some misc headcanons from discord! i asked some people in my private server to give me stuff to think about and come up with headcanons for, so here are the results! they're under the cut
in a modern universe, what movies would they like?
i think a majority of them are into horror films, anastasia and gabriella probably gravitate a little less toward horror and more towards romance (anastasia would never admit to liking romance. she can sit through a horror film with a straight face she just isn't too fond of the genre, slasher stuff though……)
andok probably doesn't like horror at all and would get sick watching it, he probably prefers rom coms, i can also see him liking mystery and silent films
nathan and dexter are the weird ones, they complain abt watching horror films but are usually glued to the screen, but actually they prolly prefer stuff like disney films, primarily animated content with less blood/gore/swearing
also andok and gabriella bond over liking musicals, it just seems like they would
which of your ocs is the best cook? who is the worst?
most of them are pretty decent cooks!! it mainly comes down to who grew up with family actually lol, so johnathon would definitely be the best. i'd say zara can cook but she pretty much only does it for herself and it's usually pretty light, she would get too overwhelmed if she had to cook for a crowd (bad management skills) and johnathon excels at the sort of thing, although he's more partial to cooking meat dishes and he definitely fails at things like baking
as far as baking goes, andok and gabriella are definitely the best when it comes to that!! though gabriella is a lot cleaner about it (andok makes a mess every time, he does not care)
dallas intentionally tries to avoid cooking as much as possible (he's had toxic masculinity drilled into his head very hard and its like 'nuh uh men can't cook'), but he can actually cook pretty well when he's basically forced into it, he actually does enjoy cooking to a degree but it usually depends on if he's making something for himself or for others
one of dexter's dreams it to be a stay at home husband for ophelia, to make up for the fact that she's running around literally all the time helping other people; he probably has honed his cooking skills for the day when he's ready to do that
anastasia is the exception though she can't cook, she gets most of her food from either scavenging things that are safe to eat raw, whatever is made at the kingdomsville eatery, or rations from the guards' quarters, do not let her near a cooking pot. she will fuck it up by simply being near it

Do any of your OCs believe in the concept of a "just war" or do they believe that all conflict is to be deplored? Could they conceive of a justifiable reason for one nation to invade another - perhaps to free oppressed people or prevent the development of a dangerous technology? Or would they only support a war of defense against an aggressor?
[OC Questions on the Seven Colours of Medieval Heraldry Meme]
it's a mixed bag when it comes to my ocs, especially the main cast of the journal. i would say the cast is evenly split between 'war bad' and 'war necessary', not necessarily war good. all of them are equipped enough to understand that war is unavoidable in their world and their society and they're forced to live with that.
Do any of your OCs believe in the concept of a "just war" or do they believe that all conflict is to be deplored?
andok, johnathon, dexter, and nathan all share the idea that war is deplorable unless it is absolutely needed, though andok prefers to avoid it entirely due to his pacifism. in short, that means that they do believe war can be justified.
dexter is the most firm in this belief, though johnathon is also learning to follow this mindset as well. after the destruction of their original city, they take their current home's safety to the extremes, to the point that dexter is often unwilling to allow outsiders into their city for fear of tragedy striking. johnathon is different in that he only keeps himself at an arms length from outsiders, while still allowing them entry. he gives people the opportunity to prove that they can be good before he declares them evil and/or a threat, something that dexter does to a large degree.
Could they conceive of a justifiable reason for one nation to invade another - perhaps to free oppressed people or prevent the development of a dangerous technology?
generally andok, johnathon, and dexter fall into the idea that they should only go to war if their city is at great risk, but they're also willing to leap into battle if they have the opportunity to help another city, which is what the first book in the series heavily talks about. while their major focus is on keeping their home safe, they're not willing to ignore what is happening on the outside because it could affect them as well.
nathan is an exception to this rule because while he does also agree that they should go to war if their city is at risk, he has a very particular moral code that decides whether or not he's willing to help another city with their problems. generally it goes on a scale of 'will it affect me' or 'will it affect someone i care about'. for most issues, he considers them unimportant and will only make himself involved if he's told to be involved.
in short terms, he's not opposed to the idea of helping others, but he has a bit of a tier list for what constitutes as needing his help. but, nathan is the youngest in the cast (being only 22), so there is potential that this mindset could change as he gets older and experiences more of the story ahead of him.
