50 OC Questions

These are questions are from @localravenclaw ‘s post. Thanks so much for reading; I would love to read about other MCs!🪻

1. Describe your OC's physical appearance in detail.

She is both Latina (on her father’s side, he was from South America) and British (on her mother’s side). She has long black hair that is usually in a French braid and draped over her shoulder. It’s very wavy when out of the braid. She has lilac color eyes, honestly I haven’t decided from which parent she got them from. She has tan skin and a tiny freckle high on her left cheek, just below her eye. She is petite and has a hourglass figure. She does have a few light scars on her back. The caretaker at the orphanage would verbally and physically “discipline” the children. Raven would try to step in so none of the littler kids would be hurt. She is self conscious about anyone seeing them.

2. Why'd you choose your OC's name?

For most RPGs, my character is always named “Raven”, so for HL it wasn’t any different lol. For her last name, honestly, it was an inside joke. I love the 70s show Fawlty Towers, with John Cleese. It only ran for about a dozen episodes but it’s hilarious. It was the first last name I could think of😄

3. How does your OC feel about their birthday?

Her birthday is Jan. 29, 1874, and she only cares about to a bit because her favorite poem, The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe, was first published on that day in 1845. She only starts to care more when Sebastian gives her a birthday gift in their sixth year, which are tiny gold snake earrings. It was her first ever birthday gift ever. (Side note: my birthday is also Jan. 29. I tried to think of another day but making her an Aquarius too just felt right ♒️)

4. How does your OC and their parents get along?

Unfortunately, Raven doesn’t know who her family is. She lived at the orphanage as long as she can remember. She won’t go looking for them, as she figures they would’ve already have come back for her at some point. In my story for her, the caretaker gave her the last name “Fawlty”, (and yes misspelling it on purpose) as another way to torment her. Though she keeps the name to prove to others that she isn’t “faulty”.

5. What's something you'd never put your OC through again?

Being alone. She has too many people around her that genuinely cares. Especially with having Sebastian in her life, she will never be alone again.

6. What's your OC's go-to comfort meal?

Breakfast foods. All kinds, pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, grilled tomatoes, and toast. There’s just something about a nice breakfast that makes Raven feel warm and cozy. It’s the simple things in life🍳

7. What career path would your OC take?

Though she feels it’s expected for her to be an Auror, Curse Breaker or working for the Ministry. Ultimately she has a love for music, specifically singing. She does try out for the choir at Hogwarts. The only person who knew was Poppy and she gave Raven the courage needed to try out their sixth year (now that she wasn’t in the middle of stopping a goblin rebellion!). She also knows how to play the piano too, and taught herself to play, however, she doesn’t know how to read sheets of music. 🎼

8. What's something your OC can't do?

Can’t say no to someone who needs help. Since no one was really there for her growing up at the orphanage, she believes that no one should feel helpless no matter the size of the problem. If she can help, she will!

9. What is your OC's ideal romantic partner?

Someone who will stand by her side and love her no matter what. They make her feel like she does belong and won’t be judged. They believe in her and encourage her to do what makes her happy.

10. Does your OC like to spend time alone or with others more?

Honestly, Raven can go either way. She loves spending time with her friends, especially Sebastian, and does prefer her close circle of friends. Though she is content with taking time for herself by either reading a good book, or practicing her music in the Room of Requirement.

11. What time does your OC usually go to sleep?

Depends really, school nights she’ll try to go to sleep at a decent time, if there isn’t too much homework. On weekends or summertime she’ll stay up late with Sebastian or hanging out with other friends.

12. Where in the sibling order is your OC?

Unknown, as far as she’s aware she is an only child.

13. What's the worst thing your OC's ever done?

Harming the orphanage caretaker. The caretaker was “disciplining” one of the smaller children and accusing them of stealing something from her room. Raven had just about enough of it with her and wished a bookshelf to fly across the room and slam into her. Everything had happened so fast and it took a moment for her to realize that’s exactly what happened. All the other children had looked at her with wide eyes and she quickly grabbed what few possessions she had and ran away. That was a few days before Professor Fig had come to the orphanage to gift Raven her Hogwarts letter. He was able to find her hiding out at a near by in a couple days later.

