Well I attempted my first play-test with [info]jkahane and Tammy. I now see that I should have run the outline by others, long before this point.

Besides converting Star Wars over to the Ubiquity System :) ... in order to fix it.

Your Score: The Phone Booth


42% Practicality, 28% Mutability, 0% NaziLoving Wuss, 11% Woowoo?




Your time machine is the Phone Booth.



For you, History is fixed and unchanging. But this is a actually very, very good thing. It means that you are free to mess around all you want without worrying about accidentally changing the wrong thing and permanently removing Oreo cookies from all existence. Sure, once in a while you'll be called upon to save the universe or defeat a villain or two, but there's nothing that says you can't do it in the silliest and most amusingly contrived manner you can think of.



If you liked this test, you might be interested in trying out The Martian Personality Test as well.

2008 is the Year of the Rat. Which animal year were you born in?


View other answers



I was born in the Year of the Monkey (February 5th, 1969).

The spunky Monkey is the original party animal! Charming and energetic, Monkeys crave fun, activity and stimulation. They truly know how to have a good time and can often be seen swinging from one group of friends to another, attracting a motley crew in the process. Always upbeat, they are considered minor celebrities in their circle thanks to their sparkling wit and that rapier-sharp mind. Perhaps surprisingly, Monkeys are also good listeners and tackle complicated situations with ease. This Sign's natural curiosity lends it the desire to become knowledgeable on a broad range of topics. Monkeys have a show-off side that loves nothing more than to dazzle their pals with all they know.

The Monkey tends to be rather accident-prone due to a certain lack of very high morals. This Sign's first interest is pursuing its own pleasure; this is not a malicious interest, it's just the way the Monkey is. However, this kind of carefree self-involvement can lead to all kinds of scrapes. In love, the Monkey makes a fun, exciting lover -- but one that may have the potential to stray romantically. The good news is, the Monkey’s glib manner and witty repartee can often get this Sign out of a scrape. Perhaps not everyone will be won over by the Monkey -- but do you think the Monkey really cares? The Monkey's world, full of devil-may-care energy and revelry, isn't for everyone. Remember, though, it's not that this Sign is mean; it might just be a bit too curious for its own good. Monkeys often feel the need to try everything at least once, which can make for a merry-go-round of relationships.

The Monkey's love of self-indulgence can also lead to other types of trouble. This Sign may have limited self-control concerning food, alcohol and other pleasurable activities. It's party time all the time for the Monkey, yet when it leads to a monster hangover or a shattered heart (generally someone else's, not theirs), this Sign might actually show a touch of remorse. They won't flat-out admit the error of their ways, but at least they'll pull back and try to tone things down -- for a while.

Monkeys must try to learn to think of others ahead of themselves, at least some of the time. This Sign's world will be more complete once it realizes the world doesn't revolve around it.


Damn, they seem to have my number, especially regarding food... ;)

I Am A: Neutral Good Human Druid/Sorcerer (2nd/2nd Level)


Ability Scores:

Strength-13

Dexterity-14

Constitution-13

Intelligence-13

Wisdom-15

Charisma-11


Alignment:
Neutral Good A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others. He works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment because because it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.


Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.


Primary Class:
Druids gain power not by ruling nature but by being at one with it. They hate the unnatural, including aberrations or undead, and destroy them where possible. Druids receive divine spells from nature, not the gods, and can gain an array of powers as they gain experience, including the ability to take the shapes of animals. The weapons and armor of a druid are restricted by their traditional oaths, not simply training. A druid's Wisdom score should be high, as this determines the maximum spell level that they can cast.


Secondary Class:
Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level they can cast.

Your Score: Cult Leader


You scored 52 Strength, 84 Guile, 47 Morality, and 83 Survival Rate!




You're a smart and moral person. If you're going to survive though you'll need some friends. Your best bet would be to make up a religion and gather a flock.

Band and Album Meme

This one comes courtesy of [info]jkahane.

Go to Wikipedia and hit random article, and that will give you the name of your band. Do it again, and that's the name of your album. Then do it fifteen more times, and those are the songs on the album. So let's see what I get...

Band Name: The Best of Britny Fox
Album Name: Matty Rich

Tracks:
1. Greek National Road 8A
2. Me'asha
3. Alfred Johnson Brooks
4. Kel Seliger
5. Sarzeau
6. Seminole Golf Railway
7. Shamshad TV
8. Airway Beacon
9. Conway Scenic Railroad
10. Camden County Animal Shelter, New Jersey
11. Finnish Labour Temple
12. Legatus
13. Cold Copper Tears
14. Arahad II
15. Miconia protuberans

The band's fifth album, written after their two year "musical sabbatical" to find themselves. Considered their best album to date, covers the whole gamut of musical styles, from the r&b sounds of "Seminole Golf Railway" to the heavy metal beats of "Legatus", the torch-like "Cold Copper Tears." The surprise guest appearance on the instrumental "Shamshad TV" is one of the true highlights. This album makes an excellent stocking stuffer, courtesy of Wikipedia music. ;)