Or would they only support a war of defense against an aggressor?
this is the side of the argument that anastasia, dallas, gabriella, and zara fall into. their ultimate priority is protecting their city, their home, which means they are entirely unwilling to partake in war for any other reasons unless they are forced into it. considering that johnathon is the head guard of new kingdomsville, that means that they follow what he believes should be done. and of course, that does include doing much more than just protecting the city.
gabriella is more likely to be swayed in this mindset due to her original circumstances (explained more in the first book, avoiding details for the sake of no major spoilers). she's afraid of the concept of war and much more firmly falls into pacifism than andok would. however, the main reason she partakes in it is in an effort to protect herself and her livelihood, and that also involves protecting her home city from aggressors.

OC Questions on the Seven Colours of Medieval Heraldry.
A little list of OC questions based on colour symbolism in Medieval English Heraldry. This is a very simplified version of the subject, which is unlikely to impress any serious Medievalists and is intended more for the purposes of entertainment than education.
Tumblr media
Gules (Red) - Military Fortitude and Magnanimity.
Does your OC have any experience in the military? Perhaps they come from a long line of soldiers or army leaders? Or were they conscripted or press-ganged into an army at a young age? If they have not had a formal position in an army, then what is their view of the military mindset and hierarchies they have observed?
Does your OC believe in the concept of a "just war" or do they believe that all conflict is to be deplored? Could they conceive of a justifiable reason for one nation to invade another - perhaps to free an oppressed people or prevent the development of a dangerous technology? Or would they only support a war of defence against an aggressor?
Is your OC usually magnanimous in victory - whether against a defeated foe, or against a friend in a game or competition? Or perhaps they enjoy exulting in their success at the expense of others? Perhaps with ribald mockery or spiteful vengeance?
What has been the most difficult thing your OC has ever had to forgive (assuming they have ever done so)? Did they do this of their own accord? Or only after they felt justice had been done or penitence suitably demonstrated?
Does your OC harbour resentment towards a particular person, group or faction? Or are they perhaps part of a widely resented group themselves?
Azure (Blue) - Loyalty and Truth.
Does your OC have a guiding principle by which they live their life - such as duty, self-restraint or vengeance? Has this ever been tested by circumstance or challenged by another person?
Is your OC loyal to a particular nation, clan or social group? How far would they go in ensuring the safety and success of this faction?
How confident is your OC of the loyalty of their companions, lovers or followers? Do they ever feel tempted to test this through spying upon them? Or by engineering circumstances where their loyalty might be tested?
Is your OC honest about their true loyalties? Or are they happy to feign belief in a cause or leader in hopes of material (or other) reward?
Does your OC believe that people should only believe or take inspiration from something if it is actually true? Or are there circumstances where a motivating lie is to be preferred to an awkward or uncomfortable truth?
Sable (Black) - Constancy and Grief.
Is your OC consistent in their behaviour and responses? Or do others see them as unpredictable or even capricious at times? Are there factors at play dictating their reactions of which others might be unaware?
Has your OC always been fundamentally the same person? Or would someone from their past struggle to recognise the person they have become?
Is your OC comfortable in expressing their grief? Such as by crying at funerals or memorial events? Or do they always keep their emotions intensely private? Or perhaps not express them at all?
Has your OC always feared the loss of the same thing - perhaps a loved one, a valuable artifact or a carefully nurtured reputation? Or do they look back with amusement on what once felt important to them?
Does your OC believe that they will be mourned when they die? Or do they suspect they will be quickly forgotten - or even hope that this will be the case?
