[color=indianred]1. Tell me something about your family - what do you think about them, your fondest memory of them and the worst one?[/color]
 Ah well, my family are all very hardworking. They are stubborn, I think our recent fights over my decision to join the British Navy is among the worse moments, however I must say that their support since then has been wonderful. As for fondest memory, I have too many. I think holidays were among my favorite times growing up.

[color=indianred]2. How do you spend your free time?  [/color]
 I enjoy exploring  you would be surprised what you can find anywhere. If I am on the ship and everything is all organized and well, I prefer to write and read in my spare time. Speaking of which I have some letters I ought to write.

[color=indianred]3. Which are your goals in life? [/color]
I would hope to continue serving in the British Navy, once my time is done, retire and start a private practice. Being a doctor will likely have allowed me to ascend my social class a bit I would hope! A comfortable life someday is what I hope to attain, but for now the adventure of serving in the Navy is calling my name.

[color=indianred]4. Why have you chosen your profession? And the Navy? [/color]
 Well, I have always enjoyed helping people. If I am also honest, I knew that by being a doctor, I could improve my lifestyle and social standing. As for the Navy, what better way to gain more experience and serve my country?

[color=indianred]5. What are you proudest of? [/color]
Ah geez... probably getting into the Navy. I think that so-far happens to be my greatest achievement  Not to mention being placed aboard the HMS Sovereign. It was rather an encouraging moment for me.

[color=indianred]6. What would you like to tell your king if he were sitting right here next to you? [/color]
I think I would be too excited to hear what he would have to say! Haha... Well maybe I would ask him how he was? I don't know! That sounds awfully foolish, forgive me.

[color=indianred]7. What is your favorite possession? Why? [/color]
Right now my sword that was given to me by my brother is among my treasured possessions. I hope to see him again, sometime soon maybe when we dock in Kingston again.

[color=indianred]8. What do you think of the war going on in the Caribbean ? [/color]
I'd prefer if there was no war. War is troublesome and very little comes from it. Perhaps we can soon make peace. I think that would be quite appreciable, would it not?

[color=indianred]9. What do you hope and what do you fear for the future? [/color]
I hope to eventually find love, I don't want to be alone! I think...the future will go well, however if I am very honest, I think I am afraid of my dreams never coming true. However I am sure God's plan will have good things in store. Correct?

[color=indianred]10. What do you think your greatest weakness is? [/color]
 Oh boy.... I have heard people say I am rather unrealistic. However I still think being hopeful for the best is a good thing. I suppose I might sometimes cross that line.

[color=indianred]11. Who is your best friend and why? [/color]
Not sure if I can name one. However I was rather close to a rather wonderful fellow named Thomas in medical school. He was always fun to be around.

[color=indianred]12. When have you been the happiest and why? [/color]
I have been happiest among my friends and family. I treasure both. I feel gatherings can be rather joyous events. There is something comforting about being near those you treasure.

[color=indianred]13. What is the thing that has frightened you the most? [/color]
Frightened? I think when I fell from a tree when I was a child. The feeling of falling is quite a terrifying one and honestly I have been a bit uneasy of heights since that incident.

[color=indianred]14. What is the fondest childhood memory you have? [/color]
Spending time with my family especially my siblings. We got into all sorts of mischief together. Once my brother and I took my sister's doll and hid it and led her on a treasure hunt of sorts. She was less than thrilled until the end. However I had fun.

[color=indianred]15. What do you like most about your professions and what you dislike the most? Why?[/color]
I love the opportunity to help others, health is important and a key factor in living. I have to say it is a rather bitter feeling when you lose a patient. It is something I feel I will never fully be able to accept.

[color=indianred]16. What does Alivi do that annoys you? [/color]
She procrastinates. She is incredibly lazy and by placing things on the last minute she stresses herself out. I told her to get started on a paper of hers a week ago but instead she will likely be up through the evening trying to complete it the night before!

[color=indianred]17. What characteristic of Alivi's do you wish you had? [/color]

[color=indianred]18. How do you imagine Alivi would fare in your life? [/color]

[color=teal]1. Give us some loose details about Nathaniel Hartman and how you came up with him. [/color]
 Well I noticed ya'll needed a doctor. I also didn't wanna do a pirate... So Nathaniel was kinda taken from a guy who is similar to me in some ways, and various stuff thrown in. Religious  naive a bit, idealistic and ambitious. A person on another RP suggested Nathaniel as a name and I felt Hartman was a lovely surname. So I chose it.

[color=teal]2. Did you find it hard to choose the playby for Nathaniel? [/color]

Not too much! I have to say I have always fancied Carl Phillip. And I had never thought to use him as a playby, seeing someone also used a royal I was like- OOOH great idea! And ta-daaaa

[color=teal]3. What do you like most about writing with partners? What's the greatest challenge? [/color]
 I love the different veiwpoints, styles and characters coming together and making it coherent. It is something I love and look forward to each time I RP. I think the challenge is balancing patience and not procrastinating yourself.
