[Cadaverous Pallor]

Hmm, fantasy ancestry.....Medieval Britian. It's one of the few historical periods that I actually dig, when you're talking royalty.....but then there's the whole "Christianity doing away with knowledge" thing, as well as feudal serfdom and such. It'd be nice to think I came from a princess who fell in love with a knight...but in all likelyhood I'd be descended from some peasant who happened to survive the Black Death by running away from her stricken family instead of caring for them.

Hmm, Renaissance then? Perhaps I'd be descended from a traveling minstrel that wrote love poetry for the wealthy....perhaps not a member of the intelligencia but close enough to hear the whispers of greatness....after the day is done, finding the local equivalent of a beat club and swapping concepts with other deep thinkers.
