I'll be answering for the MCs from my WIP Foreigner God
1. You’ve been invited to a potluck. What food/drink are you bringing?
Thiery: I would have my cooks prepare some easily transportable dishes - an assortment of cold meats and stuffed pastries would do
Yarren: Depends on what I can get my hands on. I could bring some wild fruit I guess
2. Someone close to you has fallen sick. What is the first thing you do?
Thiery: make sure they have the most comfortable chambers in the Castle available, then call for my doctor
Yarren: wrap them in a blanket, make sure they have lots of fruits, then I would get Una. She would use her powers to heal them or give me some herbs for them
3. What do you do when you can’t stay asleep?
Thiery: Sometimes good heavy wine helps, other times I go for a walk or light exercise
Yarren: find someone to spend the rest of the night with

Your OC interview questions are:
1) What's your go to coffee order (or equivalent for a fantasy/sci-fi world)?
2) What is the first thing you notice about your appearance when you look in the mirror VS the first thing other people notice when they see you?
3) Who would you consider to be your closest friend and why?
My questions: 1) What is your stance on lying? 2) Do you enjoy people watching? 3) What is the best decision you ever made?
I'll answer with two OCs that are my absolute faves and two that I need to develop more: Princess Snow (FSF), Nickelle (TCIO), Astra (GD), and Tris (FSF).
Responses under the cut cus this is long XD:
Snow (Fractured Stars Falling WIP)
What is your stance on lying?
Snow folds her arms and says firmly, "Even if it's for a good reason I don't like it. My stepmother used lies to hurt me and others, I won't use them unless absolutely necessary, and even then I'm going to feel terrible about it the whole time. I refuse to be that kind of queen."
Do you enjoy people watching?
"No, not really. It feels weird to watch people without a reason to be doing so. It feels dishonest and sneaky to me."
What is the best decision you ever made?
Snow swallows harshly, clenching a fist as she holds back tears and avoids looking at the person who asked the question. "I finally saw through my stepmother's lies. I took over the throne and had her thrown into the deepest dungeon of the palace, after years of giving her excuses and too many second chances. But I was too late to... to save my best friend from getting killed by her because of my stupid mistakes..."
Nickelle (The City is Ours WIP)
What is your stance on lying?
Nickelle bristles at the question, looking at the person who asked suspiciously. Then she shrugs, picking at the glove of her superhero suit. "If it's for a good cause, I'd say it's fine."
Do you enjoy people watching?
She thinks about it for a moment, fiddling with the patches on her leather jacket. "From a distance, in the city yes. If you can get up to one of the rooftops and sit on the edge it's a great spot to watch people go by."
What is the best decision you ever made?
Nickelle looks around to see if anyone is watching or listening in. "I made a choice to protect this city and my team. Other people might not like my methods, but I'm doing what I have to. Hence why I have to do it under another identity, since other people might have... more negative feelings about my methods. I don't like it either, but this has to be done."
Astra (Galaxy Destroyer WIP)
What is your stance on lying?
Astra shrugs, and says like a true thief and space pirate, "Oh yeah it's fine. Sometimes it's the only way to get what you need. Especially in a galaxy where P.I.E. made everything so damn expensive. If I need to lie and steal to live, I'm fine with that."
Do you enjoy people watching?
Astra looks around for potential targets. "For a chance to make a little money off of an unsuspecting idiot? Absolutely, it's not just enjoyable, it's how I make a living."
What is the best decision you ever made?
Astra thinks for a minute, going through all the things she's done and stolen as a space pirate, and all the times she made a not so smart move. "Well one of the worst decisions I ever made was trusting another pirate on a job, he stabbed me in the back and left me high and dry. I don't know about the best decision though, maybe becoming a thief despite the mixed results? Mixed results yes, but I can't imagine being anything else, and the benefits outweigh the risks- in my opinion."
Tris (Fractured Stars Falling WIP)
What is your stance on lying?
Tris presses her lips into a thin line, her hand tightly gripping the hilt of her sword at her side. "Only if it's for a really good reason, and no one gets hurt. Otherwise, lying is just wrong."
Do you enjoy people watching?
She shrugs, the cloud of tight coils that make up her hair bouncing with the movement. "I never really thought about it. Kaye and I prefer to keep to ourselves most of the time. Watching people for no reason has never really interested me."
What is the best decision you ever made?
Tris thinks about it hard for a minute. "I'm not sure, maybe entering the fighting tournament for the prince's hand to get out of my stepfamily's... well it's my family's house but they were going to kick me out at some point anyway. Anyways, joining the tournament to get away from them... well it got me away from them, but I saw and did things in that area that I wish I hadn't... but on the other hand, if I hadn't done that, I probably wouldn't have had the chance to see Kaye again and spend more time with him. Despite the terrible circumstances..."

