((OOC: Borrowed memes, because detectives don't steal.))
1) What's the character's name? Kidd
Prefers: If people refer to him as "Detective" Kidd it inflates his ego, but generally he doesn't care.
2) How old is he/she? 15
3) Is the character a boy or girl? Boy
4) What's his/her race? Human
Appearance:
1) If this character were to suddenly become part of the 3D world, and ended up in a heavily-populated area, how many stares would he/she get? Probably quite a few, but mostly because of his outdated attire. If was stuck in the early 20th century, I bet it wouldn't be so bad. Except there are those shorts...
2) Is the character considered normal in his/her own world? He's not "freaky," but he does raise a few eyebrows.
3) What would be his/her most recognizable feature(s)?SHORTS. And the bow tie. His knee socks and hat don't help much either.
4) Would you consider the character as attractive? Aw, he's kind of a cutie, but when I think of attractive he doesn't come to mind first.
Personality:
1) Temper: Kidd is easily irritated, and he has the most horrible arsenal of comebacks ever. He does not get seriously angry very often, but he's easy to set off.
2) Does the character ever get depressed? He's not frequently depressed, but there are times where someone will say something to him that doesn't seem hurtful, and he'll be troubled over it for a while. His self-esteem seems to always been high, but that's because he constantly reassures himself he is the best. But self-reassurance doesn't always work.
3) Leader or Follower? Kidd's overbearing personality tends to either make people laugh at him (usually), or admire him. Following others, especially when they're indecisve and weak-willed, annoys him.
4) What is the main aspect of his/her personality? Kidd acts like a brat, and recevies death threats quite frequently. But he has a good heart and good intentions. He just doesn't always say the right thing.
History:
1) Does the character have a family of any sort? He's a terrible mother's boy and writes to his "mum" about once a month. His father is only mentioned in passing through his entries, and the his whereabouts are unknown.
2) Is the character out on his/her own? Kidd is most likely one of my more self-sufficient characters. He prides himself for living on his own, doing his laundry and paying for all his things. Of course, he does have some close friends, but aside from Eugene, he's a bit of a loner.
3) Has he/she encountered any traumatizing events? As I'm aware of, not really. This fiasco with Sharon has the potentiality to become traumatizing, but it hasn't yet. He gets beaten up on a regular basis, so I don't think he would be scarred unless it were something truly serious. And no, that time when Mitsuba pulled his shorts down does NOT count.
4) What was probably the best time in his/her life so far? Being friends with Eugene. :D Boys need a social life too.
Romance:
1) Single? Haha, yep. >_>;
2) Has the character developed any romantic relationships? Relationships? Not really? Feelings? Perhaps. Most likely. But he's such a stubborn thing, I doubt he'll act on any of them.
3) Virgin? I'd be scared if he wasn't.
4) Does the character like flirting? Flirting isn't manly. Therefore, it simply isn't done.
Symbolism:
1) What animal would you associate the character with? A puppy. XD Annoying as hell sometimes, but if you train him well he can be a good companion.
2) Musical Instrument? One of those put-a-tissue-over-a-comb things.
3) Element? Eh, I'd have to say neutral.
4) Planet? Not that it's a planet, but I'd have to say the moon. It might show many faces, but it's really all the same thing.
Showing the Love:
1) Do you draw your character? A little bit, but he's tricky to get just right.
2) Do you write about him/her? Not really, but I might someday.
3) Do you use him/her in any rpgs? Not as often as Cecile, but a close second. Usually people go to him instead of him going to others.
4) What other ways have you appreciated the character? I assembled an entire "profile notebook" for him on everyone, so I think that counts.
RANDOMIZE!
1) Is the character wanted for anything? Detectives are on the good side of the law!
2) What are three weaknesses in him/her?
1) His mother: Kidd will usually consult his mother before making any big decisions, and if anyone badmouths her, he gets angry.
2) Physical stature: Aside from lacking height, Kidd's pretty skinny. He has trouble doing any sort of strenuous exercise, not counting running away from the people he provokes.
3) Girls: He always says the wrong things as the wrong time, and for a detective he has a surprising amount of difficulty understanding them. They're one of those unsolved mysteries.
He has other weaknesses, among them having a biased nature, lack of social tact, and a fondness for over-dramatization.
3) Strengths?
1) Observation: Although many of the results of his investigations are wrong, Kidd admittedly has an uncanny knack for noticing things. He just doesn't always piece the clues together correctly.
2) Perseverance: I don't think Kidd has ever given up or quit one of his cases. Although, not knowing when to call it quits sometimes can be a bad thing...
3) Predictability: Perhaps this is a bad thing too, but Kidd is often predictable, and the reason why people enjoy picking on him (partly) is because it's easy to tell how he'll react.
4) Does the character drink or smoke (ect.)? His mum would kill him if he did, but Queen spiked his drink once. He's a tactless drunk and just says whatever comes to his mind first, which is often muddled (but wildly amusing).
5) What's one quirk about him/her? He loves to collect butterflies. Visit his jail cell in the game, and there's a small frame with them.
6) Does the character have any phobias? Despite his efforts to be "manly," Kidd's a wuss sometimes. Especially around that NPC bird.
7) What could you do to get him/her into a blind rage? If something serious happened to his mother, his friends, etc. You know.
8) Does the character like chickens? NOT IF THEY POO ON HIS HAT.
The Final Question:
What would you consider your relationship with the character to be like? Kidd hates me because I'm so mean to him. But I promise to help him out with his girl troubles. Someday. For now, I just love watching him and Eugene act like dorks. XP
