Character AMAs; Time for Round Two
Topic Started: 1st February 2015 - 07:48 PM (3,651 Views)

Hello Orderlings,

It seems a good time has passed since our last Character AMA topic was posted in...so I guess it's time we relaunched this little project.

So, an AMA is where you can ask a person any question you like...they don't have to give an answer you like but they do have to give you one. In this instance, we put up our characters for scrutiny by other members of this site. These AMAs can feature as many of your characters as you would like, and will last for around 48 hours...ish.

If you want your characters to do an AMA, then just post in this topic (preferably when asking other characters). I'll see how well this topic goes and if enough are interested I'll kick it off :)

Rules
1) You can ask about anything regarding IC role-play, don't expect characters to know about Tytor's secret love of High School Musical pizza toppings
2) You should be respectful when asking questions – being offensive in an AMA is not cool
3) You can ask a question posing as yourself, or as one of your characters - just don't go overboard
4) This is not the same as the Press Office. Answers posted here cannot be considered canon.

To all:

"You get to ask a genie one question. It doesn't matter what you ask, but you will get a 100% honest and truthful answer – what would you ask?"
"Snog, marry avoid: Stalin, Zach Jong-Un and Serenity Azurewind?"

Willa Sunbrek and Krista Rosendahl:

"Your relationship sparked much controversy, and most notably drew criticisms from the Imperial Couple of Rokkenjima. Considering that they have now back down from their positions and privately apologised[1], how do you both personally view the intentions of the Imperial Couple, and also of the Imperial Couple themselves?

Also to Willa:

"Pride was awesome, and it seemed many people enjoyed the 'LGB Leaders' performance. Would you be willing to join in?"

To Ragnar Odinsson:

"Why does the Gungnir have to choose such an awesome name for your 'country'?"
[1] Assuming this will be the course of action that Beatrice takes when she eventually replies :P

Favourite Pizza

Willa and Krista - Ham and Sweetcorn and Pepperoni half and half.

Birgit - Four Seasons

Kjetel Gunnarsson - Meat Feast

Ragnar Odinsson - Seafood Special




Genie question

Willa - "When are the press going to get back to looking at my politics"

Birgit - "Which crisis we going to try and sort out next"

Martja Ottosen - "What's the point of a neutral country having us around?"




"Your relationship sparked much controversy, and most notably drew criticisms from the Imperial Couple of Rokkenjima. Considering that they have now back down from their positions and privately apologised[1], how do you both personally view the intentions of the Imperial Couple, and also of the Imperial Couple themselves?"

Willa - "The Imperial Couple are two people I respect, as for the view on their intentions I get what they thought they were doing, I guess we all learn every story has more than the surface."

Krista - "I don't know them, I've never meet them and I can't imagine I really will. I'm used to the media gossiping about me and like Willa I get the message they thought they were portraying, but frankly running to the press isn't how I think they should have done it considering Willa's position and the timing."





"Pride was awesome, and it seemed many people enjoyed the 'LGB Leaders' performance. Would you be willing to join in?"

Willa- "I save my singing for the shower, and even then with the window shut, I'm not musical at all and Im pretty tone deaf, I think I'd rather spare the world from that. As now the official "Hostess of the Union" you might get Krista involved, she's got a good singing voice."




"Why does the Gungnir have to choose such an awesome name for your 'country'?"

Ragnar Odinsson "Because we're followers of Odin, we don't do anything that isn't awesome. I mean a God that gets rid of ice giants you can't get more amazing, I mean when was the last time you saw an ice giant. I rest my case."

"The Gungnir are currently attempting to arm ourselves, while the flying longboats are some way off we hope to field a decent armed militia in the near future, these forces will be used to defend Odinism wherever it is marginalised."

Wat up, dawg. Respect to mah homies :P

Ronan Vallerius - Prime Minister and head of government since 2011, and leader of the Liberal Alliance political party. In the absence of a hereditary head of state, the most powerful person in the country.

Quanii Laat - Dijeli foreign minister and most visable woman in the Dijeli government. Responsible for, unsurprisingly, foreign policy, including CIS affairs.

Sir Steven Dabu - Defence Minister and former Brigadier in the FDDF, having retired from the armed forces after the First Safraen Crisis. Has been the chief driver of recent investment in the Dijeli armed forces.

Sir Roland Sto Heilat - Ambassidor to the CIS, currently based in the city of Leonaise, Achkaerin. From an aristocratic background, considers himself an old hand by now.

Captain Keith Saunders - OC of the Dijeli Marine Pathfinders, and a veteran of the First Safraen conflict. From a working-class area of the port city of Compangh, the pathfinder companies are his brainchild, and he sees them as a rival to East Moreland's Red Legion.

