;Why did you choose Brown?
+
''December 22, 2011''
Although I love the other Ajahs, there was no other choice for me. I enjoy research and learning. In addition, the Browns on this site are the most laid back and intelligent group of women. I'm obviously biased.
 
  
  
;Are you like the Browns in the Books?
+
*;Why did you choose Brown?
Absolutely.
+
There was no other choice for me. The Browns on this site are a wonderful group of women (and Warders). We're diverse and laid back.  
  
 +
*;Are you like the Browns in the books? Do you love books and have a tendency to daydream?
 +
Yes. I'm working on a doctorate in History and I work part-time at a bookstore. My life is books. Hopefully, I'm not as frumpy as some of the Browns portrayed in the books though.
  
;Do you love books and do you daydream a lot?
+
*;Do you have a favorite Brown Ajah character from the novels?
Yes.
+
Saerin
  
 +
*;How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series?
 +
I first read Eye of the World when I was thirteen, so nearly fourteen years now.
  
;How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
+
*;How did you first get into the series?  
I loved every stage of the Tower, though being a citizen could be frustrating because of all the spam. It was wonderful getting to know different people in the Tower at each level. Being a Novice and Accepted was wonderful as I met some people who are now close friends.
+
My dad picked the first book up for me, though he has yet to read them.  
  
 +
*;Who is your favorite "hero"?
 +
I'm partial to Mat.
  
;How long have you been a member of TV.net?
+
*;Favorite bad guy/gal?
Since 2004, but active again only for about two years.
+
I have to actually remember characters?  I don't know. All of the Forsaken seem pretty petty. I like a little more complexity with my villains.  
  
 +
*;Favorite book and scene?
 +
The first is probably the best, but then again, I haven't read it since I was thirteen... I did really enjoy the scene in (was it Crossroads of Twilight?) in which Tuon completes the marriage ceremony with Mat.
  
;What things do you do for TV.net?
+
*;If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain?  
Right now, I'm working on a research project for the Tower library, though it has been put on hold while I apply to graduate school. I hope I contribute in a positive way.
+
Seanchan innkeeper. I would be very good at honoring the Empress, may she live forever.  
  
 +
*;How did you find TarValon.Net and what convinced you to stay and become Tower Sworn?
 +
I happened upon it after one of the books was published in 2004 and later returned to the site in 2006. Our community is diverse and a wonderful place to meet amazing people from different parts of the globe.
  
;How did you get to read the Series?
+
*;What do you do in "real life"?  
I discovered the books when I was about thirteen. I loved fantasy and adventure at that age and so I picked up Eye of the World and was hooked.
+
I'm a poor graduate student and teaching assistant. In short, I do a lot of reading, complaining, grading, and BS-ing.  
  
 +
*;Do you have any hobbies?
 +
I enjoy reading and writing for pleasure (not essays or dissertations), running, comic books.
  
;To whom are you bonded, if you're bonded?
+
*;What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?  
Not bonded.
+
Eclectic. Anything from Bach to Elvis to LCD Soundsystem.  
  
 +
*;What are some of your favorite movies / television shows?
 +
I love Miyasaki's work: Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, etc., Goodbye Lenin!, the usual nerd fare, like Star Wars, LotR. A few television shows I enjoy are Arrested Development, Mad Men, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Batman: The Animated Series, The Wire.
  
;Who is your mentee, if you have one?
+
*;Aside from The Wheel of Time, what are a few of your favorite books/series?  
I do not yet have a mentee.
+
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, South of the Border, West of the Sun by Haruki Murakami I don't know - I read a lot of history. It's very difficult to list just a few books...  
  
 +
*;What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
 +
Veterinarian. I love animals.
  
;Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?
+
==Super Official and Srs Bzns Brown Interview==
I have numerous favourite characters. I'm fond of Nynaeve, Verin, Mat, Tuon, Cadsuane, and a few others I find interesting.
+
''July 12, 2019''
My favourite nation is Arafel.
 
  
 +
;What's your blood type?
 +
O-
  
;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?)
+
;Zodiac sign?
I attended Europarty this past year, and I loved it. I was raised to Aes Sedai so it was a very positive experience. Everyone was warm and friendly and it was great putting faces to posts.
+
Pisces
It's really up to the person if they want to attend a real life function. It is a time and money commitment and can be intimidating, but it's also a fantastic experience and a great way to meet people from all over the world.
 
  
 +
;Hogwarts house?
 +
Slytherin
  
;What kind of music do you like?
+
;Myers-Briggs type?
I can't narrowly define my music taste. I like a variety of genres, including glam, pop, classical, folk, rock, etc.
+
INFP last time I checked, but I sometimes think this is what I *aspire* to be... not what I actually am.
  
 +
;D&D alignment?
 +
Neutral good
  
;What are your favorite movies?
+
;Favorite color?
Big fan of nature documentaries
+
Blue or Gray
  
 +
;Favorite cryptid?
 +
I'm partial to the Chupacabra or the Jersey Devil. I blame X-Files.
  
;What is the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done?
+
;Favorite member of the MCU?
There have been too many embarrassing stupid things I've done to count. I'm not a huge risk taker though, so not too many "crazy things."
+
I suffer from comic book movie fatigue at the moment. But Thor.
  
 +
;Favorite Star Wars character?
 +
Really, really difficult to choose one. In the new films, I like Kylo Ren, but I think it's because of Adam Driver. Probably Obi-wan. If you had asked me when I was fifteen, I would have told you Wicket or Logray the Ewok Medicine Man. :p

;Favorite letter?
I currently teach English as a second language in Hungary.

Yes, only the most adorable cat in the world, Mr. B. Unfortunately, he lives with my parents right now.

English and German

Writer or Professor

Seanchan

Board games

Coke
 
 
 
 
 
;A short bio about yourself.
 
I'm 22, I currently live in Szekesfehervar, Hungary, I'm travelling quite a bit right now, I enjoy history, hiking, comic books, and I think portly animals and young children look better than those of the skinny persuasion.
