✗ Why does your protagonist view the antagonist as their antagonist? (@Diamond)

Snow: Personal relationship, obstacle to getting home, threat to everything she holds dear

Vash: In the way of achieving his happiness/a fulfilling life

Daehan: Corruption 

✗ What thing could you yell in a crowd to find your lost OC?

Snow: Her name, duh.

Vash: Free cigarettes!!

Daehan: Anything about Vash because at this point the man's obsessed.

✗ Name 3 insecurities your OC has. (@Diamond)

Snow: (1) Her personality will chase people away; (2) Cooking skills are basic at best; (3) Eye color because it's always been a reminder of her not belonging anywhere and left her questioning her identity; (4) That she's not particularly good at anything and was not gifted with any talent

Vash: (1) Feeling that he will always be second place in people's lives; (2) Speaking his native tongue because he doesn't use it as often as he did in the past; (3) That no one really wants him around and he's just a waste of space

Daehan: (1) At times his antlers because they occasionally put him in awkward situations; (2) Never being able to truly fit in anywhere; (3) Ending up alone   

✗ Who has the potential to hurt your OC the most? (@Diamond)

Snow: Her parents

Vash: His friends

Daehan: Probably anybody willing to spill that truth tea on him 

✗ The summer event is here! Describe what your OC would be like if they were a pirate?

Snow: Probably the first mate/quartermaster who would pick up all the crap that the captain is too lazy to do, essentially captain in all but name. Would run a tight ship, quick to put down fights, equally punish everybody who disobeys. Disliked by many for her strict ways despite only being second-in-command but also respected by many for her efficiency and penchant for getting shit done.

Vash: A rum-drinking, tobacco-smoking, shit-stirring pirate who would likely lead a mutineer, quickly find out he hates the responsibility of being leader, and then jump ship to go off looking for treasure himself.

Daehan: A humble crew mate who picks up everybody's slack. No one knows why he still chooses to remain on board when he's always admonishing the crew's penchant for violence and treasure-plundering attitudes. He's honestly only there for the adventure and to get away from the shit back home; all of that doesn't matter though because no one really listens to him anyway.

✗ What is your OC's full name? Is there a story behind it? (@Diamond)

Snow: Her parents wanted to give her a special snowflake name so they thought that Snowvella would be cute when really it just sounds weird. Her full name is important to her though so Snow never had it legally changed. In reality I never planned to make a guardian OC until after I chose my username and I compromised lol. Chinese name: Huang Xueying (literally 黄雪英 snow flower)
Vash: Name he goes by is Vash Asoraka. It's really just a mishmash of words and has no significant meaning; he just wanted to change his name after his mom's death. His birth name is Asakusa Kiyomasu (浅草清倍), Asakusa being his family/clan name and Kiyomasu being his uncle's name.
Daehan: No actual last name but his full name is technically Daehan of Baengnokdam. No meaning behind his first name but Baengnokdam (백녹담, literally 'white deer lake') is the name of the crater lake his tribe comes from. 

✗ Would your OC survive on a deserted island? 

Snow: For a little while she would do fine, but I don't think she'd do well in the long run. She doesn't have the necessary survival skills to live off the wilderness for a prolonged period of time.
Vash: Could probably last for awhile; he has decent survival skills but mentally speaking, he might not be able to stand it for long.
Daehan: Of my three OCs, he has the best survival skills because his people live off the land so he'd probably survive the longest.    

✗ What's one thing that other characters wish they could change about your character's personality?

Snow: Being standoffish
Vash: His need to be an ass to everybody for no reason
Daehan: His inability to sincerely open up and speak the truth

✗ Does your OC have any personal enemies? (@Diamond)

Snow: Her ex-fiancè Colin is at the top of her list for cheating on her. On a lesser scale, there's Miiko for being a horrible person, a horrible leader, and simply because she stands as the figurehead for Snow not being able to get back home.
Vash: No not really, but Daehan is slowly making his way up there.
Daehan: Vash, if that wasn't obvious yet.

