New Team Orange Survey
This is a sort of fusion of Tony's Passenger IC Questionnaire with Eva's and Curufin's Orange Team Survey. The request is that all current Orange Team members fill it out, both old and new members. Please answer these questions IC.
Characters will find printed copies of this survey at the Orange Team meeting, and if anyone misses the meeting, they can get a copy from either Eva or Curufin.
Survey is below. At the top of the page, it says:
These surveys are for information gathering in an attempt to find commonalities amongst those of us on Orange. In the event we release any information (IE: Skills, species, median age etc), names will not be shared.
Please fill this in and hand it back to either Eva or Curufin.

no subject
Your name? Nerdanel Mahtaniel
Your species? Noldo
Your sex/gender you identify as? Female
What’s your birthday/ years you’ve been alive? Goodness, I honestly don't remember
How many years is the average lifespan of your species? until the world ends, so they say
Year you’re from: I really am not sure you know, I don't keep track. Somewhere in the Fourth Age of the Sun?
How many months/days in a month in your world’s calendar? depends on which calendar, really!
What age is considered 'adult' in your culture? 50 would be considered physical adulthood, but we don't truly come of age til 100
Technology:
What is the most advanced technological device in your world? I suppose that would depend on what you consider technology, really...
Is this train something new or are there trains like this in your world? One that goes through the Void? Oh, we don't have trains in Aman!
What is a common piece of technology you use regularly? well, you'd really have to define that...
Are you skilled/ comfortable with using technology? if you mean THIS sort of technology, I'm learning!
Have you identified any objects here on the train you need or would like a tutorial on? Oh, I'm making do, for the moment
Magic/ Spiritual:
Does your world use magic? Depends on how you define magic, again...
Do you use magic? By what you humans consider it, I suppose I do
What is it based on? Why, the Song, of course!
Common place or kept secret? oh goodness, the Song is everywhere, how could it be hidden?
Are there gods worshiped or recognized where you are from? Well, I've heard tell the Valar are considered gods by humans, but they really don't like being referred to that way. I suppose the only one TRULY is Eru, the One Above All, who first made the Ainur and began the Song.
Are these gods beings of great power that one could meet or are they purely spiritual/ faith based? Eru is beyond His creation, and so you can't reach him, although Lord Manwe talks to him, I'm told! The Valar are rather more approachable though.
Is there anything that could be provided to you to assist in your religious practices on board? oh dear me, no - we don't have anything like that
Inventory:
What items were in your rucksack upon waking? Specifically, did anything come with you from your home world? If so, what was it? oh yes, I had a small sculpting kit! One of my little travel ones.
Do you have items in your inventory that you have used to help with train projects or mission goals? Magical objects, weapons, communication devices, or any other useful items? No, sadly.
Medical
Do you have any medical conditions or issues that are being treated by a doctor? No
Do you have any known allergies or special dietary needs? No
Companions/World Events
Is there anyone from your world here? Were they here before you got here or arrived at the same time? Aye, my eldest two sons were here, Maitimo and Makalaure - you'd know them as Maedhros and Maglor. And my husband, my Feanaro, and my second youngest, Atarinke - Curufin, to you
Has there been a war in your world recently? Were you involved in it? Not in Aman - although you can hear the songs that tell of the fall of Sauron in the square, moreso now the Ringbearers have come.
Are there known threats to your city, country, world, galaxy, etc? Not to Aman, but in Middle-earth, perhaps!
What was happening when you were taken from your time and woke up on the train platform? Oh, I was working on a commission for my law-brother's begetting day celebrations.
What were some of the recent big events that have occurred before you woke? Mm, Nothing exciting in Aman. But Sauron was defeated not more than a few decades ago in Middle-earth.
If you had not been taken at that point in time, would you still be alive? Oh my of course!
Skills
What are your particular skills and abilities? Professional, technical, crafts, magical, physical, martial arts or weapons skills, etc.? List them below: Ah, I'm a sculptor. A very good one too, if I say so myself.
How did you use these skills and abilities in your own world or other worlds before you came to the Voidtrecker Express? Exactly that way! Sculpture is both my art, and my Art
Do you have any skills you'd like to teach? Well, I suppose if anyone would like to learn sculpting...
Do you know first aid or have healing abilities? Oh, I have the small Songs to soothe pain and encourage healing that every mother knows, but that's about it.
Do you belong to any group that is talented in particular skills or has any special talents or abilities? This group could be an ethnicity, a nationality, a family or clan. It could also be a profession, vocation, occupation, or career. The skills could be in craftsmanship, the arts, the sciences, the magic arts, or anything else you think might be useful. Ah well, as I said, I'm a sculptor!
Have you been on any Voidtrecker missions yet? A few yes.
If so, did you use your skills or abilities to further the goals of the mission? Oh my there's no real use for sculpture on missions!
How did you use them? Were you successful?
Everything Else
Do you have ideas about how you'd like to contribute to missions in the future? Whatever is needful.
Would you like to receive training in skills you don't currently possess? If so, which? These can be any skills whatsoever that you think might be useful to the the team or to missions. I suppose I'd have to take that as it comes...
