    There is SOME chance. Keep in mind, when I say "some", I mean it's in the same realm of possibility of me coding up an android app -- it becomes far more likely the more I get told I need to add some experience in it to my portfolio. The more I can break a task down into granular bits and pieces, the better.

    (It may or may not help that J.P. (BugPudding) has a heap more experience at it than I do... helps that he knows what he's talking about and could teach me, doesn't help that he's probably a lot better at it than I'd be.)

    I'm pretty sure that, similar to drinking your own urine to survive, the added energy your body requires to continue past that point (assuming no improvement in the foreseeable future) makes it not worth it unless you're working to a literal deadline here.

    Also, what about intermediary solutions like excising portions of the muscle / fatty tissue vs. just hacking indiscriminately?

    I assume I'm waiting for a rescue squad in this scenario -- i.e. that my legs will not be necessary from this point in otherwise -- but I would suspect that I may as well preserve the skeletal structure as long as I can in the hopes that the muscles can be replaced when I'm rescued (through organ donation or regrowth), vs. skeletal structure (which can't).

    If I'm not holding out hope for eventual rescue at this point, I can't imagine the added pain of amputation in exchange for a little more time alive is going to be worth it.

    It's limited by the power provided by the starter Djinn in the first place, unless (as hinted last question), you manage to 'upgrade' the artifact.

    A Reaper's Artifact is as powerful as it needs to be -- after that initial charge, it powers itself indefinitely.

    However much damage it did last time is enough for it to inflict that damage again, making the Artifact a perpetual motion (er, pain?) machine, with one notable exception: you can't make an Artifact LESS powerful...

    No. They can't perform magic, either. :-p

    A lot of it comes down to which ones I can answer right then (some of them are weird and take a little time to think up a sensible answer), some are duplicates (so I'll answer whichever one looks like the better version, and delete the other), which are currently relevant to the action in the story, and basically whether or not I feel like it right then.

    I try to space out answers, though.

    Nope.

    Zombies are the stable, "fail-safe" form for anyone who Shatters but doesn't manage to become a Djinn before they die. It's not reversible.

    Beardedness is an odd trait to select for, and no one "fuzzy" race is 100% bearded or 100% beard-free.

    And yes, we have a few bearded ladies among our races as well -- one of those races, ironically enough, is the Vidian. (It's usually limited to some impressive sideburns, though).

    A few people have claimed that I do. Or at least I did when I was much younger. I sang at events and for fun a lot until 1997, when my gran passed away my drive to sing seemed to fade as well. I do still sing occasionally, I have been known to sing to Donna, and I do sing in the shower, or when I think no ones listening. But my voice isn't as trained as it once was, and I find that there are only a few songs that I can comfortably sing well.

    All of them. I know an awful lot of talented people, and I don't think there's anyone in this world who isn't talented in some way. I've been lucky enough to work with and become good friends with a quite a few people that I consider to be incredibly talented but I don't think any one of them is more talented than any other.

    Recently I've been considering blue. I'm honestly not sure though, I'm not really one for hair dye and I've never done it before. I do really want to do something different with my hair, I'd want to keep the same length, but I just feel like changing it a little. No idea how as yet.

    Very much so. It doesn't seem to bother me with flying though - I think it's simply the height involved becomes abstract enough that it's no longer an issue. I have been known to pass out when perhaps 8ft off the ground. I also spent the entirety of a circuit on the London Eye gripping the central seating area and being unable to move. Similarly with Blackpool tower. The latter of course also not being helped by my (usually mild) phobia of elevators.

    I'm not sure on closest, though I have been in a car crash and for a long time I had severe asthma attacks. Other than that and some surgery as a kid the most I've ever done is sprain an arm or ankle. I've been on one roller coaster ever, under duress, and hated every second of it- never again. Oh, I have vertigo and once fell off of an 8ft fence as a result of passing out, no injuries to speak of though.

    Americans and their strange festivals/holidays. I never really understood the whole Labor Day thing. Even the spelling is a little off.

    Neither, I'm often told by family members that I resemble my mams' mam. Apparently I take more after the Howe side of the family. Greatest compliment I've ever been given was a member of my dads side of the family saying that I didn't look like a Shirley.