Vert (Green) - Hope, Joy and Fidelity.
Does your OC feel comfortable expressing feelings of joy - do they laugh or smile easily? Or do they have a constantly stern or dour countenance? If so is this entirely genuine? Or something they feel they need to maintain for the sake of appearances?
How hopeful is your OC about the future? Do they see things as becoming better in general - either for them personally or the world at large? Or do they feel as if decline and disaster are inevitable and all that can be done is to delay the final end for as long as possible?
What makes your OC laugh (if they laugh at all)? Do they have an intellectual or ironic sense of humour? Or do they prefer ribald jokes or slapstick routines?
Does your OC believe in the importance of fidelity in romantic relationships? Or does it not worry them so long as a lover or spouse never discovers their peccadillos in this regard? Conversely do they worry or obsess over the loyalty of their partner or partners?
If your OC could be granted one wish for the future, but could only wish on behalf of another person, who would they choose? And for what would they wish?
Purpure (Purple) - Majesty, Sovereignty and Justice.
Does your OC find it easy to express deference or homage to someone of high social standing? Or is this something they would only do if it benefitted them directly? Or for the sake of a scheme or intrigue?
Is your OC comfortable in the higher echelons of society, such as aristocratic functions or assemblies of the rich and powerful? Or do they prefer to avoid these events if possible?
Does your OC feel that exchanges of ideas or customs between nations or cultures can be positive? Or do they fear the dilution or devaluing of one culture by another? Has there ever been a foreign cultural practice they have adapted for themselves? Or are they fiercely loyal to their own cultural inheritance?
Does your OC have a strong belief in the importance of justice? If so what does justice mean to them? Do they follow the philosophy of "an eye for an eye"? Or are they careful in distinguishing between justice and revenge? Is this the case even if they consider themselves to be the injured party?
Does your OC believe that there can ever be fair and just relations between nations or tribal groups? Or do they assert that might will always make right when it comes to interactions between such factions?
Or (Gold) - Worthy Ambition.
Does your OC have a long-term goal or ambition to which they are constantly working? Or do they tend to bounce chaotically from situation to situation, with no clear plan or sense of what the future may bring?
Does your OC have any wishes or desires of which they are ashamed or otherwise wish to keep secret? Or do they loudly proclaim their every wish to those around them?
Is your OC part of a wider group or organisation working towards a shared goal? If so, then do they always agree with their associates on the correct strategy to adopt? Or are there frequently tensions or disagreements in this regard?
Does your OC have political ambitions, or a strong desire for power or influence? Or are they content to leave the messy business of governance and politicking to others and focus on smaller or more immediate goals?
What does your OC consider to be the noblest or most admirable ambition for a person to hold? Perhaps spreading a particular religious faith? Or improving the lives of the poor? Or even perfecting their own martial skill?
Argent (Silver) - Peace and Sincerity.
Does your OC feel comfortable during times of peace? Or do they only truly know who they are during times of war or conflict? Do they always need an "enemy" to focus upon? Or even just a rival?
Is there a certain person, group or faction with whom your OC believes peace would never be possible? Is this due to their diametrically opposing beliefs? Their historical actions? Or their fundamental untrustworthiness?
Does your OC find it easy to be sincere when expressing their views or feelings? Or do they prefer to adopt an air of detached irony? If so, then why is this the case? Do they fear rejection or mockery by others?
Do others find your OC easy to believe? Or is there something about them that makes others distrustful or cynical about their motives or trustworthiness?
Is your OC a pacifist? Or have they ever had pacifist sympathies? If they have changed their position on such things then what caused this shift? If they reject pacifist arguments, perhaps because they believe that violence can be justified in self-defence, then how do they respond to those who believe in pursuing peace at any cost? Do they see them as weak or naïve? Or as idealists whose ideas deserve serious consideration?

Herbal OC Questions.
