Ten Characters

Crimea River

Commander
Red Shirt
So, PSGarak (Enabran Tainted) and I took an Internet meme, and made our own questions for it. Basically, you list ten characters, and number them 1-10, and then answer the questions.

I'll start with this list. Have fun~
1. Kira Nerys
2. Weyoun
3. Odo
4. Gul Dukat
5. Benjamin Sisko
6. Quark
7. Miles O'Brien
8. Gul Evek
9. Jadzia Dax
10. Garak

The Questions
Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
 
Okay, I've got time to kill. I'll bite.

Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?
T1: Kira, Odo, Sisko, O'Brien, Dax
T2: Weyoun, Dukat, Quark, Evek, Garak

Team 1 wins by default. Team 2 would be too busy plotting against one another to get any work done. Garak would switch sides without Team 2 OR Team 1 knowing.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?
Male Kira: Little change to her character arc, though Bajoran males are almost universally boring. Heck, even the Odo romance wouldn't be a terrible stretch. It's not like he's got a gender to begin with.

Female Quark: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOT AGAIN!!! :brickwall:

Actually, a female Ferengi who rebelled from Ferengi society to set up shop on an alien space station wouldn't be a bad story.

Jadzia: Pretty boring switch here.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?
Weyoun & O'Brien: Can't picture a Vorta romance. They're clones with no asthetic taste and an interest only in serving the Founders. You'd have to assume that Weyoun is being duplicitous, and you'd start to resent O'Brien for being so gullible.

Odo and Evek: Not a chance in hell.


Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?
Dukat: Endurance. If for no other reason than the jackass deserves to be put through hell.
Sisko: Mechanical. He's an Academy-trained Starfleet officer, and knowledgable in Starship construction.
Garak: Gross out. I'm sure a top Obsidian Order agent has seen far worse than anything you could throw at him.


7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?
O'Brien as Kira's boss? Works fine, unless that awkward sexual tension pops up again.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?
Emony dated Weyoun 1, until he ran afoul of a jealous Leonard McCoy and three hypos full of Cordrazine...
Torias crashed his shuttle on Weyoun 2.
Weyoun 3 visited Joran. Current wherabouts unknown.
Weyoun 4 died of alcohol poisoning in a drinking contest with Curzon.

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?
Odo and Sisko?

Odo: "You humanoids seem to be fascinated with monetary gain. You take it. I'm not interested in wasting my life acquiring meaningless wealth."
Sisko: "Money? What would I do with that? Let's just donate it to the Bajoran War Orphan Fund."
Odo: "Sounds good to me."
Quark: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"


1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?
Kira and Weyoun pursuing Dukat? The word "DUH" comes to mind.

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?
Kira-->Weyoun: Spies on the Dominion.
Weyoun-->Kira: Spies on the Federation.
Odo-->Dukat: Pleads with the Founders to change him back.
Dukat-->Odo: Good god... Talk about a galactic disaster in the making.
Sisko-->Quark: Creole tube grubs.
Quark-->Sisko: 50 strips of latinum for one night with the Emissary. Women 18+ only.
O'Brien-->Evek: Demands Bashir change his face.
Evek-->O'Brien: Sabotages DS9.
Jadzia-->Garak: Insert Bashir/Garak slash joke here.
Garak-->Jadzia: See previous.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?
Quark... charitable... Does not compute.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
Odo and Evek. Odo shapeshifts into a brockian ultra-condor, and flies the horse and Evek across the desert in five minutes.
 
1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?
Odo-->Dukat: Pleads with the Founders to change him back.
Dukat-->Odo: Good god... Talk about a galactic disaster in the making.
OMG That is actually a fascinating idea... Someone should write a huge fanfic about it. :eek: :cardie:

Odo > Dukat would be helluva confusing for a lot of people... particularly Kira... confusing, but interesting... while Dukat > Odo would be, of course, terrifying. I imagine that Dukat would seize the opportunity to use his new abilities to the utmost and do his best to shapeshift better than Odo did, so we'd have a situation similar to Sylar in a few episodes of Heroes season 3 - you would never know which one of the characters was actually Dukat. Every time you see someone, you'll wonder "Is this the real Sisko/Kira/Rom/Dax/Miles/Jake/Leeta/Keiko... or is it Dukat"?

edit: Even better - he could also shapeshift into his own old body, and then you'll have two people looking like Dukat, and you would have to wonder which one is Odo in Dukat's body, and which one is Dukat in Odo's body taking the shape of Dukat and pretending to be Odo! :cardie:

Quark-->Sisko: 50 strips of latinum for one night with the Emissary
I don't want to see the fanfics that one would produce! :eek: :eek: :rommie:

Sorry, my own has already been fried by watching Heroes. :p The scenario above is the kind of thing that happens on that show on a regular basis. :lol:
 
Intriguing thread and I'm bored. I'll play! Doing mine before reading others...

ETA: aww man, I misunderstood, I thought we were supposed to provide our own list. Whoops. :( Oh well, I'm leaving it up anyway. :p

ETA2: Holy god, the Admiral's answers are hilarious! :guffaw:

But first, The List.

