There's an assassin? DAMNIT! I coulda been stabbing!
He must have gotten distracted and lost the mission.
I fight better with armor on and with weapons in my hands and strapped to wherever I can fit straps.
Is it true, then, that adventurers never have to go to the bathroom?
Haven't met this Ed character... should I be flattered or frightened?
As a butt-kicking silver-haired beauty who frequently enjoys not wearing clothes... I'd say flattered.
I know you hate to be called "Meri." Are there any nicknames you are OK with, or does everyone have to call you "Merisiel" on pain of stabbity vengeance?

next time your companions are asleep could you put a fez on each of them and take a picture?
Cameras are anachronistic, alas, so I can't take a picture. But I will fez them up for you anyway. You'll just have to take my word for it that it turned out as awesome as you hoped it would.

are Lem's jokes any good?
OMG YES.
Ha.Yes.
"What's the difference between a dwarf and a bucket of otyugh puke?"
"THE BUCKET!"
"What do you call a dwarf with twenty arrows in his gut?"
"A good start."
"Why do dwarves make their wedding cakes out of goblin dung?"
"To keep the flies off the bride."
HAAHAHAHAH
ha
Harsk's reaction to those was even funnier. Lem's jokes are the gifts that keep on giving.

Maybe.
Nope... we tinkle like the rest of you.
I'm kinda okay with "Stabby," but for the most part if you can't take the time to say my full name, I don't feel obligated to take the time to pay attention to you.

I am interested by your opinion about Damiel the alchemist and Alain, the jerkavalier.
And a private question : What do you fear ?
I don't really hang out with either of them too much, to be honest, so I can't really give you much of an opinion except that neither of them is my type. Damiel's too twitchy and smells too funny. And Alain's more into Alain than anyone else, which makes no sense to me, cause there's just not all that much going on there to be into.
I don't fear ANYTHING, by the way. So don't try to figure it out. Cause it's a waste of time. Yeah. Total waste of time. It certainly isn't bats. That's for damn sure. Nope. Not bats at all.

Hey-ya there! Some time reader an' part time watcher, Iv'e jus' a quick question.
Whut were it what put her feets on'a road t' becomin' an iconical?
An' whut'ere th' hints an' handy tips ye c'n be m'be sharin' with a young Elf who's jus' startin' out, t' mayhap be givin 'em a helpin' hand, kind o' thing?
Much cheers t' ye an' yours! (^_^)

Does Seltyiel play up his image for attention or is he really like that all the time?
Have you considered starknives?
Is Imrijka really one of those standoffish Jerk With A Heart Of Gold types like someone else inferred or something else entirely?
He's like that all the time. Kinda a drama queen.
I have... but they're a little too complicated for me, to be honest. Thrown daggers don't do much less damage, and it's easier to hit someone in the eye with them anyway.
Imrijka's another one of those newbies I haven't really hung out with yet. I do approve of her hat, though.

I didn't set out to become iconic... it just sort of happened. I'm not totally sure I like all the attention. Some of the time it's awesome. Other times... not.
Best thing to do starting out? Make sure you team up with fellow adventurers who know what they're doing, aren't shrill and cantankerous and stodgy, and are cute!

Merisel, you should wear a fez, I have it on good authority that Fezzes are cool. Although a picture of you with a Stetson has some possibilities.

Well, if you DID, you wouldn't be the first legendary hero to fear bats.
Have you ever stabbed someone, fatally or non-fatally, and then regretted doing so?
Have you ever been stabbed yourself? If so, did it have any effect on your enthusiasm for stabbing others?
Amiri: sexy or scary?
Do you hate being called a Forlorn Elf? Because you don't seem very forlorn.
Who is the best kisser you've ever kissed? Feel free to categorize by male and female, and to embarrass your friends as much as you'd like with your answer.
Have you been working on the less stabby aspects of the rogue profession, such as picking pockets or finding traps?
Would you ever use a poisoned blade, or do you think poison is for people who aren't good enough at stabbing to get the job done without help?

Merisiel Sillvari |

What would be your ideal weapon, in terms of material, type and enchantments?
With no restriction on cost?
Melee: +5 mithral flaming burst speed rapier of subtlety. And yes, I'm aware that the +5 part makes the mithral part irrelevant—the fact is that I think mithral weapons are shiny and sexy. Just because you have a +5 weapon doesn't give you a free pass on style.
Ranged: +5 mithral defending distance returning flaming burst luck blade dagger. With rechargeable wishes.

Eew. You never know how long ago it was that a monkey wore that fez.

Yes, no.Sexy AND scary.
Nah, I don't care what other people call me.
Succubi, although you gotta be careful with them on account of the getting killed if you don't watch what you're doing. Priests and priestesses of Calistria are a close second.
Yup! Of course!
Poison is most definitely NOT off the list. It just tends to get expensive is all.

Oh it must be one of those new Stealth Bats.

Occasionally a rogue will pick up stuff that their travelling companions regard as their personal property.
How frequently does this misunderstanding arise with you? Never? Sometimes, but just with real stick-in-the-muds that don't count as friends? Lots of times? Or never, but only because you are way too tricksy to let them know what's happening?

Give her some credit, man. She's an elf, not a kender.

Merisiel Sillvari |

What's your earliest memory?
Do your first and last names mean anything in Elvish, or are they just names?
I remember a bat getting tangled in my hair as a kid. People who say they don't do that have never had a bat get tangled in their hair.
My names do indeed mean something—ME!
(And the language is "Elven," not Elvish.)

Ummm... never?
Stealing stuff from friends is a really good way to not keep friends. Rogues who do that are better suited to be loners and weirdos who live in alleys and talk to stains on the walls and maybe drink too much and smell like cabbage stew left in the sun too long. Either that, or they're looking for a stabbing on general principle.

Talonne Hauk wrote:Give her some credit, man. She's an elf, not a kender.Yes, of course. But asking a rogue "how often do you steal from the party" seems like inviting a stabbing.
(rolls eyes)
Just because I know how to fight with style and don't need to wear ugly armor and don't bother casting silly spells and am sneakier than you doesn't also automatically mean I don't understand the difference between what's mine and what's not mine.
Again... folks who get all grabby and snatchy are jerks and should be pushed into a well where a monster lives and then maybe sprinkled with rot grubs.
Actually, I didn't yet say that, so saying "again" doesn't make much sense, but still.
Rot grubs.

merisiel,
what style of fashion do you prefer when you are not adventuring? i personally prefer the kimono.
it would be highly discomforting for you to wear all those belts 24/7
what style of rogue are you?
i am personally a ninja of sorts
do you have advice on how a godling ninja can overcome the drawbacks of her massive level adjustment?