Tumblr media
A little list of OC questions based on the folklore of herbs in Northern Europe. Please note that this is by no means an exhaustive list and the symbolism and use of herbs changed over time and varied between different communities (for example in the Early Middle Ages, Parsley was associated with mortality and death, but by the Renaissance and later it became associated with lasting pleasure and festivity).
Rosemary - Memory, Mental Acuity and Recollection of Information.
What is your OC's earliest memory? Is it one they would sooner forget or do they recall it with fondness? Do they genuinely remember it? Or have they just been told about it so often by their family or community that they can picture it clearly?
Does your OC find it easy to remember names or faces? Do they need to write things down in order to remember them properly? Perhaps they rely upon others to remind them?
Has your OC ever memorised information for use in public - such as a prepared speech, a song they have practiced, or a story that is part of their cultural heritage?
What is something that can instantly take your OC back to a previous time in their lives, whether happy or sad? A distinctive scent? A piece of music? The taste of a specific food?
What impression does your OC leave upon others? How are they generally remembered by those who have met them? Is this how they would actually want to be remembered?
Sage - Prosperity, Prudence and the Accumulation of Wealth.
How important is money or material wealth to your OC? Do they believe it is possible to ever have "enough"? Or is there no upper limit to their desire for riches?
Is your OC a spendthrift? Or do they carefully consider each minor expenditure? Do they generally have a sensible idea of how much something should cost? Or are they easily manipulated by cunning merchants and beguiling promotions?
Has your OC ever experienced a dramatic change in their personal wealth or financial security? Were their family once very poor or very wealthy compared to others in their society? If they were once wealthy and are now impoverished, then who do they blame for their reduced circumstances? If they were once poor and now find themselves wealthy, to what do they credit this change in fortune?
How sympathetic is your OC to those who are poorer or in more desperate circumstances than themselves? Do they see them as blameless victims of circumstance? Perhaps they might even work to try to alleviate the material hardships of others? Or do they sneer at the poor? Perhaps seeing them as a resource to exploit or simply as an expendable nuisance?
How does your OC obtain money? Do they have a regular income? Or do they live off inherited wealth? Do they earn money from different jobs or quests? Or are they reliant on the kindness and charity of others?
Sweet Marjoram - Love, Happiness and Fidelity in Marriage.
To what degree is your OC dependent upon other people for their happiness? Are they relatively self-sufficient? Perhaps even mistrustful of others? Or do they need to be surrounded by friends or in the company of their family in order to be happy?
What does your OC believe to be the ingredients of a happy marriage or relationship? Do they believe that they could provide these things to another person? Do others see their expectations as reasonable? Or are they quite demanding of themselves and any potential partner?
Could your OC ever forgive a lover or spouse who was unfaithful to them? If they have an open relationship then is this reliant on them not hearing about their partner's peccadillos? Or is learning about their sexual adventures all part of the fun?
Through what gift or gesture might your OC signify their love or devotion to another? Does this reflect the culture in which they were raised? Their personality? Or simply the preferences of the partner in question?
Does your OC believe it is acceptable to admire another's beauty, even if they are in a committed relationship with someone else? Do they feel guilty if they find themselves admiring or lusting after an attractive stranger? Or do they believe it is no issue when they find their eye wandering, but would be outraged were their lover or spouse to do the same?
Lemon Balm - Sleep, Relaxation and the Banishment of Care.
Does your OC find it easy to relax? Or are they constantly tense or anxious? Has this always been the case or have they experienced significant trauma or harm in the past which has made them particularly fearful or tense?
Does your OC have a regular sleep routine? Or does it vary depending upon circumstance? Do they generally sleep for the same amount of time every night (or day)?
What does your OC do to unwind or to calm themselves? Do they use alcohol or drugs? Or do they meditate or pray? If they are in a relationship then are there things their lover or spouse knows will reduce their tension - perhaps through providing a listening ear, a relaxing massage or sexual release?
