Q1. Does your character hold a piece of jewelry in high regard because a special someone gave it to them? If so, what is that piece of jewelry?
A1. No, this one isn’t applicable to my character, at least not yet.
Q2. What can make your character cry out of frustration, happiness, or even sadness?
A2. Errol has a difficult time making emotional connections, so, if he finally has a close connection with someone and they betray him, that can make him cry out of both frustration and sadness.
Q3. Has there ever been a time when your character felt like giving up and they were very close to doing so? What changed their mind?
A3. Not yet, but I would love to include a plot line where this happens in his story.
Q4. Do your character fears something that the other characters find unusual or plain silly?
A4. Errol fears someone finding out his real name. He uses a fake name because he’s a faerie, and (at least in the lore of my book) if someone uses his real name they can control him because he has do do whatever they say.
Q5. Has your character ever done the wrong thing in order to successfully complete the right thing?
A5. Errol doesn’t discriminate between right and wrong and does whatever he has to do to achieve his goals. So, yes, he’s both done the wrong thing for a good result and the right thing for a bad result.
Q6. Has your character ever made a reckless choice that could have ended their life, but it was for the greater good…or evil?
A6. Yes, Errol has done this a few times. For instance, he got stabbed by his sister trying to protect the friends he’s made.
Q7. What has your character sacrifice in order to get where they are currently?
A7. Errol sacrificed a stable lifestyle, his family, and his own morality.
Q8. Does your character have a nasty personality trait that you as an author/writer dislike in real life.
A8. Errol is very passive aggressive, is a compulsive liar, is manipulative, and likes to touch people without asking. All things I can’t stand in real people.
Q9. Does your character have magical powers or superpowers that make them stand out from people similar to them?
A9. Errol is a Faerie but his particular magic specialty lies in shapeshifting. He can do many other things but that’s what he’s best at and he can take on any form of his choosing, not just one or two specific forms like other fae.
Q10. What is your character’s mental age and physical age?
A10. Mentally and appearance wise he’s in his mid twenties to early thirties. In actuality he’s been alive since the dark ages.
