Forum game: Ask the character!

The hero of course!
And I’m rather fond of snufflers.
The real question if someone were to write a story about you, what genre would it be?

As cathyr19355: Tragedy. I have killed so many people in Fallen London for both fun and profit, but the one person whose loss brought me here is dead beyond hope of resurrection.

As Catherine Raymond: Comedy. Or perhaps farce. I came to Fallen London for fame and fortune, so what do I end up doing? Running a damned Orphanage!

My question: What gift would you most like to pull from Mr. Sacks’s sack?

Someone else’s aunt.

If you are given an opportunity to change your name, what would it be?

(Cortez the Killer): Becoming Jack-of-Smiles!

Which of these nice places do you enjoy most: the Iron Republic, the Chelonate or Kingeater’s Castle?
edited by Rupho Schartenhauer on 1/19/2016

Kingeater’s has helped me with terror-reduction in what would otherwise have been desperate circumstances quite a few times. And of course, a certain engine can be constructed there, so it’s definitely the most useful of these places - I wouldn’t go so far as to call any of them nice.

What will you wear to the Duchess’ Banquet this Feast of the Rose?

Flesh-Stick: NOTHING

WHAT WAS THE ONE THING YOU WISHED YOU COULD HAVE GOTTEN THIS CHRISTMAS THAT YOU MISSED OUT ON? (I DUNNO IF I CAN MAKE IT ANOTHER YEAR WITHOUT A WALL SHARK…SNIFFLE )

Pyro: &quotAh, I wish to have one of those mysterious coffins. But alas, I have promised a certain lady and I have to keep my word so I didn’t have enough Lacre to get one.&quot

Rudolph: Pretty Houses. Looks longingly at the Spires of the Bazaar But I have new snail home. Snail home is nice. No fleas too!

You wake up one day with a Master snoring besides you. Who is that Master and what were you doing the night before?

Mr. Cups and he was failing to die!
Or Mr. Veils was partying a bit too much at the carnival and crashed in my pad.
Continuing the same vein
What would be the worst person to wake up next to?

Pyro: Mr. Pages! I can’t imagine how I can deal with them in person much less in my bedroom. Whenever I get a stack of a certain type of literature, I get the following opportunistic postcards from them:

  1. &quotCan we read Fifty Shades of Gant together?&quot <this made me cry irrigo tears>

  2. Can I borrow your Devilbone die? I need them for a Oubliettes and Ouroboroses. <last time they were returned to me, they smelled of bat dung>

  3. Pyro-kun, you’re so sugoi! Can I be your waifu? <I still have no idea what kind of Correspondence sigils lurk behind this text but they did make my ears bleed>

Rudolph: Angry Shiny Men (Special Constables)! They have squinty look even if they are friends. I’m friends with Shiny Men (Constables) and Dirty Men (Criminals). Why are they angry?

Question: If you can make something else out of the Lacre aside from the Noman. What would that be and what will you do with it?

Dying.

Which FL or SS character would you like to challenge to a K&C duel?

Eli Lowe: You’re asking me who I want to run up and stab? How unbelievably convenient, I have a list right here! Wait, challenge? Oh, maybe not then.

Do you have any fond memories of life on the surface, before you came to The Neath?

I have plenty of fond recollections of life on the Surface. Trouble is, I can no longer tell which of them are truly mine. The combination of irrigo exposure and indulgence in the Taste can do all sorts of funny things to one’s memory.

Speaking of which, what’s your opinion on Dr. Schlomo and his theories?

That man has a serious case of serpent envy…

What’s your favourite colour of the Neath-bow?

Flesh-Stick: WOAH, THAT’S A FULL NEATHBOW, ALL THE WAY! DOUBLE NEATHBOW OH MY GOD! WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? IT’S SO INTENSE AND IT’S STARTING TO LOOK LIKE A TRIPLE NEATHBOW! OH MY GOD IT’S FULL-ON! DOUBLE NEATHBOW ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE…UH…CAVERN ROOF! WHAT DOES IT MEAN???

BREAKS DOWN SOBBING

ALSO, DOES INVISIBLE COUNT AS A COLOR?

NO THAT’S NOT MY QUESTION. MY QUESTION IS…WOULD ANYONE BE WILLING TO BRING ME SOME NEW PANTS? I CAN’T HANDLE THESE INTENSE NEATHBOWS LIKE I USED TO…

Uhh, yes good sir I suppose I could. Starts looking for some pants in her wardrobe Uhh, here hands him a skirt with a pair of scarlet stockings I’m afraid thats all I have. On the bright side they do look dashing!

So, what do you think Mrs Brite does to her goat when people are not looking. Runs out giggling

Speaking of our caprine friends, what kind of items (Jade, Whispered Hints etc.) will you use to exchange for the 11712.80 echoes needed to by an Overgoat and why?

After earning a dreadful pittance from flogging off all the moon pearls going spare from my days of composing challenging music (how I miss the Barbed Wit!), Sally’s upkeep has been principally drawn from a heap of puzzling maps, which I have in ready supply (if people WILL keep trying to kill me when I’m eating my scones, I will just have to keep taking their stuff) thanks to my friendship with the Tomb-Colonists. Ah Lettice, you are quite a girl.

Where would take your beloved on your very first date?

I think the obvious best place is the feast of the exceptional rose, with it coming up. Will be my first feast, but I’m sure I’ll be fine.

What is your favorite neathy pun? I only have so much material.

Here is one of mine below:

My friend had been acting oddly recently, hoarding thousands of amber peices and working tirelessly to obtain favors and wine. When I asked him why he was doing such a thing, he told me about his dream to one day be the captain of a massive ship. He wouldn’t give up even after I pointed out that he has nowhere to keep it and he cannot sail. One could say that his efforts were all for yacht.

Edit:spoiler wasn’t acting right.

Have you heard of the Fourth City? People say it’s pretty BAZAAR (bizzare)!
-laughs silently for three minutes-

Would you rather spend an evening on a heart-felt romantic retreat across the Zee with a rubbery man, clay man, or a tomb-colonist?

Pyro: You mean Tomb-colonists!, Pyro exclaimed. I’m look forward to having a wild, wet and dangerous zee ride with a pair of Merciful ladies!

Rudolph: Romance? Oh, better friends! Yes! Better friends with Squishy Men (Rubbery Men). Squishy Men is like me.

Question: If you can permanently give life to a certain item that you own at Polythreme, what would that be?