1. Jadzia Dax
2. Ezri Dax
3. Benjamin Sisko
4. Miles O'Brien
5. (Corat) Damar
6. Tora Ziyal
7. Kira Nerys
8. Kang
9. Opaka Sulan
10. Julian Bashir

Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?

So we've got
Team A: Jadzia Dax, Ben Sisko, Damar, Kira, and Opaka
vs.
Team B: Ezri Dax, O'Brien, Ziyal, Kang, and Bashir.

This looks like a solid victory for Team A. Kang may be able to take on any two of Team A, except perhaps Damar and Sisko and is I think the best of these ten. But I can't imagine Ziyal being much use in a firefight; in fact, I'm sure she's not. Opaka at least I think had some experience with the Resistance, though I'm not sure. Jadzia and Ezri have similar experience from Dax (Ezri perhaps slightly more) but Jadzia is taller and stronger, as well I think with more dedicated athletic training; she can at least hold her own with a skilled Klingon warrior. O'Brien's a competent-to-excellent fighter who's wily, while Bashir I'd say is similarly skilled but more dependant on his increased natural gifts. Neither is a match for either Ben or Damar in tactics or face to face, though. And Kira's a nasty, opportunistic fighter with a penchant for traps no doubt.

I don't think either team has any particular strengths or weaknesses over the other, just Team A is better overall. Well, Team A may be better at irregular combat, but O'Brien might have some experience there. Don't think either team would want to kick anyone off or trade; Ziyal may be a liability, but may not be, I just don't know.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?

So we're turning Jadzia Dax into a male (ho-hum, Dax has been there before), Ziyal into a male, and Opaka into a male. Honestly... nothing changes for Opaka IMO; even the story of her son isn't significantly affected.

So between Dax and Ziyal, I'd say Dax's story arc would be most affected, as I can't see the producers going for a maleDax/Worf romance, which became Dax's main storyline. Otherwise, no need for change in (now) his personality, being as this is Dax.

No significant changes needed for Ziyal, though no doubt the Ziyal/Garak story would go out the window. I'd say Ziyal's personality would be quite different as a male though.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?

This would be Ezri/Kira and Ben/Kang. Oh my. :rommie: My gut says Ezri/Kira would be more compatible... at least I think that's my gut talking. :devil: Also I think the more plausible, though I can't think of any reason why Ben/Kang wouldn't be, unless there was (unlikely) age quibblings. Call it a push IMO.

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?

My team is O'Brien, Damar, and Bashir? Oh, this is easy! O'Brien takes the mechanical challenge (easy), Bashir the gross out challenge (being a doctor), and Damar the endurance challenge, being a soldier and Cardassian.

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?

Kira becomes Jadzia's boss eh? Watch the show to see their working relationship - I especially recommend "The Way of the Warrior." ;)

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?

Hmm... so Ezri is inserted into Opaka's continuity. Assuming that would be during the Occupation then? Based on what she knows of the future, and the experience of lifetimes, I could see Zee becoming an advisor to the Kai, making little changes here and there to help how she can without making too many changes. Assuming no knowledge of future events, or that it's somehow "blocked out" her skillset especially as a counselor and with Jadzia's and Curzon's combat expertise could be put to a variety of uses. No problem fitting in, though the Cardassians might wonder what she's doing on Bajor.

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?

Ben and Damar. Reasonable, pragmatic men, especially post-Rebellion; I can see them agreeing to get the dough.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?

Oh my... Jadzia and Ezri pursuing Chief O'Brien? Can I volunteer to be the Chief for a time? :evil:

MIles chooses... Keiko, who restrains herself from cutting the Dax ladies to ribbons. Miles loves his wife. (Now if this were Bashir... he still loves his wife.;))

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?

Jadzia and Ezri irreversibly switch bodies. Ho hum.

Ben and Miles irreversibly switch bodies. Similar background in engineering, Miles has at least some ability to command per the Mirror Universe. Molly is confused about what happened to Daddy, but the family situation goes about normally. Little changes I think.

Damar and Ziyal irreversibly switch bodies. :rommie: Would this be mid-phaser-beam? Damar is pissed about losing his body for a smaller, weaker female body, and being Dukat's daughter? :lol: Ziyal's likely not too fond of this either. I'm sure Damar would have little enough trouble getting his position back, since the Cardassian military clearly employs females. Likewise with Ziyal, though Dukat will be very confused.

Kira and Kang switch irreversibly switch bodies. I'd like to think these two would respect each other for their accomplishments, if not neccessarily for each other's style. Again I don't think either would be particularly happy with the change, and I don't know how easily Kang will be able to maintain his rep and command in Kira's body. Bareil an Shakaar are most disturbed; Odo I would expect to be "meh." Worf feels highly redundant and outclassed.

Opaka and Bashir switch bodies. Bashir is dissapointed for being so much older; Opaka is serene about the entire thing, but having a much younger body would probably give her new eye a twinkle. I don't know if Bashir can continue as a gifted doctor in Opaka's body, especially doing careful surgery; the Vedek Assembly would probably be pretty suspect of a Kai in a human's body, especially with a human Emmissary.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?