14. What would it take for your OC to kill someone?

By them hurting someone she loved/cared very dearly about.

15. What item does your OC hold most dear?

A copper cameo brooch given by Sebastian. It was a Christmas present, and was surrounded by little pearls and had the Ancient Magic symbol engraved in the center. She has worn it everyday since.

16. How does your OC unwind?

Practicing her singing and playing piano. She does want to learn how to read sheet music, but ends up just playing from the heart. Of course reading! Broom flying as well, as she finds it therapeutic. Even just relaxing with Sebastian in the Room of Requirement or Undercroft.

17. What's your OC's star sign?

Aquarius! Aquarians are intellectual, curious and can be deeply social. They are represented by the Star card in the tarot. They are determined to make a powerful difference in the world. ♒️

18. What kind of drunk is your OC?

She doesn’t normally drink, but she would be very chatty and giggly.

19. Who does your OC end up with?

Sebastian Sallow. He is her whole world and everything comes naturally with him. Her day doesn’t feel complete until she’s shared it with him. With him she feels anywhere they go, she’ll always be home.

20. Who is your OC's role model?

Professor Fig. He was her first father figure and the first to believe and guide her through such a challenging time. Not only with simply learning how to be a proper witch, but helping her learn about Ancient Magic and taking on a goblin rebellion.

21. Is your OC big on revenge?

Not necessarily. If she can, Raven will tell said person how she feels right then. If it’s minor she won’t go out of her way to get back at them. If it’s critical then she will do what it takes to get back at them.

22. If your OC ever got the chance, would they go back in time? When would they go?

Ultimately no she wouldn’t go back. Through her hardships growing up she believes it made her the woman she is. Though if she could go back, it would be to try and save both Lodgok and Professor Fig.

23. What's your OC's favourite memory?

Getting her Hogwarts letter would be one. She always felt there was something more to her life but didn’t fully understand what. The picnic her and Sebastian went on the summer before their sixth year. They had finally confessed their feelings for each other and had their first kiss.

24. Will your OC ever admit to being wrong?

Always! No one wants to admit they’re wrong but Raven knows it’s the right thing to do. She feels it’s better to put her feelings aside and admit when something is her fault and go from there. Except with Imelda, because she finds it funny to get her all riled up over nothing, especially when it comes to quidditch.

25. Is your OC doomed by the narrative?

Possibly. Not sure where the next game is going to go. All these little things I wrote about Raven is for me only and I fully look forward to see what will happen in the sequel!

26. Would your OC get along with you?

I would think so!☺️

27. What's one thing your OC will never get over?

Her fear of being alone and losing everyone she loves. She went from having no one to having a family in such a short time. To have that all taken away would be heart breaking.

28. Is your OC going to make it?

I’d like to think so. She’s been through so much but each time becomes stronger from it. Plus it helps to have the love of her life by her side. Sebastian gives her that extra boost of strength she didn’t know she needed.

29. Does your OC look their age?

Yes!✨

30. What weird pet would your OC have?

She has a pet Flying Fox Bat named Agnes since her seventh year. They can have a five foot wing span, and she’s basically as long as Raven is tall. So it took a bit for Sebastian to come around with her keeping Agnes. But Agnes is a bit sweetheart and loves being part of the family. Mini story of Agnes was she was living in captivity at the London Zoo and escaped one day. Making her way to the Forbidden Forest, Raven found her alone while taking a hike late one evening. They had an immediate connection and she’s taken care of her ever since. 🦇

31. Does your OC care a lot about their appearance?

Yes and no. Personal hygiene of course. Brushing a braiding her hair, definitely. If it’s a regular day then she does not mind wearing a casual outfit. Going out on a date with Sebastian, then she’ll put on a little makeup and get dolled up more because… why not?💄

32. What's one food your OC can't stand?

French Onion Soup. It was what was mostly served at the orphanage. Yuck!

33. What animal do people associate your OC with?

Probably the same as her Patronus, which is a black bear. That animal is known for their adaptability and resourcefulness. Others will see her as a fierce opponent who will protect herself and those close to her. Only those close to her will know of that softer side she usually keeps hidden away.

