Character: Lady Irurazaretovia, Time Lady of Gallifrey
Affiliation: Time Lord
Movie/Show: Doctor Who

BASICS

1.    What is your full name? Do you have a nickname?
My full name is Lady Irurazaretovia, Time Lady of Gallifrey, second set of regenerative cycles. However, most humans can't pronounce/remember all that, and so they just call me Iru. On occasion, I have been known by the human names of Iru Sarutobi and Emma Holmes.
2.    How old are you? When is your birthday?
My age certainly varies in a range which would make this meme irrelevant within a week on this end of existence. I'm hoping to live to a decent few thousand years, maybe even ten thousand if my luck is good.
As to the day I was loomed, I can't really give an Earth equivalent. Being from Gallifrey, I suppose I could most easily say my life began Nowhen.
3.    Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic?
I was born on the planet of Gallifrey. Of course, considering how my home planet was destroyed, I lived as a wanderer for the majority of my first set of regenerations, my residence being my TARDIS. However, after I contained my mind in a book at the time of my death, I somehow ended up in a parallel world where Gallifrey wasn't destroyed, and I was loomed into a new body. So now I live on Gallifrey, but I still occasionally leave the planet for good reasons.
4.    Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.)
Oddly, I lost my memories at age 24, and that is one of the few pieces of information I have yet to recover. I just know they were Time Lords.
5.    Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?
Again, lost information. Please refrain from asking.
6.    What is your occupation?
Time Lord, parent, erratic senator
7.    How tall are you? How much do you weigh?
Currently, I am 5'7". No, I'm not telling you my weight. I may not be human, but I still am a bit touchy about that.
8.    What color is your hair? What color are your eyes?
Currently, I have long, blonde, curly hair and eyes the color of the rarest blue Earth sapphires.
9.    What is your race?
I am a Gallifreyan, specifically a Time Lord.
10.    To which social class do you belong?
I'm a Time Lord… and I'll reluctantly admit I can be classified as a politician.
11.    Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others?
I certainly don't have any reason to dislike my appearance, and I know a certain blue-eyed immortal flirt that certainly finds me attractive. But that isn't saying much, considering how this is…
12.    What is your style of dress?
It depends on whether I need to blend in with the people around me or not. I prefer to wear long robes- usual Gallifreyan fashion sense, really.
13.    Do you have any scars? Tattoos? Birthmarks? Other unique physical features?
No. Anything I might have had before went away with my last regeneration.



I have a scraped knee.
14.    Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?
I am fatally allergic to aspirin and most other painkillers of human manufacture.
15.    Are you right- or left-handed?
This body seems to have left-handed tendencies…
16.    What does your voice sound like?
High-pitched and flighty in this incarnation, and translated into English I sound like I come from Britain… on Earth, I mean.
17.    What kind of vocabulary do you use?
I doubt there's quite an equivalent here between our languages. Verbose, if anything.
18.    List three quirks or other defining characteristics.
I talk to myself.
My previous incarnation yelled "Alons-y!" a lot whenever she was about to take off in the TARDIS or do something particularly spontaneous.
I recite any concerns or thoughts I have into the Untempered Schism.

19.    How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes?
As often as I need to; if I want to.
20.    What kind of facial expression do you commonly wear (dour glare, wry smile, etc)?

Unsettling grin
21.    Do you use body language? How?
Yes. I wave my arms around frantically and make everyone think I'm insane.

22.    Do you have a commonly used saying?
Not yet.
CHILDHOOD

23.    What is your earliest memory?
The first minute of my life…
24.    How much schooling have you had? Did you enjoy it?
Sixteen years at the Academy, seven hundred years studying abroad, then returning to an alternate Gallifrey and having another five hundred and fifty years of school.
25.    Where did you learn most of your knowledge and skill?
From my adopted father, who is commonly called the Doctor.
26.    How would you describe your childhood in general?
Amusing, definitely. I had a few good friends, although the majority of the children my age avoided me due to my abnormalities of character and ability. My best friend's name was Epsilon, and I had a bit of a crush on him. I entered the Academy at age 8.
27.    As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be a philosopher.
28.    When and with whom was your first kiss?
I often claim that my first kiss was with Jack Harkness, but it wasn't. It was with Epsilon.
29.    Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity?
This body is. My last wasn't… well, I was married, so is it too surprising?
30.    Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? Does that affect you?
Again, I don't know who my genetic parents are. I'm a Time Lord, however, so that in itself gives me a good amount of reputation and authority. I suppose, with the Doctor being my adopted father, I have a lot to live up to.
INFLUENCES

