Yes, I was at Euro Party in the Netherlands this summer. I loved it, and though I was surprised at the level of drunkness, I will definitly do it again. Am currently planing to go to Euro Winter Party in Slindon. People should come to put RL names and faces on people they've seen online. I'm no good at remembering who people are, but having spoken to them RL helps. Besides, it makes people connect at a different level. And I also think people who wouldn't necessarily spoken on the boards get a chance to get together RL. Sometimes they end up married or bonded or first sisters later. | Yes, I was at Euro Party in the Netherlands this summer.

Ebona din Casei, Senior Member Interview, January 29, 2008
What's your Tower name?
Ebona din Casei
When were you raised to Aes Sedai of the Blue Ajah?
4th of November 2007
Why did you choose Blue?
To make a LONG explanation short: That's where I felt the most at home. If you want a longer answer, send me a PM.
Are you like the Blues in the Books?
Somewhat, but like all RL people I have stripes.
Do you plot and manipulate? Do you travel a lot?
Yes, I plot and manipulate, but usually only to help people or to make people happy. As to traveling: Define "a lot". I like to travel, however, traveling is expensive so I only travel when I'm going somewhere I need to travel to. I don't travel for the sake of travel, there must be some cause for it.
How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
Great. I was a citizen for the minimum amount of time, intent on going to the Tower. I was a Novice for the minimum amount of time. I was also an Accepted for a relatively short time period. Even though my time as JM was short, I enjoyed every step of the way.
How long have you been a member of TV.net?
31.12.2006, which means approximately 10 months.
What things do you do for TV.net?
I taught a class, and am in the process of writing a huge article about the same topic (Atha'an Miere). I try to be welcoming and helpful to new and confused members. Oh, and I just signed up to be a Mentor and a Shendar, though I don't have any charges yet.
How did you get to read the Series?
I found the first books in a norwegian translation at my local library when I was around 13. Read the first 3 or 4 books, and then gave up waiting for new ones to be published. A couple of years later I borrowed the entire series in english from a friend (book 1-10). And finally, when I was 19, I bought all the books (the black paperbacks with the wheel on the front), book 0-11. Since then, I've read them 3 times.
To whom are you bonded, if you're bonded?
Not bonded.
Who is your mentee, if you have one?
No mentee yet.
Who's your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?
Being a bit biased, since I'm doing a lot of research on them, I must say that the Atha'an Miere are my favorites. Egwene is definately my favorite character.
Have you ever attended any Real Life Functions? Did you like them if you did, and why? (Why do you think people should come to any future functions?)
Yes, I was at Euro Party in the Netherlands this summer. I loved it, and though I was surprised at the level of drunkness, I will definitly do it again. Am currently planing to go to Euro Winter Party in Slindon. People should come to put RL names and faces on people they've seen online. I'm no good at remembering who people are, but having spoken to them RL helps. Besides, it makes people connect at a different level. And I also think people who wouldn't necessarily spoken on the boards get a chance to get together RL. Sometimes they end up married or bonded or first sisters later.
What kind of music do you like?
I don't know enough about music to answer that question. I'm just not a music-person. Music isn't important to me.
What are your favorite movies?
Same as with music, it varies with my mood, who I'm with etc. Besides, I don't know much about movies, so I don't think I can answer the question. It's easier to say what I don't like: Horror movies. I hate being startled or scared. I also don't like movies where people make fools of themselves all the time (i.e. American Pie), the humor is too imature.
What's the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done?
There are two:
1. Meeting a guy I'd spoken with online in real life and fooling around with him in a public park for many, many hours. Oh, and I was 15, he was 26, and we had never met RL before and hadn't chatted for more than a month or two.
2. Going off to England to meet the family of a guy I had just met in Paris the day before. Oh, and I was 17. I can elaborate on this if you want me to.
I'm sure there are others, but these where the ones I could think of.
What job do you have?
Part time in a bookshop and part time as a phone interviewer.
Do you have a pet?
No, not RL. On the site I have a s'redit called Nesh and a "pet citizen" (who's now a soldier) named Izanagi.
What languages do you speak?
Norwegian, English, French and I'm rapidly getting fluent in Norwegian Sign Language.
hat profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
According to my mom, I once said I wanted to be "either a brain surgeon or a garbage truck driver". I can't remember this. Most of my life I wanted to become a "-ologist", in other words some kind of scientist. Top on my list was archaeologist, paleontologist and astro-physicist.

Siuan
Shienar or Saldaea?
