Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is Elspeth's brother's name?

Answer: Jes

Well let's see... we better hope very hard that Rushton is not Elspeth's brother, since he is her betrothed. Domick is also betrothed to the Healer Kella and Alexi was killed (and one should hope that he is DEFINITELY NOT Elspeth's brother) in the end of "Obernewtyn".
2. Who was the little boy that Elspeth encountered in "Obernewtyn" at the Coucilcourt, and then found out in a later book that he was one of the Druid's Armsmen?

Answer: Daffyd

Daffyd, the very sad farseeker, is a key character, who forewarned the Misfits in the mountains against the attack of the Soldierguards. Myrna is the keeper who escorted Elspeth to Obernewtyn, and is also a girl! Henry is actually the Druid, who Daffyd used to work for before Ariel betrayed him. Ariel is Elspeth's greatest nemesis.
3. What was Kasanda's original name?

Answer: Cassy Duprey

Very mystical. Cassy never knew she had a talent. When she was shipped to a top-secret place in the mountains, she found an Agyllian bird who showed her her powers. The Agyllian, the Eldar Atthis' ancestor, told her to tell Hannah Seraphim that he, and the other Talented from Hannah's lab, were there.
4. What is the name of the main hater of Misfits in the Rebellion?

Answer: Malik

Malik the nasty. It was he who ambushed the Misfits in the White Valley and then put on a innocent act afterwards. We all hate him. He is very ruthless and will sacrifice his own men to show that he is superior.
5. What is the name that the beasts give Elspeth?

Answer: Innle

Innle, in Beastlegend, will lead all of the beasts to the free-running-barud (or in other words free-running-home). This is what most animals call her. Alad, the Beast-speaking guildmaster, believes that the animals only call her this because it can also mean "traveller".
6. What is the name that beasts give to "dreams that call"?

Answer: Ashlings

Ashlings are dreams that call. These are such dreams as those Atthis gives to Elspeth and Maryon, the Futuretelling Guildmistress. Farseekers are people that can talk mind-to-mind. Seliga is a weird beast word, which Elspeth interprets as "go back".
7. What rank does Dragon have?

Answer: Princess

Dragon is indeed the long-lost daughter of the Red Queen, who died at her gateman's hands. He killed her so that the slavers could dominate her land, because the legend says that "When the Red Queen rules the land, all evil shall be banished" or something like that.

When the gateman killed the Red Queen, prophecy says that "When the lost princess returns with the royal sceptre, you shall be free".
8. What is Jakoby's daughter's name?

Answer: Bruna

Bruna is a very temperate girl, who loves playing games. She likes to be in the company of Dardelan, the sweet son of the Sutrium rebel leader Bodera. Bodera is dying of the rotting sickness, which makes painting a picture of Bodera very gross for us readers! ;)
9. Who does Elspeth fall in love with?

Answer: Rushton

Rushton is the Master of Obernewtyn, a very sweet guy who was smitten with our hero from the first time he met her. In the caves of the Zebkrahn, when Alexi was toruring Elspeth, he showed his latent abilities by drawing Elspeth into a mindbond. When Madam Vega threatened to kill Rushton, Elspeth found her deadliest weapon: her power to kill with her mind. Very seriously freaky!
10. Who was the spy that the Guildmerge sent into the Councilcourt at Sutrium?

Answer: Domick

Domick was sent to spy on the malicious doings of the malevolent Council. He drew farther and farther away from Obernewtyn, until he severed all connections to the haven in the mountains. Currently, at the end of "The Keeping Place", Domick is missing and Kella is grief-stricken.
11. What was the name of Freya's father?

Answer: Brannoch

Brannoch was Freya's father, who sold her and all of his horses for a single bag of gold given to him by Rushton. A very nasty gesture, I thought! :)
12. What is the name of the One, the leader of the Herder Faction?

Answer: We don't ever find out

Eril was actually one of the Nine. We never found out what the name of this malicious character was, who was bent on destoying the Misfits because of false religious fervour. We all hate the Herders, aside from Jik, the cute little empath who was killed in a firestorm. :(
13. In Dragon's Mind (in "The Keeping Place"), what form does Rushton have?

Answer: A bear

At the end of "The Keeping Place", we learned of Dragon's lineage, and her sad past, forgotten because of a block in her conscious mind. Elspeth saved a drowning Rushton-bear, and released him from his mindless coma.
14. What was the name of the security director at the Govamen's secret complex in Old Scotia?

Answer: Petr Masterton

Old Petr Masterton was the burly guy that Cassy loathed. He was an inflexible figure and I'm sure we'd all like to see him die.
15. Who are the first friends Elspeth made at Obernewtyn?

Answer: Dameon and Matthew

Dameon, the blind empath and Matthew, the farseeker were the inseparable couple in the mountains. They were the first friends Elspeth made. She and they conspired to escape and solved the mountain's mysteries together. According to some sources, apparently Dameon is in love with Elspeth! Well, that is the end of my quiz!
