Character Interview
Tagged by @verbjectives I don’t have anyone to tag since I’m not really... aware of other people who have characters. If you see this and you have a DND character/OC, consider yourself tagged.
This is my first time posting about Corlan, my DND player character for the campaign I’m not the DM for. He’s a bugbear wizard historian who is... a little messed up from his childhood but hey who isn’t. He’s a good boy, he just... needs some socialization.
name ➔ Corlan Alealyth
are you single ➔ To be honest, at the moment I don’t know… I hope not… I think?
are you happy ➔ Is happiness really an achievable thing, or just something people pretend to be?
are you angry ➔ I’m not usually an angry person… but if I have been betrayed as I suspect…
are your parents still married ➔ Yes
birth place ➔ The Great Library of Solque Deth’oth, you’ve heard of it, certainly?
hair colour ➔ Red (even redder on my head and chin). I’m a bugbear, if you hadn’t seen already.
eye colour ➔ Green
birthday ➔ How should I know the day I was born? My parents rescued me from a smuggler’s den as a child.
mood ➔ What kind of question is that? The world is ending, I’m more alone than ever, and the one person who loved me probably betrayed me (and stole a book from the library – how could Kethrail do that he knows how much that would upset me). Actually you know what? I think I am angry.
gender ➔ Male, I suppose
summer or winter ➔ Winter, fur gets stuffy in the summer
morning or afternoon ➔ Morning... a nice cup of tea... a good history book...
EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE
are you in love ➔ I definitely used to be… I still am if he still is… I think
do you believe in love at first sight ➔ No
who ended your last relationship ➔ Well… that has yet to be seen. Hopefully neither of us.
have you ever broken someone’s heart ➔ I highly doubt it
are you afraid of commitments ➔ No
have you hugged someone within the last week? ➔ No
have you ever had a secret admirer ➔ I highly doubt it
have you ever broken your own heart? ➔ hah… yeah, probably
SIX CHOICES
love or lust ➔ love
lemonade or iced tea ➔ I don’t know what these are… I do like warm tea
cats or dogs ➔ never been around either
a few best friends or many regular friends ➔ never had either, only Kethrail, so it’s hard to say. He was my best friend so I suppose... that one?
wild night out or romantic night in ➔ romantic night in
day or night ➔ Long nights reading in the library
FIVE HAVE YOU EVERS
been caught sneaking out ➔ Yes, but luckily only by Baelaith (Kethrail’s dad), not my parents
fallen down/up the stairs ➔ Not since I was young
wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ Only constantly… all the books we’ve lost over time… all that information
wanted to disappear ➔ Yes… constantly as a child. I should probably find an invisibility spell soon, now that you mention it…
FOUR PREFERENCES
smile or eyes ➔ smile... although Kethrail has beautiful eyes as well...
shorter or taller ➔ taller... not that many are taller than me. Short is perfectly fine as well.
intelligence or attraction ➔ intelligence, but not smarter than me, of course.
hook-up or relationship ➔ relationship
FAMILY
do you and your family get along ➔ Well… not since I ran away from home. They think I helped Kethrail take a book – I would never! I specifically copied the book and took that… though obviously I should have taken it if he was just going to steal it later… what is he doing? Kethrail can’t even read Celestial. Who is he with?
would you say you have a “messed up life” ➔ I don’t know… what is a normal life? Many of the characters in stories I’ve read grew up like me. I didn’t have friends and I was only allowed out of my room for an hour a day – I can look like… well, not a bugbear. Is that messed up?
have you ever ran away from home ➔ yes…
have you ever gotten kicked out ➔ I mean… I don’t know if they’d let me come back now…
FRIENDS
do you secretly hate one of your friends ➔ I don’t really have any friends. The group I’m traveling with doesn’t seem to care if I live or die, and Kethrail… won’t tell me what he’s doing.
do you consider all of your friends good friends ➔ See above
who is your best friend ➔ Kethrail
who knows everything about you ➔ Kethrail
