Other Characteristics

Are they generally balanced or clumsy? Very well balanced due to martial training.
Mannerisms/Poses/Movement: keeps himself straightbacked but not overly stiff. Likes to sit rather than stand, and does so with his elbows propped on his knees, walls, backs of chairs and sometimes other people. Sometimes taps his foot/taps other things as a "bored" gesture. If he's comfortable with the people/area he's in or if he's too tired to care, he dissolves into movement/sight gags and flops over things and hangs there, specifically hanging off of couches, laying on tables and counters, laying his chin on everything. Takes on a kind of defensive PUFF CHEST UP stance if he feels uncomfortable. Specifically/usually for girls he's friends with: has a tendancy to stand behind them, take their shoulders and steer them around/move them back and forth because it amuses him for no goddamn reason.
Describe their walk: ambling and heavy-stepped. Sure-footed.
Habits/OCDs/Obsessions: Mild Xenophilia, traces the contours of cars and bikes. picks paint flakes off of things.
Speech Patterns: Tends to trail off and mumble. Speaks plainly and tries not to get too much muck in the way of what he has to say. The better he knows you, the longer his sentences will be. Otherwise he seems kind of short, snappy and angry, even though he's really more anxious. Stutters and clams up if someone asks him too many questions in quick succession or accuses him of stuff or talks REALLY FAST at him.
Unique phrases/words: so many puns
Do they curse, and if so, to what extent? Mildly 
Write a piece of dialogue that this character might say (can be between someone else): "They're wearing saris. That's hundreds of women dancing around in nothing but apologies." That's only if he's really friendly though otherwise he usually just answers with an impressive rate of being monosyllabic.
Voice: Seems like it would be deeper than it is, it's surprisingly er... alto I guess? For a guy of his size and build anyway. Quiet spoken.
Describe their laugh: usually a chuckle. When he REALLY laughs it's kinda uncharacteristically loud.
Describe their sleep patterns (light/heavy sleeper, no sleep, sleeps too often, etc): sleeps in two bouts, one during late night and one during the hottest part of the day. Heavy sleeper due to Lucid dreaming, but can wake himself up easily if something seems out of the ordinary.
Describe their dwelling/house: ROADHOUSES! Almost like a timeshare... they're tiny apartments set up along big travel routs and you get a key that works on one room number for all of the locations. So long as someone else who has the same room as you isn't using it first, the apartment is yours to use and you pay monthly rent on a flat rate for it/rent to own....? you can't decrate it yourself though is the downside and every one is different.
Describe their bedroom: sleeps on couches
Describe their daily rituals: lays in a sunbeam until he wakes up fully.

Psychological/Personality Attributes and Attitudes

How do they believe s/he is perceived by others? When he thinks the intimidation is working he's glad because he thinks he'd get walked over otherwise, or that he'd be approched by people. I don't think he thinks of what other people think of him TOO often because he's busy thinking of other things and really doesn't care. Unless the accuse him of anything ever.

Does the character seem ruled by emotion or logic or some combination thereof? He's ruled by common sense more than anything else. Sometimes by the emotion of "YOU ARE A FRUSTRATING PERSON I AM GOING TO FOLLOW YOU BECAUSE OF THAT" it doesn't really make sense to him, either 
Most at ease when: Biking, sunning himself on some rock in the middle of bumfuck nowhere

Character/Personality/Mental/Social Flaws: Easily disgruntled/flustered. Social anxiety. Defensive. Takes him a damn long time to get used to people. Kind of a loner, but still fears being alone on some odd level. Loses touch with reality some days. More likely to respond with "flight" than "fight" 
If they could be described with one of the seven virtues, which would it be? Er. Good question, I don't do seven sins/virtues because they're so overplayed.

What would/does this character do if confronted with someone identical in personality? Enjoy quiet company for once. 
What would/does happen if this character became physically handicapped, and how would that change them? Depends on the handicap? If he couldn't bike or even travel at all he'd be crushed. 
What would/does this character do if spontaneously placed in a whole new and unfamiliar environment/country/planet/etc? This happens to him frequently and he does not like it. 
If they don't already, what would this character do/act like if they had a child? Oh god I have no idea he'd be like. Scared he would break it as a baby just be like HHH WHAT DO I DO ERRR... I think with a son he'd be totally clueless, but with a daughter he'd be kind of stupid adorable protective dork dad. WAIT NO I FORGOT HE HAD TOASTERBABIES-- gee thanks amanda

What song best fits this character? How to Disappear Completely by Radiohead 
If you could compare this character to an existing character, who would s/he be and why? He has been called Ghost Rider on several occasions but lol no not really. Someone compared him to Jet from Cowboy Bebop, personalitywise. 
If you could choose an actor for this character, who would it be? er. Someone that's not really all that well known?
If you could choose a voice actor for this character, who would it be? OOH GOOD QUESTION. I uh. Don't know. 
Who/what was your character inspired by? He was created as a spinoff character and was supposed to kinda echo Luke in a way, then he took off in his own direction. He also draws some inspiration from my uncle Martin, I guess, the taiko drumming thing specifically.

How the Character is Involved in the Story

Character's role in the story (main character? hero? Villain? etc): Protagonist numero uno
Scene where character first appears: Chapter two, looking at messed up roadsigns in a "surreal world"
Relationships with other characters: Oddly enough most of the "characters" Marduk interacts with are either ghosts, animals or personified inanimate objects. Vashti(his bike) is like an older sister, Mr. Sandhill(crane-man) is like an old professor/guide/challenger, Tomka(Sentinel/Soldier) is a sort of benign creepy thing/guardian force, Scratch n' Sniff/Brute is his pet lizard/companion through some of his Dreamworld. Luke is his father-figure, Dust is his twin brother, Cadmium Falcon was his boyfriends who died and his relationship with Jack is ridiculously complicated B|
Where, how and when did s/he first interact with other characters: Luke raised Marduk and his brother, and a few people Marduk met as a Biker. It takes him a long time to warm up to anyone. Vashti and Brute are figures from his dreams, but he does talk to Vashti on the road sometimes. He meets Jack when he wanders into Marduk's dreamworldplacething "Arcturus", whereupon Jack fixes his bike, which allows him to "escape" Arcturus
What was this character's life like before something, if anything, happened to change it all:
How Character is different at the end of the novel from when the novel began: No different except he eventually gains "sainthood" alongside someone who makes him facepalm into forever. Maybe a little more anxious, maybe a little more serene. Not sure yet.
