Senior Member Interview

January 29, 2008


When were you raised to Aes Sedai of the Brown Ajah?

August 2007 at Europarty in the Netherlands


Why did you choose Brown?

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?

Absolutely.


Do you love books and do you daydream a lot?

Yes.


How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

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.


How long have you been a member of TV.net?

Since 2004, but active again only for about two years.


What things do you do for TV.net?

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.


How did you get to read the Series?

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.


To whom are you bonded, if you're bonded?

Not bonded.


Who is your mentee, if you have one?

I do not yet have a mentee.


Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?

I have numerous favourite characters. I'm fond of Nynaeve, Verin, Mat, Tuon, Cadsuane, and a few others I find interesting. My favourite nation is Arafel.


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?)

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. 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.


What kind of music do you like?

I can't narrowly define my music taste. I like a variety of genres, including glam, pop, classical, folk, rock, etc.


What are your favorite movies?

Big fan of nature documentaries


What is the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done?

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."


What job do you have?

I currently teach English as a second language in Hungary.


Do you have a pet?

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


What languages do you speak?

English and German


What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?

Writer or Professor


Seanchan or Shara?

Seanchan


Verin or Adeleas?

Verin


Board games or computer games?

Board games


Coke or Pepsi?

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.