34. What's your OC's "thing"?

Depends on what the “thing” refers to… 😅🤔 if it’s behavioral then it’s fiddling with her braid when she’s nervous and can’t figure out what to say, thus being an awkward mess. If it’s material then probably her cameo brooch. If it’s physical then her lilac eyes of course!

35. Random fact about your OC

Despite being Latina, she doesn’t speak Spanish. Because Raven doesn’t know where part of her heritage comes from she never learned.

36. Would your OC sleep with a clone of themself?

…no…🫣

37. What part of yourself do you love in your OC?

Her loyalty to her the people she loves/cares about the most.

38. What's the lowest point in your OC's life?

After being “disciplined” crying herself to sleep and feeling so alone. Wishing and dreaming of a better tomorrow.

39. What's your OC's biggest achievement?

Finding a family. She believes family isn’t about blood, but finding people who will always be there no matter what and accept you for who you are.

40. Does your OC ever go back home?

She considered her “home” to be wherever Sebastian is. The orphanage was never her home.

41. How would your OC adapt to the modern world?

Since she loves music so much I think so. There’s so much emotion to express through music. With that I think she can adapt pretty quickly.

42. Does your OC have any unique talents?

As stated, she sings and plays piano. 🎤🎹 Though it takes a long time to finally share that passion with others.

43. Does your OC exist in canon or AU timeline?

Canon, I think.

44. Is your OC a people person?

Only with those in her inner circle. She will be cordial to others, unless they’re rude to her and then they won’t be worth her time anymore.

45. Did your OC ever have an alternative name?

Whatever her birth name was, but she’ll never know.

46. Does your OC possess any special powers?

Just being able to wield Ancient Magic.✨

47. Is your OC allergic to anything?

Just to people who are rude and mean to others for no reason.

48. Does your OC have a lot of uncommon knowledge? How do they know it?

I guess knowing able everyday muggle things that would seem weird to other people only growing up in the wizarding world.

49. Does your OC have any scars or birthmarks with an interesting story?

She has some scares from being “disciplined”, thankfully she can cover them with everyday clothes.

50. What do you love and hate most about your OC?

I hate that she isn’t real and that the wizarding world isn’t real😆 Otherwise no, I don’t nor can I hate Raven. I love her courage and kindness. That she’ll fight no matter hard things may seem, and always get back up after falling down. She’s had to overcome so much and was alone for so long but now she has a family.🪻💜

If you have finished reading then thank you so much!💜

O.C. Character deep delve - Zofie Orel.

Questions originally by this user (though the post seems to have vanished now). I felt like answering them all to help get more of a feel for my O.C. Zofie Orel and this will become part of a master post for this OC.and I'll make other posts for my other OCs as these questions really help develop them and have their own master posts too. Not tagging this post as already done so, so this is for anyone with OCs they want to really flesh out more. I've put them behind a cut because there are 50 questions and answers! So click read more if you fancy knowing more about her family life, her childhood and just generally more about them.

1. How does your character think of their father? What do they hate and love about him? What influence - literal or imagined - did the father have? Zofie loves her father Alexandr dearly. She has always loved his tenacity and strength to protect others. He was firm with her but never over controlling, believing she should choose her own path even if it meant having nothing to do with either his or his wife's path. She doesn't hate anything about her father, though his very dry sense of humour could sometimes leave her second guessing whether he actually was joking or not. Even though her father left active service in the Coterie of Assassins (formerly) Brotherhood, he kept their family safe. He taught her all about the Assassin order and their enemy the Templars and how both have adapted to current times. When she decided to join the Assassins he rejoined the order so he could be her mentor and teach her.

2. Their mother? How do they think of her? What do they hate? Love? What influence - literal or imagined - did the mother have? Zofie has always been very close to her mother. She encouraged her hobbies and passions. Only thing Zofie didn't like was when her mother would get so focused on a project she wouldn't sleep and then develop terrible headaches that would last for days. She still knows she has this habit. Her mother gave her, her stubborn streak though she failed miserably in trying to teach her the finer points of hacking.

