Stolen from snowcalico
1. Choose a few of your own characters.
2. Make them answer the following questions.
3. Feel free to go ahead and add some questions yourself!!
Edit: 4. Also feel free to ask them any questions of your own in the comments. (My own rule.)
Rewind - An early character of mine, almost an alter-ego at times. He's God of Bars And Grills in a world I created.
Trent - In my sci-fi novel that I've been working on, he's a detective with a robotic arm and an unregistered psychic.
Erik - A recently made vampire who used to work two jobs, delivering pizzas and substitute teaching. A strange fluke has made him immune to holy symbols, but vulnerable to unholy ones.
David/Davikton - In the same novel as Erik, he's an immortal mage trapped in the body of a 10-year-old boy who was trapped for a few thousand years in a pyramid in a state of suspended animation.
Who are you?
Rewind - Name's Rewind, god of bars and grills. Want a drink?
Trent - Call me Trent.
Erik - Erik. I know, it's not all that supernatural of a name, but bear with me, I'm new at this. We can't all have impressive names.
David - Isn't that a question for the ages? I mean, do we really know ourselves?
Do you have any brothers or sisters?
Rewind - I'm not sure. It depends on how much Dad slept around before he met Mom.
Trent - An older sister is all I'm aware of. If there were any others, they were sold to traders before she or I were born. Never asked the parents. Never wanted to know. Never went rooting through their brains to find out either.
Erik - No, thankfully. And since my parents are dead, I really don't have to explain my new... condition to anyone.
David - Not anymore, but I think I have somewhere around 1,405,023 descendants.
How old are you?
Rewind - Body of a 21-year-old, sex drive of a 16-year-old and the maturity of a 40-year-old. Unless you talk to my ex-girlfriends. Then they'll probably tell you that my maturity is closer to 12.
Trent - 32. And no, I'm not lying. And you aren't 26. Don't even try to lie on that.
Erik - 24. I told you I was new at this.
David - Depends on which calendar we use. And also, are we talking about years that have elapsed since I was born, years I was awake for, or physical age?
What's your height?
Rewind - Tall enough. I'm a god, do you really think I have a fixed height?
Trent - By old standards, I'm about 5'11".
Erik - 5'7".
David - I swear, I can bend the very laws of reality itself with the old majick, not this new magic nonsense, but yet I can't seem to break sixty qualtors. That'd be 4'6" for those of you wanting it in your "new" measurements.
Are you a virgin?
Rewind - Do you know a god who is?
Trent - Are you serious? Is that some sort of pick-up line? Do you really know someone in this day and age that is?
Erik - I *did* go to college. It's not like I spent my whole time studying. Though if I had, I probably would have ended up with a better job coming out of college. Not that it's a problem now. Spooky vampire powers and all.
David - Before getting trapped, no. Now? Years and years of built up libido and a 10-year-old body.
Who's your mate/spouse?
Rewind - I'm more of a free-agent than the settling down type.
Trent - Well... There is Amy, but she's a holographic computer AI, so she really doesn't count. And she's my secretary as well, so that probably breaches some sort of sexual harassment laws that the UN came up with.
Erik - Well, I am dating a fire elemental.
David - Yeah. Erik gets the hot fire elemental and what do I get? I get a sorority chick who ended up a zombie queen. So yeah. No real mate there.
Do you have any kids?
Rewind - If I do, I'm going to have to visit them to inform them of their quarter-god status.
Trent - I almost did, but... Let's not go there.
Erik - Hell. No. Doesn't look like I'll ever have any either, on account of spooky vampire powers costing me the baby juice.
David - Long ago.
What's your favourite food?
Rewind - Burgers of Wisdom +2, hands down.
Trent - A good steak from the corner restaurant down the street is always good.
Erik - I used to like pizza a lot. Now I tend to like blood right after the donor ate some garlic bread. Gives the blood a nice zing.
David - I used to eat all sorts of meat and food. Now this body craves Captain Crunch.
Have you killed anyone?
Rewind - My vengeance is mighty, and lo shall I smite those who... You know, I can't get the hang of the god-speak.
Trent - Only in self-defense.
