E.g. What WH40K race are you and why?

No test, just give whatever answer you feel best represents yourself.
So without further ado:

What WH40K race are you and why?

What Star Trek race are you and why?

What Star Wars faction are you and why?

What LotR race or culture are you and why?

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be and why?

If you were a mythical beast which one, I'm getting tired of writing that.

Animal?

Insect?

Bird?

Fish?

Err... ooh, Manga?

Philosophical text?

Religious text?

And make up your own as we go.

What WH40K race are you and why?
I've no idea, never played it. .o.

What Star Trek race are you and why?
vulcan! ...or that one spirit creature that went into Troi and became her child. The idea of being a disembodied light-being floating across the universe exploring and taking different shapes as I go, is perfect.

What Star Wars faction are you and why?
Never seen.

What LotR race or culture are you and why?
Elf of Lothlorien, in the trees of Galadriel. Their culture of knowledge/wisdom and peace is something I find so elegant and sensible and natural to me; as if I'd fit right in without ever trying.

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be and why?
Kaname Madoka(?), or maybe Lain, or Rei Ayanami -- a self-made god/goddess/deity. Because it is more fantabulous to me, to be able to one day, millions of years in the future, tell the tale to some other mortal of how i had my origins in an ancient far away race called 'human'.

If you were a mythical beast which one, I'm getting tired of writing that.
The Spirit of the Forest

Animal?
Human

Insect?
No.. I dislike bugs and wouldn't wanna be one. >.<

Bird?
Hummingbird, or a golden snitch. ^_^

Fish?
Immortal Jellyfish

Err... ooh, Manga [character]?
The Count of Monte Cristo

Philosophical text?
Desiderata, or Blaise Pascal's 'Pensees' possibly.

Religious text?
Ecclesiastes

what about you, cognisant?

Not into Warhammer.

No LOTR for me thanks.

Animal: African Wild Dog

Fish: Thresher shark

What Star Wars faction are you and why?
Probably a former Sith acolyte-turned interstellar wanderer

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be and why?
I got Anubis on that quiz in another thread. Seems to fit. Maybe a more corrupted version though, like an Anubis tattoo on some hipster.

Fish?
A yellow prawn goby because it wears a perpetual frown and spends its time peeking out of its hole in the ground.

Philosophical text?
The Cliffnotes version of Nick Land's Thirst for Annihilation.

Religious text?

Some cult schema scrawled out on a dirty napkin.

What LotR race or culture are you and why?
Elven because I generally like the Elven and would probably like living with them more than any of the other races.

If you were a mythical beast which one, I'm getting tired of writing that.
A faerie :D because they are fun, hard to see and hidden, energetic, and mischievous. :D

Animal?
Raven because they are curious and ingenious.

Insect?
Bumble bee because they reflect the romantic and harmonic qualities of nature.

Gun?
sniper rifle because I'd be discrete about getting rid of people. :)

C&C Zero Hour: General?
Super Weapons General because it is OP and awesome to get an awesome turtling defense and be able to nuke people.

Wow Race?
Undead because I like their home towns and their sense of humor.

Wow Class?
Warlock because it's fun to kill people with dots and fear them without getting hit much. They also bring a lot of utility to PVE.

Star Trek: A "relatively benign" member of the Q Continuum... although "benign" might be a matter of opinion.

Star Wars: Twi'lek wandering Jedi.

LOTR: Noldor (deep elf)

Animal: Bear

Bird: Raven

Mystical Animal: Ouroboros

Mythical Deity: Death of the Endless

Philosophical text: Pascal's 'Pensees' or Allan Wheelis' "How People Change" (latter is more a psychology text)

Religious text: From the Bible, it would be a mix of Ecclesiastes, Romans, and John. I need to read more texts from other cultures, though.

WH40K race?
Eldar. They represent the balance between knowledge and martial prowess, dedication to their chosen craft - everything is an art form, a path to greater things.

LotR race?
Wood elf, in Lothlorien.

Animal? Bear.

Bird? Eagle.

Mythical beast? Fenrir.