3. Brothers, sisters? Who do they like? Why? What do they despise about their siblings? No she is an only child. Her parents knew it was a risk to have one child with their work they did.

4. What type of discipline was your character subjected to at home? Strict? Lenient? Her parents were firm with her, for her own safety whilst she was young but allowed her the freedom to develop as she wanted as she grew, knowing she had a good understanding of the world. They held nothing back in answering any questions she ever had.

5. Were they overprotected as a child? Sheltered? Because of their lives, they did protect Zofie as a young child, always watching out for danger. Once she became a teen and knew about her parents hidden lives and the dangers because of it, understanding and supporting it, she wasn't as watched over.

6. Did they feel rejection or affection as a child? Lots of affection, though not always physically or verbally displayed. She just always knew.

7. What was the economic status of their family? Well off thanks to their 'official jobs' but also thanks to her mother's talent for redirecting Templar and their supporter's funds. Outwardly they do not display their wealth, living in modest homes, but Zofie and anyone she wants to help, need for nothing.

8. How does your character feel about religion? Atheist. She has seen how organised religion has controlled the masses ever since the ISU decided they were gods. She has no issue with anyone believing anything, so long as they don't push it at her.

9. What about political beliefs? She's seen too often how power corrupts. She believes that no one should go hungry, be unable to be well or live without shelter. So you could consider her a socialist.

10. Is your character street-smart, book-smart, intelligent, intellectual, slow-witted? She is well read having spent much of her childhood in the Coterie libraries studying history and anything factual. She's quite artistic minded but not the best at the more mathematical side of things. Thanks to her training as an Assassin she can mix among the high born or street gangs just as easily.

11. How do they see themselves: as smart, as intelligent, uneducated? She isn't afraid to share what she knows and considers herself intelligent, but she tries not to be cocky about it. Though her stubborn nature sometimes gets misinterpreted as that.

12. How does their education and intelligence – or lack thereof - reflect in their speech pattern, vocabulary, and pronunciations? She usually speaks with what some would say is a 'cultured' soft British accent, Not 'posh', but she can flip her dialect if needed depending on who she is talking to. Her vocab range is vast but she dials it back depending on who she is talking to. In private she is more relaxed and swears... a lot.

13. Did they like school? Teachers? Schoolmates? Whilst she was still in Cardiff, she was mostly home schooled to protect her, though thanks to her parents, she was well educated, more so than normal children. When the family moved to London she was schooled in the Coterie. She got on with some of her teachers, especially her History, Geography, Science and Art teachers, as she often chatted with them about what ever subject matter they were teaching. Her schoolmates were fellow children of Assassins. Like any child she was friends with some and not with others. Thankfully bullying was not accepted by the school and any hint of it was dealt with fast so she never suffered from that.

14. Were they involved at school? Sports? Clubs? Debate? Were they unconnected? As she was trained in the Coterie, After school clubs consisted of physical training, self defence and combat skills.

15. Did they graduate? High-School? College? Do they have a PHD? A GED? She finished high school with top marks - 3 A levels in Art, History and Science. She took an Open University degree and got her BA Hons in Egyptology whilst training as an Assassin as she couldn't exactly leave to study.

16. What does your character do for a living? How do they see their profession? What do they like about it? Dislike? In the public eye she helps her mother's property developer company as designer and developer, but anyone looking deeper would find a false cover as an MI5 Secret service agent ( this cover works well with the police in Prague who know from experience not to mess with secret service of any country. Her parents helped create that identity thanks to friends in high places in England). Her real role is an Assassin. 17. Did they travel? Where? Why? When? She has travelled on mission before, going to Paris, Detroit, USA and now living in Prague, Czech Republic. All for missions, whether short term or long term as part of the Coterie. Paris was during her a mission where she shadowed another Assassin. The USA was with her mother when they visited David Sarif a year after she was augmented. Prague is her current mission.

18. What did they find abroad, and what did they remember? Paris was where she really understood how the Templars as the order once knew them had been superseded by the Illuminati and the former were now very much the financial backbone of the latter. Detroit, she thanked Sarif for saving her life and will be shocked to remember that she actually met Adam Jensen before he got augmented as she as introduced to him during a meeting with David.

