WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH MY CHARACTER? (an ask game!)

Understanding a character’s flaws is key to making them well-rounded and believable, so send me a number (and a character, if there’s more than one option) and I’ll tell you:

a trait they have too much of  (ex. too much pride = arrogance)

a trait they don’t have enough of (ex. too little pride = insecurity)

a trait they express in the wrong way

a trait they’re ashamed of

a trait they’re not ashamed of (but maybe should be)

a bad habit

something they do that hurts themself

something they do that hurts others

a reason (or excuse) they haven’t improved on any of the above OR

a way that they are improving on any of the above!

Breeding new strain of Baneling.

Kegling, fosters fermentation of alcohols based on matter consumed. Slightly larger than Larvae.

Living distillery. Bodily processes refined. All extra energy devoted to creation of beverage.

...Extra muscles for "tapping" undesirable, reduces efficiency of energy. Contamination with waste fluids unacceptable.

Devour whole as alcoholic treat.

Quite delicious.

99. If I asked you at age 5 what you wanted to be when you grew up, what would you say?

Perfection.

[empyreanrule]

A Zerg Overlord appears in the sky, broadcasting a psionic signal. "Thiss is a formal requesst... The swarms' master of evolution wishess to hosst a party, in accordancee with Terran standards... Our repository of Protosss cusstoms iss lacking. The evolution master, in addition to sseeking the statuss of intoxication, the evolution master seekss to expand hiss knowledge on Protosss customs. Any who join us will not be harmed, and will be returned ssafely. Thank you."

There is a long pause for a few moments, as if Alarak had no idea what he was looking at. And then..-

“...What? How has this happened?” A snarl came across the Highlord’s features as he clenched his fearsome claws into fists. An unrelenting silence that filled the room had him give a deep, resonating growl before he turned away from the sight.

“Well? Don’t just stand there -- destroy it! I have to deal with some.. incompetence within our ranks.”

79- dogs or cats?

Domesticated animals bred by Terrans.  Dogs, bred for herding, retrieval, scouting, and tracking. Cats, bred for hunting, killing. Possess more unique traits potentially useful to swarm. "Chittering" phenomenon, inspirational. 

Attempt spinning new strain of Changeling, better at instinctively understanding host species language. Dogs, already used to hunting in pack. Cats, may be found in colony, but do not tend to congregate in numbers. Cats, may be of better use if assimilated into swarm and evolved.

[jinarasuggestion]

An Overlord floats down from above, and pats a single claw atop a War Prism and turns its head to look at Jinara over its shoulder. Its mandibles begin to churn out verbalization. "Thhisiissss bayyybeyyy... can fit sssoooo many Sssssupplicantsss in it..." The Salesverlord's first trial has been born.

Well, that certainly is a start.

[abathursuggestion]

Developments will continue.

[jinarasuggestion]

I look forwards to the next iteration.

It has been sent to Slayn. Please Look Forward to It.

…Fine. But I refuse to drink any myself.

Stipulation considered. Understood. Protoss ingestion of fluids still unknown process. Will respect declination to demonstrate.

“Will look forwards to seeing you.” -Statement on courteous hosting supplied by Infested Terran. Supplanting current understanding of social cues. Complex, yet uncertain. Not unlike weaving strands.

[abathursuggestion]

Influx of New Data. Slow. Unacceptable. Bored. Unacceptable.

Accessing Infested Terran Memories. … Information on Terran Beverage: “Alcohol.” Created during fermentation, narcotic substance reduces inhibition. Often ingested as pasttime by Terrans, reduces stress. Reduces boredom?

……….. Calculating Alcohol Tolerance for Organism Abathur.

[abathursuggestion]

Accessing Infested Terran Medic Repository. ....Access granted. Knowledge on “Alcohol” accessed.

Calculations complete. Social environment required. Terran comprehension of activity “drinking” necessitates social gathering. Lack of gathering turns entertainment activity into “depressive” activity. Undesirable.

Accessing “Contact List” from Izha. ...Access confusedly granted.

Forwarding request for social gathering to all available contacts. Companionship requested while 3,538mL of 100% “Alcohol” is consumed.

[abathursuggestion]

All life preys on others. Consume essence. Gather biomass.

Nutrition gathered. From soil. From minerals. From prey.

Wasted essence for non-swarm entities. Cannot process genetic traits of consumed matter.

Infuriating. Extinct strains, never to be collected. Unacceptable.

Recommendation: Prioritize evolution of analytical structures in non-swarm entities. Viral spread of new genetics advised.

Diplomatic relations, tiring. Boresome. Addition of Hierarch Artanis’ genetic strands to Zerg Psionics. Massive increase in potential assured.

Strands’ addition through force, however, impossible. Assimilation of Terran ‘Used Vulture Salesman’ queued. Create better Swarm Sales Pitch with gained knowledge.

Do keep me updated.

Target acquired.

Assimilation successful. Transmitting neurological pathways into single “Overlord” strain.

Sending results immediately for reviewal.

[empyreanrule]

Fools; the lot of you. Don’t you have anything better to do than to play matchmaker? As if I’d have any interest in the First Ascendant, or the Matriarch who babbles on and on of the memories tied to her destroyed planet. 

Ugh. What’s next, the pathetic Phase-Smith? That Talandar machine? The Preserver? And whatever pitiful title Selendis has, that I obviously did not care to learn in my time at the Spear of Adun?

Anyone else? Let me restate this for you; No. Not ever.

Do us all a favor and plunge yourselves into the depths of a nearby lava pit.

[abathursuggestion]

Wrong. Next is organism Abathur.

[abathursuggestion]

jinarasuggestion reblogged your post and added: “Expand horizons. Go to nearby dirt. Discover new microbial organism in…”

That seems unhealthy.

Birth outside of swarm, unhealthy. Can be rectified through assimilation, however.

Assimilation of Protoss genetics, impossible. Hybridization, however, proven possible.

Will expand understanding of strands through all means necessary.

[jinarasuggestion]

I think that sales pitch is better directed towards someone who doesn’t know that being a hybrid is horrible. Have you tried convincing the simpering Hierarch?
