Okay. I was contemplating an essay I have to do for one of my classes: A dinner where famous people from history show up and eat dinner together, a sort of historical dinner party. I just want to see where this goes. You can play any famous person, not just from history. They can be contemporary or long dead, you choose. I guess I'll go first:

Name: Queen Elizabeth I
Aged:30

Ooo! Good one! I was hoping someone would pick her. And yes, actors are welcome.

Right on! What a briliant idea! :-D hmh... Should I be Hannibal or Mannerheim?... I´ll be Mannerheim!

Name: Mannerheim
Age: 75 (since he became the marshall of finland at that time...) but I guess that age doesn`t really matter in the end...

I think so...If you could keep her to more of a historical character, like Keira Knighley's character in King Arther, that would be better than a more legendary character.

Alright. Anyone can still join. I guess I will begin:

Elizabeth stood just behind the threshhold, looking in on the banquet hall. It was timeless, outside time's power, bringing together the living and the dead. She looked to Kat standing just behind her, who bade her to enter. Elizabeth took a deep breath and stepped forward, not knowing who else to expect.

Gustaf(his second name that he was called by) stood in the same timeless space looking around with confusion as he had his uniform on and looked as he stepped forwards. He saw a woman dressed qute differently that the time he had lived and then looked arounf, if there was more of strangers here.

Elisabeth saw a strange man walk in. She stood from her chair and nodded her head and greeted him thus: "Hail, sir. How art thou?" (Don't worry, that will probably be the end of any Elizabethan language.)