19. What were your character’s deepest disillusions? In life? What are they now? That there are truly evil people in the world. Not just out for themselves, but self centered enough to think they know best for the rest of the world. That they think they have the right to control everyone else. That has never changed.

20. What were the most deeply impressive political or social, national or international, events that they experienced? Well she survived the Incident. Thankfully the Coterie had become unsure at the synchronised signals augmented people were getting and the correlation with TYM's sudden manufacture of new chips that many chapters of the Coterie refused the upgraded chip until they could learn more. The London chapter was one of them. She's witnessed the segregation of augmented people following that event and the creation of ghetto like cities across the world where many augmented are put.

21. What are your character’s manners like? What is their type of hero? Whom do they hate? Depending on situation, her manners can be impeccable. But in private she is much more relaxed and relaxed about things. Her heroes are her parents, her grand master Katherine Frye and the assassin Amunet. She despises currently Lucius Debeers, Elizabeth Duclare and Madame Photographie.

22. Who are their friends? Lovers? ‘Type’ or 'ideal’ partner? She has a couple of friends in the Coterie. Sanchia Evans aka Curly- The Aug doctor/mechanic. Good friends with Zofie and knows her way around Sarif Augs. Zofie trusts her with her life. Dean Foster - The assassin she paired with when sent to Paris to help Katherine Frye on a mission. She adores Dean and his partner Nick. Lovers - There was Sarah, a fellow Assassin who she had a relationship with. Sarah died saving Zofie's life. Her ideal partner is someone she doesn't have to hide who she is with, who accepts her completely. Who has a similar sense of humour to her and is as passionate about the same things as she is.

23. What do they want from a partner? What do they think and feel of sex? Acceptance, loyalty and love. Someone who is her equal in both physicality and mind. They very much enjoy sex, but also enjoy just being close to those they care deeply for.

24. What social groups and activities does your character attend? What role do they like to play? What role do they actually play, usually? She doesn't really belong to any social groups. She likes to keep to herself or with those she fully trusts in her own time, which is short thanks to what she does. She plays what ever role her mission requires -Sometimes high society socialite daughter of the owner of property company, sometimes well bred secret service agent, sometimes specialist for hire.

25. What are their hobbies and interests? She took up silversmithing and jewellery making as a hobby to help her relearn fine dexterity in her hands. She enjoys decorating and interior design often enjoying that part of her cover job. She has a great interest in ancient history, particularly Egyptian but also Celtic. Loves to read factual books, listen to music and sometimes cook.

26. What does your character’s home look like? Personal taste? Clothing? Hair? Appearance? Zofie has a home in Prague. No86 Libuse apartments. Mostly dark red or grey painted walls with dark wood floor and furniture and white ceilings, with a large contemporary chandelier as focus in the living area. Soft furnishings are in shades of black and gold, including a plush sofa, and bed coverings. There is a white pologon eagle sculpture on one wall, and her secret room has her collection of antique weapons on display. Her tastes could be considered leaning towards gothic, but with a modern minimalist taste. She loves to combine very modern with antique and has a thing for Art Deco furniture. Her appearance is high end. Sticks to black, red and white clothing, something she developed through the Coterie, as those are the traditional colours of the old Brotherhood. She likes that nod to the past. Plus she loves the colour red. Her bob length hair is crimson red. She favours smokey eye makeup and either bare lips or stained for longevity. Some of her makeup is semi permanent to save her time and effort.

27. How do they relate to their appearance? How do they wear their clothing? Style? Quality? She enjoys some fashion but follows her own style. She prefers small independent designers. She enjoys high quality clothing when she isnt in her custom armour (which she helped design). In her downtime she wears relaxed clothing, soft stretch jeans with slouchy relaxed tops and bralettes. When out incognito, she wears a white coat that allows her assassin hood that's attached to her tactical vest to sit on top.

28. Who is your character’s mate? How do they relate to him or her? How did they make their choice? Mate as in partner? Currently no one but that will change. See 23 above for why she would go for him.