(apologies for the weird formatting on the taglists, I'm trying to make sure everyone gets tagged bc I think I figured out why tumblr was being weird with tags earlier)
Maybe I shouldn't do Arlasaire. She is so blunt, it is difficult to get her to articulate anything XDDDD
Gently tagging @maiemorrae, @reaperofcrows, @theprissythumbelina, @zebee-nyx, @dragonprincedawn, @satohqbanana, @verba-writing, and @viviaubm (I forget which is your writing Tumblr but feel free to reply on there!) to answer the following about their OCs:
What food do you miss from your childhood?
What skill do you wish you could master instantly?
To whom are you closest at the moment? What are they like?
Whose approval do you want the most?
What is the first time you realized the people who raised you had flaws?
Open tag to anyone else who likes these questions too!
I don't feel much like writing, but I need to get something out, so luckily @amaiguri tagged me for these questions! I'm thinking a lot about Alyss today, so Alyss will be answering these.
1. What's the first time you rebelled in your life against the society and its expectations?
I would say I've always been something of a rebel. I smoked and drank and chased girls all my teens. Entering the Church, though, that was something no one expected of me. I wanted to be part of something more than just myself. *giggles* How well that turned out.
2. What is something you miss the most from your childhood?
I miss...everything. My cousin, the most, yeah. My mum, sometimes more. Everything, when it wasn't broken and ruined. Not it. Me.
3. What's your biggest regret in life so far?
*Slightly hysterical laughter* Yeah. No, yeah. Yeah.
4. If you could switch places with any other person, who would it be and why?
I would like to be in one of those rich politicians in government. I'll sign some reasonable bills and make choices that help people for a change, and I'll let them live in a body with the repercussions of their mistakes. They wouldn't last a day as me.
5. Do you have a signature dish or favorite food? What is it and how is it connected to you?
I don't...remember if I do. Did. I don't now. Food isn't much fun. Anymore.
6. Is life getting better?
Define better. Actually, no, I can answer. No.
Tagging @talesofsorrowandofruin @writingamongther0ses @tabswrites @frostedlemonwriter and @dyrewrites for these same questions!
Your Questions are: 1) What brings you joy? 2) What motivates you? and 3) Do you feel guilt and if so what for?
Answering for Ramsey from Vampire Journalist/ BITE:
What Brings You Peace?
Working on school work and being able to glance up and see Mark drinking a coffee at the same table. Just knowing he's there is all I need to know everything might be okay.
How do you cope with your anger?
Not well if I'm honest. Burying that forever if I can. (this may or may not have lead to a double homicide :) <-- the smile is sarcastic)
If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
Wherever Mark is. Preferably in our apartment, on our couch, watching a shitty sitcom and eating dinner.

Questions for any of your OCs:
What do you do to relax?
What's your ideal day like?
Do you know how to cook?
My questions were:
What is your favorite drink?
Do you know how to dance?
What would make you never forgive someone?
I'll let Kashi answer these:
Favorite Drink: Back home there was this drink we made called...in Terran it would translate to something like 'Howling Teeth'. We sifted fields flooded by water from the nearby ice lake and gathered them into stone barrels right before the cold season hit. We pack it with herbs and grasses and then leave it for an entire cycle. After it's thawed and prepared in just the right way...it's pure delight. I cannot legally drink it among my own pack anymore - it is a long story - but. It is my favorite nonetheless.
Dance: I know several dances both from home and from earth. It helps me practice with my knives and stay light on my feet.
Never forgive: Someone once tracked down and hunted my entire pack, including my mate and my cubs. I will never forgive that hunter for destroying my life and staining my future. Otherwise...not much.
I have brainrot so I made my own version of a character worldbuilding questionnaire! I tried to make something that prompts world lore from characters. Feel free to tweak this template as you see fit and answer however you like! Please tag me when you use it cuz I love hearing about ocs and lore!
