Undertow — Byron Character Quiz
Byron, Son of Flora
© 2004 Darrell Hischke and Simone Cooper
1) How do you feel about the fact that your parent is extremely powerful compared to yourself and, even moreso, compared to shadow dwellers? Have you adopted their attitudes or rebelled against them?
2) How do you feel about the fact that Amber is denied to you, at least "until you're ready?"
3) If your Amber parent could be different than they were, what one thing would you most like to change about them?
4) What would you most like to do with your Amber parent, in an ideal world?
5) Do you respect or fear your Amber parent?
6) What do you want most from your Amber parent?
I think it is normal that my parent is more powerful than I am. Just as it is normal that most people are less powerful than I am. I'm done with the whole like my parents versus rebellion thing. I had tried both when I was a child, but now see myself as more independent. I've always been angry that I don't get to go to Amber. Its my birthright and petty of them to deny it to me. My idea of a great parent would be one who wanted to go world-hopping with me to share the adventure. I respect my parent for what they are able to do. I think my parent should confide in me and recognize me for the exceptional person I am.