Erik - By kill, are we counting supernatural creatures? I've gotten rid of more than my fair share of evil vampires, zombies and the like.
David - My personal favorite way to kill someone is to turn their time inside-out. It may not make sense, but it sure is colorful.
Do you hate anyone?
Rewind - I'm not sure if hate is the right word for it, but I have this holy war going on with Eclypse, the god of night. I mean, I understand why he did what he did, but it still pisses me off.
Trent - Traders. Buying and selling people for use? Nobody deserves that.
Erik - If I did, I probably already would have used my new spooky powers on them. Damn, I love the phrase "spooky powers."
David - Yes. That's all you need to know about that.
Have any secrets?
Rewind - It's hard to have secrets when you have worshipers. Though I suppose the entrance into my bar is a secret. It does move around a lot, after all.
Trent - Nothing that you can find out.
Erik - Well, it's not as if I can go running around telling everyone that I'm a vampire, can I? Though between you and me? I put the fear of God into some of the punks that I used to teach when I subbed.
David - Again, you don't need to know that. If word gets around about me before I'm ready... Let's just say that I have enemies that are also immortal.
Do you love anyone?
Rewind - I did, but she died. Now she's back, but doesn't remember me.
Trent - Strange as it may sound, Amy. Even though she's AI, she's family.
Erik - Eh. I'm not sure. I care about my girlfriend, but love? We've got eternity to figure that one out.
David - Humanity as a whole. Always coming up with new distractions.
What is your job?
Rewind - God of Bars and Grills, though I do like to tend bar and cook when my bar is up and running.
Trent - P.I. Before I lost my arm, I worked for the police. As a result, they tend to call me in on cases occasionally.
Erik - I hunt evil supernatural creatures.
David - I would say that I also hunt supernatural creatures, but some days I feel like my job is protecting the respective asses of my colleagues.
Boy or girl?
Rewind - A god.
Trent - Man.
Erik - Vampire.
David - Boy. Dammit.
What do you do to relax?
Rewind - Take a mortal body and go on an adventure.
Trent - Drink.
Erik - Try to figure out what other powers might be creeping along in my blood.
David - Rain fire down upon unbelievers. What? You don't play video games?
There's a person who's teasing you; what could you do?
Rewind - What *could* I do? I could smite the ever loving hell outta them. But what I'd probably do is laugh at them and give them a permanent case of bad breath.
Trent - Well, I could dig through their mind and find the most embarrassing moment of their existence and hold it over their head. Or maybe I'd just mentally fling an ashtray at them from behind.
Erik - I'd laugh, flash the ol' red-eyes and watch them pee their pants.
David - The only people who tease 10-year-olds are other kids, so there's nothing I can do to them that the school system won't do for me.
Let’s say you have a person who you really care about but she/he doesn’t know about your feelings. How do you tell her/him?
Rewind - I'd just flat out say it.
Trent - Why do you keep asking me about my feelings? Are you trying to feel me out for a job or something?
Erik - Spooky vampire powers. I kid. I wouldn't say anything because the girlfriend would burn me to a crisp if I cheated on her. And that would be quite deadly.
David - I swear, these questions are stacked against those of us in 10-year-old bodies.
What do you regret most in life?
Rewind - I wish I had been able to save her.
Trent - I wish I'd told my parents how much I appreciate the sacrifices and risks they took to give me the opportunities I had.
Erik - Don't have any.
David - That I ever trained that bastard that trapped me.
Do you like your maker?
Rewind - Yeah. We used to be quite similar, but quickly diverged as I grew as a character.
Trent - You know, I wish he hadn't made the world of the future such a damn lousy place to live.
Erik - Well, I could have done without the two jobs in the beginning, but then he gave me spooky powers and a fire elemental for a girlfriend.
David - He's a ripe bastard. But in a good way.
Any plans for the night?
Rewind - A burger, jump in a hot tub with a few Amazons, and then see what develops.
Trent - I'll go down to the club with Daryl. He owes me a couple whiskeys.
Erik - I think I might try to become a bat tonight. I've always wanted to fly.
David - Read up on some history and see what historians got right.
