Okay I decided to share this here too. I'm currently reading a book called Kushiel's Dart by Jacqueline Carey, and it's amazing. It broke my heart so it's been set down for a while, but I found a quiz that I wanted to share. Basically this is kind of like how in Harry Potter sorts the students. There are 13 Houses in the Court of Night-Blooming Flowers, or the Night Court, and this is designed to see which House you would belong to. So if anyone's interested here's the quiz: Night Court QuizI'll share my result too. I sort into Heliotrope House. You can check the description of each result after you take the quiz. There's an option to view all results. |

Orchis doesn't surprise me for you Anju. Aww! Heliotrope like me. ^_^ So sweet. And the test is for both genders. Boys and girls get placed in the houses. ^^
Anju, the sex questions have to do with the book.

Ah, I hadn't considered that. Well just replace it with god/king. ^^ It should be for both genders. The characteristics of the Houses are the same.

Eglantine's fun Aoi. It's the creative/performance House. ^^
Okay I'll give a bit of explanation. You guys could google it though... lol
In the kingdom the book is set in there's a set of 13 Houses called the Court of Night-Blooming Flowers. Those who serve in the houses do so in service to the goddess Naamah. Naamah is basically a goddess of sex and sensuality. At the age of 16 a boy/girl becomes an adept of their house. Each house has it's own canon, and adepts fostered by each house represent that canon in someway. For example Eglantine House is the performance house. All the adepts in Eglantine can tumble, sing, play an instrument, write poetry/plays/stories, or have another creative talent. Basically patrons can contract an adept for a night or more for some sort of entertainment (typically it involves sex as all adepts are trained in bedchamber manner, but they can be contracted for simple entertainment as well). Usually then the patron gives a patron gift (money) directly to the adept which then goes toward the adept's marque, a tatoo on their back. Once an adept's marque is complete they may leave the House they serve, or continue to serve within the house.
That's kind of the best description I can give. Anything else in particular I can answer?

You're not buying Cereus? I'll go reread the description the quiz gives because I think that fits you.
