    Whether you are here to read this post or not, I'll answer this and hten post a question to keep the ball rolling.

    1) When I posted my answer about killing a groundhog I had only read your latest post at the time and assumed you were talking about Groundhog Day, the holiday.

    2) You were spamming the boards because you were ignoring everyone else's posts, thrusting your own question repeatedly in front of other people, and acting like a snotty little kid that tries to cut in line. You could have asked the question again later. When it was your turn again.

    Please grow up.

    What is your MC's second fondest memory?

    Really guys? You are offered one of the better questions in quite a bit and just toss it away? Why not answer it?


    Well I'm going to answer it then.

    Jason would have a bit of fun with this at first. He would go around the city making money. One one day he would observe a bunch of stuff that happens in a particular area. If something of interest happens he will use this on his next repeat and try and make money off of it.

    He would also probably do a bunch of stuff he wouldn't normally do. Jason likes to keep a low profile, just blend into the crowed. So he would probably do something that puts everyones eyes on him.

    Of course he would be tempted to actually kill someone. If there is no end in sight to the repeats he could kill everyone and just start over.

    Also on some days he would spend any money he made/stole and just buy a bunch of crap or get it all and throw it off a building or gather it in one spot and burn it all.

    Of course he would then spend some time catching up on his reading.

    Eventually he will get annoyed and bothered by it all and will try and find a way to fix this.


    What is your characters biggest pet peeves?

    Just to wrap this up from the buffoonerous last five hours/three pages, I'll answer both open questions.

    Ryll's "second fondest memory" would be hitting an apple the first time in training with her bow and arrow. She rarely thinks about her fondest memory because it is also her worst memory.

    Her biggest pet peeve would be people who ask redundant questions, or people who constantly repeat the question. (Common sense is a natural trait of the half-elf side of her.) Her personal protagonist knows this pet peeve and does it anyway, just to taunt her. He never does hook up with her, despite the flirting.

    What is your MC's favorite form of exercise?

    Depends on her mood. Most days, being a massive baseball fan, Taylor will grab her favorite bat, don one of her many Cardinals jerseys and proceed to humiliate anyone who happens to be at the nearest ballpark, batting center, etc. "Humiliate" meaning outperform them in pretty much every way. But if she's ticked off or feeling like doing something productive, she'll grab that same bat and go hunting for demons. Either activity involves copious amounts of bludgeoning, which is okay in Taylor's world.

    A clearly mad scientist runs up to your MC, brandishing a rather unfriendly-looking piece of lab equipment, and says "I'm going to put my quantum harmonizer in your photonic resonation chamber!" How does he/she react?

    (Bonus points to anyone who knows where I got that, and negative points to me if it's been said before. I don't have the patience to read the entire thread.)

    "I get zero points," Jeremiah says. "I don't know where you got that from and Christopher will not tell me. But he would tell me what the hell that crazed man was talking about if this really happened."

    What does your MC think of one night stands?

    He partied all night with Carla and took a drink with her. As for his girlfriend, who broke up with him, he would probably accept Carla's invintation for having a "coffee" night. Now that he was having fun, he can no longer keep his mind on the miserable life he left behind in California.

    If your main character was alone in land swamped in quicksand, how would he/she survive?

    Kat would find some way of escaping. Not to sure about Michal, though...

    Would your MC work at a 7-11 with 15 super-annoying regular customers for a week, and in return he/she would get his/her boyfriend/girlfriend?

    Taylor could never operate in such a subservient role. Regardless of the reward, if she has to take orders from someone on a regular basis, she's going to rebel in a spectacular fashion. The annoying regulars would probably end up in an ICU for several weeks.

    A longtime rival has seriously embarrassed your MC in front of a large group of people. How does he/she take revenge?

    If Seifer was embarrassed in front of a crowd by a rival.

    This is an Evil MC, and he can use magic.

    "How dare you insult me in such ways! I will beat you like the dog you are!" Seifer Yelled at Zarek. "Oh ok, but before we start, what's your safe word?" The crowd let out snickers here and there. Seifer's fist clenched almost airtight. A flame burst around his hand. "You people think this is funny!? I'll show you funny!" His arm extended outward letting his fingers stretch. The flame was burning immensely from his wrist to the tips of his fingers. "Yay! Street magic!" Zarek joked. The crowds laughs grew louder. Seifer reached out his other hand and grabbed a member of the crowd. He moved his flamed hand slowly towards the mans face. "Seifer stop!" Zarek called out. "What I thought you wanted to see something funny, because this is hilarious!" Seifer said as he pressed his hand down on the mans face. The crowd dispersed in screams of terror now while only one man laughed. Seifer.

    Sorry it was so long. :/

    What would your MC do if he/she lost their clothes?

    Jenny: Al, where are my clothes?
    Al: I don't know...
    Jenny: Honestly, where are they?
    Al: I have no idea, Jenny. You are the one with the photographic memory, aren't you? Shouldn't you remember where you put your clothes?
    Jenny: Actually I should, but somehow i don't....
    Al: Don't worry, honey. Here you are, take my shirt, I don't want anybody but me see you naked.
    Jenny: Thank you *puts on Al's shirt* I am a little worried 'cause I can't remember...
    *Anik comes taking Jenny's clothes*
    Jenny: Anik, you found my clothes?! Thank you sooooo much :* xoxo

    Your MC finds out that he's adopted. How does he react?

    No reaction from both.
    Kat:That's cool, I have such a horrible family now.
    Michal:Mmmhmmm, not now, I'm busy.