What is your OC's greatest source of anxiety? Does it relate to how they are perceived by others? Or their ability to adhere to their own standards or values? Or are they most afraid of harm coming to those they care about?
Does your OC have any recurring dreams? If so then do they attribute any meaning to these? Do they find themselves reliving previous experiences? Or witnessing visions of a possible future? Do they ever talk about their dreams to others?
Catmint - Ferocity, Courage and Quarrelsomeness.
How quick is your OC to anger? Can they fly into a fury, seemingly out of nowhere? Or does it gradually build like a gathering storm?
What motivates your OC to be courageous? A sense of honour or duty? A need to maintain a reputation for fearlessness? A bloody-minded refusal to be pushed around? A wish to protect the vulnerable? The need to win against all odds?
What subject is your OC most likely to argue about? And who are they most likely to argue about it with?
Does your OC often bicker with others? Do they complain frequently? Is this due to genuine dissatisfaction or anger? Or is it done in a slightly tongue in cheek fashion?
When was your OC the most angry they have ever been? What about this situation made them so angry? Was it the person who provoked them? The injustice of the situation? Or their own powerlessness in the face of circumstance?
Sorrel - Affability, Pleasantness and Agreeableness.
How easy is it for others to get along with your OC? Are they easy-going and tolerant? Or stern and exacting? Do they often find themselves picking fault with others and criticising them? Or are they able to view their faults and foibles philosophically - or even with affection?
How quick is your OC to forgive the transgressions of others? Do they bear grudges for extended periods? How important is it that the other person admits their fault?
What do your OC's friends like most about them? What might they consider their "best" quality?
How polite is your OC? Are they courteous and considerate of others? Or gruff and tactless? If they are polished in their manners then is this always a positive quality? Or perhaps something calculated and employed whilst engaged in political or social intrigue? If they are rough in their manners then is this always a bad thing? Or does their lack of external gloss actually reflect their honesty and integrity?
Does your OC always need to be right in every discussion? Or are they sometimes willing to concede a point for the sake of social harmony (or simply a quiet life)? Are there some topics upon which they will never compromise their position? Or can they usually simply shrug and let others be wrong? Does this vary depending on whether the subject is relatively trivial or of great importance to them personally?
Sweet Woodruff - Humility, Modesty and Service to Others.
Is your OC ever boastful or prone to vainglory? Is there something they have achieved that they can't help mentioning at any given opportunity? Do they like to remind others that they are particularly beautiful, powerful or smart?
Is your OC willing to help others, even without receiving praise or reward? Or will they only stir themselves to assist another person if they stand to benefit in some fashion from doing do?
How does your OC respond when someone praises them or pays them a compliment? Do they become embarrassed? Do they minimise their own achievements or even change the subject? Or do they revel in the praise and admiration of others? Are there some things they are more comfortable with being praised for than others? Might they be quite content to be lauded for their martial skill or academic ability, but mortified to be complimented for their beauty or sexual allure?
Does your OC see themselves as being of particular importance compared to the general population? Do they consider themselves to have greater value than the common folk? Perhaps because they are capable of achieving things that regular people are not? Or because they were born into a position of wealth and power? Or even because they have seen things that would drive ordinary people to madness or despair? Conversely, if your OC maintains that they are no more special than anyone else, how realistic is this position? How different are they really when compared to the average person? Are they actually in denial about their own significance?
How much credit does your OC give to others for their own success? Do they see themselves as having achieved things only through cooperation and working with others? Or are they convinced that they have accomplished everything purely through their own efforts and ability?

Winter Greenery OC Questions.
Tumblr media
A little list of OC questions based on the folklore of winter greenery in Northern Europe. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all symbolic meanings, but rather just a small selection for entertainment, rather than educational, purposes.
Fir: Endurance and Hope.
Is your OC generally optimistic about the future?  Or do they tend to prepare for the worst, whilst hoping for the best? Or do they even take a generally pessimistic view of the way things will likely unfold?
