Yeah I remember that one, so I must be ahead of you. There are four contestants remaining for me.

I just finished Danish Week

And that, children, is what the history books call "A Bigger Oof"

Merciful Domi! I'm on Collection 6 too!! And Terry does indeed have a fabulous mustache.

@Sorana Thanks, friend! So in essence, I shouldn't assume that they don't notice something, but mention how stealthy and sneaky my character is, and wait to see if their character 'notices'.

yaay! I would say neither. It's not like you woke up one day and thought, 'gee, I think I'll taste horrible today!'

This was actually my exact question, fish taste horrible. I usually use bits of hotdog as bait. Can I join, too? Also, if I do get in, should I change my routine "hello, friends!" to "hello, fish!"?

Here is my Alleyverse character: Also, @Voidus, I misunderstood for a moment and accidentally PM-ed this to you as well, so... oops.

Ahh, thanks @Rushu42!

I am considering joining the Alleyverse, but I am not too familiar with RP's in general. How does the Alleyverse/Freeforms handle things should go unnoticed for a time. For example, if one character who is an expert thief pickpockets another character, but wants to do it unnoticed, how do they do it? Or, if an assassin sneaks into a room and stabs someone in the back?

I usually play classical and sometimes a bit of fiddle. I've technically been playing for twelve years, but I've taken some breaks. How about you?

Merciful Domi, me too! I love playing the violin! (I also sing, but I'm not very good at it) Also, I have seven siblings, and 20 cousins, if I give you all of their descriptions, could you do an individual portrait of each one? (just kidding )

What instruments do you play (or do you sing)? What music artists do you like?

One's will to survive, Is that really the answer, To be successful? Good morning, sules. I am drinking dirt water: A.k.a Coffee.

What is it to win, To be declared a winner, Or to be happy?

Hello, friend! Welcome to the Shard! I too, love music (I haven't reached the Music Nerd ranking quite yet though) and listen to it while I read. What music do you listen to when you read?

@DramaQueen Merciful Domi does that look fun!! I think I'll wait till I finish all of the Cosmere books first, but then I am so pumped to do it! (I looked it up and read a few raps)

@PleatherDuster Some very good points! I would definitely agree that Vin is the main character of Era 1. She is the one the reader is meant to track for the majority of the books. By the literary definition, however, she may or may not be the protagonist, depending on what you think. Edit: Please don't feel inclined to read this whole thing, I got kind of carried away... In every story, there is conflict. Conflict in literature is when a someone (the protagonist) wants something, and someone or something else (the antagonist) is getting in the way of that something. There are different types of conflict. Man vs. man and man vs. self are the two main types. Man v. man is where one person is pitted against another. Man v. self is where one person is pitted against themselves. Even if they don't know it, they are the thing keeping themselves from what they want. Like someone who wants to be happy, but is depressed because they are unhappy with the way they look. Their thoughts may be what is keeping them from being happy. An example of literary analyzation: in Little Red Riding Hood, the girl tries to bring her grandmother flowers, and the wolf stops her by eating her grandmother and eventually her. Assuming that little red riding hood is the protagonist, we have to ask what she really wants. Does she want to bring her grandmother flowers, or is it something more. Maybe she wants to make her grandmother happy, and does that through bringing flowers. The antagonist of the story would be the wolf, who eats the grandmother and therefore gets in the way of what riding hood wants. The story is resolved because the farmer cuts open the wolf, and gets them both out. Riding Hood has what she wants, her grandmother is happy, and the story ends. Little Red Riding Hood is a man v. man conflict, Little Red Riding Hood against the wolf. In Mistborn, what does Vin want, I mean truly want? Who gets in the way of what she wants. Perhaps this book is a man v. self conflict, where Vin wants to be loved. The literary protagonist and the main character aren't always the same person, so the protagonist could be Sazed. Sazed may want to know the truth. Or he may want to feel safe. There is no wrong answer in literature, as long as they are backed well. I apologize for the density of this, I get wordy when I get excited about the technicalities of literature. If my literature teacher saw this, I think she would either be really proud of my understanding on the issue, or on the ground laughing at my explanation.

@Nathrangking Thank you, friend!

Relief floods The Fox, There is another thinker, One who understands. Her thoughts burst out fast, Unrestrained and uncontained They yell loud, “freedom!” “Help the wounded souls, Save those who have lost themselves, That makes a human. Humans help and hurt. They give, and they take away. They love and they hate. How do we remain, A helper and a giver, A lover to all? Now, undeserved love, That is the most powerful. How to relay it? What is life, but love? Is it love, or truth, or joy? Is it about peace? Who do humans serve? They always serve somebody, God, others, themselves?” Her thoughts scurry back, Relieved to have seen the sun, but ready for home. They lock themselves tight: A cave, ever to fight, Until the next time. Earth has gone awry, A girl watches with sad eyes. At last, the sun sets.

(Sorry, I was on a roll, I forgot) Yearn for the right truth, My lovely little human, Will you discover? We pretend life’s good, A pain ravages our souls, A incomplete quest. That last one was dark, Maybe a bit untrue, but, What’s truth anyway? This is so much fun! I love inciting deep thought, Making others squirm. Perhaps not squirm, It was too perfect a line To keep to myself Does the Fox remain Alone and un-refuted? Am I the winner? My dear, dear friends. Have I left you all speechless? That was desired Ok, so I lied. Many worthy opponents, Why no challenges The Fox shakes her head ”a pity,” she says sadly, “I am TYRANNY” I am a mixture. Ham and Shallan had a babe, She was called the Fox. Quick-tongued and questions, The Fox rarely has sules. They’re afraid of thought. The Fox tried to think, But ended up confusing. Are you confused?

Isn’t life a game? Depressed humans flittering, Yearning for constants.

What defines a truth? Are perspectives not fleeting? Life is confusing.

Strong minds and soft minds, What defines intelligence? It’s an illusion.
