That's pretty nifty! I've tried two names (Sandman and David Hume) and am very surprised at how fast he guesses exactly who it is.

Holy Crap! it got Dr Venture.

I wonder if it could get like, Deckard Cain?

EDIT: AHHHHH IT GOT IT

And deathwing. And Paul Atreides.

I stumped it with Prince Mark from the Books of Swords series though.

It got Rand al'Thor in like 10 questions.

Edit: It incorrectly guessed Richard Cypher from the Sword of Truth. Then Percy Weasley (I don't even know how it picked this one since at least two of the questions ruled that character out). Then Belgarion as its final guess.

The answer was Martris Drayke from The Chronicles of the Necromancer series by Gail Z. Martin.
