Wits: 3
Charisma: 5 - Dangerously high. No wonder she's got hoards of net monkeys following her. Gee wiz.

Personalized Epithets, limited to three for each subject:
Art lover - DL loves art, what can I say? A frequent poster in the fanart forum and owner of her own art thread. Her first post was even in an art thread. And she may deny it, but she's pretty good at art herself. The reviewer wouldn't mind seeing more art from her in the future. She also loves anime. Though the reviewer wishes she had more respect for DBZ , he's okay with her taste in anime.
Rabid fangirl - Stand back! A picture of the Hoff, Carth, or "Still" by Foo Fighters may get her fired up. Do. not. dis. the. Hoff. As her Obsidian card showed, she is head fangirl around here, and proved it in Darkside's "Welcome Fangirls" thread. Though her rabid behavior has calmed down a bit recently (we have not heard a fangirl squeal for some time), she still may get stirred up occasionally.
Geez, I can't think of a third one. How about this - Chameleon. Though known and feared by many, she may still feel the need to defend herself. Whenever in danger, or to scare off n00bs, she may take the form of a 25 year old Swedish man with a goatee. Beware. :ph34r:

Reviewer’s notes:
Well, what can I say? DL is really one of the nicest people on these forums. Some may think of this as hormonal male teenage bias, but the reviewer honestly has great respect for her. She's intelligent (or is good at making it seem that way), and has a good sense of humor. Heck, she laughed at pixies' Supermarket thread while Gabs complained about it. She doesn't flame, but can open up a can of spam once in a while. (she may have learned the technique from Baley, who could possibly still be locked up in her cupboard) DL also likes to balance things out. For example, she's a forum member, but also likes to read. From what the reviewer gathers, she's also an athlete as well. WOW! The reviewer also learned (whilst in the form of Chupacabra) that she may have tried snake's blood! What a brave gal. In conclusion, DL is one of the most likeable members of this forum. She has few things going against her. She does share a birthday with another (in)famous board member, but hey, she can't help that. The reviewer is definitely glad to have met her. Fear the spork!
The reviewer is a little worried though. This report was late in the coming, and may not be up to standards and thus invoke the wrath of DL, in which case the reviewer would also have to be locked up in her cupboard. :ph34r: Oh well.
