford to make friends. If its business, then sure, I'll make allies. I'll do the job if they pay me well. I keep it polite and professional. Now, if some random person tries to get information out of its "Good day, good bye and get lost."

People tend to think I'm rude and harsh. I think I am in many ways. But its either that or kill the people you get befriend. With my condition, no one is safe you know. I thought it is better to kill someone you don't know than someone who loves and likes you. Harsh, but its the truth. People hate me for my lack of remorse, my cold attitude and all that. My male counterpart is the same, but he's far more noble and likeable. He started off his life wanting to do as much good to his family as possible, and in the end after he's taken so many lives he sought to make up for it. As much as he claims he hates the world and all its hypocrisy of being good, he's probably done more good deeds than I have. In fact, many of his friends call him a hero. Yes, he has friends. I don't. But then ask him: How many of his friends are still alive? He's probably grateful his family didn't die like mine did. I admit I am a bit jealous. But I wouldn't be the woman I am now if it weren't for what happened.

Anyways, they want to hate a woman? They could hate on Raven Meridius. Her brother pays well, but that woman has four-centuries of innocent blood in her hands that was deliberate and for her notion of greater good. Yeah, you all remember that Akaviri invasion where the empire's legions all died in foreign lands? I wonder who inspired the emperor himself to go there with all those men and women to die. I also wonder who was given all the power of the throne after the emperor failed in his invasion. I'm Dibella compared to her.

DID YOU HAVE A HARD TIME CONVINCING YOUR AUTHOR TO WRITE ANY PARTICULAR SCENES FOR YOU?
Some scenes where I may be bit too harsh and some I may be a bit too nice. I once told him that I wouldn't do anything this horrible. I lived with people, I laugh, I cry. I'm not all doom and gloom. I risked my life to save a child from a werewolf(who I didn't know was my grandfather at the time). I told him that deep, down inside I have some qualities that are beneficial to those around me. And by beneficial I don't mean them being a pile of bloody bones in a forest ditch somewhere. There was one scene where I thing I ate my unborn step-sibling but I told him this wouldn't go down so nicely in paper or online. You know, because many people have qualms about such things. While he has absolutely no issues whatsoever with writing it, he knows many people do. So he respects that.

I live in a world full of necromancers, wars, daedric creatures, witches and wizards and rituals and swords and betrayal and chaos. Even farmers who try to hide away from the world somehow has problems knocking on their door. There were many things I didn't want him writing for me, but he doesn't glamorize or sugar-coats the truth about Tamriel. It isn't called The Arena for nothing.

DO YOU INFILTRATE YOUR AUTHORS DREAMS?
I don't think I ever did. I hope to one day.

ARE YOU CURRENTLY ENGAGED IN A RELATIONSHIP?
Hmmm. With my grandfather telling me to have sex and further the bloodline(he's dead, mind you), do you think I could go long being a virgin forever without love? Even people like me need to settle down one day, and retire. Most I've ever remember doing was kissing a man, and a woman when I was in the Fighter's Guild. I was young, curious and stupid. Didn't know what love was until it smacked me.

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE GENRE YOUR WRITER HAS PLACED YOU IN?
Hell yeah. Why wouldn't I be? I like swords, I like my bows and crossbows and knives. I absolutely adore my lycanthropy. I'd be dead without it.

WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN A SEQUEL IF YOUR WRITER IS SO INCLINED?
My story isn't done yet. There are three more chapters left for it to be finished. I will be in a sequel, though not in my story. I will share a story with another character named Lycus. You may know him as Kraven(gods, what a terrible name. His father was a jerk). I believe I will face new challenges and trials, and be a bit more open about my personality. He doesn't tell me, but I think he wants me to fall in love or something.

And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed.
I long for scenes where man hath never trod
A place where woman never smiled or wept
There to abide with my Creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”

I forgot that I did this before.

Character: Tara Karminova and Kalila Blackstone

Genre/Setting:
Horror-ish/Cyrodiil, a few years before the Oblivion Crisis

PLEASE GIVE US A QUICK INTRODUCTION?
Tara: My name is Tara Karminova, Mages Guild Wizard

Kalila: I'm Kalila Blackstone. I'm a future battlemage.

HOW DID YOU FIRST MEET YOUR WRITER?
Kalila: I met her first. We go way back actually. Good heavens, almost a decade back! I was always a battlemage, though. Always.

Tara: We met a few years after Kalila. I was dead and brought back so many times. -laughs- And the name changes and even my relationship to Kalila. Of course, I'm happy with the way things are now.

DID YOU EVER THINK THAT YOUR LIFE WOULD END UP BEING IN A BOOK?
Tara: Oh, of course. I figured one day I would be written about! I just thought it would be more for my studies and discoveries, not... well, you know.

Kalila: Not really.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE SCENES IN YOUR BOOK: ACTION, DIALOGUE, ROMANCE?
Tara: I think for me, it would be the uses of magic. She's got her own sort of history with magick, so seeing it combined with my skill, it's very interesting...

Kalila: Action scenes. I like doing stuff. I enjoy getting out there, heart pumping, actually doing things besides loafing.

DID YOU HAVE A HARD TIME CONVINCING YOUR AUTHOR TO WRITE ANY PARTICULAR SCENES FOR YOU?
Tara: I think she struggles a little with the fighting. Using magic seems to be easier, but the physical fights are still a little hard to get done.

Kalila: Same. Fight scenes. It's like pulling teeth to get one done.

DO YOU INFILTRATE YOUR AUTHORS DREAMS?
Tara: I don't believe I have...

Kalila: All the time. It was how she knew about Kestrella. -whispers- Do NOT tell Tara about this!

ARE YOU CURRENTLY ENGAGED IN A RELATIONSHIP?
Tara: -laughs- Oh, no. Not yet.. Maybe one day, but I just don't have time to balance everything I'm working on, plus a relationship! Perhaps after this... um... specific project, maybe then I'll consider looking for someone. But until then, I'm afraid romance is a distraction that I just can't afford.

Kalila: -turns bright red and fidgets- No! Of course not! What Tara said! I don't have time! And she's-- I mean, whoever it would be is a distraction!

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE GENRE YOUR WRITER HAS PLACED YOU IN?
Tara: You mean horror? Not entirely...

Kalila: Is this a horror? Feels more like action-oriented to me. I like it.

WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN A SEQUEL IF YOUR WRITER IS SO INCLINED?
Tara: Ah yes, something for after our Happily Ever After.

Kalila: Doing what? I mean, if it's workable, I guess.

IF YOU COULD GIVE YOURSELF A SUPERPOWER, WHAT WOULD YOU CHOOSE?
Tara: Mind reading.

Kalila: Time travel.

Madness Helps Me Save Myself

Standing on the cliffs that kiss burning winds
We are rising together
Brazen, exalting, a hiss of triumph rings
I am yours
...Yours immortally
