What Discworld character am I?

I'd like to dress as a Discworld character for a party I'm going to.

I have an idea which character is most me, but I can't currently think of a way of doing the costume.

So, which character do you see me as?

Now, try and see if you can suggest an easy way of doing the costume for that character...

No, I am not borrowing [livejournal.com profile] waveney's librarian costume!

You'd make a good Susan because you;ve got the hair. White and black hair spray and lots of black lace would pull it off brilliantly.

My first thought was Susan, too. Second and third thoughts, for once, concur.

I actually love the idea, but Douglas will be at the same party and I would thus find it too mentally painful to go as Susan, even when it is a totally different Susan.

Not that I'm suggesting you remind me of this character in any way but for some reason I see you as tall enough to do Death. All you will need is the black hooded robe and a scythe, if the hood is deep enough you wouldn't need a mask

I have a robe, and a mask, and a scythe (http://www.flickr.com/photos/hawkida/286315221/in/set-72157594350568331/), if you want to borrow them.

Have just started reading Wyrd Sisters again and my thoughts were Granny Weatherwax
"It was one of the few sorrows of Granny Weathewax's life that, despite all her efforts, she'd arrived at the peak of her career with a complexion like a rosy apple and all her teeth. No amount of charms could presuade a wart to take root on her handsome if slightly equine features, and vast intakes of sugar only served to give her boundless energy." Wyrd Sisters page 26.

Except for the Equine everything else fits.

Which character do I see you as? Miss Tick, probably.

You have a touch of Esme Weatherwax about you

Second this, as I'm pretty sure you've got a good grasp of headology.

I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to be the only one to say it. You're not a crone Judith, but there is something of Granny Weatherwax in your personality ;)

Am I the only one ...

... that had a sudden thought of Carrot?

Then Mrs.Vimes (but you don't have the natural figure for it) so how about one of those nice Uberwald people :-)

Well, the Duck Man would be a fairly simple costume, and I think you'd probably fit with being the presentable one in a group of outcasts on the fringes of society. ;-)
