The femme fatale, of course...
[spoiler]"The Femme Fatale is sexy and they know it. Made famous by Film Noir and hard-boiled detective stories, they manipulate and confuse The Hero with their undeniable aura of sexiness and danger. The Hero knows that they're walking trouble and knows much more about the bad guys than The Hero might or they should, but damn it if they can't resist their enticing wiles. You are seen as naturally seductive by your peers. You have such an amazing way of words that others are willing to do anything for you. You love to gossip and engage in drama, even if it is none of your business. But besides that, you are proud of yourself as a person and love everything that you are. And you should be! You're fierce!"[/spoiler]

Estelle Knoht is The Damsel (in Distress), apparently.
[spoiler]A character, usually female (but can be anybody), is put into immediate danger in order to put the cast in motion. Their plight unites the cast, causing them to put aside their differences and work together to save them or provide the premise for the quest. But, necessarily, this isn't always the case! (Note the parentheses!) This could also mean you're someone who is capable of bringing people together in times of need. You are often very dependent on others, but not all the time. It's more of when there is an important decision to made and where everyone's opinions need to be heard. You don't like taking charge because you like to go with the flow of things. People describe you as kindhearted and honest. You're also naturally sociable and positive.[/spoiler]
.....I am going to resume putting people in the IRRIGO DEATHBOX for now.

Remarkably Lord Gazter apparently is the Femme Fatale. I am undecided as to if this is idea is incredibly ridiculous or whether there is something to it.

Ooft, the Tragic Hero.
Feels relatively spot on, although he leans heavier into being tragic than he does into being a hero - something to work on!

The Rival for Amelia
[spoiler]
The grim, volatile foe of the protagonist, who, through a series of inexplicable events up to and including attempted murder, gains grudging respect for said hero/heroine (and may even save them) and goes from intolerable to tolerable. You're very confident and have pep in your step. People who don't know you describe you as stubborn, but in fact you have a very open-mind. You're able to see both sides of the situation, but it's hard for you to admit that you're wrong. You stick to your vices and never falter, even if your opinion is seen as wrong. For those on your side, they look up to you and value your ideals. You speak with raw pride. You're straightforward and like to get right to the point during most conversations. You are more fueled by emotion rather than logic. You also love competition, being number one is very important to you.
This is honestly spot on too.[/spoiler]

Professor Strix is the Rival, apparently, but it must have been almost a tie with something else, because half of the characteristics of the rival are in flagrant opposition to things I know I marked. Not a bad result, though, considering... No, let me not say it yet. 
Edit: Wait wait, now I saw that there is a breakdown of your answers. Let me see...
4 Rival
4 Mentor
4 Villain
3 Tragic Hero
2 Anti-Hero
2 Jester
1 Side-kick
1 Damsel (in distress)
1 Protagonist
Wait wait wait WAIT, spending an afternoon reading a book is a VILLAIN trait? Not wanting other people's money is a villain trait? What is that all about?
Other than that, the breakdown seem much more in line with her. She is a bit of all those things, particularly the most picked. I SUPPOSE villain applies, if being a cranky mad scientist who prefers reading over partying makes you a villain. *shrugs*

I guess I couldn't really answer all of this as my character, but that's probably because im not really forcing my character into doing anything specific that would fit him as much as I just do what I would do myself(not sure if there is a much better way to explain this).
The Jester.

The Six Handed Merchant finishes the quiz in the back of The Magazine Formerly Known As The London Magazine and puts their quill down with a frown.
"Sidekick...Sidekick? SIDEKICK?!!"
Six balls up the paper.
"I never believed in these foolish quizzes anyway."
Five minutes later, Six has flattened out the paper once again and is busy editing their answers until a more suitable result emerges.

The Turkish Storyteller

Apparently, my character -- the Turkish Storyteller -- is the femme fatale. Aside from being male, he's also a straight-laced Muslim clergyman/dervish-mystic. He's a player in the Great Game, as a member of both the feared Ottoman secret police, as well as anti-nationalist Revolutionary societies tied to Sufi orders and religious organisations. I suppose he is manipulative, and charismatic, and has a magnetic personality...and he's far more comfortable with "djinn" (Devils) than a Christian cleric would be...and Scheherazade-style storytelling/story-collecting is his MO as a diplomat...but still. Harrumph harrumph.

I got side kick.
[spoiler]
The friends and helpers of the main hero. They can be almost any type of hero playing a secondary role, a normal character observing the action, or be used as comic relief -- sometimes all three. Typically they are a foil to the hero, and this is often underscored by their dramatically different appearance. You like to be the friend of everyone around you and help out others whenever you can. You often hold the role of someone's self control and you can be very supportive when you have to be. You're a bright ray of sunshine in your friend's life and they love having you around!
[/spoiler]
Hmmmmmm. Sometimes?

Whelp, the recent-most incarnation of the Game-Carver got 'The Villain'. Appropriately enough it even comes with a little snek symbol.
[spoiler]
The bad guys. The mad scientists, the cruel executives, the evil witches and wizards, the corrupt politicians, the mortal aspects of pure evil, and, more often than not, the people (or otherwise) that instigate the conflict and the story. You are a very determined individual with a very strict set of rules. Your mind is mostly thinking about how you can reach your goals and conquer your ambitions. You are often described as cunning and intelligent by the few who stick by your side. You like sticking to the shadows and observing, rather than interacting and taking action.
[/spoiler]
Now we bet on how much time it'll take us to change that alignment.

Amyntas got the damsel, which makes sense. He's a helpless little muffin who keeps largely to himself. He's not very sociable, though; he prefers to keep to himself, acting cordially towards others when it is necessary. Still, it fits better than any other possibility on the list.
