Guess the character

[vilakins]

A fun meme from astrogirl2 and others.

I've made a list of 5 characters and assigned them all numbers. Ask me questions about them ("Is 3 human?" "Who's smarter, 4 or 5?" "What would 2 do if they discovered buried treasure?") and I'll answer. Your mission is to discover which character is which. I've done two versions, one easier (all Blake's 7 characters) and the other harder (anything goes).

Five Blake's 7 characters
1. Kerril
2. Zen
3. Anna Grant
4. Jarriere
5. Travis

Five characters from different fandoms
a. Hurley
b. Seven of Nine
c. Vir Cotto
d. Furlow
e. Garak

{Edit:] All guessed now; thanks to those who played. :-)

OK...

What's 1's hairstyle?
Did 2 kill any of the other people on the list? If so, who?
If a ran for president, what would the campaign platform be?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Shoulder-length and either tied back or out.
No.

Lots of welfare and food for all, and an end to all bigotry including that based on appearance.

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Didn't kill anybody hmm? Is 2 Gan? :)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

No. And perhaps I should point out that wasn't exactly your question. :-)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Off to bed now, so don't expect any answers for about 8 hours.

If c, d and e had a meal, what would they eat, and who would make it?

What is b best at?

If a and 5 had to work together to save the world, would we be doomed?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

I can't imagine any of them doing much cooking, but I'd say c would make the meal. C would eat spoo and object strongly to roast duck; d would probably eat anything and everything, spiced with the machine oil on their fingers; e would be polite enough to eat what they're served, eat sparingly out of caution, and be complimentary without being effusive.

B is best at technical tasks, astronomy and navigation, and looking good while obviously not giving a damn.

Possibly; a certainly would be. :-)

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing C is Vir. And d might be Kaylee?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Yes, c is Vir!
D is not Kaylee.

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I'm going to guess... Is 4 Tarrant?

And since you said "not now," has b been an artificial intelligence at some time in the past?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

No.

B was part of one.

[kerravonsen]

Is b Seven of Nine?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Yes! :-D

[kerravonsen]

Is a human?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[kerravonsen]

But a total wimp, eh? Stanley Tweedle?

Are you able to set up your Skype at the moment? I'd like to see if I can get mine working.

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

No, not a wimp, but not the fighty type. You may not know him as you've never posted about this fandom.

Hmm, let's see. I can see the earphones and they appear to be plugged in. I can give it a go. I haven't used it for ages.

[mistraltoes.livejournal.com]

Is a Hurley?
Is 5 female?
Would you like to meet 3?
Is 4 an introvert?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Yes, a is Hurley!
No.
Not particularly.
I don't think so. :-)

[mistraltoes.livejournal.com]

Have 3 and 5 met?
Would 4 rather be stuck in an elevator with 3 or 5?
Would 3 rather read fiction or non-fiction?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

No.
Definitely with 3.
Fiction.

[lizamanynames.livejournal.com]

What hair colour do 5 and e have?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

You mean 3? Light brown.

E has black hair or very dark brown.

[lizamanynames.livejournal.com]

I *DID* mean 3, thank you...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... male, female, or other?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

3 is female (already answered), e is male.

OK, here are some of the previous answers related to them.

3 is famale.
3 is not Soolin.
3 prefers guns to spaceships.
3 is not Dayna; she is not on the crew.
3 is not Servalan.
3 has not met Travis.
Jarriere would rather be stuck in a lift with 3 than with Travis.

E would be polite enough to eat what he's served, eat sparingly out of caution, and be complimentary without being effusive.