Ziyal, Kira, Opaka, and Bashir must agree on a charitable pursuit. Oh man, that's like a dream team for charitable-pursuit-agreeableness there. No doubt something relating to Bajor/healing Bajor from the Occupation. Really, I'd say the sky's the limit here between the Kai, the good doctor, and DS9's second in command. And as people get to know Ziyal, no doubt they'll fall in love with her.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?

Ben Sisko and Kang have to cross a continent on horseback? Pfft... give them a challenge! How about a continent of ice! With roving Orion pirates! And a massive sidequest to rescue a beautiful damsel! Really, Ben and Kang crossing a continent and braving whatever challenges would be awesome to see. :cool:



Phew, good idea! Feel free to come up with some more!
 
Feel free to come up with your own lists. It'll get boring if we all go off the same list the entire time! And I agree with the above sentiments. The Admiral's answers were hysterical.
 
Here's my list, as random and chain of consciousness as I can make it with DS9 characters.

1. Jake Sisko
2. Nog
3. Rom
4. Leeta
5. Garak
6. Odo
7. Keiko O'Brien
8. Vedek Bareil
9. Kai Winn
10. Female Founder


The Questions
Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?

Jake, Rom, Garak, Keiko, and Winn against Nog, Leeta, Odo, Bareil, and the female Founder. Team one would be painful to watch. Bareil would feel kind of sorry for them after a while and pray to the Prophets to bring their efforts to a quick conclusion. Now, if it were a condescending challenge, Keiko, Garak and Winn, all strong in condascendafu, could lick the other team hands down without even trying.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?

Jake's a girl. What's the difference? Ok, so he'd go looking at boys on the Promenade instead of girls, and maybe his friendship with Nog would be a little spicier. Not much diff overall.

Odo's a woman. Well, if he wants to be, why not? Might throw Kira for a little loop, though.

Kai Winn is a man. This would make the whole seduction storyline between her and Dukat impossible, since we know DS9 doesn't like those same sex pairings except in the Mirror-verse, where it's shorthand for evil.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?

Nog and Keiko vs. Rom and Bareil. Well, as for the first pairing, while it might be in the headlines way more often than it ever should be, DS9 isn't that kind of show. Student isn't hot for teacher or vice versa. I have to say the second pairing is every bit as disturbing for entirely different reasons. In fact, I think a blood vessel just burst in my brain.

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?

Leeta, Garak, and the Female Founder. Garak is Obsidian Order trained and showed a great deal of aptitude for computers and mechanical devices, so he gets the mechanical challenge. Poor Leeta will have to do her best with the gross out, (she did marry Rom, after all) leaving the Female Founder for the endurance. As long as it's not over 16 hours, she should do great. :bolian:

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?

Keiko becomes Jake's boss. She's already his teacher, so I don't think that'd be much different of a dynamic. They should work fine together.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?

Nog and Kai Winn have always been together? Uhhh...ok, wait, I can do this. Nog got tired of being pushed around by his uncle on Terok Nor, so he decided to go find work on Bajor. He met up with Winn, and now he gets pushed around every day just like he did with Quark, but he doesn't even get paid. Life is so unfair!!

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?

Rom and Garak are both self-serving enough to stay out of each others' business when it comes to that fortune. Now Rom can finally buy Quark out, and Garak is still stuck on Deep Space Nine, but he dresses fabulously.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?

Are you kidding? You think Jake and Nog would have to be brainwashed into going after Leeta? Leeta tells both boys they are very cute, but they're both way too young for her. She then goes on to marry Rom, leaving Nog with some life scarring issues to work out somehow...some way.

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?
Jake and Nog swap. Hilarity ensues.
Rom and Leeta swap. Neither ever leaves their bed again.
Garak and Odo swap. God help the Alpha Quadrant. Odo wouldn't survive the week. Garak would make sure of it.
Keiko and Bareil swap. Keiko would be delighted with Bareil's arboretum. Miles would not be delighted with the new Keiko.
Kai Winn and the Female Founder. See Garak/Odo above.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?
Odo, Keiko, Kai Winn, and the Female Founder. You know, it might not be as bad as it sounds. I think all four of them could actually agree to help Bajoran war orphans. Odo and the Female Founder would make sure the money that came in was in order and that records were well kept. Keiko would have a hands on approach in schooling and entertaining the kids, and Winn would use the project for political gain, meaning she'd throw a lot of effort and publicity behind it.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?

Rom and Vedek Bareil in the Wild, Wild West. Please tell me this isn't a sequel to their ill fated romantic pairing above...
 
I'll just make a list of my favourite trek characters and see the result:
1. Elim Garak
2. Jean-Luc Picard
3. The Doctor
4. Kira Nerys
5. Corat Damar
6. Shran
7. Jonathan Archer
8. Odo
9. Skrain Dukat
10. Data

Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise?
So that's Garak, Doc, Damar, Archer and Dukat vs. Picard, Kira, Shran, Odo and Data. The victory would likely go to team 2. They have Odo, who can change into anything, an android of superhuman strength, and Shran and Kira are both very good fighters. Picard as the leader, and there's a very strong team. The Doctor is pretty vulnerable due to his mobile emitter, and though the cardies are all good fighters and tacticians, Dukat and Garak would be more likely to kill each other then the enemy. Even if we take the three of them at their most cooperative (s4 Dukat, s7 Garak and Damar), it would still be a disaster. I also doubt Archer would be very keen on working with them.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?
I think Garak as a female could work, and most of his story arc could still be done. Shran and Dukat not.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?
Picard/Archer and Doctor/Odo? :rommie:

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?
Data is an easy choice for the endurance. I think Kira for the mechanical challenge and Dzamar for the gross out.