I am madness, hiding in human form. One's view may be correct one day. Or is it ? Can one be sure? It will change the next day. What is this view? Is there one? I just don't know.

The more I feel I understand, the more I realize I will never understand.

What WH40K race are you and why? lolwut?

What Star Trek race are you and why? Never watched it. Klingon? I mean, it sounds cool...

What Star Wars faction are you and why? Never watched it either. Whatever Yoda was, but taller.

What LotR race or culture are you and why? Again, never watched it.

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be and why? Some combination of Eris, Thoth, or maybe Eueucoyotl. All imply an understanding of the mechanisms of chaos and an ability to manipulate them, or enlighten others to chaos.

If you were a mythical beast which one, I'm getting tired of writing that. Meh.

Animal? Insect? Bird? Fish? None, though I have a thing for snakes of all sorts and birds, especially raptors, corvids, and well... fuck. All of them. They embody a range of mechanisms re: thermal regulation, flight, predator/prey dynamics, communication, intelligence, flocks, reproduction, genetic expression. Mammals are seriously over-rated.

Err... ooh, Manga? Huh?

Philosophical text? Religious text? Principia Discordia? ;)

What WH40K race are you and why? Wait..what? 40K like 40 km race? I have a feeling that this is some sort of jargon that I don't understand.

What Star Trek race are you and why? Half-vulcan, half-human. I'm analytical, but I'm also kind and cheerful.

What Star Wars faction are you and why? Rebel alliance. I'm skeptical of authority.

What LotR race or culture are you and why? Teleri elf. I've always loved the elvish races, language, culture, etc. And I love the idea of the focus on sailing and ocean culture. They sound so beautiful :)

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be and why? Hm. A deity? I guess Urania the Greek muse. Her domains were astronomy and universal love, which is appropriate for me, I think :) "Urania dresses in a cloak embroidered with stars and keeps her eyes and attention focused on the Heavens." -- Sounds pretty good to me!

If you were a mythical beast which one, I'm getting tired of writing that. Hm. Maybe a nymph? I would love to frolic and learn and enjoy nature for the rest of my life.

Animal? Oh man, I'm just going to start throwing out guesses. For this one, I'll say Kodiak bear.

Insect? Praying mantis

Bird? Peregrine falcon

Fish? Parrot fish

Err... ooh, Manga? Hm. Oh hell. Sailor Moon, I guess. I loved manga for years, but I can't consciously say that I am similar to Full Metal Alchemist or something.

Philosophical text? Not sure. Honestly, I haven't read to terribly much philosophy. Certainly not enough to have a favorite text.

Religious text? Hm. Tough one. The Bible, certainly, but which book...I'll say Colossians, off the top of my head.

Hi all, seems like a good first post.

What WH40K race are you and why? I'm not familiar, so I'll pass on this one.

What Star Trek race are you and why? Whatever Data was. Android possibly? Positronic brain and a faulty emotion chip.

What Star Wars faction are you and why? Jawa. I like tinkering with tech and my vehicle is always a mess.

What LotR race or culture are you and why? Wizard. For good or for ill, they are problem solvers.

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be and why? Cthulhu. He's so metal. \m/

If you were a mythical beast which one, I'm getting tired of writing that. Bigfoot. I like wandering forests.

Animal? Human. I really dig having opposable thumbs.

Insect? Something I would never want to be.

Bird? Something from the genus Corvus(crows, ravens, bluejays). They are smart and are tool users.

Fish? Shark. I like all kinds of seafood.

Err... ooh, Manga? I haven't read enough manga to make an assessment.

Philosophical text?
Religious text?

Reminds me of an old song:
"Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box,
Religion is the smile on a dog"

What LotR race or culture are you and why? Tom Bombadil - The perfect selfish being. Plus he's a merry fellow! Bright Blue his jacket is, and his boots are yellow! (How awesome is that!?)

What Star Trek race are you? Organian: They are basically a completely chilled out version of the Q continuum.

If you were a mythical deity which one would you be? The Nothing

Mythical Beast Totoro