31.    What do you consider the most important event of your life so far?
Possibly this one attack on Gallifrey by the Daleks, when I was sent away from the planet. This put the rest of my life in motion.

32.    What do you consider your greatest achievement?
When I finally understood the Doctor's secrets. Interpret that however you want.
33.    What is your greatest regret?
When I… when I threw away my one chance to live a normal life.

34.    What is the most embarrassing or shameful thing ever to happen to you?
I ended up bring a "freak" to the planet, and it got away.
35.    Do you have any secrets? If so, what are they?
I have plenty. More than you could count. And I'm not giving them to you.
36.    What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
For the sake of the universe, I threw an immortal into a black hole, so that the black hole would contain the energy and the immortal would end up becoming the core of the Eye of Harmony. It was for the sake of everything, but… it still guilts me.
37.    When was the time you were the most frightened?
Right before my first regeneration.
38.    Have you ever traveled outside of your country? If so, to where?
I've traveled the universe.
BELIEFS

39.    What is your alignment?
Arbitrary.
40.    Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic?
Optipessimistic
41.    Do you believe in a god? If so, which one and why?
I don't feel like explaining this.
42.    Do you believe in an afterlife?
Obviously.
43.    What is your greatest fear?
Jack finding out the truth about what I did to him.
44.    What makes you angry? Sad? Happy? Why?
Meddling irresponsibly with time and mistreatment and manipulation of the weak make me angry.
Running into people I've watched die makes me sad.
The universe in all its wonder makes me happy.

45.    Do you think people are basically good or basically evil?
I believe people are like a blank slate.
46.    What are your views on politics?
That politicians like myself are often corrupt and pointless. Charging into the senate in a state of total disorder makes things fun, so I will approve of that.
47.    What are your views on gambling, lying, theft, and killing?
Gambling is addictive, but has its benefits. Lying is tragic but sometimes needed to restore the peace. Theft… if it's an emergency and you need something that there's no time to pay for, with absolutely no other option and the results if you don't will be cataclysmic… I don't like to kill.
48.    How far will you go to defend your beliefs?
To the ends of the universe, and beyond if needed.
49.    How much do you value money?
Where do you get money?
50.    In your opinion, what is the most evil thing any human being could do?
Destroy the balance of the universe to benefit themselves.
51.    Do you believe in self-sacrifice for the greater good?
I've lived this belief through both of my life cycles. Definitely, if my life is worth anything.
52.    Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love?
I think I just might.
53.    Are you superstitious?
No.
54.    How much do you respect the beliefs and opinions of others?
Plenty. Every idea comes from somewhere, and knocking people's beliefs, unless necessary, is just asking for trouble.
55.    How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings?
Not at all honest.
56.    Do you have any biases or prejudices?
Yes. I don't like immortals (normally). I like humans, but they can be really stupid sometimes.
DEALING WITH OTHERS