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?
Pre-Xindi Archer was pretty naive, and wouldn't stand a chance. Post-Xindi Archer stands more of a chance, but I still doubt he survives the week.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?
The only way I could see Picard in Dukat's life is if he joined the Bajoran resistance.

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?
I doubt the Doctor would have a problem with Damar. I have no idea of Damar's opinion towards holograms, but I think he would like the Doctor, seeing as the Doctor is basically trying to liberate his people (holograms) too.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?
Kira would never fall for Garak. Even if he weren't a Cardassian, she just doesn't like him. Though implausible, I could see Kira falling for Picard.

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?
Garak > Picard: Ouch. This is gonna hurt to the Federation. Garak would pretend nothing had happened and he was the real Picard.
Picard > Garak: Would likely try to stop Garak from doing whatever he is going to do, but everyone would think it was just Garak up to some trick or another.
Doctor > Kira: Judging from the fun he had when he "possessed" Seven, he would very much like to be an organic. Since she has a great singing voice too, he wouldn't have much of a problem.
Kira > Doctor: She was never fond of holograms. Also, being locked up in sickbay or holodeck all day unless she was wearing the mobile emitter would not be a lot of fun to her.
Damar > Shran: I think he could personally live with it, but I don't think Cardassia would rally to his cause.
Shran > Damar: He could live with it.
Archer > Odo: I have no idea. Talking about Archer switching bodies... I read a very funny fanfiction a while back about Archer and Hohi switching bodies, let me see if I can find it... http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2737989/1/Switched
Odo > Archer: He wouldn't like being stuck in a single form, but he could live with it in season 5.
Dukat > Data: Not as disastrous as Dukat becoming a Founder, but with Data's immense strength it would still be a big problem.
Data > Dukat: Though the choice of the particular person isn't so good in this case, Data would like being flesh and blood I think. I think he would be able to convince his crew that he is in fact Data and he would be allowed to serve in starfleet.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?
Shran, Archer, Dukat and Data. Hmm. I think Shran, Archer and Data would be able to agree on something, possibly helping the victims of the first Xindi attack, but Dukat would be troublesome.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
Odo and the Doctor? They could easily do it, though the ODctor would probably annoy Odo.
 
I'll do a list of random 10 DS9 characters:

1. Julian Bashir
2. Weyoun
3. Damar
4. Jake Sisko
5. Bareil Antos
6. Ezri Dax
7. Zek
8. Martok
9. Brunt
10. Keiko O'Brien

The Questions
Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?

Bashir, Damar, Bareil, Zek and Brunt vs. Weyoun, Jake, Ezri, Martok, and Keiko. As most participants aren't fighters, the main fight would be between Damar and Martok, with Ezri and Bashir supporting. Although Bashir could probably beat Ezri one-on-one, the rest would be rather useless, however Weyoun would be able to come up with some decent battle plans, and Jake and Keiko would actually do something. The Ferengi would be too busy arguing to do anything, and wouldn't anyway, while Bareil is a man of peace. Victory to team 2.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?

Bashir as a woman could work, just he'd probably end up with O'Brien or Garak instead of Ezri. His story arc would be pretty much the same.

Ezri having a gender swap? Been there, done that.

Brunt as a woman. He'd be in some Ferengi home, listening to his husband moan about profits, while chewing his children's food. Serves him right, until the Ferengi Equal Rights movement, unhalted by the non-existent male-Brunt, leads to females being equal, and female-Brunt rises to become a new leader for the new age.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?

Weyoun/Zek: Weyoun would charm Zek and make him think he was talking to a beautiful Ferengi female. Actually, we'd better not go there...

Damar/Martok: Each would have great tales of heroics to tell each other, they'd get on quite well, until Damar went under with the horrendous amount of Klingon honour stories

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?

Bareil would get the endurance challenge, as a vedek, he would have to go through forms of fasting. Jake would take the mechanical challenge, as he's done some engineering, and Keiko works on the other end of the mechanical-biological spectrum. Which leaves Keiko the gross-out challenge. Enjoy! :evil:

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?

Oh, dear. Zek becomes Bashir's boss. Looks like healthcare aboard DS9 isn't free anymore, you'll have to pay for the waiting room. Bashir wouldn't like it, and would probably quit pretty quickly.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?

Weyoun goes into Brunt's life. Aside from having the same voice, they'll work pretty well together. Weyoun would be Brunt's crony and would help him secure Grand Nagus by Season 4. Weyoun would then become the Financial Advisor to the Ferengi Alliance.

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?

They would get the dough, but Bareil would give all the money to Damar afterwards. A week later, kanar stocks on Cardassia are sold out.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?

Bashir and Weyoun both going after Jake? Weyoun would get there first and try to win Jake's heart with all sorts of romantic tricks, but Jake would choose Bashir in the end, seeing as Bashir's more supportive of his journalism, and he's just a nicer person.