29. What is your character’s weaknesses? Hubris? Pride? Controlling? Stubbornness and pride.

30. Are they holding on to something in the past? Can he or she forgive? She can never forgive the Templars for their ideology and will fight them. Her special anger is towards Madam Photographie, or Vivienne, Rebecca, de Crussel, the one who orchestrated the attack that forced her to become augmented, killing her hawk and lover in the attack.

31. Does your character have children? How do they feel about their parental role? About the children? How do the children relate? No, no children and she can't have any as her womb was damaged in the attack and removed.

32. How does your character react to stress situations? Defensively? Aggressively? Evasively? Mostly calmly. She is highly trained to keep her head in stressful situations. She will be aggressive only to survive a situation. That changes if fire is involved. She has repressed her PTSD from the attack, but large amounts of fire bring it back, then she can panic.

33. Do they drink? Take drugs? What about their health? Yes to drink. No need for recreational drugs, no interest. She has a Sentinel system so their health is top notch.

34. Does your character feel self-righteous? Revengeful? Contemptuous? She has a sense of self righteousness yes, considering what she knows. She fully believes in the cause of the Coterie.

35. Do they always rationalize errors? How do they accept disasters and failures?

She is pretty accepting of errors as she knows things don't always go by the book. But she hates failure as she sees it as a personal failing not being able to adapt to a situation. If the failure isn't her fault, she can lash out.

36. Do they like to suffer? Like to see other people suffering? She'd say no, but deep down she knows she wouldn't lift a finger if Vivienne was in harms way, taking pleasure in watching that woman suffer for what she did.

37. How is your character’s imagination? Daydreaming a lot? Worried most of the time? Living in memories? She doesn't need to imagine things, the Animus can often let her relive aspects of the past. But that just adds to her sense of wonder for the people of the past's lives. Her imagination goes into her creative outlets - jewellery making and interior design.

38. Are they basically negative when facing new things? Suspicious? Hostile? Scared? Enthusiastic? She is trained to deal with changing situations. Able to adapt to new locations with ease. She is always suspicious though, until she knows she can trust a situation or person. But she meets any new challenge with enthusiasm.

39. What do they like to ridicule? What do they find stupid? Incompetence mostly. She has little time for it, especially when those in power have it.

40. How is their sense of humor? Do they have one? Sarcastic and very British.

41. Is your character aware of who they are? Strengths? Weaknesses? Idiosyncrasies? Capable of self-irony? She knows her strengths and some of her weaknesses, though she ignores her PTSD, which can bite her sometimes. She knows she is in a unique position and how her very nature is an irony - She kills to protect life.

42. What does your character want most? What do they need really badly, compulsively? What are they willing to do, to sacrifice, to obtain? She wants the Illuminati/Templars to be destroyed, though deep down she knows those in power will always try to control the masses. She is willing to die for the cause though.

43. Does your character have any secrets? If so, are they holding them back? She has many secrets, only sharing some with those she trusts.

44. How badly do they want to obtain their life objectives? How do they pursue them? See 42.

45. Is your character pragmatic? Think first? Responsible? All action? A visionary? Passionate? Quixotic? She is mostly pragmatic when it comes to her mission, though she isn't without compassion and will do what ever she can to prevent innocents getting harmed as is one of the main tenets of the Creed.

46. Is your character tall? Short? What about size? Weight? Posture? How do they feel about their physical body? She is 5'7" athletic even before augmentation due to vigorous training. She always carries herself well in public, though wont flaunt her augments. She was accepting of her augments as had agreed to them prior to her Injuries, though it had taken her a year to get used to them. She admires the work that's gone into them, finding them works of art. She also likes she grew 2 inches through them!

47. Do they want to project an image of a younger, older, more important person? Does they want to be visible or invisible? She is willing to protect all innocents, though sometimes she wonders why when they are idiotic. She often appears visible, but when she is seen she is in fact hiding behind a persona. her real self is often hidden away.

48. How are your character’s gestures? Vigorous? Weak? Controlled? Compulsive? Energetic? Sluggish? She is controlled in most ways. Elegant and fluid. When in a relaxed state she can sometimes become more energetic, but it is a rare occurrence.

