OC Meme: Carl Foxmarten
11 years ago
General
I've seen this happening, and thought it might be a good idea for a story-building exercise.
RULES :
1. Pick one of your OCs.
2. Fill in the interview as if you were your OC.
3. Tag four people to do this meme!
4. Tell people that they been tagged with a link from your journal
Note: I don't advocate forcing people to do this, so I won't be tagging anybody.
OC picked: Carl Foxmarten
1. What is your name?
Carl Foxmarten (no middle name as yet)
2. Do you know why you were named that?
Carl is a name phonetically similar to my creator's first name.
The last name is based on species. I'd started out as a plain Red Fox (or just "Fox" for short), then my creator realized that foxes are too generic in the fandom, and as he was listening to the audio version of The Legend of Luke by Brian Jacques, he decided to add Pine Marten (or "marten" for short).
As a result, Foxmarten was born. Though how a Red Fox mated with a Pine Marten I'll never know...
3. Single or taken?
Erm, not sure. Up until recently, I was quite single.
After an incident involving a dragon, a necromancer (or something), and an army of weasels, I seem to have attracted the attention of a certain Foxtaur maiden...
4. Have any abilities or powers?
Nothing further than an ability to create lots and lots of interesting tech.
My hover scooter is a rather useful tool for scouting about...
5. Stop being a Mary Sue!
Who the what now?
6. What's your eye colour?
Brown.
7. How about hair color?
Hair? What hair?
My fur colour is more a reddish brown, though...
8. Have you any family members?
I don't like talking about my family.
9. Oh? How about pets?
No pets for me. The Cross Time Cafe, where I spend most of my time, isn't a safe place for them...
10. That's cool, I guess. Now tell me something you don't like.
Danger.
It's much safer out of battle...
11. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
Singing, long walks through the woods, reading a good book, small theatre productions.
Lately, playing hide-and-seek with the aforementioned Foxtaur.
It would work better if she didn't do such a good job of hiding, though...
12. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before?
Until recently, not intentionally. (I think Mzzkiti finally forgave me for hitting her in the head with a drone when it lost power)
More recently, I had to knock out several guards and tie them up.
If they actually survived the necromancer's appetite, I don't envy them the lack of fur they'll get once the duct tape comes off.
13. Ever… killed anyone before?
*is quiet for a minute*
No. Don't think so.
Not yet, anyway.
Did get close at one point, though.
14. What kind of animal are you?
A Red Fox crossed with a Pine Marten.
Kind of a weird combination, or so I'm told.
Ah well, you can't help who you fall in love with, eh?
15. Name your worst habits.
Forgetting to eat because I'm in my lab working on projects is probably my most frequent bad habit.
Aside from that, probably being too quiet.
I don't always communicate very well, and my usual reaction to problems is to clam up and leave...
16. Do you look up to anyone at all?
Cecil Stewart. He's very tall, especially for a giraffe.
Oh! You didn't mean height-wise.
Um, just about anybody who created some new technology.
Probably Tesla the most, though.
17. Are you gay, straight, or bisexual?
Fully straight.
While I accept that gay guys exist, I ain't interested.
18. Do you go to school?
Had, at one point. Loved the instructors, was fascinated by the material, was bored by my classmates.
How in the world can Electrical Engineering attract such dull students?!
19. Ever want to marry and have kids one day?
Oh yes, very much so.
Well, if at all possible, of course.
Marry for sure, would love to have kids.
20. Do you have fangirls/fanboys?
Nope, sorry, I'm too boring for most furs.
21. What are you most afraid of?
Ridicule. Even the faintest hint makes me want to run and hide.
22. What do you usually wear?
Polo shirts and jeans.
23. What's one food that tempts you?
Oooh, too much choice. I honestly don't play favourites much.
Pizza, Chinese food, burgers and fries, fish and chips.
I won't eat squid, though.
24. Am I annoying you?
Not particularly. I'm still waiting for my CNC milling machine to finish the new frame for yet another of my test projects, so I have time.
25. Well, it's still not over!
I'm answering them fast enough, aren't I?
26. What class are you (low class, middle class, high class)?
Probably middle class.
Though I probably got upgraded to upper class after getting paid for my last adventure.
27. How many friends do you have?
Meh, who counts?
I have friends, that's good enough for me.
28. What are your thoughts on pie?
With or without the final 'e'?
Without, it's an important value that probably needs to be rethought.
With, it's best as apple with a very large helping of vanilla ice cream.
30. Favorite drink?
Jones soda. Either strawberry-lime, or pineapple.
I never did get into drinking tea or coffee...
31. What's your favorite place?
The Cross Time Cafe, though it's a pretty big place.
If I had to be more specific, either my workshop or the space garden.
I should take pictures of the garden and post them so other people can see how lovely it looks...
32. Are you interested in anyone~?
Well, Meri seems pretty taken with me, and I rather like her, so...
33. That was a stupid question.
Then why did you bother asking it?
34. Would you rather swim in a lake or the ocean?
Oh definitely a lake.
Though the ocean does have some rather nice edibles in it...
35. What's your type?
My... type? What kind of type?
I've never had a girlfriend before, so I've no idea about "types"...
36. Any fetishes?
Sorry, that's for me to know and possible future girlfriends to agree to.
(and my eventual wife to deal with)
37. Seme or uke?
What on earth does that mean?
*looks up online*
Um, don't care. Next question.
38. Camping or indoors?
Seeing as the last adventure I was on got rather dangerous when we were camping, I think I'd rather do indoors stuff for the next few months.
But after that, I don't mind either way.
Just so long as I'm not doing it alone.
39. Tag people
Nope, not doing that.
This was more for my own interest, so I'm not forcing anybody else to do this.
If you want to, feel free to copy, especially if it helps you flex your literary muscles.

If I ever do get another character, this'd probably be a good thing to go through for them.