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?

Bashir> Weyoun. The Dominion War would end pretty soon after it starts, and the Dominion's foreign policy would change quite drastically.
Weyoun> Bashir. Weyoun would infiltrate the Federation, until he tries something too obvious, like taking out Bajor's sun in a runabout. Weyoun may not think its a good idea, but the Founders order him too, and Weyoun ends up in destroying himself, as the Feds win again.
Damar> Jake. Damar would probably find this new body a quiet peace from his old life, and would carry on as Jake would
Jake> Damar. Jake would learn to grow into his new role as Cardassia's leader, and probably lead a better rebellion than Damar, if that were possible.
Bareil> Ezri: Bareil would resign himself from Starfleet, and go back to his old life, with a different body but he would have to learn to deal with Dax (assuming the symbiont isn't swapped).
Ezri> Bareil: Again, not much here. Ezri would be lost for a bit without the symbiont, but would learn to embrace her new life, only one difference: Vedek Bareil now offers free counselling sessions.
Zek> Martok: Zek gets killed by Sub-General K'Vot within a week. Now the leader of the Klingon Defense Forces is General K'Vot.
Martok> Zek: Martok gets thrown from the Tower of Commerce within a week.
Brunt> Keiko: Brunt would hate being a female, and would probably commit suicide.
Keiko> Brunt: Brunt suddenly develops an interest in flowers, and becomes incredibly bitchy.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?

Charitable? Zek and Brunt? Does not compute. Ezri and Keiko would do it on their own, and they would work to help victims of the Dominion War, by Keiko cooking up plants and herbal remedies for the wounded, and Ezri counselling the families about how to deal with their loss.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?

Damar and Martok would easily make it across the continent and have time to hunt several targs before any deadline hit.
Despite the hatred their races have for each other, each would be too determined on the goal to notice it.
 
Reading these is so fun. :cardie: Cardassia!Version, now with added questions (feel free to make your own and we could all use them XD):

1. Gul Madred
2. (Skrain) Dukat
3. Elim Garak
4. Natima Lang
5. Corbin Entek
6. Legate Broca
7. (Corat) Damar
8. Tora Ziyal
9. Tekeny Ghemor
10. (Danig) Kell

Congratulations, 5! You are now the supreme leader of your people, whoever they may be. You completely control them, and for some reason - whether it be logical or not - they are completely devoted to you. They await your command. What will your orders be?
The Obsidian Order would now rule Cardassia for sure...

Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?
Madred, Garak, Entek, Damar, and Ghemor vs. Dukat, Natima, Broca, Ziyal, and Kell? I believe that Group A would win; there's less civilians (and I don't think Dukat and Kell would get along that well). I don't think the first team would want to swap out any members.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?
Madred, Broca, and Ghemor would probably not have been at as high a rank, and some of these - probably Broca and Ghemor - would be civilians and mothers.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?
Dukat/Damar and Garak/Ziyal. I don't know what to think about Dukat/Damar, but Garak/Ziyal IS canon...

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?
Natima, Entek, and Kell. I'll give Endurance to Kell, Mechanical to Entek, and Natima is stuck with the gross-out.

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?
Damar as Madred's boss? I do not have a clue here. LOL.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?
Well, maybe they could have been on a mission together on Bajor, prior to Dukat being a prefect and when he and Ghemor were still just soldiers? I dunno.

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?
Garak and Corbin would probably agree on it, then one might make the other "disappear" and take the money - all of it - for himself...though I don't have a clue what they'd need it for.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?
Dukat and Madred pursuing poor Natima Lang. XD. Out of the two, she'd probably go with Madred, since he doesn't have a wife.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?
Broca, Damar, Tekeny, and Kell would probably all agree to work together on feeding those who are still starving on Cardassia.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
Garak and Ziyal would be able to do it, and they'd have a lot of fun, too.

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?
Madred & Dukat: Dukat might like Madred's voice, but he'd miss his old one. He probably wouldn't like being in Madred's body, and likewise for Madred, who'd want his daughter back for sure.
Garak & Natima: I don't think Garak would like being a woman, and Natima would probably be a bit creeped out, being in a man. But they'd deal.
Corbin & Broca: Corbin would probably kill the Broca in his body and take his own identity, or use Broca's position to spy on the military.
Damar & Ziyal: I believe this has been covered. See above. :P
Ghemor & Kell: This would be interesting, though I'm not that sure.

5 & 8, 4 & 7 switch into the other's species. How would this change things for them?
They're all Cardassians. :cardie:

Ignoring canon sexual preferences, 7 meets the mirror counterpart of 10, and the counterpart had feelings for his/her counterpart, and shares these feelings towards 7. How would 7 react to this?
Damar finds a very homosexual Mirror!Kell. Congratulations, Damar is now disturbed and will make a run for the kanar.

Congratulations, 6! You are now the Emissary of the Prophets in this reality. How do you feel about it, how does Bajor feel about it, and would you be able/willing to help Bajor?
Broca would probably like it...until the Bajorans assassinate him.

4 becomes pregnant with 9's child and doesn't know how. How will 4 react to 9 when the child is born and looks like 9?
Natima would be irritated with him, but Tekeny would just be confused as to how this happened. He'd help her raise the child, for sure.