Does your OC actively attempt to nurture or inspire hope in others – even when things look particularly dire? Or are they inclined to be more blunt with their assessment of a situation?
Would your OC ever fight for a lost cause on principle?  Or would they give up – or even change allegiance – in order to ensure the best outcome for themselves?
What is an example of something (or someone) to which your OC has been stubbornly loyal, through thick and thin?  Was it worth it in the end?  Could it ever have been?
How many setbacks can (or will) your OC endure before they give up on a course of action?  Or alternatively, how many times can they be let down or betrayed before they turn their back upon another person?
Holly: Protection and Luck.
Is your OC protective of those to whom they are close?  Are they ever somewhat over-protective?  Or do they prefer to let people suffer the consequences of their mistakes?  Perhaps because they see this as a useful life lesson?
Does your OC carry a lucky charm of some sort?  What makes them think it’s lucky?  Or do they not believe in luck, yet find themselves unable to part with it all the same?
Has your OC ever taken on a burden or suffered harm to protect another from suffering its consequences?  Did the person in question realise that they had done so?  What was their motivation when doing this?
What does your OC believe to be the luckiest event in their life?  Is this an accurate assessment?  Or was there actually more than simply luck at play?
Does your OC believe that they were historically let down by those who should have protected them?  If so then what has been the impact of this upon them?  If not then have they always been kept safe by others?  Has anyone ever sacrificed themselves to protect them?
Ivy: Fidelity and Loyalty.
Has your OC ever been unfaithful in a relationship?  Could they ever be tempted by the physical charms of another?  Or have they ever been surprised by how little they are tempted by others, at least once they embraced their current lover?
What inspires loyalty in your OC?  Will they follow someone purely based upon duty or rank? Or are there certain qualities towards which they are drawn?  Or perhaps there ways by which another person must prove themselves before earning their loyalty?
Has another person ever offered to leave their spouse or lover for your OC?  What was it about them that this person found so hard to resist? How did they feel about it at the time? 
Does your OC feel any abiding connection to their place of birth?  Has this ever been challenged by conflicting loyalties?  How are they viewed by those currently living in their society of origin?
Does your OC remain steadfastly loyal to those who have helped them on their journey?  Or are they quick to dispense with those who are no longer of use to them?
Mistletoe: Peace and Friendship.
Who was your OC’s first friend?  What drew them to each other?  Were they expecting to get along? Or was it a surprise to them both?
Does your OC find it easy to make friends?   What barriers are there to them doing so?  Has this changed over time?
Do other people experience your OC as having a “peaceful” energy? Or are they inclined to restlessness - or even fractiousness?  Do others find them relaxing company?
To what extent does your OC believe in the perfectibility of mankind?  Do they believe that they are playing a part, no matter how small, in ushering in a new utopian age of co-operation and peace?  Or do they consider that people are intrinsically flawed and that the best that can be hoped for is a series of trade-offs between conflicting values?
Who is your OCs most unlikely friend? What made their friendship so unexpected?
Pine: Healing and Longevity.
What is the worst physical injury or illness that your OC has ever suffered?  How long did it take them to recover?  Does it still have an impact upon them now?
What is the worst emotional or spiritual wound that your OC has ever suffered?  What was the long-term impact of this experience? What helped them to move on from it (if they ever have)?
Does your OC make a good patient?  Or are they resistant to being given medical treatment - or even agreeing to rest?
Does your OC expect to live a long and fruitful life?  Or do they consider themselves to already be living on borrowed time?
Does your OC believe it is better to burn out than to fade away?  Or do they perhaps pretend to believe this, when actually they would be quite happy to retire peacefully one day?
Birch: Rebirth and Regeneration.
Has your OC ever experienced something that changed them irrevocably?  If so, then how do they view the person they were before?
Does your OC believe that sometimes a person needs to hit rock bottom before they can begin to rebuild their life?  Has this ever been their personal experience?  Or would they rather spare someone suffering, even if it meant they failed to learn from their mistakes over and over again?
