Ask My OCs: 11, 12, 16 for Whisper; 2, 3, 14 for Oriana; 4, 13, 18 for Celandine
Alright, alright, for Whisper theAbyssal Tiefling Sea Sorceress, my precious disaster child (who just plannedand pulled off her first big heist I am so proud).
11.) Have they everbeen arrested and why?
Yes, she has been.Once. And it was because Ignatius is the pettiest motherfucker on theplanet. Okay, so he goes and lets himself get arrested “for the con” (aka, because heis so Dramatic) and she, of course, being the newest addition to the troop, is theone that was voluntold she had to go spring him from jail. Only apparently shetook too long to do so, because he later paid off a guard to arrest herover nothing and let her cool her heels in there for an entireday.
Whisper spent sometime trying to figure out a way out by herself, but since the poor dear hadn’tquite figured out even short-range teleportation and her sleight of hand justwasn’t up to snuff, she was stuck there. So, she started practicing her magic.
By the time Ignatiusreturned to retrieve her, ready to give her another lecture, the entire jail,guards and all were watching her with awe, applauding her with each newtrick. I’m sure he nearlyturned around and walked out to let her stew for a little while longer, but hespun it into free advertisement for the carnival rather well. Whisper didn’ttalk to him for a solid week after that.
But she’s neveractually been caught for anything she ever actually did, so. That streak isstill going.
12.) Who would theysacrifice their life for?
See, that’s thedifference. There are quite a few people Whisper would sacrifice her safetyfor: most of the people in the Monikers, especially Sin and Ignatius andTerrance, and probably the druid, and most of the people in the party.
But in a clear cut,end-all “they die or you die scenario?” There are only a handful of people shewould actually sacrifice herself for. And one she fully expects to die for, ifneedbe.
16.) If they coulddescribe themselves in one sentence, what would they say?
“The clever,brilliant, and beautiful sorceress, mistress of magic and humble servant of thesea; the one, the only, the Magnificent: Whisper. Pleasure to meet you.” ;)
And for my dear OrianaWright, aasimar paladin of Wahreight and now Duchess of an unnamed town (I’mconsidering calling it Palladine, would that be too on the nose?)
2.) What is theirdream vacation?
Well, this is Orianawe’re talking about, so it would probably be to a library. Complete access tothe Kamery temple’s library and inner stacks, to browse and research at herleisure.
Barring that, I thinkshe’d like a week in a small cabin somewhere, with all the books she’s beenmeaning to get to, just sunshine and fresh air and no people, and plenty oftime to read.
3.) What is theirfavorite color?
Skyblue, the color of a cloudless sky at noon.
14.) Do they like hotor cold temperatures?
Cold, I think. All that armor gets real uncomfortable real quick in theheat, especially if she’s doing more than walking.
For Celandine,my precious little gnome inventor wizard. Or she will be if she survives highschool.
4.) What is theirfavorite book?
Do Warforged Dream ofClockwork Sheep. While it sounds likean exciting novel, it’s actually a treatise on artificial sentience and whetherconstructs can be said to have souls. It’s fascinating to Celandine, the ideaof spontaneous consciousness, and long before she met Onion she was dissectingthe arguments in the thick tome.
Now that she’s met andbefriended a Warforged, she has decided for certain that they must have souls,and has moved on to considering what that means, but the book is still one ofher favorites, and she discovers new aspects to each argument every time sherereads it.
13.) What are theirspending habits?
Celandine spends very,very frugally. Her parents are able to mostly pay for everything throughprofits from the shop, so she doesn’t need to pay rent or buy food. A largechunk of it is put into savings for when she goes to university, but the restgoes to buying things for her friends, a little spending money, and of course,into whatever her latest project is.
18.) What makes themlaugh?
Celandine is prettyfree with her laughter. If her friends are cracking jokes or being goofy, or ifshe out maneuvers someone (like, saying bringing an entire tree’s worth of snowon someone’s head) or finally succeeds at something she’s been working on forever like, getting a spell to work oran invention to run.Celandine thinks the world isfull of wonder and discovery. So there are plenty of reasons for her to laugh.
