I got 12 point between myself and Naieth.

Her being a woman plays a part in that, hah :) . Like Melindha mentions, her being go-hung about religion and myself being much less also was of big influence. And some 1-pointers.

Interesting questions.

Hmm... Grag is an Orc, I'm Human.

We're both male. (0 points)

alignment: Grag started out as CE, but has edged toward TN (alignment point changes haven't kept pace with his changes) due to the infulence of some of the people he hangs out with. I'm unsure of my alignment, but it is most likely CN, TN, or CG
(I gave 1 point)

I follow orders only if a) Doing so requires less energy/time than objecting, b) I see the point of the order (i.e. how it actually benifits both me and others) or c) the person giving the order has the power to force me to obeyance. Grag was originally like this, except b didn't apply, much. He's less concerned with anti-authority activity now, though. (I gave 1 point)

Grag is a cleric, I'm an athiest, more or less. Though I do value religious community and attend a Unitarian church for this reason.
I don't quite claim the impossibility of a god's existance, just that any god that does exist is impotent.
(I gave 3 points)

Grag is fairly outgoing, unless he feels justified in doing otherwise. I am at the very least polite to just about everyone in social settings, but do not really enjoy them too much. (I gave 2 points here.)

Hmmm... I am erratic in terms of follow through. I try to be honest, though. Grag tends to get in over his head and so is often rendered incapable of compleating a task. (I gave 1 point)

I don't donate much money, but do do the occational run of voulnteer work (mostly during election years, for my party) Grag gives when he sees a cause he believes in, or to individuals he comes across in need. Though, he also prefers to give aid by means of his laybor or material items as opposed to coin. (I gave 2 points)

Grag and I are fairly similiar in terms of boldness/meekness, but Grag is much more powerfull than I am. (I gave 1 point)

Grag has much more physical prowess than I do. However, he primarily relies on his mental abilities (int and wisdom, specifically.)
All his stats (save possibly charisma) are higher than are my equivallents. (I gave a 1)

Grag and I have similiar prefernces for how to react to trouble. Again, though, Grag has more ability to act on them. Therefore, Grag is able to beter aid his friends, when nessicary. (I gave a 1)


this totals to a 13. I then reflected on how much I felt I had to "bend" to play Grag, and reduced it to a 10.
The sweetest obession
to keep me awake
sleep loss entailed
by the love that we make.

Don't spawn me a lover
Don't spam me with choclates
just return my affections
or just set me free