1, 4, 6 and 10 are enlisted to help the Dominion (even if they don't want to). They have to agree on one change to make, that won't alter the Dominion entirely. What would they do?
Madred, Natima, Broca, and Kell would increase Cardassia's standing within the Dominion, probably, though Natima would probably secretly be working with the dissidents to get the Dominion out.

5 and 7 end up being arrested for murdering 2. Who will be blamed and why, or will they both take the blame?
The Cardassian justice system means Entek and Damar would be punished for assassination of Gul Dukat regardless of whether they're guilty or not...though Corbin might use his influences within the Order to get him off the hook. Poor Damar...

3 is thrown into the past by a freak accident. They end up meeting their great great grandfather/mother and accidentally kill them. What would they do to ensure they would still live in the future?
Garak would procreate with her, but I don't think it would work too well once he returned to his own time, because the child's father would disappear, literally.

2 is in love with 8, whereas 8 loves 5 (ignore sexual preferences for the moment) and 8 wishes to marry 5. Eventually, they do. How will 2 react to 8 and 5's decision, despite 8 knowing how madly in love 2 was with them?
Gul Dukat is in love with his illegitimate daughter (sounds interesting) but Ziyal loves and wants to marry Entek (lolwut). Dukat surely wouldn't like that!

8 and 10 are driven out of the place they spend the most time in because it is infested with Tribbles. How do they deal with the Tribble invasion?
Kell would kill the Tribbles. Ziyal wouldn't want to kill them...they're too cuddly!

Special Doppelgangers Edition:

1. Intendant Kira
2. Curzon Dax
3. "Smiley" O'Brien
4. Lumba :cardie: (I may regret this.)
5. Bashir. Julian Bashir. 0047.
6. Regent Worf
7. Insane Garak (From "Empok Nor")
8. Mirror Universe Vic Fontaine
9. Weyoun VI (Aka, the defective defector)
10. Doctor Hippocrates Noah (Sisko from "Our Man Bashir")

I'll use Crimea River's latest questions--

Congratulations, 5! You are now the supreme leader of your people, whoever they may be. You completely control them, and for some reason - whether it be logical or not - they are completely devoted to you. They await your command. What will your orders be?
Emperor Bashir. Julian Bashir. He always gets the girl and kills the villain. Being Emperor, getting the girl is no problem. Intendant Kira quickly joins his side. Killing the villain... that's a bit of a tough one. Becoming the supreme ruler and over-throwing Her Majesty's government clearly means he IS the villain. He winds up debating whether that means he has to kill himself to end the simula... err... achieve his mission. He is helped immensely by Intendant Kira who thoughtfully kills him, thus sparing him the trouble of deciding.


Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?
The Odds: Intendant, Smiley, Agent Bashir, Insane Garak, and Weyoun VI

The Evens: Curzon, Lumba (:cardie:), Regent Worf, Mirror Vic, and Doctor Noah

Firstly, the odds "kick" Weyoun VI off their team. That is to say that Garak kicks him off of a cliff. Bashir gets traded for the less goody-goody Doctor Noah. Bashir's happy since being on the even team means he gets to listen to Vic croon. Sadly, Vic doesn't sing Sinatra in the MU. He only sings heavy metal covers of Faith of the Heart. Bashir and the other teammates jump off the cliff to escape this horrible fate.

Odd team wins!

Then they immediately betray one another until nobody is left.

Vic wins!


Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?
Male Intendant Kira - No change.

Female Regent Worf - Shudder. :eek: Anyway, the MU has plenty of female leaders, so it doesn't effect things much.

Female Weyoun VI - I can't bring myself to give a crap what gender Weyoun VI is. And neither should you.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?
Curzon Dax and Insane Garak - I have no idea what might happen, but it certainly wouldn't be boring. :wtf:

Smiley and Mirror Vic - Oh, c'mon. Look at how many ridiculous parings the MU gave us. Ira Behr would probably tell us they ARE lovers. Mourning over his traitorous lover's death might have given poor Smiley something memorable to do in "The Emperor's New Cloak". Of course, then he'd probably hook up with Mirror Lumba :cardie:.

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?
Lumba :cardie:: Gross out. No explanation needed.

Bashir, Julian Bashir: Mechanical challenge. Being a Sixties spy he is already trained to know everything about cars, planes, trains, cranes, computers, tape recorders, women, watches, watches with tape recorders, tape recorders with cranes, cranes with hidden cranes carrying tape recorders with recorded info about cranes, women, buses, space shuttles, shuttle buses, guns, big guns, really big guns, guns with really big guns hidden inside of them, crane guns, women, submarines, submarine cars, submarine buses, submarine space shuttles, submarine tape recorders, women, Incan death rays, Mayan death rays, Maya Angelou's death rays, hot tubs, cars with hot tubs, submersible hot tubs, women, TIE fighters, TIE cranes, TIE women, fembots, fembots that control submersible cranes, submersible cranes that control fembots, laser-guided cheese graters, laster-guided laser guidance systems, women, and planet flooding doomsday weapons.

Dr. Hippocrates Noah: Endurance challenge. Duh. He's a hologram.

