Character Development Game #2

"When I first met Ulises, he was a total sociopath little shit, and I can hardly remember him crying over anything." - Selena, Rude Boy.

Did you like school?

"I liked school for the most part. I guess I've always been something of a nerd. I like learning things and academia, and I usually like people, so school was good to me, I suppose." -Dr. John Samuels

Is there a moment from your childhood that you think really shaped who you are now? If so, describe that moment.

"I think perhaps yes. It was when my father was killed by a revolt in Mido. I was only a year and a half old, so I don't really remember him. Because of the loss, my mother spoilt me quite a lot. I didn't wish to look like a pansy to all the other kids in the families whose fathers were well alive and taught them all sorts of tricks with swords and such, so I got really cold to most people. I would often break into fights easily. I'm not as hot headed now, but I'm still what people might call cold... And distant." - Daice.

Do you think redemption is possible? If so, can anyone be redeemed, or are there only certain circumstances that can be? If not, why do you think nothing can redeem itself?

[Ignore]

"I try to be optimistic in regards to people and the universe whenever possible. I'd like to think redemption is possible, at least for most people in most situations. I think intentionally harming someone else, especially a child, is where I become less certain of that possibility though. Maybe it's not impossible to come back from that, but it should be damn near that." -Dr. John Samuels

Do you have any ridiculous phobias?

"Well, yes. I don't... I don't like space much. It's a huge scary void brimming with infinite ways to die painfully, get lost, get tortured, break the space-time continuum. It's not so much a phobia as a mild fear, but still, it's not good." - Corey Collier, unposted

Same?

"I'm just too busy with everything else to be scared, except getting caught." Teagon, The Empty Night of Unhealed Scars
Are you really human?

"Yes. Well, at least, last time I checked." -Dr. John Samuels

How old are you? Do you often wish you were younger or older? If so, why?

"I am nineteen years of age - twenty at the turn of blackleaf. To be younger in such a position would certainly spell death, but to be older would hinder: I would have children to keep track of, and I cannot afford to have children in this time." - Matthias, Halcyon

The one thing you truly regret?

"I regret letting Brielle lure me into her and her brother's trap. We had been friends, at least I thought so. When I got lost into the woods after they left me there - I'm still lost. I don't know how long it's been and I don't know how long I can try and find my way out. I hope they got caught. I hope no one else has to experience what I did." - Sam, Undergrowth

How's your love life? What would you change and why?

"My love life is great, but most would probably say 'boring'. I've been married to my wonderful wife now for nearly 15 years now, and I wouldn't change a thing." -Dr. John Samuels

same question.

Myles: "My love life? Ah, it's a treasure. It's been so busy but... exuberant. I've had lovers left and right recently. Honestly, it's like a walk in the gardens with so many flowers bending towards you to be picked, to be chosen."
Daice: "In other words, you're sleeping around with many-"
Myles: [rolls eyes] "Now, now, let's not jump to conclusions."

What trait do you think is your strongest? Is it good or bad? Why?

"My strongest trait? does my right hook count? Ha. I dunno. I'm pretty good at reassuring people, one way or the other. If i want to scare the shit out of someone, its easy enough. and if i want someone to feel comforted, that comes naturally as well. Mostly."

Sammy

What's the most destructive or dysfunctional relationship in your life right now?

"Finn! I swear to god he's killing me. He likes me one day and then he doesn't speak to me for a week?! Sometimes I just want to wring his stupid pretty little neck..and then..I don't know...kiss it?- Sugar, Sweet Like Sugar

What do you have in your purse/bag/backpack right now?

"In my bag? Well...I have a ton of chapsticks for some reason. Oh, and a ton of candy wrappers. Maybe I should clean my bag out...why do I have so many chapsticks? Is that-- Is that a used tissue? Ew! What is this sticky stuff on my finger?! Okay, I should just get a new bag."

Love,
"Midori"

Name a moment in your life-- good or bad --that changed you forever.

"Myles' death. I will lose control of myself when he dies, literally. I'll let myself get possessed by various demons and create many demon armies and go on a massive revenge rage to bring pain to the twat by killing his friend too. I just don't know he will die yet and all. So far I'm a happy chap." Daice.

Same?

"Leaving my home. I am not a hunter, I am a miner and so I stayed within the walls for most of my life. What I have discovered outside is something not worthy of words, so I will leave it to your imagination." - Unnamed, Wake Up

Your deepest fear?

"Probably ending up alone in the general sense. Everyone always seems to leave me sooner or later. And Spiders. *shivers* I hate those little assholes."- Sugar, Sweet Like Sugar

What person has had the biggest impact on your life so far?

"Atlas, most definitely. He made me realize that what I have isn't much of a curse, but a gift in the making. He used to be someone who I would see everyday in class, and now he's saving my life, fighting beside me. He's amazing." - Rayland Harris, Rare

What's the one thing you wish you could change about your life?

"I wish I was born someone of value. Even if I had sufficient Power, I would be useless. Force-growing sugar cane and wheat isn't a life." - Unnamed, Halcyon
