I'm a dwarf.....
And that's not cool.
The only thing me and a dwarf have in common, is running short distances.
I walked the mile in school one year and I made it at 16 minutes. That was hilarious. We cut like, hmmmm, 34 times and still got the worst score ever.
When we crossed the finish line, we were skipping singing, "We're off to see the wizard!"
Too bad the gym teacher can't take a joke.....

I became an Castle: Archer with 9 points! The others were:
Tower: 6 - Gremlin
Fortress: 5 - Gnoll
Interesting test. Everything in all these towns are sooo me. Well, I'm not that arrogant, and I'm not that stupid either, and not a controlfreak, but the rest of it was correct.
Nice work, Svarog!
Ps. I don't know if the ladies adore me, but many of them say I have a nice voice.

Ah, so I'm one of the dreaming guys, then, at that's good to hear.
I'm a Pegasus of the Rampart, and according to this test I should like playing Dungeon and Castle too... but that's not correct.....

I'm a pegasus, and after that a zombie. The descriptions are pretty accurate, I have to admit that it's one of the best tests I have taken. Congradulations!

Damn it, is it ever possible for you not to score one of those demonic satanistic critters? 
Tell you the truth, I wondered if it was possible someone to get Inferno with such evilish options. Guess it was.

kinda worries me with all the evil and demented minds out there. Cant imagine someone scoring that way by the answers on this test, unless they were not truthfull or they are seriously warped. Hoped there would be more knights and angels. I still will keep my hopes up though.

I don't know redhawk. Knowing what I wrote for each of those, I feel that often the Castle can be worse than the Inferno. Mostly the intrapersonal relationship.

one could easily tell that you would think that svarog concidering your text about C.
IMO its very exaggerated and its kinda obvious that you didnt expect to have many of C value and well..suprise you didnt 
My problem with that text lies within being a leader doesnt neccesarily make you a huge ego that only admires yourself. Afterall what being a leader is all about is to make others improve to the occation that you want.
You dont do that by worshipping yourself 24/7.
Though presumptions like yours is often based on experiences, and i dont know what experiences youve had but its obvious you are more put into the anarchy class so my guess is that the leading role people youve had has been very egocentric.
But if you look around.. the best leaders are the ones that make others feel good about themselves so they get a raise of self confidence.
For example.. take a look at Hitler. Sure he was a man with a complete braindead philosophy IMO.. but he was one of the biggest leaders in history.
He had that... he made the german nazis feel appreciated and won their trust.
For a more modern example.. look at football managers/captains. The best captains are the ones making the players around him better, not the one taking all the publicity
Example.. Alan Shearer, a now retired England captain... take a look at Newcastle playing with him and without him. Sure his playing capability as missed, but not nearly as missed as the leader presence he represents. And always points out that the game is a team effort.
Bad capts: totti... puts himself above the team and acts like a jerk.
Point is.. leadership doesnt have to be a bad thing. The leaders you remember are usually the ones that is a part of a bigger team.. not the one taking credit for the team. Then if that team is a country, military unit or a sportsteam doesnt matter.

Again, your post confirms your personality. 
Being a "knight" is not all about leadership as you think. In fact getting deeper into psychology, I'd say it's more about being led.
The essence in being a castle creature, is to follow ideals, to serve for a greater good. Morality and devotedness is what makes you never to question those and not to step from them under any circumstances. From your infinite belief in those ideals directly arises self-confidence and egocentrism. Only indirectly self-confidence and loyalty may bring you closer to leadership. Leadership is not the starting point here, as you think. In fact, many castle persons only exibit a potential for leadership, that doesn't mean they necessarily have it. Strong moral codes and patterns of honour are usually connected with conformism, as opposed to the anrcho-chaotic type, since that is where our traditional depictions of the words "right" and "wrong" come from. (As opposed to alternativists and self-seekers who are often more flexible about the distinction between those two) The general approval of those widely accepted definitions of right and wrong by most people makes you even more capable of leading others.
Of course, this doesn't mean that castle persons are always conformist, but the nature of their relationship with their ideals and beliefs is the same.
At least that's what I can say from experience and the reasoning I put behind the test. 
The mistake anyone would do is to link any of these types of personalities with either evil or good. I know they associate a bit, but the essence behind them is really from everyday life. Maybe the choices in the questions should have been less extremist, but imo that way the differiation could have been less accurate.

nope
im not saying that every "castle" person with a moral code is a leader.
But then again im not saying that every castle person is selfcentred and goes for his own beliefs either.
You cant generlize one of them and not with the other just to serve your purposes you know 
My point with my former post was to point out that it was obvious that you were the opposite to a "castle person" and therefor you IMO backtalked it too much. Which usually is ok since its your test and based on your opinions and experiences. But that doesnt mean that they are accurate to everyone, so there 
Also having moral codes doesnt make you see everything in black and white (right/wrong), we dont go like "thou stole that nice piece of bread, now we shall your head chop off"... 
There are always things in a "grey zone", and having a strict moral code doesnt remove that.
Im a very moral person and im full of principes (spelling?) but that doesnt make me judging on everyone that is not, sure there are things i dont like but it is a question of understanding aswell... and its understand the people around you that makes you a good leader. So IMO morality and an honor code can help you build up a good leadership but there are always other ingredients that is needed aswell.
You just cant generelize everything off.
btw, i asked you a question about the "leader" persons you have had in your life... would still be interesting to see the answer to it.

Hey Stiven, i told u i dont garantee 100% accuracy. 
but i still think u incredibly match the description.
Anyway, i didnt make the test with the preconcieved idea that i dont match castle, and therefore it should be bad. it just came the way it did from my experience and philosophy.
btw, if you wanna know, i don't support authorities. I can only put myself in the hands of a leader, if he treats everybody with respect and knows his job.
Through my experience, i can say I've been leader most of the time, then led. I had a leadership clash with one extremely sexy but extremely piosonous girl recently, and that's about the nastiest leadership connected experience I've had if I may say so.

Svarog and Sir Stiven, Both of you make very valid points from both sides of the spectrum. I am A leader and I am also lead. I issue and take orders from within my castle so to speak. I am a good leader, and a great follower. My greatest asset in my job is my flexabillity with orders, given and taken. I relate to the castle for I see order and discipline as the core root of civilization. It is only my opinion though.
