I don't know where HIps got this, but I want to do it too! It's good I use like, no tags as Novak. otherwise I"d have no idea what to tag this. lol.
1. A stranger knocks on your character's door in the middle of the night and asks for help. Does your character open the door and let the stranger in?
• What if the stranger is a tattooed, wiry man with blood on his face?
• What if the stranger is a weary-looking old lady?
• What if the stranger is a twelve-year-old child who keeps looking around as though someone
is following him?
Well. Theoretically speaking, as Novak lives in the middle of violent, vicious slum, no one trustworthy knocks on his door. Novak knows when people knock on his door, they don't know him well enough. He prefers when people just walk in. So. If someone knocks, Novak's just going to be like 'fuck, who knocks on damn door?' and ignore it.
If we want to assume Novak lives in a nice normal first-floor aparment in NYC, then we'll answer this, and it's the same for all three, becuase Novak knows people two feet shorter then him that can kick his ass: He asks a lot of questions. What kind of help do you need, why, are you running from someone, why, how long are you going to be here, why, etc and so forth. He really doesn't care if they lie, just as long as all their answers make sense. Besides, if they had time to think of all these things that make sense, he can respect that. Also, he can kick all three of their asses if they try anything, becuase he is a lizardman.
So there.
2. Does your character have any allergies or sensitivities? How do they affect her life?
Well. Novak has very simple digestive system, similar to that of a bird of prey or a wolf. He eats meat and blood and water. I'm going to go all psuedo-sciencey now and say that becuase his system is very simple, it can't handle most of the things that people eat: complex grains and complex sugars (note: no one look this up and tell me i'm wrong, becuase i don't care if i'm wrong, and novak stays this way even if i am). As a result, Novak stays away from basically non-meats: bread, sugary things, and caffeine, which if he were to drink a can of coke, would kill him in less then day. I don't know how this works. I just like it. so, in short: Novak is allergic to grains, sugars, caffeine, and non-meat things.
3. Is your character progressive, using new technologies as they become available? Is she slow to adapt to technological change? Or is she middle-of-the-road, waiting to see if things work but using them as soon as she's satisfied that they do?
Hm. Novak lives in a early-21st century era (vaguely 2050ish), so technology is pretty much at the same level (besides the fact they make vampires, lawl). On this note, NOvak lives in a slum and they don't get any damn technology, so, probaly not. As is, they're rather adverse to using gun and prefer knives or hand-to-hand combact. So, it depends what the technology is: weaponwise, probaly not, though I'm sure he'd love a hoverboard or something like that. Novak loves playing with gizmos.
4. Your character receives a mysterious package. There's no return address (or not one that she recognizes) and he wasn't expecting anything. What does he do?
* The package is unusually heavy and the label is hand-lettered in a handwriting she doesn't recognize.
* The package is a thin manila envelope with a printed label.
* There seems to be a faint vibration coming from the package and it was left on her doorstep.
* The package is large and was delivered through a reputable shipping service.
Is it just me, or does this question smack of The Unibomber?
Yes, Hips, it does.
on a more charactery note: Novak would probaly just tear them all open. He's immature like that. He loves packages. Hopefully he doesn't get sprayed in the face with sharp objects.
5. Does your character enjoy camping outdoors?
He has when he was a (human) teenager, and didn't like it, beucase it put him away from his friends, from his TV, from his sports, from his newspapers, from everything he needed. However, if he were to go as a lizard, I bet he'd like the solitude and do-it-yourself. Hm. Him and Seris and Leyin should go camping one day. That'd be hysterical.
6. Does your character know how to hunt or fish? Is she good at it? Does she do it for recreation or for food?
Hunt. Well, that depends on what he's hunting. He's very good and tracking down and killing things ie. vampires. This he hunts for food and sometimes becuase they'd kill him first if he doesn't get to them. He also knows how to skin and gut them! alive or no. However, he's never hunted a deer or whatever in his life, though I'm sure he could take one down. As far as fishing, hm, probaly not. Novak has never fished as Novak, and although Austin's dad probaly took him out for fishing once or twice (mmm, father son bonding) he doesn't remember how to do it.
7. What is the one major regret your character has about her life so far? Does she plan to do anything about it, and if so, what?
