OC Questions - Personal Principles
1. If your OC came across sensitive or important information, what would they do with it? How would they react to finding out about it in the first place?
1a. If the information concerned/involved someone they knew, would your oc choose to tell them about it? How would they do so?
1ab. Is there any situation in which your oc would hesitate to or refrain from telling that other character? Why or why not?
2. If someone asked your OC for their honest opinion on something, would they give it?
2a. If there is a situation in which your oc would hold back or otherwise answer with a lie, are there situations when they would tell the truth? If so, how do they come to that decision?
3. How honest or dishonest is your oc, generally speaking?
3a. Is there anyone with whom they share their honest opinions in confidence? What is their relationship, and what is your oc's motive in keeping these things hidden from other characters?
3b. Alternatively, is there anyone with whom they are primarily or exclusively dishonest? What is their relationship, and what is your oc's motive in hiding things from them?
3c. If your oc is the 'brutally honest' sort, is there any consequence (socially or punitively) that would compel them to keep quiet about something? How well would that go?
3d. If your oc is the type to keep negative thoughts to themself, is there anything that would compel them to speak up or say something harsh to someone's face? What would the aftermath of that look like?
4. If your OC wanted to impress someone, how would they attempt to do so?
4a. If their attempt fails or backfires, how would they react? Would they give up or try again?
4b. What would make your oc want to impress someone in the first place?
5. Is there a line your OC will not cross, morally or preferentially speaking, in pursuit of something that really matters to them? If there are many such lines, what are they?
5b. If your oc is the type to push moral boundaries in pursuit of a personal goal, how far would they be willing to go? Have they ever done something they regret?
5c. How about for a sense of duty? Do their principles differ at all if the matter is occupational or part of an obligation? If so, which holds more importance to them?
6. In general, how difficult is it for your oc to tell someone 'no?'
6a. If there is someone they struggle to refuse more than others, what is their relationship? Is the other character aware of their power over Character A?
7. In general, how often does your OC agree to help or do favors for others?
7a. Is this something they enjoy doing, feel obliged to do, or have to be roped into in order to agree?
7b. If this is something they do often, are they the type to volunteer their help before anyone asks them? If so, how is this perceived/received by others?
7bb. If they help others frequently, do they ever foresake their own needs to do so? Do they ever ask for help, themselves?
