−	My time as Citizen was amazing, I met several friends that I know will be a part of my life for the duration. Being a novice was fun as well, though I didn't prank as much as some I know. Being Accepted, I would have to say, was my favorite. It was amazing to meet all the women of the ajahs I guested on a more personal playing field, and get to see them in their element. I will also always remember the moment I determined I was going to aspire blue...it was surreal, and a bit of a "Wait...how did I not know all along?" moment.	+	*[[Siera al'Cere]]

Tower Sworn Interview

January 3, 2021

Who is your favorite protagonist? Antagonist?

My favorite protagonist is Nynaeve. I like that being the strongest wasn't just handed to her. She had to work past her block. Favorite antagonist is, hmm, Lanfear. She's nuts.

How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series?

About 15 years now.

How did you first get into the series?

AR points in High School.

Favorite book and scene?

I love when the girls rescue Egwene from Falme. When she punches Seta in the face. And probably Eye of the World.

If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain?

I'm really not sure, but probably just a normal person. If I could chose of course I would want to be an Aes Sedai though.

If you have attended any Real Life Functions (Official or Unofficial), do you recommend that people come to any future functions? Why or why not?

I've been to 2 Anni's. I honestly have no complaints. The events really have grown with the community, so naturally the one I went to in 09 was different than the one in 15. I had a good time at both though!

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

Filmed myself spraying my cousin with pepper spray in college.

A short bio about yourself

Oh no. I'm bad at talking about myself unguided. I'm a nerd. Books, TV shows, movies, anime, games, etc...I do whatever makes me happy.
