Idealism?

Marcus Cole
"You are Marcus Cole. An honest and chivalrous adventurer that pursues just causes, you would sacrifice much to help others."

I am a Ranger. We walk in the dark places no others will enter. We stand on the bridge and no-one may pass. We live for the One, we die for the One.

Which sci-fi character are you, stolen from Merten.

Frankly, I always found Marcus rather dumb, and a hopeless romantic - but hey, that's what you get when you answer questions like "would you kill your best friend to gain immortality?" It's really bloody hard to answer anything sensible to a stupid question like that; you really never know until you actually are in that situation, and before that all thoughts and discussion is hypothetical based on an idealized self-image. It does perhaps some good to really think about hypothetical situations, so that you are not completely out of touch with yourself if something unlikely hits you - but still. You ain't what you believe you are.

Well, on the other hand, I guess Marcus is not really such a bad idealized self-image to have :-).

Try being Samwise Gamgee - "A brave and loyal associate full of optimism, you remain true to your friends and their efforts, to whatever end."

I guess I should take that as a complement, but

  • Sam is not a sci-fi character, by any strecth of imagination
  • he's always been my least favourite character in LOTR
  • I'm a sidekick?!?

Oh well.

Well, you probably just need to find your inner gardener :-).