49. What about voice? Pitch? Strength? Tempo and rhythm of speech? Pronunciation? Accent? Her natural accent is soft English with a hint of Welsh, but she can change her accent as needed, being more cultured under the Sofia persona. It's quite melodic, not too high. (see Emily Blunt's voice for reference.)

50. What are the prevailing facial expressions? Sour? Cheerful? Dominating? As if she knows something you don't. It is often either a mona lisa type smile, or 'resting bitch face', though the latter is often due to her actual syncing with her drone Zrak and seeing through it's eyes.

50 Questions - Moira

Decided to do the 50 questions to get to know the character, at least how I write her.

What does your character do when they think no one’s looking?

Air play her violin, or dance. This nerd used to go to cyber raves back in her younger days and she’s still got the moves.

Checks her puppy cam to check in on Maddox at home.

What’s the one thing your character would save in a fire (beyond the necessities)?

Her favorite rabbit, Bonnie. It’s her control test subject for all of her experiments and unfortunately she’s grown rather fond of the little furball.

Her Doberman, named Maddox. He is best boy and the only thing to unconditionally love her.

Who’s on speed dial?

Angela

Gabriel(Reaper), if someone needs reaping lol

Your character gets turned down for their dream job. What’s their second choice?

She would’ve become a basement made geneticist whether Overwatch gave her the job or not.

But a professional violinist would be a close second.

What would they tell their ten-year-old self?

Stay weird kid. The strangest people oftentimes are the best people.

Where would they want to go on a first date?

Moira loves to cook, like obsessively loves to cook. So she would make dinner or would appreciate it if her date cooked for her as well. Someone’s cooking says alot about a person.

What’s the best advice they’ve ever received?

No one cares. Not in a sadistic way, but in the, be weird and do your own thing kinda way. Because no one cares about it as much as you do and most people aren’t even paying attention to notice the weird.

What’s the worst advice they’ve ever received?

“Just find that part of your brain and switch it on/off.”

What’s one physical detail they’d change about themselves?

Pre-serum incident, nothing. Moira revels in her genetic mutations, such as her heterochromia.

Post-serum, the damned cursed arm.

When was the last time they were held? By who?

When she last fell asleep on the couch next to Angela, nodding off and Angela just tugs her to rest against her warmth.

What’s their favorite thing about their favorite season?

Summer back home is her favorite season. But specifically how the wildlife and vegetation just become so vibrant for those two short months where the sky isn’t as grey as usual. She takes Maddox on many hikes in the Irish countryside.

Their wallet gets stolen. What do they do?

Activates the tracking chip in it, hunts down who stole it and might or might not teach that person a lesson.

Prioritize: Love, money, power, knowledge?

Knowledge, its limitless and vast. Like a drug to Moira.

Money, for her research

Love, she’s become sentimental over the years

Power, now this one might surprise you, but Moira isn’t the woman on the throne kind of person when it comes to power. She’s the one who does so from the backlines waiting for her efforts to come to fruition.

What’s something nobody knows about them?

She is an avid appreciator of fine clothing and arts. A collector of fine artwork.

That she has her dog, Maddox.

What’s in their fridge?

Fresh ingredients for cooking meals. Her favorite time of day is when she can come home and be at peace cooking a good meal for herself.

What (creature, object, substance) are they most disgusted by?

Humanity. Humans, more so men, have been the single most detrimental beings on the face of this Earth in all its years.

What’s their second worst habit?

It’s a toss up between whiskey and smoking.

What are the victory conditions for their life?

To solve the full mystery of genetics and how to prevent genetic deterioration, regeneration is the key to immortality.

In the end, your character fails to save the day. Assuming they survive, what do they do?

Shut down. Isolate and end up drunk locked up in her apartment. Most likely spending alone time with Maddox.

Your character is charged with a crime they didn’t commit. What do they do?

She either calls Angela to bail her out, or decides to absolutely verbally tear into the officers who are accusing her of a crime.

Your character is charged with a crime they did commit. What was the crime?

Probably either assault or murder. Let’s be real, someone tries to start something with her, she’s gonna finish it decisively.

How would you describe your character’s life in one sentence?

All my big mistakes are when I try to second-guess or please others, my work is always stronger when I get very selfish about it.

What important statistic would they want displayed above them?

