1. Do you have a real life hero and why do you admire him/her?
Maybe that would be my older (and only) sister. Because she has done so many good things in life to help others and unlike me she started a family which is a task I find too challenging. And she has always been there for me, she always has been a great sister and I also see her as a great, hard working, intelligent, soundminded woman, mother, wife, daughter.

2. Did you ever fell in love with a fictional character? Who is it and do you still love him/her the same way?
No, I don't think I ever have fallen in love with fictional characters. I found some charming, sure, but I more likely had loving feelings for real artists, not their creations.

3. What was your first video game? (it count the first one you clearly remember)
This would probably be "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" for DOS. It is an adventure game by LucasArts from 1989 about the movie of the same title (of course).
However, wether it is this game or even the 1987 adventure game "Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards", I cannot remember this clearly.

4. Pirates or vikings?
Pirates. Nothing against vikings but I am more familiar with yarrr pirates!

5. Is there any kind of food you don't tried yet, but really want to eat someday? Even seemingly bizzare things like fried grasshoppers or snake soup.
I cannot really think of something. Also: I am a vegetarian, so a lot of famous examples fall flat, like insects or exotic dishes (which I wouldn't eat anyway because if I would stil eat meat then for defeating my hunger, not for pure "cool" lifestyle choices).
I have already eaten something bizarre for my taste: Natto from Japan. But to be honest, I haven't managed to enjoy that, no matter how hard I have tried so far.
But I would love to join some tea ceremonies and also try special/unusual teas if there is a chance.
Also I would like to know what's the deal with these many fast food restaurants in the US like Wendy's, Denny's or Taco Bell.
Does not sound that bizarre, I know...

6. Is there a movie, that you really like, although everyone else hates it?
I get the feeling that I might be the only person who digs "Pleasantville" very much.
I never got a person to watch it with me. Either they nearly fell asleep or right away just went "Naaaa, don't wanna watch this".
This makes me sad because I think "Pleasantville" is a great movie and a visual treat.

7. If you get the opportunity to create a law, that will last forever, what will it be and why?
I don't know...life sentence for rape and child rape?

8. If your life could be more like a video game, which genre/game should it be?
When it comes to genres I can imagine adventures games as a fitting answer.
Some adventure games play in quite crazy, fantastic or silly scenarios, so it wouldn't be boring. Also it'd be a world where I ought to use my smarts (or develop them in the first place ^^) to get forward in my story/life. It would also be cool if making mistakes or having the wrong ideas wouldn't get me into bad trouble, a lot of adventure games have that.

9. Do you believe in extraterrestrial life?
To a certain degree I do. I think it would be arrogant to think we people on Earth would be the only intelligent living creatures in the universe. But I don't really believe in the stereotype of aliens we got fed for centuries, maybe it's people like us with a lot of very new, different cultures and languages?

10. What nickname would you give yourself, fitting to your personality? (your DA-name doesn't count!!)
Hm...I actually REALLY need more time to think about that. Because I don't like to change my username as often as others change their underware. But it could be something about art and tea this time ^^

11. What are your thought's about remakes/reboots? A good thing for the next generation or an insult to the fans of the classic?
When it comes to movies I rather think the second option.
Meanwhile reboots and remakes have become a real plague. It also almost doesn't matter wether some bad/unsuccessful movie gets a reboot/remake or not. And: I just cannot stand the thought of having a whole bunch of Disney movies getting remade just to make more money. Don't be fooled, it's not really about giving fans a new experience or view on a classic story or giving kids an idea about a classic. I'd rather see more new classics and original stuff.
Sure, there ARE really good reboots/remakes and some of them even outshine the original. But these are more like exceptions.
When it comes to games, I think more positive since some reboots are quite impressive and well done and really can give a new experience on a classic game or classic gameplay. For instance, look at "Ducktales Remastered", the "Resident Evil" reboots or "Tomb Raider: Anniversary".

12. If there's an extinct animal species, that you could revive, which one would it be?
I cannot tell...I have no favourite. And I find it sad in general when animals become extinct because of mankind. That is why I would feel so bad to just give one of them a chance to be revived.

13. What's your most favorite mythological creature?
Mermaids. Yes, that seems to be boring, but really like the concept of mermaids and also whenever they are not only used as supermodels with fishtails in artworks or photography. And a kid I at least wanted to breathe underwater, like mermaids

9. What games have driven you the maddest? (board/card games included)
