what would your MC do?

I meant as in, what kind of people do they like? You know, like when someone says "he's not my type."

 

Oscar: "Ummm. I guess is Sophie wasn't a bitch she's be fun and interesting to talk to. We could have some wicked debates."
Luke: "Jordan. I miss him."
What calms your MC down most when they're upset?

 

Oh.

Leading hero protagonist: someone who is responsible, spiritual, sociable and respectful of authority

Secondary hero protagonist: someone who is clever and creative, who could challenge him intellectually and who is willing be be challenged

Leading villain (tertiary overall) protagonist: someone who is adventurous, willing to push their limits, and who doesn't have a problem with Bad Guys being tortured to death in horrifyingly creative ways

Leading hero protagonist: praying, having a shoulder to cry on

Secondary hero protagonist: talking about the problem with somebody who can help him fix it

Leading villain (tertiary overall) protagonist: having a shoulder to cry on

When your MC is in a serious relationship, how much does the MC plan for just in case they break up?

 

I'm confused. What do you mean? As in, planning break-up methods? Planning how to move on? Or not planning their future with the person because they're afraid it's going to end?

 

Any of the above. Does your character think about the first (and if so, how specifically), does your character think about the second (and if so, how specifically) ...

 

Oscar: "I think the answer to all of those is "somewhat" You think about stuff in sensible amounts. And that amount depends quite a bit on what's going on."
Luke: "Um, I never considered a break-up with Oscar till in happened. And I guess I'm pretty optimistic about our future, especially now. I don't really know how I'd move on..."
What does your MC respect more; a stupid person who means well, or a clever person who's an arsehole?

 

Lol alot of times people think he's just an asshole cause he's really standoffish to people he doesn't know. As Ozzie would say "Im not an asshole, I just dont like bullshit". (Line from chap 3) (though his fashion is deliberately dorky and not exactly flattering, he likes comfort over style and it keeps most people he doesn't want around him)He strikes other people as a " bad boy" just cause hes kind of serious and soft spoken and smokes (and owns a couple of leather jackets courtsey of James who forces him to wear them whenever they go out to a club or the like). Anyway be gets judged one way or the other and people don't usually see the exterior for the insecure adorable shithead I love.

Ozzie: James would tell you I have a thing for gingers, my ex was one and so is LayLay and he'd probably argue Dante's one too just cause pink's a variation of red or some shit. As for romantic type? *shrugs* Fuck if I know.

Ozzie: Lydia's pretty cool. She knows how to get to people. It's kinda nice really.

If your MC had a personality flip for a day how would they answer the question that their dog just died?

 

Ozzie: Def the latter cause I can relate.

 

I don't get that question. How do I decide what the opposite version of them is? I see multiple potential answers and it's all a bit too complicated.

 

What type of protagonist is your MC? Is s/he proud of what they're doing? Are they forced/coerced into it through some sort of event? Are they even a hero?

 

Oscar: "I don't believe in heroes. We're all just people in the end, aren't we? I would call myself a good person though. And I'm definitely no slave or minion. Aggressively individual over here."
Luke: "I think I'm nice. And I like being nice. And I do it because I want to."
Is your MC organised or disorganised? Are they more organised with certain things?

 

Ozzie: My computer is organized. I've got folders in folders in folders on it. That's about it. My room's lived in.
James: More like a fucking sty.
Ozzie: It's not that bad.
James: Suuure it's not.
Ozzie: My comic collection's organized.

 

What does your MC do for a job? Do they have one.

 

Oscar: 'I'm a playwright. And I'm an activist as a hobby."
Luke: "I'm a fitness trainer at my local gym. Want a membership?
Why does your MC hate their worst enemy?

 

Ozzie: My worst enemy is an organization run by a primordial force. I don't hate the people, I don't even really hate what they stand for.

Your MC sees their death. How do they react?

 

Oscar: "How am I dying?"
Luke: "Yeah, it depends on what's going on, doesn't it?"
Oscar: "Are you looking for some sort of "I accept my fate" or "I change my fate" kind of spectrum? Okay, why would I care about "destiny?" If I see torture, I'm going to try to avoid that."
Luke: "Who would want to torture you?"
Oscar: "Some crazy right-wing Christian bigot or some-such might be tempted. You know I've seen some shit. I'ts waiting out there."
Luke: "Stop making me want to hug you all the time."
How free is your MC with physical affection (e.g. hugs) and how comfortable are they receiving it?

 

Lol, went back and edited a bunch of my past posts for grammar. Only problem with this thread is I'm always tense and eager for the next question/answer. Leads to typos. Not that I'm blaming or faulting it, it's on me and I can deal with it.

 

Ozzie: I'm actually pretty tactile once I get to know . I have some er minor abandonment issues so touch helps.

Does your MC punch first ask later or is your MC a let's talk it out and not do anything hasty kind of person?