    Your MC just found the book of life, capable of doing anything. What does he/she do now?

    "I can do almost anything anyway," Jeremiah says. "Well, almost anything. Christopher is pretty controlling."

    What does your MC think is the worst job ever?

    Probably lawyer or politician. It would be totally incomprehensible to her.

    Your character finds something unexpected in their pocket. What is it?

    Leon reached into the side pocket of his tattered, snow-flaked trenchcoat, grasping tenderly for his last spliff, lest he mangle it, when his fingertips grazed something small, smooth and as ice cold as the frigid winter air. "One last shell..." He whispered, as he pulled the bullet from its place and with gentle solemnity, loaded it into the battle-scarred cylinder of his .38, alongside 2 others, gleaming like tiny, brass suns in the lone porchlight of the shack-like saloon, amidst the otherwise abysmally black night.

    No civs would be out this time of night, and he had only just arose from an inconspicous snowbank after evading the last patrol of the hour in this part of the slums - he'd have atleast 20 minutes to get in and out. He needn't worry about being spotted, atleast for now.

    "I miscounted my shots" he thought to himself, as the adrenaline-drunk blur of the gunfight the night before flashed through his exhausted and meth-addled mind, his heart pounding from the mere thought of the fight before and of the one beyond the doorstep ahead.

    "Better to over than undercount..." A fleeting smirk of fragile contentment graced his grim, precombat facade. His odds were atleast 50% better - he could afford to miss once, or another chance if the 1st 2 shots were less than fatal. He was still at a disadvantage, especially if there were more than the 2 targets reported, but the find was serendipitous, nonetheless.

    Anything more and he'd have to draw his bowie and close the gap...



    What would your MC choose: Power, knowledge or happiness?

    Socrates, Nate, and Angus: HAPPINESS, all three have had considerable measures of power and access to amazing knowledge in their lives each of them values those small contented moments.

    Your MC's heart starts pounding, feeling butterflies in their stomach, they are shaking, they are struggling to breath - what is happening ?

    Tough one. Kat's enemy, Minus, would probably be trying to kill her again.
    Your MC just found a gnome in his/her pants. What does he/she do now?

    "Find it a home," Jeremiah says. "It is the least I could do."

    Your MC is in the subway and sees someone being picked on by two twelve year old's, what do they do?

    Socrates: Turn into Cobbley the Swan and herd the boys away honking.
    Angus: I'm 6ft10 and built like a behemoth - them boys can pick on me.
    Nate: Hmm guess I can't break their necks, probably kick their butts.

    What does your MC dream about ?

    My MC Zarek would probably dream about his past girlfriend that he had to leave.

    My other MC Cerrus would probably dream about his haunting past.

    My evil MC Seifer does not dream for he never sleeps.

    What would your MC do if they were drunk?

    Socrates: Sleep with someone he shouldn't - his favourite alcoholic drink is called Port Red and it also acts as an aphrodisiac. When Nate wasn't around to get the benefit he proved to be quite a loverat.

    Angus: Gets into fights usually with Socrates (one memorable incident took twelve soldiers to seperate them and both ended up hospitalised) or the Chief Captain Jack Sorenson of the Soaring Warriors (mind you he doesn't need to be drunk to get into a fight with Jack).

    Nate: Puts music on and dances with his pants on his head, assuming Socrates hasn't been on the Port Red.

    If your MC had to row a boat a long way, who would he take with him to help ? (his team can have three people in it)

    Alexis would be forced to take his bodyguard, Melissa, with him. She wouldn't let him row alone. In fact, she'd try and row the boat herself, and only after much argument let Alexis row to relieve her. He would also take his friend, Madison along too, if anything to distract him and Melissa with her constant babbling of all things scientific. She could also help with steering by keeping one hand on the tiller.

    Your MC(s) take a cruise through space at 99% the speed of light. Unfortunately, when they return home, they've found several hundred thousand years - if not a million or more - have passed since thier departure. Will they decide to land and explore the changes to thier old home, or will they press on in search of a new one?

    Captain Ford looked at the radar on his ship, baffled at the lines of static rolling across it. Earth was no longer the dilapidated overused wasteland he once knew; instead, his sensors were picking up sparse farms and small cities covering most of the land. Intrigued, he checked the fuel state of the Dragonfly, ensuring he had enough to launch from the planet and make another jump through hyperspace, or hopefully a hypergate if the one in Sol still existed. Picking the point on Earth he used to call home, now millennia ago, he eased the nose down and began slipping through the atmosphere.

    Zarek's eyes are brown.

    Cerrus' eyes are blue.

    Seifer's eyes are red.

    Your MC is stranded in the middle of a desert. What does he/she do?

    The natural world favors Taylor in a way that most would consider unnatural. An hour after realizing she was stranded, an unseasonable rain would wash the area, creating ample pools of water. Shortly after that, she would just happen to stumble upon a selection of fruit-bearing plants that are just about ripe. There would be enough food and water here for her to survive until one of the many people looking out for her came to take her home. So in short, she wouldn't have to do much of anything except wander around; the problem would take care of itself.

    Your MC finds a diamond ring at his/her table in a restaurant. There is no engraved name, but there might be a record of who was last at this table with... the person who keeps track of reservations. :confused: What does he/she do with it?

    He wouldn't care whose it was. On a whim, he'd probably decide to give it to his girlfriend, until he remembered that it's a ring and she'll think he's proposing. That being the case, he'd probably throw it away, or try to sell it, depending on how much he wants the cash.
