  • Characters

    So i like characters. I hate writing creatively because im not good at it, but i love making characters. Lots and lots of characters. I also like making settings. And ideas for stories. But i actualy dont like writing them.

    But back to characters. I think the reason i like making them so much is…well i actually have no idea. But i’m gonna do some now. Cuz im bored. And on caffeine. And bored.

    Mostly bored.

    I feel like doing steampunky things so im oging to make an airship crew.

    Captain- The captain on this airship is a mysterious man behind a locked door. Only the quartermaster has ever seen seen him, and he wont make any comment as to what he’s like. The general consensus among the crew is…well there isn’t one. He’s so mysterious, to even guess as to what he is like is hard.

    Quartermaster-An bald old man with a waist length beard the color of starlight. His wrinkled and heavily tanned face has an uncountable amount of laugh lines criss-crossing from here to there. He has lived long enough to become the ultimate cynic and find absolutely everything funny. His laugh runs the range from happy, encouraging, and infectious to maniacal, disturbing, or downright terrifying. Even though he is perpetually laughing, he still has a no nonsense attitude, and new recruits learn this quickly. They also learn how terrifying he is. Nothing is more disturbing than an old man laughing maniacally while forcing you to clean the bottom of the ship…mid-flight…with no safety gear.

    Arms Master- The arms master used to be a normal kind man with a loving wife. The key phrase in the previous sentence is “used to be.” He was happily living with his wife, until a band of escaped mental hospital patients tortured his wife to death in front of his eyes. Strangely enough, they decided killing him wouldn’t be as fun, so they left him a pistol with a single shot to kill himself with. Sadly, this life experience left his mind…twisted. He decided to name the pistol they left him after his wife, and proceeded to hunt down each of the individuals that had a hand in her death. Before killing each, he would question them, with the final question being “What’s your name?” From each he killed he would take their weapon and claim it as his own. In his collection, he has approximately 20 named weapons, each with their own disposition that changes how he acts when he wields them. Aside from his obvious insanity, he is generally quite easy to get along with…as long as he is carrying “Victoria”, the pistol named after his wife, otherwise he’s a bit more…wild.

    There are more, but I’ll write them later. =D