 

Oscar: "I negotiate on occasion. But I also enjoy employing sass. "
Luke: "Talk to people, definitely. There are more good people than bad people. A lot of people just make bad choices. Have bad lives and feel angry, or disappointed. They have compassion too."
Oscar: "You've been practising that, haven't you? In fact, that sounds a bit like something I said once."
Luke: "...Maybe."
How does your MC feel about religion? What are they're beliefs?

 

Slipping in another MC from another project I keep on the side burner here.

When does your MC tend to listen to music?
Jonas Shade: I`ll turn the radio on in the car sometimes, especially if it`s a long ride. My job requires quite a bit of paperwork and red tape, so I pop in my earbuds and listen to some tunes to cut through the tedious stack of forms.

Does your MC like watching sports?
Jonas Shade: I don`t mind watching a game of football but I don`t follow it, or watch every game. If im home and it`s on, fine but I'm not going out of my way.

When your MC is in a serious relationship, how much does the MC plan for just in case they break up?
Jonas Shade: Heh, haven`t really had too many serious relationships if I'm being honest. Though if I did go that far with someone and we did break up I'd just be pissed, wouldn`t really plan for it.

What does your MC respect more; a stupid person who means well, or a clever person who's an arsehole?
Jonas Shade: The stupid person may mean well, but if he`s going about it stupid he` just gonna muddle shit up. The clever guys fine, so long as he stays out of my way. They`d both annoy me honestly.
Volgar: Somone with a good heart and values vs some arse who thinks he's smarter than anyone else? Is that meant to be hard? The second one should be punched in the gut.

What type of protagonist is your MC? Is s/he proud of what they're doing? Are they forced/coerced into it through some sort of event? Are they even a hero?
Jonas Shade: Me a hero? Heh, I'm just doing my job. I`m I proud of it? It`s better than the crap I did in my youth I suppose. It`s a good job, doing good things. Some would call me crooked but I'm just doing what I need to, jobs not easy even without my circumstances.
Volgar: Me a hero? No, I don`t see myself that way. I try and hold myself to a certain code of conduct and honor, but I'm not out fighting for justice just fighting through life.

What does your MC do for a job? Do they have one.
Jonas Shade: Special agent with the DEA.*
Volgar: I`m a trained blacksmith but I mainly work as a mercenary. Though if the guys can get me a forge setup I can work on are equipment without having to waste money on some smith in a crossroad town.

Does your MC punch first ask later or is your MC a let's talk it out and not do anything hasty kind of person?
Jonas Shade: I`d love to punch first, sometimes I do but I also need to think of the job. Punching first won`t always get us the information we need, so I weigh it on the situation. Sometimes the right punch can get you the intel but that's not exactly protocol.
Volgar: Depends on the situation, some can be resolved by negotiating and thinking, others you need to go in swinging...tactically of course.

How does your MC feel about religion? What are they're beliefs?
Jonas Shade: I don`t really have much of a rlegouis view point. I suppose I'd count as agnostic, we really don`t know whats out there. It`s above my pay grade, that``s about all we know.
Volgar: I don`t adhere to any real relgoin, but I have kinda adopted the Dwarves pragmatic way of philosophising. Take certain tenets you want to emboy and apply them to life. Honor,loyalty , respect, and etc.

*Drug enforcement agency

How does you`r MC feel about their current lot in life?

 

Oscar: "Life's pretty great right now. I have a nice house, I'm publishing a book, most of my issues are in a good state right now, and I'm an great relationship, with great sex."
Luke-(blushing) "Yeah, I think Oscar got everything."
What's the weirdest thing that ever happened to your MC?

 

Ozzie: I walked in on James in half drag once. That was pretty weird.
James: I was fab man. And it was for the stripper role.
Ozzie: Uh-huh

What's the weirdest food combination your MC likes ie: Ozzie will eat french fries dipped in caramel

 

Oscar: "I do the burger/hot chips thing, and some people find that weird."
Luke: "I've done some... interesting breakfast smoothies."
Does you MC have any bored fiddling habits or nervous tics?

 

James: Move aside Oz, you've got a LOT of those. The figure tapping/circling thing you do hen you're nervous. The lip licking when you're focusing on something and you have a really bad habit of trying to make yourself seem smaller than you are.
Ozzie: *opens and closes his mouth* Fair enough.

Fun fact about your MC can be anything

 

Fun fact about your MC can be anything

Xiana: "Fun fact, huh? Well, if I'm not being judge then... 'I honestly have no idea what a human looks like'. I heard they're like hairless monkeys, except they don't climb trees or stuff like that. Matter of fact, I heard some just sit around and do something called 'surfing the web'. I mean... how do you 'surf a web'? Do they, like, gather all the spiders they can find, collect their web and... 'I don't know'... ride on it? BAHH, humans are weird."

What's your MC's favorite type of music and why?
