Thread "ULTIMATE HARKO -QUIZ 2- Hark Harder! (The Answers!)" in forum "The Ultimate Harko-Quiz!"

Posted at 5:12AM, Dec. 7, 2009

Here is a list of the answers, plus where the answers could be found-

1) What is the name of the Fat Tsung-Dao that leads the ambush in chapter 5?

Dong-Yan (The answer was on the character guides, under Tsung-Dao characters.)

2) What is the name for the forward curving sword commonly used by Junlocks?

Falx (the answer appears in the Junlock section on the forum. Also if you know about Ancient Roman history you might recognise the Dacian war scythe!)

3) Who does The Speaker serve?

The King in the West (I gave half a point for answers like "Lord of the West" or "The Enemy". The correct answer appears in the character profiles section.)

4) Name the gods of the Golta?

Black Protector and White Mother (under the Golta section of the forum)

5) What animal do Zadakine resemble?

Weasels (This was a REALLY unfair question, as the answer only appeared in an incentive picture that is no longer up. Don't feel bad if you didn't get it, no one did!)

6) What is the worse episode of Batman the animated series I have reviewed so far?

Tyger Tyger ( I also accepted episode 41) The answer was on the forum under Batman the Animated series.

7) Which of the following races are evil?
-Darsai
-Junlocks
-Tsung-Dao
-Zadakine

Trick question, none of them are inherrently evil. They all include both good and bad examples (it would be a bit racist otherwise!) I gave half a point to anyone who cast doubt on them being all evil with answers like "Junlocks, if any" or "Its none of the ones I know so it must be Zadakine".

8)Who reviewed Harkovast for The Webcomic Review Comic (on the Web)?

Dr Luck and Zaymac (Answer can be found by just reading the review comic I do!)

9)Name as many derogatory racial terms from Harkovast as you can. 1 point per right answer.

Lots of points to be had here! Terms appear all over the place, but here are a few-
Tolpish (Golta term for foriegners)
Scrabber (Nymus term for foriegners)
Cur (insult to Junlocks, implying they are dirty animals. I didn't think of this one when I started the quiz! Well done to everyone who got it!)
Beak (derogatory term for Nymus)

10)How many nations currently make up Vellastrom?

I count 11 on the map that appears in the art section of the forum. I would have given points if you had said 10 and justified it that the wahdaq are a bit far north to count. They are sort of boarderline between continents.

11)Name as many races of Harkovast that are NOT (or are no longer) native to Vellastrom as you can. (1 point per right answer.)

Answers to this appear all over the place, as I name drop a lot, but here are a few-
Tolpish (mentioned in the Golta section)
Knarl (mentioned a few times in the magic section)
Eslum (cant remember where I mentioned them, but D_Dude said them, so I must have!)

A few ones to make you kick yourself-
The Nameless (they come from the West!)
The Wizards of Eldex (even I didn't get this one till my friend pointed it out, but he was right! The clue is in the name!)

12)How many nations make up the Nameless Race?

As it says on the incentive picture "8 nations, 1 King, The Nameless Race!)
So the answer was 8.

13)What is my favourite page of Harkovast so far?

Personal Space (you could also have described the page or posted a link to it)
The answer appears in the authors notes of that page, and also if you read the review on the web comic review (which you should have to get other answers!) that was the page I linked too as my favourite.

14)Why do you like Harkovast?

Silly Bonus question so everyone got at least one point! I just wanted to see what people said!

Well done to everyone who entered, the standard was VERY high. I was worried I had made the quiz impossible but people scored very well.

But there can only be one winner!

And I can't remember where I found the eslum either actually.

Eslum are cool.
Sea-Lion people from very very far to the north (further even then Jaydia.)
Their culture is like renaisance Italy, they worship the sea as their Goddess and their magical elements are Ice and Water.

Leet master I was assuming people would go and do research for these rather then try to answer them off the top of their head! These questions are meant to be TOUGH!
