OCs still a WIP so maybe this'll change!
1: What’s your OC’s biggest insecurity and how would they react if someone pointed it out to them?
A general lack of empathy/sincere emotion. 'Fakeness' or being accused of hiding behind a fact persona; being 'empty'. Very emotionally reclusive/repressed.
He would deny, ignore, avoid, threaten or slander them. That is, if convincing them otherwise wouldn't work. His solution for the 'problem' would likely be the path of least resistance - whatever tactic he felt was most efficient.
2:Â If your OC wants to buy a firearm, what it might be for?
Hunting or killing. Likely monsters, but potentially people if required of him.
3:Â Does your OC behave differently around different people, if so with whom and how?
Yes. Though the reaction is often more dependant on the scenario than the person as an individual. By default he is cold and stand offish; asocial. When with others or if approached he will fake a naive, easy going/out going persona. Feigns ignorance often.
When fighting he takes a front of appearing excited or blood thirsty.
He is more open to his 'master'; listening to them without hesitation. He will react kindly or sarcastically (in a humorous sense) to this person. He is also painfully honest to them (unlike others, where he doesn't think twice about lying). He is, however, prone to withholding the truth if not questioned.
4:Â Would your OC want to involve themselves in humanitarian work ? If yes, then for what? If not, then why not?
Most likely not. Would do so if there was a hidden benefit to him or at the whim of his master. He is an individualist otherwise; self centered and under the belief his gain comes before others.
5:Â How would your OC generally react to someone being verbally abusive towards them for no apparent reason?
Ignore, shrug it off, or laugh. Maybe reply sarcastically or with a witty insult. Unless it involves his 'biggest insecurity' he rarely takes personal slights personally - especially given his shown personality is often a facade.
6:Â Does your OC have a realistic image of their own intelligence?
Not often. He suffers to some extent from narcissistic thinking: even when he thinks he's being completely objective, he's sometimes not.
7:Â Does your OC have any irrational phobias?
He hates bugs, no matter how small. He considers them unpredictable and so small they're impossible to control, which deeply bothers him. He would sooner fight an army than go any where near a spider.
8: How is/was your OC’s relationship with their parents?
Lacking/near nonexistent. Still working out details.
9:Â Does your OC feel a pressure to achieve or are they content and calm with doing what they can at the moment?
In a sense, yes. If it's within his control and something of value to himself or his master he will accept nothing less than his best - and there is always better. If it is out of his control or not of value he couldn't care less.
10:Â Does your OC guard their emotions by being tough? If not how would they?
He guards his emotions by being distant, detached and hiding behind fake personalities. He is very emotionally repressed, to the extent of often feeling nothing at all - likely a self defense mechanism.
11: How would your OC react to hearing they’re adopted?
This has never been a secret to him - he sees no difference, placing no significant value on 'family' ties as it is.
12:Â What is one of the most primary things your OC feels that is missing from their life?
Purpose. He relies on his master to give him purpose and is lost and destructive without it. He is not self sufficient in this sense, relying on another to feel accomplished.
13:Â What kind of situations does your OC avoid the most?
Emotional situations, particularly where someone wants him as a shoulder to cry on. He is irritated by this and considers it very draining to awkwardly navigate his way through them.
14:Â If your OC gets into a fight with their best friend, would they wait for their friend to make up with them, or would they try to make up with their friend?
it would be unlike him to have someone he truly considers his best friend, though he would stubbornly wait for them to make up. Likely he'd refuse to believe he was ever in the wrong - any apologies would be little more than lip service.
15:Â Does your OC consider themselves a good person?
Yes and no. He would consider all of his actions to be justified, but he has no strong moral inclinations and considers 'good' and 'bad' a matter of personal perspective. A perspective he doesn't really possess.
16:Â Is your OC good at giving others validation of their feelings and making them feel understood?
If he gets something out of it, he can be particularly cunning or charismatic. He is very manipulative. However, he avoids real connections or emotional situations like the plague.
17:Â Does your OC suffer of any mental health issues?
Debatable, but leaning strongly on actions and thoughts that may represent traits of Anti Social or Narcissistic personality disorders.
18:Â What kind of intrapersonal values does your OC have? (values about their self, what makes them feel like a valid person)
Logical thinking, physical appearance and strong will power are important to him. He will sometimes pride himself on his lack of emotional or peer related values, thinking secretly it makes others weak or disgusting.
19: What boosts your OC’s confidence the most?
Praise from his master, physical or appearance based praise.
20:Â Does your OC hurt others often unintentionally? If yes, how?
Yes. He is often unthinkingly inconsiderate to the feelings of others, and will say or do things that will not hurt him - thinking they wouldn't be hurt, either. Because he has no personal reference, finding out what hurts others can be a game of experience.
21:Â Does your OC hurt others often intentionally? If yes, how?
Yes. Usually subtly or with the knowledge he will get away with it. More likely emotionally over physically - though he's not against 'underhanded' methods if it benefits him. He likes to be in a position of power and will use this as a tactic to maintain or gain that. He does, however, believe 'you catch more flies with honey than vinegar'.
22:Â How does your OC usually show affection? Are they openly romantic or more restricted with their affectionate emotions? He is very physical, though generally lacks true affection has his own form of it. Any shower of praise or compliments verbally is likely a ruse.
23:Â Does your OC tend to hide something about their personality/essence when meeting new people? If yes, what?
Everything. His meeting people persona is entirely an act to seem more likeable or harmless than he really is.
24:Â How would your OC react if they got humiliated by someone in a group of people? Possibly ignore, laugh it off. Though if it was something he truly felt insecure over, he'd likely see to it that person paid - eventually. It would not be his main objective, but it is likely he'd take the opportunity if he saw them in a bad place.
25:Â How would your OC process the grief caused by the death of a loved one?
He has processed his prior grief by closing himself off, as he has now - though it may not have been intentionally. He otherwise suffered anger and frustration from the emptiness it left, not able to make real connections with others to 'fill' it.
26:Â What is the most intense thing your OC has been battling with? The death of the one he cared for at a very young age.
27:Â Does your OC practise any kind of escapism? If yes, what kind? Fighting is his escapism. Otherwise he likes to sleep.
28:Â How would your OC react if a bully stole their lunch money in high school?
Fight them, disregarding his own safety.
29:Â How does your OC behave on the face of a conflict?
With his fists/sword, when applicable. He is unlikely to stick his nose into someone else's business.
30:Â What makes your OC defensive quickest?
Toss up between his greatest insecurity and mentioning his lost companion.