Does your OC recover quickly from injuries?  Or has it got harder for them to keep bouncing back as they’ve got older?  If so, is this something they would ever admit?
Has your OC ever made a heroic or unexpected comeback from a dire situation?  What helped them to do so?
Has your OC ever been part of a wider cultural or spiritual renaissance?  Perhaps following the defeat of an occupying force?  Or the rediscovery of long-lost wisdom?  Or even a reinterpretation of existing traditions?

Sweets and Puddings OC Questions.
Tumblr media
A little list of OC questions based on the symbolism of sweets and puddings in dreams and the imagination. Please note that the information in this list is for entertainment purposes only!
Chocolate: Comfort, Warmth, and Love.
How good is your OC at comforting others? Do they feel comfortable around someone who is crying? Does it depend on the age or gender of the person in question?
Do other people experience your OC as being particularly warm and approachable on first meeting them? Or do they initially (or even permanently) come across as cold or stand-offish?
What does your OC find comforting when they are distressed or anxious? Are they able to ask for this comfort from others? Or do they need to be alone?
Does your OC have someone in their life who makes them feel safe and comforted during difficult times? Is this person aware that your OC feels this way about them? Would your OC ever admit to doing so?
Does your OC ever comfort eat when they are unhappy? If so then what food do they find most comforting and why? If not, then what might they do instead?
Candy: Indulgence and Excess.
Does your OC have any "guilty pleasures"? Are they at all secretive or embarassed about these?
Is your OC ever prone to excessive indulgence in food, alcohol or other vices? Do they personally consider it excessive? Or is this purely the view of those observing their behaviour?
Does your OC find it easy to resist temptation? Are they always strong-willed and abstinent? Or does it depend upon the nature of the temptation in question?
For what (if anything) is your OC most greedy? Perhaps fame? Sexual satisfaction? Knowledge? Power? Or something else entirely?
Does your OC believe that it is possible to have too much of a good thing? Or is there no limit to their appetite for certain pleasures or luxuries?
Ice Cream: Playfulness and Childhood.
How accurately does your OC remember their own childhood? Was it a generally happy time? Or are there aspects which are painful or even traumatic to recall?
Does your OC take themselves particularly seriously? Are there times when they can take themselves lightly, but others when they demand respect? Do those around them ever view them as excessively dour and serious? Or even inordinately flippant and frivolous?
Does your OC have a good sense of humour? What kind of jokes do they find funny? Do they have a favourite joke themselves?
Is your OC inclined to play games of an evening? Or do they consider themselves rather above such diversions? Do they enjoy gambling? Or do they prefer games that allow them to perform?
At what point did your OC consider their childhood to be over? Was it a milestone in terms of age? Or did it follow a particular event? Did they feel ready for adulthood at that point?
Lollipops: Shortcuts and Risk of Failure.
Does your OC tend to plan things in meticulous detail? Or do they prefer to jump straight in and work things out as they go?
To what degree does your OC fear failure? Are they something of a perfectionist in all things? Or can they accept a chance of failure in some situations?
Does your OC place a lot of importance on doing things "properly"? Or are they more than willing to take shortcuts to achieve their goals?
What does your OC see as being their greatest failure? Does the memory of this still fill them with feelings of guilt or shame? Are their feelings of failure justified?
How willing is your OC to gamble? Are they more than happy to rely upon luck? Or will they only take a chance once they have stacked the odds in their favour as far as possible?
Cheesecake: Inner Healing and Realisation of Potential.
Has your OC fully realised their own potential? If not in their own view, then perhaps in the opinions of others?
Does your OC believe that people are marked for greatness from birth - perhaps by destiny, noble birth or cultural origin? Or do they believe that anyone can rise to renown through the quality of their character or the value of their efforts?
Has your OC fully healed from any historical experiences of loss or trauma? If not then do they believe it will ever be possible for them to do so? Conversely are they in denial regarding their own trauma and need for healing?
