@kate-flournoy I was thinking about pattern, but feel does make more sense.

So if Emma is a mix, what are here eyes?

@emma-flournoy Uum… not quite 😛

My dad is an INTJ
Conrad is an INFP
Kina is an ESTP
I don’t know about Jakin.
I don’t know about Diara either, but it’s quite likely she’s an ENFP
Then, of course, Deron is an ENFP

@Daeus feel, definitely. All irises are round, I’m pretty sure. 😛

@kate-flournoy Is that the actual shape of the iris (or whatever it’s called) or is that the “feel” of the eye?

@Daeus that. is. too. cute.

Also (because why use words when I can have a handy chart that explains it better than I do) here’s something fun about the eye thing:

There is greater variance within segments once you learn what you’re looking for, but this is the basics.

@kate-flournoy You know, you’re right about that eye thing. I never noticed it before, but between the known Js and Ps in my family and those few I know the types for outside my family, I think that seems to fit. Might not remember one or two’s eyes perfectly, but it seems true. It’s a simple trick too, which I like.

My little brother’s eyes are…[Read more]

@Daeus ENFP. That description is ENFP to the core. *grins* And—‘The perfect knack for complimenting women’— that is absolutely hilarious.

One way to tell the difference (weird, but you already know I am) is to look at the eyes. ENFPs have very bright, living, curious, sparkling eyes. ENFJs are softer; more thoughtful and subdued. The…[Read more]

Greetings, Mellon!
I love your topic title. 😉
I also entered the Call to Pens— congratulations on second place. 😀
And believe it or not, you are the first elf. I’m one of the dragons @Daeus warned about, but I’m really not that scary. Too small. 😉 Welcome to the Realm of the KeePers, @Ethryndal.

@Daeus ewwww, yes. The priests of the Ra’zac, I forgot about those. I don’t think there are any scenes as nasty as that one, though there are a few (in Brisingr, if my memory serves me?) where the priests play a pretty major part. Nothing terribly gross like that first scene; just… those guys are nasty wherever they turn up.

Hey, you’re are first elf on here so far, @Ethryndal. Watch out for the dragons.

I was about to say that I entered the same contest, but then I realized I actually didn’t 😛 Double congratulations because you didn’t procrastinate like I did.

He was raised a cult? I guess that makes sense.

It didn’t disturb me in book one, but I just read the chapter about the blood oath celebration and that was pretty occult. Very disturbing. Anybody know if there are any other scenes like that later on? I’d want to skip something like that again.

@kate-flournoy That’s a helpful clarification. I’m not sure about my brother though. Maybe it’s not as clear since he’s younger. I think he’s fairly organized. I noticed it’s easy to get him to wear matching clothes if that counts. He seems to try to get his own way but is also very ready to follow. I don’t think of him as stubborn. He’s the best…[Read more]

@Aratrea if it isn’t too late, do all three of you know your MBTI type, and if so, what is it?

The Snalgli? *shudders* Ugh. I’d tried to forget those, @Sierra-R. Thanks a lot. 😛

Great points about Paolini’s weak worldview. I agree. Which is really sad, because a strong theme could really have made that series several LAYERS of more awesomeness. I basically had to look to the supporting characters for applicable life-lessons, and even…[Read more]

@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise congratulations! Welcome to the crazy world of psychological genius! 😀
@Dragon-Snapper I agree with @Emma-Flournoy. One hundred percent. 😉 Also, one of the reasons I love fantasy as a writer is because it takes us so completely out of our reality that the truth of reality can be portrayed through it and be as fresh and…[Read more]

Giant carnivorous snails?

Ok, new favorite characters even though I haven’t met them yet. The idea just tickles me.

As a reader, I generally prefer historical fiction, but I still really like fantasy.

As a writer, though I find that I like almost all genres, what I really love about fantasy and that is the one reason I will probably write more of it than some other genres is that I don’t have to stick to facts. The only thing that is important in fantasy is a…[Read more]
