It Isn't Midnight Yet!

Last minute post is last minute! Also, this is the very end of this very long character development questionnaire. This also happens to be my favorite part, though. Well, the last few questions at least. Hope you enjoy!

Daily Life

1. What is the character's financial situation? Is he rich, poor, comfortable, in debt? 
Wealthy. He will inherit all of the de Arques money and property. It helps that he’ll be king.

2. What is his social status? Has this changed over time, and if so, how has the change affected him? 
Royalty.

3. Where does he live? House, apartment, trailer? Is his home his castle or just a place to crash? What condition is it in? Does he share it with others?
He resides in the main castle in the kingdom’s largest metropolis. It is where all governing takes place and it huge. However, it is also walled off and next to impossible to get into or out of. He knows nothing other than his home. He shares it with his family, an uncountable amount of servants and workers as well as a few noble families that live on smaller residences on the property.

4. Besides the basic necessities, what does he spend his money on? 
He doesn’t. Things are just handed to him.

5. What does he do for a living? Is he good at it? Does he enjoy it, or would he rather be doing something else? 
Currently nothing. He’s just the prince, but that royal life will end soon. He doesn’t really like it, but he can manage and he plays his part just as he should. His responsibility to his family and the quest is something he will do, but he’d rather do something else.

6. What are his interests or hobbies? How does he spend his free time? 
Archery, rifles, hunting, horseback riding, pranking… all the things a good 19-year-old boy should do. He spends his free time with Galen doing all of those things.

7. What are his eating habits? Does he skip meals, eat out, drink alcohol, avoid certain foods? 
He eats every meal and some. He will have quite the shock to the system when all that changes after he leaves the castle.

Associations

Which of the following do you associate with the character, or which is his favorite:
1. Color?  Blue 

2. Smell?  Leather 
3. Time of day?  Midday 
4. Season?  Autumn 
5. Book?  The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. 
6. Music?  Jazz (like Sinatra) 
7. Place?  A grass plain at the edge of a forest 
8. Substance?  Some kind of metal 
9. Plant?  Sequoia 
10. Animal? Golden eagle


Yay! I'm considering doing this for a few other characters, but I'm not sure I'll post them. Tell me if its been interesting at all. If so, then maybe I will. Or, you could tell me what character you'd like me to fill this out for.

  1. I always like profile stuff. It's just hard to comment on because, well... it's so straight forward, ya know?

    When you're finished Julian's, I wouldn't mind reading profile stuff for Benny the Hunter or Milo. :)

  2. I'll go with Milo, since Benny is more legend than solid information. They are also crucial to plot and if I give too much away it will ruin it. XD
