Have you done your Golden Compass daemon yet?

http://www.goldencompassmovie.com/yahoo/daemons.html

You take a personality test (which reminded me of the Asperger’s Test a bit) and they give you a daemon.

Unfortunately, none of the questions was about trying to foist one’s religious views on children, so we don’t know exactly what Pullman’s daemon would look like.

    I have to admit to knowing nothing at all about the Golden Compass series, but I got a black cat named Rire as my daemon. What does it all mean? And is there any way to type the ‘a’ & the ‘e’ so they stick together like that?

    What if I told you that there is a book that presents a scientifically based argument that everybody does in fact have a Daemon? Well the book ‘Is There Life After Death – The Extraordinary Science of What Happens When You Die’ suggests that this is neurologically possible. Check out the website above and, more importantly, the blogsite http://cheatingtheferryman.blogspot.com/
    and make up your own mind.

    If you listen to your Daemon it will take you there.

    Yeah, I got an Ermine called Aesop, so I’m rpetty happy. But then I had another go and it came out as a Tiger called Pelloneus – pretty different! So I’m confused.

    To stick the ‘a’ and the ‘e’ together, hold down ‘alt option’ and press the (” ‘) button. It comes out like this: æ
    I love dæmons. I just wish that it was pronounced ‘damon’, instead of ‘demon’. It sounds like they’re talking about devils.
    My dæmon was a boy wildcat called Therolde, or summing like that. I do know that it absolutely was a wildcat. Then again, I did do the test over a month ago…

    Yeah they took down the test after the movie got through theaters. Kind of annoying, you know? Like they were all saying: “Ok, well now that everyone’s had a laugh, we’ll pull it down now.” But that was kind of stupid. I can’t seem to find it either. They seem to have totally revamped their website so the things that were on their before aren’t on there now.