✗ Throwback! Find an animated character (video game/movie/cartoon) that looks the closest to your Guardian. (Suggested by @Scyanatha)
Snow: I chose Hanabi (Naruto) last time but maybe female Kinesis from Maplestory could work too (at least for a chibi version!)

or Boa Hancock from One Piece (but not as well-endowed of course :P)

Vash: Shinya Kogami from Psycho-Pass

Daehan: Liu Kang because that's who I took inspiration from when I was creating him

✗ Throwback!If you had to pick an actress to play your Guardian in a movie, who would suit them best?
All my FCs for my OCs have experience acting soooo...
Snow: Ni Ni
Vash: Kato Kazuki
Daehan: Ok Taecyeon

06/30/2017 Obisidian Weekly Questions

✗ What is something your Guardian couldn't stand to lose?Snow: Anything that she wholeheartedly dedicates herself to. It would be such a huge waste of time and energy that she would never be able to fully comprehend why she got into it in the first place and be silently angry at herself over it.Vash: The people he's learned to trust/will learn to trust. He already has issues with this and it would be such a huge blow for him if he opened himself up to people only to lose them. He'd probably completely withdraw from human (in this case fae/faelian) contact if something like that were to happen.Daehan: His community/a place where he belongs. For most of his life, he's always had his community to support him and turn to and having that taken away from him was terrifyingly lonely. Now that he has an opportunity to return to that, he's determined not to lose it again. 
✗ How honest is your Guardian about their feelings? Do they share their emotions with others? (@Diamond)Snow: For the most part, she is pretty up front about her feelings. She hardly takes the effort to hide them as well, in part because she sucks at it. Sharing emotions, however, is a completely different story. Though you'll very clearly be able to see how she's feeling, she'd insist on being left alone to sort herself out.Vash: Denier all the way. Beyond anger, it's rare to see his more vulnerable side.Daehan: He's like Vash, but maybe even a bit worse. He's not here for feelings and he's going to push any emotions that may arise in his time on Eldarya far far away.
✗ (THROWBACK) What was your Guardian's favorite snack on their home planet? What's their favorite snack on Eldarya?Snow: Nuts, especially boiled peanuts, and jerky on Earth. I'm sure Eldarya has something similar as well. Vash: Generally anything sweet is fine. If not that, he has a thing for jerky as well.Daehan: Any kind of dried fruit or vegetable on both Earth and Eldarya.
✗ (THROWBACK) If your Guardian was a flavor of ice cream, what flavor would they be and why?(@Diamond)Snow: Mint chocolate chip. She can be very calm and cool like mint, but get to know her good enough and she can be as sweet as chocolate.Vash: Ginger. There's a bit of a spice to it that some people can never get used to, blended with a creamy, delicateness that will surprise you after the initial taste.Daehan: Red bean. Sweet, but not sickeningly so, just enough to leave behind a distinct taste in your mouth even after you've finished. Like the presence of the beans, there's something about him that's a bit distracting and not what you assumed but it's not entirely noticeable until you become more familiar with him. ✗ Your Guardian must chose between being able to hear what everyone around them is thinking at all times, or having everyone else hear what they are thinking at all times. Which do they pick and why? Snow: She'd easily pick having everyone hear what she's thinking. She's honest enough in her day to day life, plus she'd rather not have to deal with having to hear everyone's thoughts all the time.Vash: A tough choice, but he would ultimately go with allowing everybody to hear his own thoughts. Much like Snow, he speaks his mind enough for him to deal with the second choice. Moreover, he can't imagine he'd get much solitude and peace of mind from the first choice.Daehan: He would go with being able to hear everyone's thoughts. Annoying and probably disturbing as it may be, it gives him the opportunity to root out the bad eggs before they do something heinous. He also has a habit of hiding his feelings so having it exposed for all to hear is a bit unnerving.  ✗ The canon guard uniforms are a mess, create what you think your guard uniform should look like!
