Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. My name is Lucy Pevensie, and I've grown up twice. As a young girl, hiding in the countryside from the terror of the Blitz, I looked inside a wardrobe and found a magical land. My brothers and sister and I helped save this land, and grew to become wise rulers -- until we were suddenly returned to England, children again, not five minutes after we had left. Who shared our story with the world?
2. My name is Schmendrick, and I've always wanted to be a magician, but I was never good enough. My cheap tricks were enough to get me a job with Mommy Fortuna's carnival, but there was always something dissatisfying about it. So when I saw the beautiful, innocent unicorn my boss was keeping captive, I had to help her and join her on her quest to save her kin. Who wrote about our adventures and made us famous?
3. My name is Morgaine; some call me Morgan le Fay. I am the sister of King Arthur, and his enemy. Many have written about me, my sorcery, and my role in the fall of Camelot, but only one author has told the story through my eyes. Which of these writers wrote sympathetically of my struggle against my brother, casting it as a fight to preserve the ancient beliefs of Avalon against encroaching Christianity?
4. When they sing of my deeds they call me Sparrowhawk, but my true name is Ged. I am one of the most powerful wizards my homeland of Gont has ever produced, but my youthful arrogance led me to unleash a great evil on the world. I am a dragonlord and a conqueror of shadows, but I will never again try to call back the dead. Who brought the tales of my deeds to your world?
5. My name is Kahlan Amnell, and I am the Mother Confessor. When I touch someone with my magic, he or she becomes wholly devoted to me -- so I am the last resort for innocent people condemned to death, since they cannot lie to me in their confessions. But when evil came out of the east and my fellow Confessors were murdered, I fled and found the one man -- Richard Cypher -- who could save us all. Who wrote of my adventures with Richard?
6. I am Death -- or at least, its anthropomorphic representation on one particular world. I ride a pale horse whose name is Binky; I speak in all capital letters; and my granddaughter Susan (it's a long story) sometimes fills in for me when I'm on vacation. Which of these people chronicles my surprisingly endearing self?
7. I am the seventh son of a seventh son, and that gives me a knack for just about everything. My father is a frontier miller, but I am a maker -- they call me Alvin Maker. I try to use my knacks to help build a better world: I heal the sick, I step in for mercy's sake, and I work for peace. Yet I am opposed in everything by my own younger brother, Calvin. In whose books can you read my tales?
8. My name is Hermione Granger. My parents are dentists, but I'm a witch. I don't like to brag, but I'm the best in my year! The wizarding world is more dangerous than I expected, though, and I've spent a lot of valuable study time fighting evil with my two best friends. Which writer shared our exploits with the non-magic world?
9. My name is Dorothy Gale, and I come from a gray, gray farm in the state of Kansas. Everything changed for me when I was suddenly swept away to a magical kingdom, a land of wonder and danger and miraculous friends. What writer somehow found the words to describe my indescribable adventures?
10. I was born Sméagol, and I had a happy, peaceful life. Then my cousin found my precious and I had to kill him to make him give it to me. I gave up everything to protect my precious, even my name, even my people and my habits of speech. We had to be tricksy -- the nasty hobbitses called us Gollum and stole it from us! Who wrote about the precious, but took the side of the hobbitses?
