Somewhat, yes. I am very independent, prefer to choose my own paths and causes, and expect everyone else to help enact my great ideas. (I kid...but only a little.)

Do you plot and manipulate? Do you travel a lot?

I plan and problem-solve, anyway. I travel as much as I possibly can.

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
