Which Discworld-Character are you? Tired of ads?

As I think that there are a lot of intelligent people at Apolyton who read Terry Pratchetts Discworld Novels, here´s the ultimate test for them:
http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?t...792268312509279


For me it´s:
DEATH
You scored 92 intelligence, 50 morality, and 50 physical strengenth!
YOU ARE SMART, SAVVY, AND KNOW WHAT DEDICATION TO THE JOB IS...MOST OF THE TIME. YOU ENJOY YOUR WORK, AND EVEN HELP OUT OTHER ANTHROPOMORPHIC PERSONIFICATIONS FROM TIME TO TIME. RECENTLY, YOU'VE LEARNED WHEN TO BEND THE RULES, MUCH TO THE DEATH OF RATS'S CHAGRIN.


My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 86% on intelligence

You scored higher than 28% on morality

You scored higher than 12% on strength

As Archchancellor of the Unseen University, you are the most sensiblely pig-headed wizard on campus. And what is perhaps more remarkable than being able to summon fireballs whenever you want them, you're even usually right. You have Rincewind's luck without any of his pathetic everyman-ness. After all, you *are* Archchancellor.

You are an intriguing character. Good hearted, incredibly strong, and a headful of information that makes that Jeopardy guy look like a bar trivia hack. No one knows what to make of a six-foot tall dwarf who dates a werewolf, and may be the true heir to the throne of Ankh-Morpork. But you can make everyone get along, and are a born leader.

Cool, I'm Miss Susan. I was wondering how'd I come out. I answered truthfully, but my answers were all over the map.

JohnT, JohnT, JohnT, you uncircumscribed Philastine you've haven't yet discovered Terry Prachett's "Discworld" novels?

They're fantasy stories, as funny as heck, with often great insight woven in. Something like Hitchikers' Guide to the Galaxy only better, and far, far beyond anything in Harry Potter.

Oook ooka ook. The Librarian is both orangautan and wizard; no one knows better than he that books really *are* magical. This is why he has a good supply of heavy chains, padlocks, and other such restraining devices to keep the unwary safe from the more potent tomes. A good chap to have in your corner....unless you are silly enough to call him a monkey.

Being a werewolf can be very useful when you're on the City Watch. You are street smart, athletic, and very practical. A knock-out sense of smell and super-strength make you a feared copper. You make a great team with your partner (and boyfriend) Captian Carrot in that you lend your more realistic view of the world to situations without killing his idealism.

His recent complete change of style notwithstanding, I think Going Postal may be a return to form. He seems to be bringing back the ripping into fantasy novels underneath the rather obvious satire.

JohnT, Discworld started as a satire of all the fantasy series that sprung up like weeds after Tolkien became popular. Then it grew a life of its own, but it is still a satirical look at fantasy.

If you only read one Pratchett book, try the non-Discworld The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch.

Nobody has commented on the typo yet Also, I'm not sure how answering a short, multiple choice questionaire gauges physical strength at all. Like, just because I don't make a career of busting heads doesn't mean I can't do it...
