Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which character is described as, "Scrawny, like most wizards, and clad in a dark red robe on which a few mystic sigils were embroidered in tarnished sequins... He avoided work as a rule, but had a quickness of wit that put his acquaintances in mind of a bright rodent"?
2. "There was no mistaking that shape... The wide chest, the neck like a tree trunk, the surprisingly small head under its wild thatch of black hair looking like a tomato on a coffin." Whose description is this?
3. "...where his eye sockets should have been, there were nothing but two areas of blank skin. His eyes, of which he had an impressively large number, led a semi-independent life of their own. Several were currently hovering above the table."
Which of the Discworld's gods is this?
4. Which character, who speaks in ALL CAPS, encounters the protagonist multiple times? "No-one else went around with empty eye sockets and, of course, the scythe over one shoulder was another clue."
5. "The girl was green - flesh green. [He] could be absolutely certain about that, because all she was wearing was a medallion around her neck. Her long hair had a faintly mossy look about it. Her eyes had no pupils and were a luminous green." Which creature of the forest is this?
6. Which of the Wyrmbidders (dragonlords) is first described as "almost naked, except for a couple of mere scraps of the lightest chain mail and riding boots of iridescent dragonhide. In one boot was thrust a riding crop, unusual in that it was as long as a spear and tipped with tiny steel barbs"?
7. Who, after being shunted to an alternate universe while unconscious, was suddenly dressed in "strange clothes. His britches now ended just above his knees. Above that he wore some sort of vest of brightly striped material. On his head was a ridiculous little straw hat. With a feather in it."?
8. Which talented but unfortunate character is seen "naked, at least, were it not for a toolbelt, a wrist abacus and a deep tan..."?
9. He is "a rather squat but not particularly ugly old man who would quite easily have passed for normal on any city street... [but] composed of water and very little else." Who is this troll, whose job is to monitor a section of the Circumfence?
10. Which Wizard of the 5th Rank is described as "a most unusually tinted young woman. Her skin was black. Not the dark brown of Urabewe, or the polished blue-black of monsoon-haunted Klatch, but the deep black of midnight at the bottom of a cave. Her hair and eyebrows were the colour of moonlight."
