What is your characters name? Does the character have a nickname? Nirvana. Nirv OOCly but I don't think she has any IC nicknames. She likes to be called Empress Nirvana lol
What is your characters hair color? Eye color? Black hair, purple eyes
What kind of distinguishing facial features does your character have? Her eyes are very piercing, but there is kind of a resting bitch face thing going on also
Does your character have a birthmark? Where is it? What about scars? How did she/he get them? She doesn't have any scars that are really pronounced, but she has been in a good deal of fights, so she has some here and there
Who are your characters friends and family? Who does she surround herself/himself with? Who are the people your character is closest to? Who does she/he wish she/he were closest to? Nirv's family is all kind of gone, and she has had friends over the years but she is horrible at paying them a lot of attention. She was probably closest to Alexei, maybe Witchcrypt, maybe Ranjit at one point. She was close with her son Styx too but their relationship became more strained as he got older. Nirv is most close with her animal companion Atticus. She doesn't really desire closeness with others as much as she desires their unwavering allegiance to her rulership... lol...
Where was your character born? Where has she/he lived since then? Where does she/he call home? She was born in an unnamed land far away, or at least I don't think I ever named it. She lived in RLTW Lands/Eleutheria for most of her life but has traveled briefly to a few other places. If you asked her what Home was, she would probably call Obascus her home, though at this point she has left it behind.
Where does your character go when she's angry? I could see her going to hide in some kind of a cave or a thick forest to process her anger. She would prefer to be alone to contemplate and potentially plan out her revenge. She might be okay with one trusted friend there to rant to.
What is her/his biggest fear? Who has she/he told this to? Who would she/he never tell this to? Why? I think she is afraid of dying, and afraid of dying without having made her legacy known. She has a secret fear of succumbing to someone else's authority. She does not like taking orders from anyone she does not have the utmost respect for. She doesn't discuss her fears but she might be tempted to if someone gained her trust to a high degree.
Does she/he have a secret? Nothing to speak of really.
What makes your character laugh out loud? Alexei being Alexei lol
When has your character been in love? Had a broken heart? I think she has been in love a few times. Styx's father, The Reckoning, and I think she briefly had feelings for Ranjit. She mostly just wanted children, but the feelings were there at least for the beginning. I think she also had some weird crush on another character but I cannot remember his name.
What is one strong memory that has stuck with your character from childhood? Why is it so powerful and lasting? She had a period of her life where she was abused, and though she has blocked a lot of this out, she does remember her brother (who she was plotting to have assassinated so she could take the throne in her birth herd) came to rescue her from her abuser. One of the only times she has felt such profound guilt in her life for what she was planning to do. She also vividly remembers crossing paths with her father, Admonition, just before she left her birth lands for the last time, and was given Atticus to protect her.

What one act in your past are you most ashamed of? What one act in your past are you most proud of? Nirvana is probably most ashamed of her last interaction with her firstborn son, in which she kind of flipped out at him and told him he was forbidden to take the throne even though she had raised him to do just that. She is probably most proud of battling for the throne... though for some reason I cannot remember who it was against lol...
Have you ever been in an argument before? Over what, with who, and who won? Nirvana doesn't necessarily get into a lot of arguments. She tends to just tell someone off and walk away. She is most likely convinced that she won every argument even if she didn't just to keep her pride intact LOL
Have you ever been in a physical fight before? Over what, with who, and who won? Nirvana has been in several fights and has won, I believe, all of them.
What do you feel most strongly about? Nirvana feels the most strongly about whatever goal of conquest she might have in mind at any given moment. These goals give her life meaning and momentum.
What do you pretend to feel strongly about, just to impress people? Nirvana is not in the business of impressing anyone, but if she respected someone more powerful than her enough, she could be tempted to pretend to care about a cause in order to manipulate them into helping her.
What trait do you find most admirable, and how often do you find it? Nirvana admires a ruthless leader who rules with dignity and grace. She values strong female leaders, and I think she envies them as much as she sees them as role models. She finds it often, there are a lot of good female leaders out there.
Do you have any feelings in general that you are disturbed by? What are they? Why do they disturb you? Nirvana sometimes gets flashbacks of her most brutal kill, which involved extracting the heart from one of her victims, as per the request of a female leader she respected to the highest degree. Never in her life had she seen such gore, and it haunts her to this day.
What is your religious view of things? What religion, if any, do you call your own? Nirvana doesn't seem to have many spiritual thoughts and is mostly focused on the physical aspects of reality. She mostly disbelieves anyone who claims there is anything more than the physical, but her mind could be changed if she had some level of spiritual experience.
Do you think the future is hopeful? Why? Nirvana is struggling right now with feeling that her future is anything but more struggle. She feels kind of lost and unsure since she does not have a set goal to achieve right now.
Is an ounce of prevention really worth a pound of cure? Which is more valuable? Why do you feel this way? She doesn't have a hard and fast rule with this sort of thing, it all depends on the means to the end that is required.
What's the worst thing that can be done to another person? Why? Nirvana would say betrayal probably. She really hates when she finally trusts someone and then they do something untrustworthy.
What's the worst thing you could actually do to someone you hated? Nirvana is not really that vindictive, she tends to just deliver punishment swiftly then walk away, but if she really and truly hated someone, she would want to take everything away from them that they cared about to make them really suffer.
Are you a better leader or follower? Why do you think that? LOL...
What is your responsibility to the world, if any? Why do you think that? Nirvana is mostly concerned with her own interests and power... but she does care about those who are labeled as "outcasts" and believes she can do some good in the world by providing those who have been shunned by all other factions a place to go and be weird.
Do you think redemption is possible? If so, can anyone be redeemed, or are there only certain circumstances that can be? If not, why do you think nothing can redeem itself? I think she is open to redemption, to a certain extent. She is actually pretty forgiving, but that forgiveness is absolutely earned.
Is it okay for you to cry? When was the last time you cried? Bad bitches don't cry they only scream
What do you think is wrong with MOST people, overall? They are too soft and weak

What does your character need most? To be left alone with a game of Risk
What is your character’s goal in life? To rule over all the weirdos and be seen as the best Queen of All Time

Where did your character come from? Some unnamed birth land
When did your character grow up? Mostly also in some unnamed birth land

What are your character’s means? I don't know what this question means

What are some of your character's unexpected quirks? She gets annoyed REALLY easily and can fly off the handle or mouth off to someone without even thinking about it. Idk if that's a quirk but oh well lol
How does your character want to die? She doesn't LMAO maybe she would be okay with dying in battle against someone really awesome but even then I think she'd be like nah I'm good on that whole death thing sounds lame
