About Me
Hullo.
To give you an overview, I am what you might call an artist. I haven't got an original bone in my body and thus do a lot of fanart. (I have a thread somewhere in the Creative Stuff section.)
Things I like include:
NiGHTS, (obviously) Legend of Zelda, Kingdom Hearts, ReBoot, Final Fantasy, Sherlock Holmes, musicals and theatre in general, my room, bon odori, mechanical pencils, food, particularly of the Japanese or Italian nature, drawing, sleeping, and a ton of British detective shows.
Also I like cats.
And I live in Hawaii.
I'm a terrible community member and you will probably go for months without ever seeing or speaking to me. But uh... that's just how I am. : )
cheers~

In Topic: Your Personal Ideya++

Do I actually think there are other colors? Not really, but I wouldn't rule it out as a possibility/find it unreasonable. And I would disagree on the Inspiration label. Inspiration is not a trait, not something you can cultivate as tool for interacting with the world. You can't use or summon inspiration, you can only be inspired--it's an outside force, whereas Intelligence, Purity, Courage etc are things that come from within. Thus Creativity would better fit the bill, something you're born with and can continue to develop and nurture. I suppose you can also be inspiring, but that's the ability to fill others with purpose, lift people up and get them moving or engaged, which is not at all what I'm talking about in myself. I am literally talking about the ability to (keyword) create, to take the threads of other ideas and weave them into something new, to look at the world and see it in a unique way. If I inspire anyone with my work, that's an unintentional byproduct, and I certainly can't control what inspires me or when. In fact creativity is what lets you push through and create even when inspiration won't hit.
If indeed there are other Ideya, I would classify them as... other Ideya. The canonical five would perhaps be the essential Ideya, the most important for Dreamers or maybe just the most basic, so Primary works. Maybe any others would be known as secondary? I don't really know what they would be... perhaps something like Empathy as well as Creativity? I mean it really depends how we're defining Intelligence here, which is a whole 'nother conversation. General intelligence? Academic? Ability to process information? Are we including emotional intelligence? I personally separate Intelligence from Creativity, which is why I'd make it a whole different Ideya. I.e. Intelligence is the ability to absorb and analyze information, and then apply that information in a logical, reasonable way. Creativity is the ability to create NEW information, to think outside the box and use or interpret given information in ways that the average person might not think of. And I'm also here defining Intelligence in a purely cerebral fashion, which would make it a completely different animal from emotional intelligence, which for the sake of this conversation I'm going to label Empathy. If we use these definitions, then no, I would not consider these two hypothetical Ideya as derivatives of the primaries. You can be as intelligent as the day is long, but that doesn't mean you can make up a good bedtime story.
But uh... yeah, I basically stick to the five mentioned in the games. And actually, I haven't answered the poll yet : D I just posted.

I'm sure my maren is the same.
So uh... what color is that, indigo? I'm choosing indigo because purple isn't blue enough, but if I can have blue as well, Creativity can be purple.

I generally favor action and fighting games over other genres.
Some other faves:
Sonic (duh)
Street Fighter, Marvel/Capcom games
Streets of Rage 2
Ristar
Okami
The Neverhood
Shadow of the Colossus
Ratchet and Clank (series)
Rayman 2
Guardian Heroes
Soul Calibur (Dreamcast)
Ooh! Second on Okami. How could forget Okami?? Gorgeous, gorgeous Okami.
Also have a soft spot for Katamari (first two) and the occasional Harvest Moon.

I like Zelda games in general, with the N64 games being my favorites. I'm not into shooters... I prefer swords or good old fashioned fisticuffs. I'm kind of a Nintendo junkie (don't hate me) so Smash Bros. is right up on my list. Also a fan of Sonic games and the Kingdom Hearts series. Not so much Final Fantasy, but of that series, IX is my favorite. And then there's Journey. I don't even have the words to elaborate.
And well, I've not played these, but I really want to try Assassin's Creed and Arkham Asylum/City/whathaveyou.