Lives saved thanks to her research. For gloating purposes solely lol

What’s the first thing they would buy if they won the lottery?

All of the money would go back into funding her research. No question.

What profession do they most respect?

Anything with manual labor. She recognizes how spoiled medical professionals are with not having physically demanding jobs positions, and just how much the laborers make the world go round.

What childhood injustice did they never get over?

Being bullied for being the ‘nerdy’ kiddo. She still to this day tries to prove to herself that she’s ‘cool’, aka sophisticated in her older years.

How would they handle having a panic attack?

She wouldn’t know what in the hell was happening. Moira doesn’t strike me as someone who would have to deal with them ever, so for something to have brought her to that point, it’d be a full meltdown.

Your character is burdened with an inconvenient superpower. What is it?

I think unfortunately for post serum Moira, it’d be the uncontrollable biotic energy her arm produces. Imagine being in the middle of trying to delicately use a piece of equipment and suddenly the energy just destroys it.

If they died and could come back as any person, animal, or object, what would they be?

She wouldn’t want to come back to this world. She’d want resolution and an end to be final.

What’s the best meal they’ve ever had?

Her self made recipe for barmbrack.

Where would they stand at a dinner party?

If not trying to impress a particular lady, or trying to humiliate some power hungry and cocky man, she’d be on the edges of the party people watching and sipping her wine or whiskey.

Who would they invite to the dinner party?

Angela would be first and foremost.

What makes a perfect day for your character?

Waking up a bit later than normal, cuddling in the late morning with Maddox, then taking him for a long hike in the Irish highlands.

If given the opportunity, would they want to know how and when they died?

She wouldn’t care either way. She’s accepted that death is all a part of life, and being up in her years, she knows that at any point today can be her last.

What’s the one thing they’ve always wanted to do? Why haven’t they done it yet?

Perform professionally with her violin. It started out as a thinking habit, to help distract her mind when she was stumped with an experiment. But turned into a true love for the instrument. Unfortunately, she’s been told she plays too clinically and without a soul, which had deterred her from pursuing it as a career option.

What do they tend to joke about?

Life and death.

The inadequacies of men.

What’s off limits?

Touching Maddox without permission.

Tampering with her data.

Whose wedding would they cross the world to attend? Whose funeral?

She’s not close enough with others around her to warrant that extreme.

What impossible choice did they make that turned out to be the right one? The wrong one?

Right choice: To introduce herself intimately with Angela.

Wrong choice: The desperate need for a human test subject, so deciding to use herself. Aka the serum incident.

Your character has someone to hype them up. What would they say to get everyone excited about your character?

Angela of course would state how compassionate Moira actually is. She would try to make sure they weren’t either scared or annoyed with her.

What recurring dream does your character have?

Receiving the award for finishing her life’s work. Finding the true cure for degenerative cells, infinite cell regeneration and immortality.

What is the meaning of life to your character?

The meaning of her life is to crack the genetic sequence to immortality.

What book does your character pretend to have read?

Any publication her ‘colleagues’ claim.

Someone takes undeserved credit for your character’s work. What do they do?

Moira wouldn’t stand by and allow them to take the credit. She would systematically disprove their involvement and humiliate their reputation for the foreseeable future.

What controversial belief or view does your character hold? Why? Do they hide it?

Humans are no different than the animals they try to dominate. Just because we have a higher evolutionary intelligence, doesn’t put us as the apex predator or in our own category from animals. She states this many times with regards to when men try peacock.

Your character is at a theme park. Where do they go first?

The central annex to park herself and people watch. Observing social dynamics and interactions in larger data pools.

What’s your character’s favorite name?

diabhal ann an clisgeadh (her mother called her this when she became obsessed with genetic sciences.)

Teufel in Verkleidung (by Angela when she;s being a brat)

What’s the biggest compliment they’d give themselves?

That she is truly at the height of her field, outmatching and dominating everyone else in it.

How does your character feel about bugs?

She LOVES them. Their genetic diversity is mystifying.

If your character could hit a reset button on their life, would they?

Not a chance. She’d be right back to where she is now.

Maybe the only moment would be to choose NOT to leave Overwatch and Angela.