57.    Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
The Doctor- he brought me up to be the person I am.
58.    Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why?
I respect the Doctor because of all he's done and sacrificed. I despise Davros for creating the race that destroyed my people.
59.    Do you have a significant other? Who? Why?
Yes. In this world, he currently calls himself Thomas, although elsewhere he's gone by many names, such as Captain Jack Harkness.
60.    Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend?
I have a decent few. At the Academy in this world, some used names like , who I teasingly call DBZ. She's actually a political and intellectual rival of mine. Back in my world, my two best friends were Tyra and Epsilon.
61.    How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex?
I feel a little anxious around other Time Lords, but I think I do all right. I feel that other women sometimes worry too much about appearances.
62.    How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex?
I do quite well with aliens. As for men, I feel they can be a little impulsive.
63.    Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
Yes. I turned human, I fell in love, I got married, and it went on from there.
64.    What do you look for in a potential lover?
I really don't know. Longevity, sensitivity, intelligence, and genuine feelings, I suppose.
65.    How close are you to your family?
Oh, erm, my family…?
66.    Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?
I'm already married, and I have a daughter. Well, sort of. My daughter was an unauthorized genetic experiment I didn't know anything about until ten years ago, and my husband is married to many other people at various points in history due to his being immortal…
67.    Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
I argue. I love to argue. I argue for fun.
68.    Are you a listener or a talker?
It depends on what fit's the situation. Most of the time, I do both at the same time.
69.    How long does it usually take for you to trust others?
It depends. Usually it never fully happens.
70.    Do you hold grudges?
Yes. Are you familiar with the term "fury of a Time Lord"?
71.    Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
So long as it isn't Time Lord society…
72.    Do you like interacting with large groups of people?
No. I like to have peace and quiet.
73.    How well do you express yourself?
A little too easily, some think.
74.    How quickly do you judge others?
I take my time, but then I will judge with enormous scrutiny and pessimism.
75.    Do you care what others think of you?
Only if I regard their opinions.
76.    Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?
Yes. I have enemies in every society that has a force I have opposed. In war, if you take a side, the one you choose doesn't always win.
77.    What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession?
Pastime- Traveling
Color- Red
Food- Jelly Babies and bananas, peppermint, sugar, fried rice, rigatoni covered in melted fresh mozzarella and fresh, flavorful tomato sauce
Possession- my TARDIS
78.    What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?
I like classical music, painting, sketching, and anything else that can be considered art- and I have a broad scope of that consideration
79.    Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?
No. I'm not going to get myself messed up.
80.    How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
Fighting monsters.
81.    What is your most cherished fantasy?
I'm already living it.
82.    How long is your attention span?
Infinite, pretty much. Time Lord, after all.
83.    Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny?
Yes. I find politicians to be hilarious.
84.    Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what?
Yes. Immortals, abuse, suffering, manipulation…
85.    How do you deal with stress?
I meditate.
86.    How much athletic ability do you have? Artistic?
I run for my life on a daily basis. I'm skilled in painting and sketching.
87.    Do you like animals? Do you like children?
Yes. Yes.
88.    Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
Spontaneity is my greatest trait.
89.    Do you have a pet? If so, what is his/her name? Species? Fur color? Etc…
No.
SELFIMAGE

90.    What is your greatest strength as a person? Weakness?
My strength is in my intelligence and life experience. My weakness is my partial insensitivity.
91.    If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would live a normal life and die a normal death.
92.    Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
Grammar inverted, I am.
93.    Do you like yourself?
Could you phrase that question so my answer doesn't sound conceited?
94.    Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is interrupted?
Not really. I can never know exactly what will come up to meet me, which is funny, because I have the power of premonition.
95.    What goal do you most want to accomplish in the next six months? Your lifetime?
Six months: save the world
Lifetime: Save the world, learn everything

97.    If you could choose, how would you want to die?
At home, in the arms of the man I love.
98.    What is the one thing you would like to be remembered for after your death?
My knowledge. I don't want to be remembered as a universal hero- I don't deserve that.
99.    What three words would you use to best describe your personality?
Spontaneous, intelligent, distant
100.    What three words would others probably use to describe you?
Cryptic, insane, brilliant
101.    Why are you risking your life to adventure?

It's what I've always done. It's what I've dedicated my life to doing. I travel around the world, saving lives and being impossible. It's how it has always been, and always will be, until the day I die…
Yeah, okay.

A friend gave this to me, and I had nothing better to do than fill it out. Don't know why I'm putting it on here...

Why did I spend the entire thing reading it in a haughty, upper-class sounding voice?