Dr Keyleigh Haltzinger - Trauma doctor of Safraenese origin, became involved in the First Safraen Crisis, later came to the Dijel as a refugee. Reported to be close to Captain Saunders.

King Teppicamamanon IX - Titular monarch of Klatch and Dijelibeybi, and longtime excile, duties are now fully ceremonial.

Ihmran Ibn Nassir - Leader of the right-wing Guiding Light party.

Katerina Dubrovnic - Leader of the left-wing Reformed Peoples' Party.

Quanii Laat:

"I think there may have been a little bit of a misunderstanding here; we never have, and I hope never will, introduce public decency laws in the Federation. As far as I know, only one political party, if you can call it that, has expressed any interest in this scheme (see article), and the government certainly is not interested, and that is speaking as a cabinet member. I can only apologise for any confusion caused - this is not a path my country will be going down. Period"

Ihmran Ibn Nassir, Farha al'din from the Daily Emirate:

1.) "Your party is often referred to as 'extremists' and 'fanatics' but actually your policies and views are quite similar to those held in Amcin lands. Do you think that it puts both the Emirates and your ideal Dijel at odds with the rest of the world and left disadvantaged?"

2.) "Traditional dress is one of our most prominent features with politicians and diplomats always wearing their robes and ghutras. Where do you stand on this topic?"

Captain Keith Saunders:

"Almost as easy as blazing a path across your try line" B-)




Ronan: "Something spicy, maybe with chili peppers and Cajun chicken"

Quanii: "Anchovies, no competition"

Sir Steven: "Meat feast, hands down"

Sir Roland: "Honestly, I like to try new things, so it depends where I am"

Keith: "Meat and olives, with a little bit of feta cheese. Classy"




Ihmran:

"At odds is how it feels sometimes, especially with the Rokkos and Dartys harping on about that 'equality' squit - if god had wanted us to be equal, he would've made us that way. But disadvantaged? Hah. When we get to paradise, then we'll see who's disadvantaged. And traditional dress is one of the few areas in which I actually find myself in agreement with these 'liberal' types. I'd like to see more people wearing it, to be honest - we are proud of our traditions, and with good reason"

Genie Question:

Ronan: "Am I doing this right?"

Quanii: "Do the Amcin secretly have it in for me?"

Sir Steven: "Will the Zachacevania thing spill over into Ndambia?"

Sir Roland: "What does the future hold for the CIS?"

Keith: "How much wood should a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck should indeed chuck wood?"




Snog-Marry-Avoid Question:

Ronan: "Snog: Zach, Avoid: Serenity, Marry: sorry, too late"

Quanii: "What are you, a tiny child?"

Sir Steven: Snog Zach, Marry Stalin, Avoid Serenity"

Sir Roland: "Haha, maybe not"

Keith: "Snog: Serenity, Marry Zach, Avoid Stalin"




On Darti-Dijeli Relations:

Quanii: "Well, I can see things going one of two ways from here. Either: we'll get over our differences, and possibly become a little closer through organisations such as the CTO and Pan-Albion Congress, especially if the CIS and CSTO move closer together, though I cannot see us becoming massively close in the short term; alternatively, things could get worse, one immature and insensitive joke too many and we've potentially got, if not quite a cold war, then certainly the cold shoulder. Obviously, we hope for the former, but are prepared for the latter"

Okay guys so here we are:

Jeziel Karsim - Emir and sole ruler of the UAE. A child of the under-classes, he has climbed the ladder of Amcin society to become the first Emir in over two hundred years. He was responsible for abolishing the democratic, albeit corporatist, form of government and converted the CAS into the UAE to build a stronger cultural society. He rather enjoys a drink or ten.
Posted Image

Leott Tarkkin - Royal Vizier and personal aide to the Emir he, like Karsim, was a lawyer and deals with all of the paperwork and tedious admin which the Sharifs don't want to do. He is generally a more liberally-minded member of the upper caste and is very keen on the UAE branching out internationally.
Posted Image

Alen Mulimaahs - Sharif of Blymidis and the Sayyid, he is the appointed religious figurehead who directs and controls the worship of the Prophet Amzaar. Naturally more conservative, he played a big part in introducing religion into government.
Posted Image

Maramya al'Waaz - The first ever female official, she is the Sharifa of Gille and was responsible for one of the biggest police operations in Amcin history to reduce gang warfare. She is a champion for women's' rights and is adamant that women are not abused in the Emirates.
Posted Image

(For fun) Commander Al-Taiir - the commanding officer of the sinister and covert Kaamin Extermination Division, Ruushid Al-Taiir is a ruthless and merciless man hell bent on wiping out the Kaamin people from Amcin soil. He is spearheading the 'Amcin Apartheid' (which I will eventually pan out). He features only in my 'Kaayla' vignettes.
