I know the custom on my friends list is to add my own comments, but, regardless, I find myself needing to present without comment...

( ...the knowledge meme )
A couple of things, and just one economic post! First, the content.
I'm not done with this yet, but I wanted to post it, because I think I've hit the point where I might not come back to it. Both the sheet and the special attunements (particularly the mechanics, eww, crunchy bits) need some fine tuning. I'm torn between cheesing her out - after all, she's got a dangerous, dangerous task in life - and trying to keep things balanced, and at the moment, I'm succeeding at neither. I think she'd get her ass kicked, AND she's all combat twinked. As far as the attunments go, I've thrown out three things, but I'm not sure I want to keep them all because they have slightly different focuses. But the background and the characterization is pretty much what I want save for organizational and stylistic changes. Comments are welcome, particularly on the crunchy bits, and I haven't come up with many rites yet. Therefore...
Edit: Belah has gained some nasty Artifacts.
( Belah, Angel of ...Hardcore? )
Ok, so that's content. Now I'm going to throw a meme at you. You all remember the question/interview/whatever meme?
( Cut for long groan of protest )

Humility doth not become me.
May. 16th, 2003 02:17 pmEmode.com had another IQ type test, a brain teaser thing. Did the whole thing without calculator, paper, or pencil, or any references whatsoever. ENTIRELY by brain power, in my head, doing the math bits in my head, the whole thing. I might have used my fingers for a number line on one question. (A happens before B, C before A type problem.)
Emode doesn't have neat little result blurbs for your journal, so take a look at this:

...Does this REALLY surprise anyone? I've never yet met a IQ test that could really put a limit on my intelligence. Be it >120, >150, or what, I'm always off the top of the scale. Humility hah!
I'll be humble about my looks. I'm ugly. I'll be humble about my knowledge - there's a whole lot I don't know. I'll be humble about my attitude - I'm not always a fun person to be around, I have bad manners, etc.
But I'm not going to be humble about pure brain power.
Here's their very stupid response email to my results:
Isn't it a little stupid to tell someone that got them all right they can 'improve' their score? I answered all the questions right, which 'type' are they going to tell me is my strongest skill? Bah.
Death to form letters.

Yippy skippy! I finally got a LJ code! Thene, you're my hero! Or something. #SA #SE
Umm. I will post quizes here, and not worry about annoying my friends and family, or shocking them, or offending them.
And sometimes I will rant and be angsty. Because I am human and humans do that sort of thing.
For now: BEHOLD MY BATTLE IMP!