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?
Insane Garak becomes the Intendant's boss? See above bit about betrayal and nobody being left.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?
Curzon inserted into Weyoun's continuity? I already did this one in my first post. :lol:

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?
Smiley and Agent Bashir. Agent Bashir might be game to share the money-- Her Majesty supplies him with all the luxuries a spy could ever want. Smiley, however, would just take all of the money while he was busy seducing some sexy French spy. He's got a rebellion to fund, after all.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?
Oh... man. Oh, man, oh, man, oh, man. I'm regretting this already. The Intendant and Curzon... romantically pursuing...

brace yourselves...

Lumba. :cardie::cardie::cardie:

Has your uncontrollable vomiting subsided now? Okay. Let's get this over quickly.

Actually, this is easy. Curzon and the Intendant are probably the only two characters in all of Star Trek that would willingly make love to Lumba :cardie:.

Done vomiting? Good. Sorry to spring that on you so quickly.

As for Lumba's :cardie: choice. She's Quark. Obviously he/she/shklee would choose the woman with Major Kira's body before he'd choose the man with Jadzia's slug.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?
Regent Worf, Insane Garak, Weyoun VI, and Doctor Noah.

Charity? Them? :guffaw::guffaw::guffaw: Weyoun VI, sure. But that whole pesky kicked off a cliff thing would rear its head again.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
Smiley and Mirror Vic. They fail. Smiley can't tinker and putter a horse, and Vic wastes all of the water as he croons Imperial propoganda songs to a mirage.

And I think that's enough for now. I don't really want any more questions about Lumba :cardie:.

Possibly to be continued...
 
Congratulations, 5! You are now the supreme leader of your people, whoever they may be. You completely control them, and for some reason - whether it be logical or not - they are completely devoted to you. They await your command. What will your orders be?

:lol::lol:
 
I'm gonna do another one of these lists, this time with Trek's villains:
1: Skrain Dukat
2: Female Founder
3: Weyoun
4: Khan Noonien Singh
5: Borg Queen
6: Dolim
7: Maje Culluh
8: Winn Adami
9: General Chang
10: Silik

Congratulations, 5! You are now the supreme leader of your people, whoever they may be. You completely control them, and for some reason - whether it be logical or not - they are completely devoted to you. They await your command. What will your orders be?
The Borg Queen as the supreme leader of the Borg? Completly controlling them? NO! IT CAN'T BE!

Divide the list up by even and odd. Which group of five would kick the other group's butt in a tactical exercise? What would be the specialties of each? Would any team want to kick a team member off or trade them for somebody from the opposite team? If so, would that team accept the trade, or say, "No way!"?
Dukat, Weyoun, the Borg Queen, Culluh, and Chang vs. the Female Founder, Khan, Dolim, Kai Winn, and Silik. Though team 1 would definatly be powerful, with all of them except Weyoun being strong, and all except Culluh clever, Team 2 would win. They have a Founder, 2 genetically enhanced people, and Xindi-Reptillians are also very though. They would probably try to trade Winn for either Dukat or Chang, but I doubt the other 4 members of team 1 would accept that.

Gender-swap 1, 6 & 9. Which character would have the most change in their story arc? Which the least? Would any of these characters have to have a complete personality change to be believable as the opposite sex?
Dukat, Dolim and Chang become women. I could see Chang and Dolim as women, and their arc wouldn't have to be radically changed, but not Dukat. Especially the whole Ziyal thing would be much less likely. I doubt she'd actually carry her for 9 months.

Compare the matchups of 2 & 7 and 3 & 8. (Ignore canon sexual preferences for the moment.) Which couple would be more compatible? Which couple would be more plausible to people from either principal's home culture?
The Female Founder and Maje Culluh? :rommie: That's the weirdest idea for a VOY/DS9 crossover ever. Though the Founder shares some personality traits with Seska, I don't think Culluh would be very attracted. Culluh is much like the Founders believe all solids to be, so she would definatly not be interested. Weyoun and Winn is a tiny bit more believable, but still highly unlikely. I could see Weyoun trying to win her over like this to embrace the Dominion, to set an example for the rest of Bajor. There names would alliterate nicely, though.

Your team is 4, 5 & 10. The mission consists of a mechanical challenge, a gross out challenge and an endurance challenge. Which team member do you assign to each challenge?
Khan, the Queen, and Silik. Mechanical goes to the Queen. Seven was a very good engineer thanks to all her Borg knowledge, and she, being a mere drone, only got the things she needed. The Queen would probably have ALL Borg knowledge. Khan is an easy choice for endurance, and Silik, being a kind of icky slimy guy himself, get grossout.

7 becomes 1's boss for a week in some plausible fashion. How's their working relationship?
Culluh becomes Dukat's boss. Dukat wipes the floor with his silly haircut.

2 finds him/her/itself inserted into 9's continuity. As far as anyone other than 2 or 9 is concerned, they've always been there. What role would 2 be presumed to have had in 9's story, and could they fit in without going wonky?
The Female Founder finds herself with General Chang. I think she would help Chang rise to chancellor, and then slowly transform the Klingon Empire into a second Dominion.

