Loira Al'Ramoidra, Senior Member Interview, May 6 2009 (updated November 16 2010)

What is your Tower name?

Loira Al'Ramoidra

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

In May, 2008.

Why did you choose White?

It's much about this often mentioned gut feeling, you really do know when you have found your home. The Whites...nothing beats their humor and the closeness we have. You have their full support no matter what happens. I like what the White Ajah stands for at TV.Net, the stereotypical logic that while it may not make sense to anyone else, it makes sense to yourself.

Are you like the Whites in the Books?

Nah, at least not in the earlier books. I have difficulties staying calm and logical when things turned heated. Maybe a TGS White though.

Are you like a rock and have a serene face all the time?

Definitely not. In fact I've had people telling me I'm way too giggly to be Aes Sedai at all, lol.

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

Citizen: not too exciting. I was still so shy back then, I usually didn't say a word to anyone. But when I managed to get myself some sponsors and joined the crazy Tower, I lightened up and the fun started. I really enjoyed being both Novice & Accepted. I was, well still am, very active and try to keep up with most places.

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

Since January 2007.

What things do you do for TV.net?

Um..I contribute in my own way? I try to spread the joy I feel each time I sneak around on the boards...I am currently a the White Heart and Tower Historian...and I've been writing stuff for the Library in the past. I've been a Moderator for various forums, I've been a Sitter in the Hall, and I'm also spreading my positive energy *cough* on events, both official and local!

How did you get to read the Series?

My English teacher in 6th grade told me to go pick some thicker books than those I read at the time. WoT was the thickest I could find.

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

I am Bonded to my most precious friend, Aldazar Tiarana <3

Who is your mentee, if you have one?

Enya Tawarwaith, who is Sedai herself by now, Asine Dormandi, and Prewan Beldaim.

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

Nynaeve, Lan & Moiraine are all my favs. Each so strong, funny and...special. I have no favourite nation...but I guess I would have liked the Borderlands.

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?)

Yeah, I've been to four official events so far and several local ones. I loved it very much and will definitely make it a tradition. It was fantastic seeing so many of my friends from the boards and realize that they're actually my friends in real life as well ;p Everyone who's in for a fun weekend should try out a TV.Net event.

What kind of music do you like?

Classic rock & Indie

What are your favorite movies?

Gone With The Wind, Billy Elliot, The Full Monty, Smiles of a Summer Night...just to mention a few. I love movies

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

That shall be left unsaid.

What job do you have?

Um, I'm a student. But I work summertime at a nursing home.

Do you have a pet?

No. Used to have guinea pigs, I miss them. Lovely fluffy furballs.

What languages do you speak?

Swedish, English, some French. Then I understand Norwegian and some Danish. Taking a German class this spring, too.

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

I wanted to be a cook!

Randland or our world?

Our world. I would not know how to deal with having real Aes Sedai powers.

Alviarin or Seaine?

Seaine, she kicks ass.

Books or movies?

Books. No matter how much of a movie dork I am, I prefer visualising the worlds and characters myself.

Candles or lamps?

Lamps. Too afraid of fire to be completely comfy with candles.

A short bio about yourself.

21 years old. Student, working on a bachelor in English and one in Tourism. Travel a lot, read a lot, watch a lot of movies, listen to music 24/7... simply said, I enjoy life ;) I share a flat with my best friend, I'm a very random person, and I love food and everything England.
