Herongale's Deep Dark Secret Original Character: Meme Specs
No laughing, Primates!
Also, you can blame Wiccat for this, because it is her fault I'm doing this meme.
General information
1) What's your character's name? Contrail (please note the clever use of an airplane term which incorporates the "con" handle... that's almost as good as a double entendre)
2) How old is he/she? Millions upon millions of years old
3) Is your OC a boy or girl? Girl
4) What's his/her race? Decepticon. OF COURSE.
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? Even assuming that the world in question was familiar with Cybertronian entities, she would be considered striking. She is formidable and yet hauntingly beautiful, a streamlined female robot one block or so tall, whose svelte form is not hampered by any requirement to transform.
Yes, she is a NON-TRANSFORMING transformer. The excuse for this is that she is very, very old.
2) Is your character considered normal in his/her own world? Only if "exceptional" counts as normal.
3) What would be his/her most recognizable feature(s)? an anime-class sword
4) Would you consider your OC as attractive? She's nothing less than stunning. If she were not a blatant fantasy avatar for myself, I'd totally do her.
Personality
1) Temper: Long-suffering, stoic, honorable, kind.
2) Does your character ever get depressed? Depression is a weakness that goes against her Code of Honor, and she'd rather die than admit to any weak, sniveling feelings like that. Of course this means she is depressed all the time.
3) Leader or Follower? Leader of the Female Deceptions, most of whom are currently in exile and/or mysteriously AWOL
4) What is the main aspect of his/her personality? Obsessive need to restore Cybertron and the Deceptions to a state of true glory.
History
1) Does your OC have a family of any sort? At various points in time she has been related to at least half of the Season Two cast. However, the one lasting relative would be Megatron, who is her brother. She might also have a child, but I'm hazy as to whether I settled on this issue or not.
3) Has he/she encountered any traumatizing events? Too numerous to count.
4) What was probably the best time in his/her life so far? Happiness! Ha!
Romance:
1) Single? Tragically so.
2) Has your OC developed any romantic relationships? She used to be engaged to Starscream, back when he was a scientist and before Megatron made him go insane (for reasons I never really settled on)
3) Virgin? No.
4) Does your character like flirting? no. It is not befitting a Decepticon warrior.
Symbolism
1) What animal would you associate your OC with? n/a
2) Musical Instrument? n/a
3) Element? n/a
4) Planet? ...er, Cybertron?
Showing the Love
1) Do you draw your character? Yes... when I was 12.
2) Do you write about him/her? Never have, never will.
3) Do you use him/her in any rpgs? No.
4) What other ways have you appreciated your OC? About the only way I really appreciated my OC was by inserting her into sword wielding fantasies where she was laying smackdown on Autobots, Decepticons, Humans, and/or the Universe for not living up to her many ideals.
RANDOMIZE!
1) Is your character wanted for anything? Megatron wants her dead.
2) What are three weaknesses in him/her? her lingering affection for Starscream, her inexplicable fondness for Perceptor, and her somewhat stalkery fondness for Hot Rod
3) Strengths? She is super fast and agile, a master tactician, and very patient
4) Does your OC drink or smoke (ect.)? No vices other than her undying hatred of Megatron
5) What's one quirk about him/her? She has long shining black hair made of metallic nanofilaments.
6) Does your character have any phobias? nope
7) What could you do to get him/her into a blind rage? Killing Starscream would probably do it.
8) Does your OC like chickens? My OC does not register chickens in her database, I'm sorry.
The Final Question
What would you consider your relationship with your character to be like? She's me: spruced up, prettified, and given millions of years to foment revolution against the evil forces of the world.
Seriously, I don't really turn to Contrail anymore. She hasn't been important to me for at least 15 years. However, there was a time when she and the world around her were a really useful escape valve from the actual world around me, so for that I'm pretty grateful. I know she's a fairly silly, Mary Sueish character, but so what? I still like her a lot.
