6) If you were to pick one song — and only one song — to describe your character, what would it be and why?:
You had to ask that question for like the one character I have trouble picking songs for XDD For now, I’m going with this one (no pun intended): Shatter Me by Lindsey Stirling
15) Can they multi-task or must they focus on one subject at a time?:
Luna is great at multi-tasking. She’s a Lightbringer, after all. She had to learn to multi-task and learn quickly.
Lily:
8) Are they a quick thinker or do they need time to sort through their thoughts?:
Lily is a very quick thinker. Being a thief helps with that. She’s also very bookish so she’s well read on lots of ideas.
24) Does your character have any enemies? If so, who and why?:
I consider Dendron to be one of her enemies. He was Asphodel’s Court mentor so basically the one who made Asphodel who he is today. Another enemy of hers would be her own Court mentor, but she’s got more beef with Dendron.
29) Does your character get restless when things are too quiet or do they favour solitude and silence? Why?:
No. She loves silence and solitude. Like in the Priory library. It’s a great environment for thinking and collecting herself.
Rosaleen:
4) Do they have any verbal tics? Do they have trouble pronouncing certain words or getting their thoughts across clearly?:
Rosie is a fast talker, but not a motor mouth. Sometimes she gets over excited and talks too fast for people to understand, but she’s getting better with that. She also has trouble pronouncing big, fancy words. Basically anything an asura would say.
19) If your character was suddenly challenged, would they rather run away or stay and fight?:
She’d rather stay and fight, but if she doesn’t think it’s a good idea, she’ll definitely run away. She’s fairly good at assessing a situation.
28) Are they afraid of death? Do they have any regrets?:
She is afraid of death. However it’s not to the point where she doesn’t do crazy or reckless things out of worry. She basically forgets she’s afraid. As for regrets, I can’t think of any off the top of my head yet.
Luna….my main….I spoil her >< But if we’re talking story favorite….nah still Luna. I’m bias. Although Dendron’s starting to come in a close second. I’m actually very proud of myself with how he’s turned out…..Tangelo’s creeping up in 3rd place. Although he may get surpassed by Aster at some point.
L:lies the most.
Tangelo. It comes with the job description. He’s so good, he even lies to himself…..which isn’t a good thing…
O:has the most OCs of their own.
Probably Lily. She is a writer, after all.
W:watches the most anime.
Already answered here.
E:is the most emotive.
Um…..Rosie. Yup. Definitely Rosie. Ball of energy, that one.
R:feels the most detached from reality.
Wow that’s deep. During which part of the story??? Cuz I think current events have done that to all of my babies XDDD
45:Do they express their thoughts through words or deeds?:
Luna is one for words and she’s rather good at speaking to others. If someone is upset, she’ll talk with them to make them feel better (that doesn’t mean she’s not one for hugs though). She also likes talking about subjects she’s passionate about. Give her a topic she really likes and she may start to ramble. lol
40:How misanthropic are they?
Phinoa is less misanthropic than she used to be. She’s always had trust issues with people thanks to her school career and thought everyone was dumber than her (which for the most part is probably true because she’s smart even for an asura) so she didn’t like people very much. However she’s managed to make several really good friends and that’s died down quite a bit recently.
33:Concept of home and family?
Rowan’s idea of home is the Grove. He may be a warmaster in the Vigil now, but he’s always going to be a Warden at heart. Family to him is his guild, his friends, and Elah. He’s even become a father figure to Eodryd and takes pride in that role.
I’d like to know 1, 2, 10, and 23 for Luna, Rosaleen, and Dendron! owo
— mantraswag
OOH!! FUN!! :D
1) What race are they? How does it affect their personality and views, if at all?
(They're all sylvari)
Luna: She's naturally very curious about many things and loves to ask questions, but she knows when to stop. She does follow the Tablet so she embraces what that teaches as well.
Rosaleen: Same as Luna, except she might be too curious for her own good. Curiosity sometimes gets her into trouble. But she is young, so she's the typical sapling.
Dendron: He's a bit of an elitist when it comes to dealing with his own race. He doesn't follow the Tablet and thinks anyone who does is blind. How does his view change with Heart of Thorns? Stay tuned! (cuz even I don't know at the moment)
2) What’s their class? Why this class in particular, whether for in-character or your own reasons?
(the IRL reasons are going to be funny XDD)
Luna: Mesmer
In-character reason: She was very skilled in that kind of magic while in the Dream. Waking up was a bit of a shock for her to see how powerful and dangerous she could be. Hence why she's afraid of her own magic (at times).
IRL reason: She is a mesmer because cashew-butter and botanyjokes thought mesmer would fit me the best (They were right).
Rosaleen: Ranger
In-character reason: She loves everything about nature! And animals! Nature + animals = a happy Rosie!!
IRL reason: I needed a ranger ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Dendron: Elementalist
In-character reason: That's what he was gifted with.
IRL reason: It's actually a funny story. For a long time we had a random unnamed Court ele who killed Solchel's first lover and thought nothing of it. Then one day I randomly got the urge to start a new ship with cashew-butter that involved a Courtier and a warden. We freaked when we made the realization that he was already in our story before he existed XDD
10) How do they feel about the other races?
Luna: She doesn't care what race you are. One of her best friends is an asura and she's got a bestie human friend as well. She loves everyone the same and would love to learn more about their cultures. However, she's not stupid. She'll start to keep her distance if racial danger starts to happen. All she hopes for is that her friends of other races don't start that with her.
Rosaleen: Pretty much the same as Luna, except a little more cautious. She really didn't know what to make of Kairi when she first met her. Her first human! She has to get comfortable around the other races before she starts to open up.
Dendron: Not a sylvari? Don't care about you. You're an idiot in his eyes. Except a few asura who write interesting books for him to read. That's all asura are good for. Giving him more knowledge. Charr? Maybe a few useful things. Humans? Dumb. Norn? REALLY dumb. Knowledge and intelligence is all that matters.
23) Give them an AU, any AU:
Luckily this has been discussed before!! I'm using the "humans in our own world AU"
Luna: She would be a kindergarden teacher with an art studio on the side. She would be happily married to Oleander and the two of them would be the BEST parents in the world! (after one or two miscarriages because "fearing her own magic and not trusting herself completely" doesn't translate well into our world so drama has to be somewhere else) She would also help run a troubled youth center and care for those kids like her own *cough*Acon and Asphodel*cough*
Rosaleen: The typical highschool cheerleader....except not a slut or a bitch. She'd be popular in a good way. Everyone loves her! She would volunteer at an animal shelter after school. Her story would be the typical highschool drama, complete with the chess club nerd getting the popular girl in the end.
Dendron: Definitely in the mafia. Either that or the head of some other kind of organized crime ring.....and dating an FBI investigator.
Luna makes friends WAY too easily for her own good! It seems like if you meet her, you will eventually be her friend. She’s very good at picking up on people’s personalities, like/dislikes, triggers, etc, so she rarely gets on people’s bad sides. If she does, it’s usually by accident or at the start of a relationship with her and she’s still figuring them out. But she’s an all around nice person and can see the good in everyone :)
