*cough*

Laya's first trivia quiz was finally concluded.

The grand prize went to ColdCaptivated for giving all the correct answers after figuring out that Kylara was what Prideth and Gary Tobai had in common.

Congratulations to the winners of the first quiz. Laya hopes she stretched your minds a bit.

Now for the second quiz.

Read carefully!

1. Anne McCaffrey's Kylara was a Weyrwoman who didn't have a last name. Elizabeth Moon's Kylara Vatta, on the other hand, had a longer name. What is Kylara Vatta's full name? (10k)

2. Esmay Suiza, Laya's favorite heroine, is an officer of the Familias Regnant Regular Space Service. When she's in space, that is. What did she become, on her home planet? (Note: This became a major issue later, when she wanted to get married.) (10k. 3 pizzas to whoever posts the name of the planet as well.)

3. What does the name of Laya's cream jaaku mean? (10k)

4. Laya has a nattie tesuri named Urduja. Who is she named after? (10k)

5. What do the names of Laya's kiokas mean? (There are two; 10k each name meaning.)

6. Laya has a black kayoki named Raheli, named after a character in Sharon Shinn's Samaria books. Name this character (10k for each name, there are two), and who she is (10k). A random uilus squishy to whoever posts the name of the book where she is the main character.

7. Part of Laya's username was taken from the name of a character in Noli Me Tangere. Name this character (15k to whoever names the character and another 15k to whoever can say what this character means to Laya's people.)

8. The character in question number 7 is said to have been inspired by a real-life person. Who is this person? (15k to whoever gives the name and another 15k to whoever can say what this person meant to the author of the book.)

That's 150k. As usual, another 100k to whoever can post ALL the answers to ALL the questions first.

When all but two questions have been answered, Laya will no longer post the answers because by then the 100k prize will be up for grabs to whoever posts ALL the answers first.

 

Total prize: 250k. Laya might just throw in a random item if she likes your answers.

Have fun, now! *evil grin*

7. The character's name is Maria Clara, but she doesn't represent the Philippines, exactly. And she can't be a typical girl, because the story was written way back in the 1800s.

5. You're nearly there. Laya is looking for two words for that one. Try again.

8. No, Maria Clara was NOT Josephine. Try again.

oh well, 15k to you.

Frank1110987:

4. Hmmm. I'll consider that one. Princess Urduja, some say, was just a myth. Others claim she was real. She is said to have existed in the time before the Spaniards came to the Philippines, and that as her king-father's sole heir, she actually inherited his throne and ruled the kingdom after his death. One story told about her is that she ordered her own son punished for breaking a law she had laid down... she said that she wouldn't be much of a ruler if she broke her own laws. 10k to you.