Is your OC someone who counsels or helps others heal themselves from abuse or trauma? Is this something they do consciously? Or is there something about their personality or presence that others experience as comforting or nurturing?
To what extent does your OC recognise the significance of emotional or spiritual harm? Are they able to recognise when another person is in distress? Or do they discount emotional suffering as being something that the strong should simply manage in silence and overcome alone?
Doughnuts: Recuperation and Reward.
Is your OC someone who finds it easy to relax? Or do they tend to always be busy and in need of external stimulation?
How would your OC reward someone who did a good deed for them? Do they feel comfortable being helped? Or do they hate feeling indebted to others?
Does your OC take the time necessary to recover fully from exertions or strain? Or do they sometimes push themselves to get back out out into the fray (literally or figuratively) before they are truly ready?
What has been the most emotionally rewarding experience for your OC so far? Have they admitted this to others (or to themselves)?
Does your OC believe that good deeds should be their own reward? Or do they prefer that appreciation be shown through generous material compensation?
Cupcakes: Joy, Celebration and Success.
How does your OC respond when they are feeling joyful or celebratory? Are they inclined to whoop and cheer? Or are they more understated and subdued?
Does your OC enjoy parties and festivals? Or do they find them somewhat overwhelming? Or even pointless or frivolous?
Is your OC able to acknowledge or celebrate the achievements of others? Or do they sometimes begrudge not being the centre of attention?
How would your OC choose to celebrate a major event or milestone (if they would celebrate it at all)? Would they prefer a quiet occasion with a friend or partner? Or would they enjoy as big an occasion as possible? Perhaps with many guests and much revelry?
How would your OC respond to being thrown a surprise party?

hello tumblr im back making 30 blogs again because i can't stop
if you don't know me uh hello!! i'm colt / hunter / revolver / kenny / uzi (he/they, see my pronouns page for neos)
professionally my pen name is hunter bunnyfields!! i'm a young audhd author and this blog is primarily dedicated to the series i'm most proud of;
The Journal
it started as a minecraft roleplay series but then i turned it into a book series, and it's much better this way (even if my primary refs at the moment are made in gacha club LMFAO), i do wanna make it into an animated series or a comic at some point in the future i just. need the funds for it lol
anyways enough rambling uh this blog is primarily my own personal fandom space, i wanna be able to interact with my fandom with their headcanons and what not but i don't wanna feel intrustive so if you have headcanons, fan-art, redesigns, rewrites, etc. that you wanna share with me feel free to! if you wanna ask stuff to the characters from the journal but you don't know who all is available, just know that every character in my toyhouse folder for the series can be asked questions about, even the deceased!
currently the journal is unreleased, but i am more than halfway through completing the first book and i will happily promote it here once it's done <3
in the mean time i'd love to see if others are interested in my work (even if it's not the journal) so i want to just kinda vibe out on this tumblr lol, if you want to reblog this post as a promo go ahead idm
my askbox is open for asks or headcanons or theories about my characters, whatever you want to send in! my submissions are closed just because i fear being sent graphic content, but if you have fan-art or what have you please feel free to tag either this blog or my main (@colttechn-l-gy) and i will happily do this to it (/pos)
Tumblr media
my special tags are under the cut if you wanna look for specific stuff
asks.txt = answered asks random.txt = miscellaneous posts the journal.txt = posts specifically about the journal & its characters other books.txt = posts about non-the journal content fan art.txt = special tag for fan-art posts only official art.txt = official art that i or my friends have created headcanons.txt = headcanons from other users or myself writing struggles.txt = complaining about having to write, shame writing help.txt = helpful tips & tricks, from others & myself progress report.txt = updates on how the books are coming along collabs.txt = promotion of stories i worked on alongside others memes.txt = inbox memes for my characters; they never expire!*
*note: yes im serious even if i reblogged a meme like 4 years ago i will still answer it if you send it in (assuming i can find the link lol)
