So guys you run into a lot of things when you’re a blogger, but the one thing every blogger knows by their second week is that there is only one thing which it is impossible to escape: TAGS.

We all have tags coming out our ears. I was tagged for this one, and though I don’t know if I’ll do it on my blog I thought it would be really fun to dump here and see what everybody comes up with.

Which of your characters are…

Most likely to be a poet

Most likely to dance in the rain

Most likely to get punched in the face

Most likely to drop everything and become a sheep herder

Most likely to be found in the library

Most likely to sleep through an earthquake

Most likely to steal food from other people’s plates

Most likely to cheat on a test

Most likely to say “oops” after setting something on fire

Most likely to open an orphanage

Most likely to run off with the circus

Most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse 

Most likely to fake their own death

Most likely to die and haunt their friends

Now let me do this. *smirky smirky*

Most likely to be a poet:

Malin, the antagonist from Remnant. He was raised in seclusion by two people who are not his parents and have a very obsessive, stifling ‘love’ but are really just using him as a tool because of his royal blood. He only has one friend, his cousin Raegon, but after they grew up his guardians forbade them to see each other because Raegon was in line to inherit the throne, which is what the guardians want to use Malin for. He spends all of his time alone, basically under house arrest until his guardians need something from him, and has many dark and passionate thoughts that would drive him to express himself with poetry, since he has no one else to talk to.

Most likely to dance in the rain:

Lindel, the love interest from Valiant and the queen from Uncharted. She grew up in the mountains, running everywhere she wanted, cultivating flowers, selling mushrooms, and concocting herbal remedies for the sick and infirm in the surrounding villages, which gave her a strong body and a happy mind. She’s not without her cares, especially in her later years when she’s wife of the king, but her optimism is almost unshakeable.

Most likely to get punched in the face:

Dallan, the snobby prince/brat from Uncharted. He’s a snobby prince/brat. ‘Nuff said. Oh, and he did get punched in the face.

Most likely to drop everything and become a sheep herder:

Trevelian Tirnan, the protagonist from Harbinger. His charismatic, forceful personality is the magnet that enables him to hold a rag-tag rebellion together in the middle of a magic-poisoned, fire-blasted continent where wraiths, dragons, goblins, and all sorts of other horrors roam at will, but his quieter, sadder side is tired of the world, tired of the way it works, tired of pain, tired of the God who supposedly delights in the suffering of His people. He would find rest in the mindless peace of herding sheep, at least for a time.

Most likely to be found in the library:

Dunstan, protagonist from Valiant and king from Uncharted. He grew up in a very shattered home in the middle of a secluded, backwards valley that had very little touch with the outside world. He had a few books (one on basic agriculture, one on the botany of ferns, and one on architecture), and once he grew up and went into the wide world and actually had as many books as he could ask for at his fingertips, he became addicted to knowledge. The scarcity of it when he was a child gave him a deep hunger for it that lasted all his life.

Most likely to sleep through an earthquake:

Irwyn from Fallen. Oldest son of a king who has the energy and drive to explore and subdue entire continents, founding kingdoms in long-empty lands, but he sleeps like a literal log. He would probably just think it was his dog climbing into bed with him, roll over, and go back to sleep.

Most likely to steal food from other people’s plates:

Loman from Immortal. A young seer/prophet of sorts who loves people (children most of all) from the bottom of his heart but also has way too much fun messing with them. He would probably take it too far and eat some poor kid’s entire dinner without really realizing it, then panic when the kid started crying and scrape all the food off his own plate and painstakingly feed it to him bite by bite.

Most likely to cheat on a test:

Zella from Morhorven. Scribe in a society of immortal rainsingers (water powers) who live under the ocean. She’s plenty smart, but more than a little snappy and likes to do things ‘her way’. She would cheat to make a point, not because she couldn’t take it fairly. Has also been known to tell people she didn’t like to ‘go shake hands with a jellyfish’.

Most likely to say “oops” after setting something on fire:

Denholm from Uncharted. The biggest sweetheart to ever walk the face of the earth, a little out-of-it, but also a lot deeper than most people give him credit for. The fire would be an accident, but the ‘oops’ would be a deliberate choice to keep things… lighthearted. XD

Most likely to open an orphanage:

Farran from Fallen. He’s a hunchback/cripple and the third son of a very busy, powerful king who loves him but is too distant, preoccupied, and a little bit uncomfortable with his deformity to really be much of a father. Farran is too sensible to really be bitter, but given the chance he would open an orphanage and try his best to give fatherless children some sort of home, and if you asked him why he would tell you simply that everyone needs a father; he would know.

Most likely to run off with the circus:

Eavan, protagonist from Awakening. He would do it out of spite and disgust and desperation. He has a bad speech defect that forever disqualifies him in the eyes of his superiors from ever being anything that he’s supposed to be (another prince; I have a lot of those XD) and loathes being written off, brushed aside, and treated like a pair of worn-out shoes. He would do it in a fit of anger, stay for a week, repent, cry, and come back to apologize and try all over again.

Most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse:

Ivar, Irwyn’s brother from Fallen. He’s like a stone book— keeps to himself, doesn’t let anyone in, and does what needs done without a trace of emotion or hesitation. He’d survive, but I cringe to think of the different sins he might commit to do it. 😛

Most likely to fake their own death:

Dolan, another king from Uncharted. He would do it from sheer boredom, to spy on the reaction out of morbid amusement, and also semi-hopeful that he’d find someone who really loved him enough as a person to be sad that he’s gone, instead of just wrangling for his throne.

Most likely to die and haunt their friends:

Nisien, antagonist from Awakening. He would derive much twisted amusement from it. Only problem is, he doesn’t have any friends.
