Updated Questionaire - Just the Questions.
I've been thinking about updating the OC questionaire for a while. Some of the questions were out of order, others could have been worded differently or split into two separate ones. I think the questions tie better into each other, the way they're organized now. The old Question 3, asking if the character is human, has been removed. :D
Edit: This post should be public, because I intended to share this. x) I also re-arranged the questions a little, because I think the information on special abilities or disabilities, and things that make their stories interesting, should come earlier. All the questions on personal relationships tend to refer to that info.
1: What is your character's full name?
2: What is their gender?
3: Is the character a protagonist, antagonist, or something else entirely?
4: What is their birthdate, if known? How old does this make them during the course of the story?
5: What are their colours, hair type, height and build? Hairy?!?!
6: Any distinguishing features? Tattoos, interesting scars or piercings?
7: How do they dress, accessorize and wear their hair?
8: What is their personality like? Introverted or Extroverted? Polite or rude? Do they have a sense of humor?
9: Are they popular or well-liked? How do they treat people around them?
10: Do they have any special strenghts, talents or abilities that set them apart from most other people? Is there anything they are unusually good at, or has special knowledge about?
11: Is something in particular making their life difficult, like a disability or some kind of lurking danger?
12: What sort of social background do they come from? For example, are they part of a specific culture? Is their family wealthy or poor? Did they grow up in a town or city, in the countryside, the suburbs or elsewhere?
13: How do they get along with their family, whether biological or self-chosen?
14: Which of the other characters are their closest friends?
15: Are any of the other characters their enemies? Why?
16: What do they look for in a romantic partner? Do they have a special “type” they always go for?
17: Do they follow any religion - organized or otherwise, or believe in powers beyond nature?
18: What do they like doing in their free time? Is their taste in culture and entertainment high- or low-brow? Are they part of a special life-style?
19: If they could do anything they wanted in life, what would it be? Is there one particular dream or nightmare that drives them forward?
20: U wot M8?
