Quotes About Your Character

[lamialawless]

As opposed to quotes by your character, what are some memorable things people have said about your character?

&quotAgent of the Masters, at least in the past. Granted, his new occupation is just as unhealthy to the unwary. Best not to get too close.&quot

&quotPretty sure [Feducci]'s like Passionario, but for the Presbyterate.&quot

&quotI’m a bit terrified for you. How under the earth…&quot

&quotThat’s what one gets for trying to learn from the best when the best are degenerating into cannibalistic horrors in thrall to an awful quest!&quot

&quotAre you the new Lilac?&quot

&quotReally, I hoped Passionario was dead…&quot

&quotI would say ‘poor Passionario’, but it’s Passionario.&quot

&quotTHAT GUY TRIES WAY TOO HARD TO IMPRESS EVERYBODY. DO YOU THINK HE HAS A REALLY TINY WIENER?&quot

&quotYour character is an utter dickhead. Sorry, but that’s the truth.&quot

‘He should have known better than to think Passionario could give him anything other than suffering.’

&quotI can’t kill Passionario, can I?&quot

&quotEli: F***&quot

Edit: I’ll be adding onto this post as time passes, so as to not clutter this thread and allow others to comment.

In forum:

[quote=Lamia Lawless]&quotWhen will people learn to stop hitting on Miss Syrus?&quot[/quote]
I personally don’t think anything will ever top this.

@Eglantine-Fox

&quotAfter this, we talk about who shoved a live rat up your rump, because it wasn’t me,&quot

Funny enough there was another version of this said outside of the forum. But I think this is the better version.

Outside of forum/In-game:

[quote=The Absurd Rogue]“More than that, you’ve proven yourself to be a smart and enterprising criminal, which is the exact type that this city deserves.&quot[/quote]

@Elias Lowe

&quotYou truly are a woman of many talents. You’re a zailor, a fisher, a legendary cook, an uncannily skilled flower arranger, you have the hand of the devil’s and the ear of the streets. How does one get to be so… amazing?&quot

<3

Friend: (Links me to an anecdote someone told that goes something like, &quotI was sitting at a diner drinking coffee and the waitress said, ‘Sorry for the tiny cups,’ and I blurted, ‘They sure are handsome little boys.’ And she just went silent and left and I can never eat here again.&quot (Sorry, I’d source if I could.))

Friend: This is Lamia

&quotShe sounds like Castiglione’s ideal,&quot another friend, who inspired me to incorporate that into my post about her background.

[estelleknoht]

I’ve never thought about that before, but you got my curiosity. Time for some google-fu!

[quote=Morkan Kassington]She is easily the happiest and cleanest thing he has seen in his entire life. Possibly an exaggeration.[/quote][quote=Rupho Schartenhauer]Oh, Estelle, please… my eyes… ;)[/quote][quote=Lady Sapho Byron]&quotEstelle Knoht, a JUVENILE, unreliable and respectable lady.&quot
I’m just sayin’.[/quote][quote=Andrew Astherson]If something utterly bad will ever happen to that juvenile, unreliable and respectable lady, nearly all Londoners will be busy destroying their livers (or other correspondent organs) in various bars, pubs and less respectable booze houses during the following half of a year.[/quote][quote=suinicide]That level of luck demands a bigger sacrifice.[/quote][quote=Vavakx Nonexus]Estelle, you never cease to terrify.[/quote][quote=Zareen Bakara]Even in the CVR, you are known for your kindness. For someone so young, you’ve done much good.[/quote][quote=Anatasia Swansong]Estelle Knoht, a barely sentient girl.[/quote][quote=Jackson Jin]The name stings just to read, even without the face or reputation behind it. An impressed youth looking up to me for my exploits in revenge? A rival seeking a challenger to push them to their limits? I can scarcely imagine why.

And so I take a peek behind the curtain. The name is like a key freshly forged, scalding hot to the touch but so malleable in the locks it can undo.

Like peering into the darkness under the Neath, but so much more. A presence so undeniable, so potent, it gives me pause to have missed it until now.

A peek back at the card. A request. A simple request to use me as a contact.

I’m left turning over the card again, as I realize the gravity of my new situation.

I cannot say no. Who could?[/quote][quote=absimiliard]I’m sure she meant no harm, but she is thoughtless and careless. I love her dearly, but for all her respectability she can be a brat.[/quote][quote=phryne]Estelle, I do sometimes wonder about you, I do.[/quote]

I am getting conflicted signals here… Anyway, the most prestigious of them:

About the Professor:

[quote=Morkan Kassington]1) The Professor was Semi-Respectable with rumours of bloodsucker surrounding her, but he didn’t expect her to be literally bloodthristy.
2) She doesn’t look like a man.[/quote]

[quote=Amelia Syrus]Amelia watches as the professor leave. She says nothing nor attempts to follow after her. It’s pointless to be an annoyance to someone who clearly wants space. But once the voice of reason departs the Salon itself descends into anarchy.

@Hark DeGaul

It warms my heart to see there are still (somewhat) honest Londoners roaming the streets, helping us rat catchers protect the innocent from rats, thwarting devils and spirifers and only occassionally mugging someone in a dark alley. Keep up the good work Professor!

@The Absurd Rogue

Professor Strix is a fascinating character to see being brought down to Fallen London.

@Estelle Knoht

By estimation, you are currently my 6th most self-pitying protege, so you are doing fine!

@Zoe DeGeest

She leave crumbs everywhere!!!

@The Absurd Rogue

Ezekiel burbles loudly and awkwardly. He seems happy and he is carrying a half empty mason jar of vinegar

About Derek:

@Morkan Kassington

Professor, your bat comes across a little dirty minded. A girl talks about Persuasion and he hears Seduction?

@Dirae Erynies

Parabola Derek looks to be quite charming. Until he opens his mouth of course.

(Sorry if i forgot any. I had so much fun looking for those.)

Updated mine.

On Gideon Stormstrider (mostly from IRC, discussing the Shade Hunt):

@John Moose

The line between Gideon and an evil villain is only as wide as a single book explaining the dangers of population growth.

@phryne

Would Gideon have an Element of Dawn somewhere in his shed?

Yes.

@Azothi

Would Gideon be the kind of person to have an Unclear device in the tunnels for research purposes?

Also yes.

@Drake Dynamo

GIDEON’S SHED OF WONDERS: OPEN TO ALL WHO CAN BRAVE THE TRAPS

@Barselaar

We should do a scene where everyone pokes around the armoury choosing one thing each they think will help, and then Gideon goes around like “this is a whisk…”

@suinicide

At the end, Gideon will kill the Shade with a giant chair powered death machine

@John Moose

&quotno blowing up is possible&quot seems a bold statement in any situation that involves Gideon

@suinicide

We could read &quotThe adventures of what Gideon thinks is happening&quot

@Bertrand Lyndon

Gideon is trying to kill us all
