My Tract
I am quiet, irreverent, intuitive, romanticist, demented, and demiurgic.
I'm probably the most serious and the least solemn person in the room. I am given to multiple entendre and wry humor. I'm thoroughly introverted and tend to listen more than talk, but I've acclimated to standing up and giving a performance.
I am shockingly open-minded and flexible, as long as we're both sharing the same game. I insist on the company of equals but enjoy taking charge if the need arises.
Small children and people comfortable with themselves seem to like me. People who are laboring to behave either like adults or like adolescents seem not to like me.
If I weren't an academic, I imagine I'd walk the earth like Caine in Kung Fu before settling down to a modest career in voice acting.
