@valtmy

some of those names are incredibly cruel. Especially the ones meant to mark out illegitimate children. It’s most definitely a good thing that only the good ones (Joy, Faith, Grace) remain with us now 😛

@valtmy

I thought it was your turn. Granted, I am slightly confused today, as has been established already.

Based on the scene I just wrote, here’s a question. If you’re character was to be given a “Puritan” name (such as Joy, Lament, Peace, Faith, etc) what would it be? would it contrast or fit their personalities?

@valtmy

Hopeful, Courageous’ sister. She’s a geek when it comes to medical things, and I can just imagine that being a solver of murder mysteries would be exactly in her line of interest.

@rochellaine

Yilla would hate it. she wouldn’t like modern culture or technology and she would be miserable. High-Praise would love it. she’d love social media and easy access to so many things that she’s never had and she’d like driving fast cars. Courageous would like it too, as @valtmy pointed out. he could have speech therapists who actually…[Read more]

@valtmy @rochellaine

Oh, my turn is it?

What’s one memory your character would forget if they could?

@valtmy

That’s a good question, I like it 😀

High-Praise is into waving her hand imperiously and fiddling with her ring. Yilla is one of those sit very still and stare people into submission types of people, but she does have a habit of resting her chin on her hands and thinking in that pose. Courageous cracks his knuckles and plays with the…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Yilla–various prosaic things about the sunrise and the state of the world around her. Courageous–“[insert various made up swear words] I have to talk to people”. High-Praise–various complaints about various things in various ways.

@rochellaine

Very good 🙂

@valtmy

I did answer it, but the forum hasn’t been working flawlessly for me, so maybe it did disappear.

The gist was that Yilla would lie to keep her family safe. Courageous would lie to protect himself. High-Praise would lie to get what she wanted.

@valtmy @Rochellaine

Ah,yes, my question:

How does your character feel about romantic relationships?

@rochellaine

Would you like to join in the Crazy Character Game?

@valtmy

Her culture is loosely based on general Australian Aboriginal culture. Horses are a very recent addition to real world Australia and the real life Aborigines had little to do with them. Aborigines also, for the most part lived hunter-gatherer lifestyles and didn’t really keep animals, so I can’t really steal from real life when it comes…[Read more]

@valtmy

Yilla would say to take away someone’s freedom. Courageous would say to take their dignity. High-Praise would say would say their privilege/inheritence/dues.

Or maybe their hot chocolate, who knows?

What is the most embarrassing situation they have ever been in?

@jenwriter17

Its not even lunch time *moans*

@valtmy

Most certainly. Since Jen is gone, would you like to ask a question?

@valtmy

I thought it would be something along those lines 😛

@jenwriter17

Now I’ve moved on to completely forgetting to tag you

On another note, I just sent an email to you, or attempted to. Because I sent it to myself instead.

@valtmy

That’s true. He’d probably do that.

Okay, let me ask a question.

What would happen if two of your MCs (from different novels) swapped places?

@valtmy

I don’t know. Yilla wouldn’t want to go anywhere else, because her family is in this time and she wouldn’t be able to take care of them. Courageous wouldn’t ever be happy anywhere. High-Praise would go back to a time before people started disrespecting the monarchy.

@jenwriter17

They wouldn’t say anything–they’d just knife me on the spot.

@jenwriter17 (I’m having a bad day, you’re 27 now)

Yilla is an ISTJ, Courageous is an ISFJ and High-Praise is an ESFP I think

@valtmy

Hmm…

Yilla–earth powers. Courageous–telepathy. High-Praise–telekinesis or invisibility.

What is your character’s favourite colour and why?
