I was gonna skip this meme, then
Roareyraccoon did it, and I thought what the hell.
Q: What made you choose the species of your main character?
A: It chose me. He is such an important part of my life, that I was significantly moved by the lion king, in a way no other film or story ever has moved me. I didn't understand it at the time, but I knew it was important. Pro-found. I understand now, something in my subconscious was saying "This."
Q: Is your character just like you, or how you want to be?
A: Both, he's an idealized version of me.
Q: Does your character have the same personality you have?
A: His personality is mine. What you see in "real life" is the personality I was prescribed by those who would punish me for not performing properly.
Q: Does your character have the same dislikes and likes as you do?
A: Yeah
Q: Does your character look like you at all?
A: If I had any say in my physical appearance, then I'd look like him.
Q: Is your character the same gender as you, if not why?
A: Yes
Q: Do you have more than one main character?
A: No, altho I have created many characters, some more personal than others.
Q: Do you have a back story for your character, if so does it have anything to do with your own history?
A: Yes, but it's not especially important to me. He's existed for 18 years now (not his actual age) and there's been lots of development in that time. He grew with me.
Q: Is your character mated, if so is it to your real life significant other?
A: He would like to be, and is as lonely as I am.
Q: If not are they looking for a mate, or are they a swinger so to speak?
A: No. Used to be.
Q: Is there something special about your character that you think sets them apart from others?
A: Many things. Most importantly his peace of mind and capacity for compassion and forgiveness.
Q: Do you have much art of your main character?
A: I'd like more. If I could, I'd get a picture of my character every day. But I'm not unhappy with what I have.
Q: Would you ever consider parting with your main character, if so why?
A: Never. I'd part with my human self first.
Q: If you suit, do you have a suit of your main character?
A: The reason I don't have a suit is because I'd want one of me, and it would be too costly to do what I want.
Q: Have you ever roleplayed with your main character, or do you prefer not to?
A: Lots, but not as much anymore. There's always an ongoing roleplay in my mind however. To me he is alive.
Q: Do you consider your main character to be a part of you in any way?
A: He is me. The rest of this life is a sham.
