This is an internet survey as it would have been filled out by Booster Terrik. This originated on alt.fan.wedge, and was done only for fun. I made no money from this, and I do not own Booster Terrik. That honor belongs to Lucasfilm. Do not repost anywhere without permission from the author.
NAME: Booster Terrik
NICKNAMES: Too many to list here.
SEX: Male, and looking pretty damn good for my age.
LIVING ARRANGEMENT: Anywhere I feel like on the Errant Venture, my Star Destroyer.
HEIGHT: 1.9 meters. Since a lot of you don't use metric, though, I've translated it to about 6' 3" tall.
EYES: Brown. Used to have one cybernetic eye that was red. Should've kept it. Freaked CorSec out one night in the dark when he saw it. Thought it was one of those laser pointer thingies.
HAIR: Brown and cut short. Okay, so it's not so brown anymore, but it is in my mind.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TV SHOW?: I watch a lot of CNN and anything having to do with the stock market.
WHAT'S ON YOUR MOUSE PAD?: (Booster blushes profusely and mumbles) A picture of me and Mirax when she was about 12.
FAVORITE MAGAZINE: Galactic Money Street. Best guide to what people are willing to pay for items.
FAVORITE SMELL: Credits entering my hand, no strings attached.
FAVORITE COLOR: Blood red
WORST FEELING IN THE WORLD: Having your little girl go missing and not knowing if you'll ever see her again. Not being able to do a damn thing to help her for months.
BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD: Getting her back safe
THINGS TO DO ON THE WEEKENDS: I don't get a weekend. Opportunity knocks every day of the week. What do I do in my free time? I usually get stuck watching my grandkids. Oh, yeah, my favorite hobby is razzing my daughter's husband.
FAVORITE MUSIC: Anything I can get for free and is not Imperial or CorSec related.
WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU THOUGHT OF WHEN YOU WOKE UP THIS MORNING?: Time to get up and make some money!
DO YOU GET MOTION SICKNESS?: No.
ROLLER COASTERS DEADLY OR EXCITING?: Deadly. You think the NR's making sure they get all the parts they need for those things? It took me over a decade to finally get this Star Destroyer fixed, and it's already starting to break down!
PEN OR PENCIL?: I hate writing. I have datapads and computers for that sort of thing.
HOW MANY RINGS BEFORE YOU ANSWER THE PHONE?: It depends on who's calling. Important clients get answered immediately. Talon Karrde gets four or five, and CorSec gets ten or so. It really annoys him.
FAVORITE FOODS: Anything my daughter makes. Especially her rhyscate.
DO YOU GET ALONG WITH YOUR PARENTS?: They've been dead for decades.
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME: Yes. Smuggling. If you must know, CorSec's father got lucky, was able to catch me, and saw to it I spent five years of hell on Kessel. Then there's the crime I did against myself, where I allowed my only daughter to marry the son of Hal Horn. I should've killed him when I first saw him!
CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA?: Which one's cheaper?
DO YOU LIKE TO DRIVE?: Yes
DO YOU SLEEP WITH STUFFED ANIMALS?: I'm a smuggler. I have a reputation. Of course I don't!
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY KIND OF PET, WHAT WOULD IT BE?: There is no way in hell I'm letting aboard an animal aboard this ship. Unless it's in quarantine, that is, and its owner is willing to pay extraordinarily well for the privilege.
IF YOU COULD BE ANY TYPE OF ANIMAL WHAT WOULD YOU BE?: I'd be one of Karrde's pet vornskrs. That way I could really annoy him.
THUNDERSTORMS, COOL OR SCARY?: Cool. Was able to elude many a pursuit because of them.
IF YOU COULD MEET ANYONE DEAD OR ALIVE, WHO WOULD IT BE?: Hal Horn. We have unfinished business between us, he and I.
FAVORITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK: Anything Corellian that I didn't have to pay for.
WHAT IS YOUR ZODIAC SIGN?: Whichever one will make me rich and/or keep me and my ship out of trouble.
EAT THE STEMS OF BROCCOLI?: What do I look like, a rabbit?
GUYS-WOULD YOU GIVE UP YOUR SHIRT FOR A GIRL: I would, but last time I did that the girl was revolted. I don't get it.
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY JOB YOU WANTED, WHAT WOULD IT BE?: Chief of State. This galaxy would be a different place if I were in charge.
IF YOU COULD DYE YOUR HAIR ANY COLOR, WHAT WOULD IT BE?: I've been thinking about just turning it back to its original color. Get rid of all this gray and white stuff.
IF YOU COULD HAVE A TATTOO, WHAT AND WHERE WOULD IT BE?: I have many of them. Which one do you want to hear about?
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN LOVE?: I was, once. Let's move on...
DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM WEDDING: Pass
WHAT IS ON YOUR WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?: Stuff. None of your business.
IS THE GLASS HALF EMPTY OR HALF FULL?: CorSec, have you been drinking my whiskey again?
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SNAPPLE?: Is that another of Karrde's pet vornskrs?
ARE YOU A RIGHTY, LEFTY OR AMBIDEXTROUS?: I use whatever hand is convenient at the moment.
DO YOU TYPE WITH YOUR FINGERS ON THE RIGHT KEYS?: I try not to type. That's what I have people like Mirax and Nawara around for.
WHAT'S UNDER YOUR BED?: Smuggling compartments, of course.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE NUMBER?: Whatever number symbolizes the highest amount of credits I can get out of a sale.
WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CAR?: I never owned a car. The first thing I ever flew was my dad's Nubian. He didn't know I had it until I totaled it. That was the start of all our problems.
WHAT IS YOUR DREAM CAR?: How much better can you get than an Imperial Star Destroyer?!
FAVORITE SPORT TO WATCH: CorSec trying to get himself out of trouble of his own making.
SAY ONE NICE THING ABOUT THE PERSON WHO SENT THIS TO YOU: He hasn't hurt my daughter yet. And he'd better not think about it, either! I had to respond to this, just because he thought I wouldn't.
OF ALL THE PEOPLE YOU SEND THIS TO, WHO IS LEAST LIKELY TO RESPOND TO IT: Talon Karrde.