Hm. Well, the one regret Novak will never admit to is that he got in that car drunk and hit and killed someone (which got him thrown into prison, which got him turned into a lizardman). Novak quietly always thinks about what he could be doing if he hadn't been turned into a lizardman. He will, however, publicly admit that he totally misses Nuruu, and him and Seris should not have killed him, even though he was a total shit. And...although he probaly could get a Nexus force to bring him back, he wouldn't do that becuase it's cheating.
8. What one major thing does your character want to accomplish in her life to come?
Right now, he doesn't know what he wants, which is giving him a lot of angst.
9. How does your character want to live out his older years?
Hm. Novak would like to probaly live with people, be popular, all of that. COnsidering the fact that he'll live a long, long time, I acutally don't know.
10. Overall, is your character satisfied with her childhood?
Yeah.
11. Your character has an award someone gave her sitting on a shelf. What is it for, and what are the circumstances under which he received it?
* Is he proud of it or embarrassed by it?
* Does he feel that she deserved it?
Hm. Novak probaly recieved awards as a kid, as he was a huge jock. He probaly has football trophies of all sorts. He probaly also has his own trophies, various skulls and bones of other people, and other peoples' knives that tried to wipe him out. I imagine either him or Seris has Sri's skull somewhere.
12. Has your character ever been arrested? For what? Did he deserve it? Does he feel that he deserved it?
He deserves to be arrested on multiple counts of serial murder, torture, and blackmail, however, due to legal loopholes, cannot. His first (and only) arrest was vehicular manslaughter and a DUI. And he totally deserved it. Becuase he did indeed kill someone and was DUI-ing.
13. Has your character ever struck someone in anger?
...............yes. about...oh, fifty people.
14. Has your character ever killed anyone?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
15. Is your character adventurous when it comes to food? Does he like to try out new cuisines?
If Novak can eat it, he will. His problem is, of course, a lot of foods are off-limits for him. Due to nexus deus ex machina, he can try alot of stuff, but becuase he has to wait till it's digested to change back, he normally doesn't.
16. What is your character's idea of a perfect day?
A lot of sleeping, maybe some sparring with a friend, conspiring. No one trying to kill him. No Jonathan Crane.
17. What is your character's idea of a perfect meal?
Vampire.
18. Is your character an optimist or a pessimist?
Probaly a pessimist, becuase a lot of people he deals with eventually turn out to betray him. See his secret.
19. What sort of sense of humor does your character have?
Very sarcastic, very dry. Novak loves playing practical jokes, and he loves laughing at the misfortune of others.
20. Is your character ambitious?
To an extend. Novak doesn't like dealing with the drama of being the full-out superleader, but he can't stand being given orders, either. He likes being the brawn of the operation, becuase he gets all the good things of being powerful, and doesn't have to worry as much about it.
21. What makes your character proud?
Defeating those who try and kill him, pulling a successful prank.
22. What makes your character embarrassed?
Being pointed out his mistakes and flaws, most of which he's well aware of.
23. Does your character look both ways before crossing the street?
Nope!
24. What method of transportation does your character use? If she drives a car, for example, what kind of car does she drive?
Novak walks. Understreets are too small to drive, plus, someone could blow it up. He also PINPoints.
25. Someone tries to rob your character on the street. What does she do? What is she carrying that the robbers might want? Is it a random incident or was she targeted?
Someone tries to rob Novak, they get killed. Pretty simple. He has some money and knives, but nothing that people would target him for. Also, he's big and strong and has claws and teeth and scales, and anyone who tries to mug Novak is fucking retarded.
26. Does your character keep in touch with childhood friends? Which ones and why?
Nope. Most of the people he knew in high school either think he's in prison or dead. As he's now a lizardman and they knew him as a human, they probaly wouldn't know it was him anyway.
27. Is there anything that can get a smile out of your character no matter how sad or upset he is?
I'd say there are number of stories and (mis)adventures and escapades he's gone on that can probaly make him smile no how deep of shit he's in.
28. Is there anything that can upset or anger your character no matter how happy he is?
Oh yeah. Just think of butchers and their kind and people who've been killed who he likes.
29. What makes your character feel righteously angry?
Butchers.
1. A stranger knocks on your character's door in the middle of the night and asks for help. Does your character open the door and let the stranger in?
• What if the stranger is a tattooed, wiry man with blood on his face?
