40 OC Development Questions

I enjoy making character development questions way too much. These ones have basic and more random ones mixed in, but I tried to make them more in-depth.

Feel free to send in some asks with some numbers! Pick an oc, or I’ll pick randomly. If you reblog, I’ll roll a few dice and shoot some numbers your way, too!

If your oc was to host a TV show, what would it be about? Would your oc be good at it? What sorts of guests would appear?

Can your oc play any instruments? Have they ever wanted to learn how to play any? Why?

If you were to choose another name for your oc, what do you think it would be? Did you choose it for how it sounds or for its meaning?

How does your oc fare in the dark? Are they scared? Do they trip over things really easily or navigate like they have night vision? (Or do they have night vision?)

How well would your oc fare as a teacher? What subject would they be best at teaching? What about the worst?

What was your oc’s relationship with their parents like? If they didn’t have any parents/didn’t know them, who in their life was the closest to a parent to them?

Does your oc have any allergies, intolerances, or other sensitivities? How dangerous is it? Does this affect their daily life in any way?

Does your oc prefer being in a crowd or being completely alone? How many people can be around them before they get uncomfortable?

How easily does your oc make friends? Do they have difficulty talking to new people? Why?

How open is your oc to trying new things? Are they the adventurous sort, or would they rather stay in their comfort zone? Why?

What is the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to your oc?  Do they still feel ashamed for it? Were there any witnesses?

Does your oc have any best friends? Who was/is their closest friend? What about their worst enemy?

How dangerous is your oc? Are they completely innocent, or someone to be feared? Do others know?

What is your oc’s vision like? Do they require glasses, are they completely blind, or do they have 20/20 vision? Does this have an effect on their life?

What is your oc’s favourite time of day? Why is this? Do they have a daily practice during this time?

How often does your oc lie? Why is that? What was the biggest lie they’ve ever told?

How well can your oc keep secrets? Is there a difference between how they handle their own vs someone else’s? To what lengths would they go to keep something hidden?

How does your oc fare in an emergency situation? Do they panic, do they freeze, do they take charge?

If your oc were to be arrested for something, what would it be for? For being too kind, for a legitimate crime?

What is your oc’s personal hygiene like? Is it important to them? What is their daily routine for this like?

Are there any public events your oc would love to go to? Concerts, plays, movies, parties, etc? What about ones that they would hate? Why?

How quiet or loud is your oc? Are they easily capable of sneaking around without being heard, or do they feel it’s impossible to stop talking?

How difficult is it for your oc to get to sleep? Do they fall asleep the moment they hit the pillow, or do they have insomnia? Any reason why?

How dramatic is your oc? Do they make a big deal over every little thing, or do they fail to react to even the most crazy of events?

How does your oc handle being sick? Do they pretend not to be? Do they complain a lot? How susceptible to getting sick are they?

How stylistically fancy is your oc? Or would they rather go for comfort and plainness instead?

What’s your oc’s preferred mode of transportation? Walking, vehicle, (or in a sci-fi/magic setting) teleportation?

Is your oc always late, always early, or always right on time? Is there any reason for this?

How empathetic is your oc? Or are they closer to being a sociopath? Any reason why?

How much does your oc swear? Or do they keep completely clean? Why is this? Is there any situation where they would be the opposite?

What is your oc’s sense of humour like? What do they find funny? Do they try to be funny? Are they actually?

Is your oc a pacifist, or someone who picks fights? Why? In what situations would they be the opposite?

How does your oc’s own perception of themselves compare to how other people see them? Is your oc aware that other people see them differently (if it’s different)?

How easily does your oc throw something away? As soon as something is through with its usefulness, or are they more like a hoarder? Is there a reason?

What is your oc’s ideal night out like? Or would they rather spend it at home?

How picky is your oc? Will they not accept something because of the smallest details being off, or do they not care in the slightest? Why?

How energetic is your oc? Do they have trouble sitting still or do they feel low on juice all the time? Any reason why?

Is it difficult for your oc to focus, or do they have no trouble being in the moment? Do they daydream or zone out?

How humble is your oc? Or are they closer to royal in their self-perception? Why? Is this obvious to others?

Blood on the Clocktower is a hell of a social deduction game. With most games like Werewolf and Town of Salem, your job is to figure out who is lying if you are good or lie if you are evil. With BotC, both the good players and the evil players are lying all over the place. Outsider roles like the Mutant and Damsel literally have to lie to help good not lose. And it’s not just players lying. Sometimes the person running the game just lies.

In most social deduction games you can just trust whatever information you get, and the ability to give false information is often specific and predictable. Meanwhile in BotC, you can be the Oracle and get told that there are 2 evil players to convince you it is a Vigor Mortis game, meanwhile it’s actually a Lleech game and you are the poisoned host. The storyteller has so much room to help spread lies and manipulate, its crazy.

Like, imagine you were playing Town of Salem as mafia, and you get told you have two Godfathers and 1 of them is secretly a good player and you have to figure out which. That would be completely insane, but in BotC that’s just the Magician. 

Wacky ass game, would recommend.

Dr. Goodgold, or How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Cheddar Man

I used to hate Gholdengo. They took the mimic pokemon, and instead of making a cooler mimic, they made an unholy mixture of an flailing inflatable tube man and a 90s dollar store string cheese mascot.

But after overcoming my disappointment, I have come to the conclusion that wacky inflatable string cheese tube man is actually completely and utter perfect and I was but a fool. 

Gholdengo is a walking trophy to represent the being the 1000th pokemon and the sidequest you have to do to get him. He’s a spirit possessing a bunch of coins and using them to create a body. He snowboards. He’s good competitively. He has an arguably busted signature move. He blocks you from removing entry hazards. He nukes fairies out of existence. He’s got dreadlocks for some reason. He’s rad as hell.

Just look at this doofus.

I could punch him and he would fall over into a pile of coins. Adorable.

How could you ever say l8er boy to this sk8er boy?