3 and 5 will come into a fortune, but only if each can agree that the other deserves it. Would they agree just to get the dough, or would one or both stand on principal and deny both of them the money to prevent possible wrong doing?
Weyoun is a skilled diplomat, and would probably do anything for that money if he needed it, so he could share it with the Queen. The Queen doesn't think Weyoun is worthy of anything other then Assimilation, though.

1 and 2 are brainwashed by a one-time artifact that works even on people immune to mind control to romantically pursue 4. They keep their normal personality, skills and competence level, except any hang ups they might have about aggressive romantic pursuit and sexual preference are turned off. Who would 4 choose, and why?
Dukat and the Founder pursue Khan. That's a very silly idea. I can't really picture the Female Founder romantically pursuing anyone, but she'd kill Dukat if she did and he were her rival. If Khan had the choice, I really don't know who he would pick.

6, 7, 9 & 10 must agree on a charitable pursuit. What might it be, and what role would each take in accomplishing this task?
Dolim, Culluh, Chang and Silik. Neither of them seems like someone who would do charity. Still, I think Dolim, Chang and Silik would agree to use the money to destroy the Federation.

3 and 8 are challenged to cross a continent on horseback together. Can they do it, or will they be fatally distracted by sidequests or their own personality conflicts?
Weyoun and Kai Winn crossing a continent. Both of them could probably endure some hardships, and I think they could probably refrain from smashing each other's head in, but I still don't think they'd make it.

1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 9 & 10 are the victims of an irreversible body swap. How would each react to their new body? How would they pursue their new lives?
Dukat>Female Founder: Ow.
Female Founder>Dukat: She would be horrified to be locked in a single form. I'd enjoy seeing it though, as she really deserves to be turned into the thing she hates most, also for doing that to Odo.
Weyoun>Khan: He would probably consider being genetically engineered by someone other then the Founders sacriledge or something, and kill himself so a new Weyoun can be made.
Khan>Weyoun: I doubt he'd like it very much.
Borg Queen>Dolim: I don't think she could urvive without the voices of the collective in her mind.
Dolim>Borg Queen: Say goodbye, Earth!
Culluh>Winn: He'd hate being a woman, as the Kazon are pretty sexist, and he'd probably be to stupid to do something useful with the stuation.
Winn>Culluh: She could live with it.
Chang>Silik: With those gentically engineered abilities, he'd need no minions to do his dirty work.
Silik>Chang: He'd just contact Future Guy and get genetic enhancements on his new body.
5 & 8, 4 & 7 switch into the other's species. How would this change things for them?
Dolim becomes a Bajoran: He'd have a hard time not losing his generalship.
Winn becomes a Xindi-Reptillian: She'd hate not being able to wear her earring.
Khan becomes a Kazon: Though he loses a lot of his superhuman powers, he would probably still have his charisma and intelligence, and thus would still be a good leader.
Culluh becomes human: His haircut improves vastly.
Ignoring canon sexual preferences, 7 meets the mirror counterpart of 10, and the counterpart had feelings for his/her counterpart, and shares these feelings towards 7. How would 7 react to this?
Culluh would probably not be really interested in Mirror Silik's narcism.
Congratulations, 6! You are now the Emissary of the Prophets in this reality. How do you feel about it, how does Bajor feel about it, and would you be able/willing to help Bajor?
Youch. Dolim as the Emissary. Sounds kind of Ascendant-ish, and I'd advise everyone to evacuate Earth.
4 becomes pregnant with 9's child and doesn't know how. How will 4 react to 9 when the child is born and looks like 9?
Khan pregnant with Chang? :cardie: I have absolutly no idea, and it's another very silly situation.
1, 4, 6 and 10 are enlisted to help the Dominion (even if they don't want to). They have to agree on one change to make, that won't alter the Dominion entirely. What would they do?
Dukat, Khan, Dolim and Silik. I think they can all agree that the Dominion should build more weapons of mass destruction.
5 and 7 end up being arrested for murdering 2. Who will be blamed and why, or will they both take the blame?
Well, even though the Queen and Culluh aren't exactly the nicest people around, I'd love them for killing the Founder. The Queen assimilates Culluh and makes him take the blame.
3 is thrown into the past by a freak accident. They end up meeting their great great grandfather/mother and accidentally kill them. What would they do to ensure they would still live in the future?
Weyoun 8 accidentally kills Weyoun 1. He would just take Weyoun 1's place.
2 is in love with 8, whereas 8 loves 5 (ignore sexual preferences for the moment) and 8 wishes to marry 5. Eventually, they do. How will 2 react to 8 and 5's decision, despite 8 knowing how madly in love 2 was with them?
The Female Founder is in love with Winn, while Winn is in love with the Borg Queen. This sounds like really weird femmeslash. Anyway, Kai Winn becomes the Borg Queen's partner, like she wanted Picard, Data and Seven to be. I think if the Female Founder was truly in love with Winn, this could lead to an epic war between the two greatest powers in the galaxy.
8 and 10 are driven out of the place they spend the most time in because it is infested with Tribbles. How do they deal with the Tribble invasion?
Kai Winn and Silik are driven out of a Temple. Winn would consider it sacriledge and kill the heathen tribbles.
