Senior Member Interview
Eriana Avin, Senior Member Interview, January 29th 2008
- What is your Tower name?
Eriana Avin
- When were you raised to Aes Sedai of the Gray Ajah?
November 2006
- Why did you choose Gray?
I just found that I seemed to click with the Grays that I talked to around the Tower (for example, in the Hallways). They were all really nice to me and had a great sense of humor about them, and I felt (and still feel) that I fit in with them.
- Are you like the Grays in the Books?
I believe I'm somewhat like the Grays in the Books but not to a huge extent. I will sometimes mediate between friends, but I haven't had to do that very often. And I definately don't believe that I'm "cool and isolated" in the sense that the Grays of the Books have tended to seem :)
- Do you love politics and do you like to discuss a lot?
I am very opinionated when it comes to politics and will discuss them if given a chance. However, at times there are some things connected to politics that get me so infuriated that i don't want to think about them at all. I guess it really depends on the subject.
- How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
My time as a JM was really fun. I had a great time getting to know the different Ajah's and my fellow Citizens/Novices/Accepted. Also, once I found my Ajah, I really started to find my own little home within the Tower.
- How long have you been a member of TV.net?
I have been a member of TV.net for a little over two and a half years.
- How did you get to read the Series?
I got into the series when a friend lent me The Eye of the World after attempting to explain the many plot lines to me and then realizing that the only way I would understand is if I read them myself.
- Who is your mentee, if you have one?
My mentee is A'tyende :)
- Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?
I would have to say that Mat is my favorite character becuase he is just so funny and just keeps going.
- Have you ever attended any Real Life Functions? Did you like them if you did, and why? (Why do you think people should come to any future functions?)
No, but I hope to in the future because i have met a number of people from the Tower in Real Life and we always had a great time and i would love to be able to meet more people!
- What kind of music do you like?
Classical, Celtic, Movie Soundtracks, and a few other things that I can't really think of a name for.
- What are your favorite movies?
The original Star Wars trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean (all 3), Boondock Saints, Batman Begins, Lord of the Rings, and many many more :)
- What job do you have?
Student!!! I'm a first-year at Smith College :)
- Do you have a pet?
I have a Golden Retriever named Mariah back home.
- What languages do you speak?
English, and I can read and write in Hebrew but I have no idea what I' reading or writing, and a little bit of Latin.
- What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
A Vet!
- Lanfear or Moghedien?

- Seanchan or Shara?

- Candles or lamps?
