Character Interview- Scarlet
10 years ago
General
The following serves a few functions: Character development, if needed, or just a fun activity to pursue involving your OC. Some guidelines to follow:
1. Answer the following questions from your character's point of view. As such, the answers should be written in a first-person ("I") format.
2. Feel free to throw in your own answer, if you feel that the answer is incomplete. Yes, you, behind the fourth wall.
3. Since this is supposed to be fun, I'd prefer it if you and your character could minimize the bad language, so that everyone can enjoy these.
4. Have fun. Otherwise, there's really no point. Get into your character's head and have at it!
5. Anyone can use this template. But, please, make sure to reference the source. If you don't...
6. Begin.
Character's Name: Scarlet
Part I: Let's Start at the Beginning...
1. What's your name?
Scarlet
2. Give me your full name...
Scarlet Johanson.
-is nudged by her boss.-
All right, all right. Scarlet Tanathas.
3. Do you have a nickname? If yes, what is it and how did you come to have it?
"Hey you!" seems to be a pretty common one. So is "The red one".
4. What species are you? (Human, werewolf, etc? Or are you an alien?)
I'm a skylion... yes, that's really what people in the alliance call us. I'm an alien that resembles a bipedal gryphon.
5. Where/when were you born?
I was born on the Skylion homeworld, Hada. The day of your planet's calendar that would be the equivalent of it would be November 17th.
6. I see. And that would make your age...?
Never ask a lady her age!!!
(Traci's note... she's 29.)
7. Okay, now...are you a good guy, or a bad guy?
What the hell kind of question if that?! Hardly anyone would admit to being a "bad guy" unless they were a total psychopath! Everyone if the hero of their own story. As for me... I'm just... me. I save the universe, but the job sometimes requires doing some horrific things in the process.
Part II: Tell Us More About Yourself...
8. How would you describe your personality?
I don't know how to answer that... Um, I'm serious minded yet laid back and easygoing. Snarky as all holy hell.
9. Would you say you're someone who can handle pressure?
I can wrestle a mi-go with my bare hands... I'd say that I can handle pressure.
10. Do you like to read?
I don't particularly like to read, but I have to read and write quite a bit in my career.
11. Favorite color?
Cinnabar, ruby, russet, sanguine, brick, blush. So in other words... red.
12. Do you get along with others?
I'd like to think that I do. As long as they don't piss me off.
13. Do you have any enemies?
Pretty much most of the things that live in the infernal plane.
14. How about friends?
Sayuki, Noah, Joe, Ashur and Aetius (my boyfriend).
15. Are you patient?
To an extent, yes. It also depends on what I'm waiting on.
My boyfriend being late to my house because he's stuck in traffic... fine.
Waiting an hour and a half for service at a restaurant... oh hell no! And don't expect a tip!
Part III: Hypothetically...
16. Suppose that you could become any creature you know of. What would you pick, and why?
I'm pretty happy with who I am... I'm of an intelligent species and I can fly, so I couldn't ask for much more than that.
It may be fun to become a demon or dragon for a day to reign fire down on my enemies, though.
17. One of your enemies in question 13 just complimented you. Response?
Ummm.... Thanks?
18. One of your friends in Question 14 just insulted you. Response?
Oh, they'd get the glares. In the case of Aetius, I may withhold sex from him if he insulted me bad enough.
19. If you could change anything about yourself...
Eh, I'm pretty happy with myself.
20. About your home...
I actually live in a decent apartment in the Cloudy Mesas area.
Part IV: Now We Get Personal
21. What're your parents like?
No complaints there. My father was a seeker just like I am. He taught me all I know about the unseen worlds. I was a bit of a daddy's girl!
My mother was not in the profession but wanted to keep us out of my father's profession. Didn't work too well.
22. Do you have any siblings?
Yes, two twin brothers who are also seekers.
23. What's your occupation?
I work at the P.R.O.S. agency. That stands for "Paranormal Research of Occupied Space".
I specialize in cursed objects, and I am a "seeker", that tries to acquire said objects to keep them out of the wrong hands.
24. I see, that's a good job to have. Do you like it?
Yes. I get to be the hero.
25. Are you seeing/dating anyone?
Yes, Aetius as I've previously said.
26. Thinking about getting engaged, married, other?
I'd like to get married. It's just not the right time.
27. Tell us your biggest secret.
Mostly the fact that I keep my job secret from my boyfriend. He thinks I'm a "public relations" officer for a major company.
28. Your worst fear? You don't have to answer this one if you don't want to.
Ugh... that guy who dresses like a faerie.
Also, f*&^ing Shyguy! That guy creeps me out to no end!
29. Favorite food?
Pie. Any flavor. My favorite flavor of pie is pie flavored.
30. Favorite drink?
Anything from Starbucks. It tastes even better if I make the intern go get it.
31. Tell us one thing you're the most proud of.
Um, I don't know. The time that I kept Joe out of my lunch box by rigging it with mouse traps?
32. Something embarrassing? You don't have to answer this one, either.
Always getting my lunch stolen by Joe.
33. If you didn't answer Questions 28 and/or 32, tell me why.
I... did answer them.
34. Is that a good reason?
I don't know, you tell me!
Part V: Breaking the Fourth Wall
For these next few questions, I'll briefly remove the fourth wall between your world and your creator's. Try to remain calm.
35. Before I remove the fourth wall, tell me: would you be willing to accept the fact that you're actually a character?
Uhhh... yeah. Except for the brief lifetime that I spend in the physical world, I am well aware of that fact.
36. Now the fourth wall's gone. Response?
--Facepalms--
37. This is your creator's world. What's the first thing you notice?
It's like the stone age! Where are the space ships? The alien species?
38. You just met your creator! First impression of him/her?
I've known Traci since I was born. She is good to me and I love her.
39. Okay, let's put the fourth wall back. See, that wasn't so bad, was it?
--Crosses arms and glares--
Part VI: Closing
40. Are you satisfied with your life?
I have no complaints about it if that's what you mean.
41. Anything you feel like you have to do? It can be something long-term, like a bucket list, or something you need to do right now.
Get married, never have kids, keep doing what I'm doing with my job.
42. Any hobbies?
Video games.
43. Quick, you get one wish! What did you just wish for? It's alright, you can tell me...
For this pointless interview to be over.
44. How would you describe that wish? Good? Bad? Selfish? Selfless? Other?
Oh, so totally selfish.
45. Have you been honest with these questions?
--rolls eyes-- Yesssssss, mommy!
46. Your personal quote?
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
47. Do you like change?
I do. Change is a necessity for things to evolve and grow.
48. What's your most valued possession?
The promise ring Aetius gave me.
49. Anything else you feel like sharing?
If plan A doesn't work out, you still have 25 letters left.
50. Last question!...yup, that's it! How do you feel?
--Scarlet has already ran off--
1. Answer the following questions from your character's point of view. As such, the answers should be written in a first-person ("I") format.
2. Feel free to throw in your own answer, if you feel that the answer is incomplete. Yes, you, behind the fourth wall.
