My sister is going off to university and I'd like to get her a nice Ultrabook.

6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)? She Plays a lot of indie games so I don't think it matters that much I would say as long as the Ultrabook can handle LoL at fairly good settings at 1080p she should be fine.

7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.) None besides school work and light gaming.

None specific as long as it's in the US.

If you want the lightest and smallest, I think the Samsung Series 9 can't be beat. Probably not good for gaming, but no ultrabook is set up to game. If you can get by on the ULV processor benchmarks for the CPU it has got, it might work adequately.
