oh hey i randomized more questions from that meme a while back but apparently saved it to drafts instead of posting it
9. Is your character’s current socioeconomic status different than it was when they were growing up?
I guess. It's a bit complicated because he went from a part of a forbidden sect to basically a wandering sightseer, and I'm not sure either can be classified easily... But either way, it is different.
It's also a step above what he would have had if he'd never gotten sick. He would have been a poor peasant and likely never would have had access to all the things that, to him, make life worth living. As far as he’s concerned, the timeline where he never caught the plague and became an orphan is definitely the darker one.
17. What was your character’s favorite toy as a child?
I can see him with a doll, probably a wooden one. A little friend to cling to and play with and wear down that could withstand getting knocked around through a little boy's rough play and fill any role in a game of pretend it was called upon to fill.
Since his dad was a woodcarver, it would maybe be from him. Something he had with him to comfort him through his illness.
I think Lance left it behind when he left the temple.
28. How quick or slow is your character to resort to physical violence in a confrontation?
If he has the choice and it's not too late or too far gone, he's going to try to de-escalate wherever he can. He's not a violent person and he's not a fan of killing, though he'll do it if he thinks he has to. He would really rather not have to though.
Unfortunately he's incredibly weak, so self defense needs to be a little more preeminent than he's really happy about. If things turn violent he needs to finish things quickly.
30. What does your character find repulsive or disgusting?
Dirt, grime, squalor, illness, fishing through the garbage, etc.
Those are the only things he would really describe using those terms.
36. How does your character behave around people they dislike?
(Openly) disliking people is a bit of a new concept for him. He's friendly! He's nice! He's optimistic! He'll give everyone a chance!
But he does have a few people he dislikes regardless.
Normally he'll squash the feeling down. They're fine, they're fine, he's just misreading. It's rude to harshly judge. Give them a chance. He'll be on edge and a little more observant but otherwise he tries to force a smile and give them a chance.
However, he recently met someone who turned down his chances and he kind of hates her??? And that's really weird???? And it shows itself in the form of petty passive aggression, pranks, and small acts of sabotage.
Actually, it's kind of fun.
