#Actually i got quite sick this week but i am as stronk as ever

[batteryrose]

Based on this post, but i dont want to bother the op. Yes instead of on Violence update im doing this with Adam instead!

-

What is the character’s go-to drink order? (this one gets into how do they like to be publicly perceived, because there is always some level of theatricality to ordering drinks at a bar/restaurant)

-Adam wish he could just order tea--an entire big jug of tea, not those fancy little cups of tea--without it being a conversation starter every damn time.

-For religious reasons he's not actually supposed to drink any alcoholic drink However, if someones buying for him, that's just a whole other story.

What is their grooming routine? (how do they treat themselves in private)

- He's used to waking up during dawn, washing his face and arms and feet (typical wudhu routine), and then shower if he must. With cold water. (not sane)

- shaves because this guy cannot grow any decent hair

- likes smelling awesome

- most hygienic man in a medieval european setting

-

What was their most expensive purchase/where does their disposable income go? (Gets you thinking about socio-economic class, values, and how they spend their leisure time)

- He's generally more privileged where he came from. His most expensive (personal) purchases is always of clothes

-

Do they have any scars or tattoos? (good way to get into literal backstory)

- The scars on his back is mostly from one incident where the (Obsidian) military made an example of him. That's his entire driving force baybeeeee

- not gonna get into it too much because I think it's rather tasteless without proper context

-

When was the last time they cried, and under what circumstances? (Good way to get some *emotional* backstory in.)

- this guy only cries during sex!!!!

- not negatively though it's just the one time he lets all guards down

-

Are they an oldest, middle, youngest or only child? (This one might be a me thing, because I LOVE writing/reading about family dynamics, but knowing what kinds of things were ‘normal’ for them growing up is important.)

- He's a middle child, with quite some gap between him and his older sisters (two).

- causes a lot of envy because his dad favours him the most despite him being pretty unremarkable as a kid

- everyone also smells the queer in him

- closest to his younger sister who he takes care off since she's a baby

- also his youngest brother, but the kid is in that phase™ where he pretends to not like anyone

- quite abrasive relationship with his one-year-younger brother and respectful but distant one with his elder sisters

-

Describe the shoes they’re wearing. (This is a big catch all, gets into money, taste, practicality, level of wear, level of repair, literally what kind of shoes they require to live their life.)

For indoors and official wear it has to be these

For riding and on the fields he wears some tailor made boots. No more traumatically uncomfortable standard military boots!

-

Describe the place where they sleep. (ie what does their safe space look like. How much (or how little) care / decoration / personal touch goes into it.)

- Back home he gets a small homey building of his own, made of wood, handmade ornate carpet and fabric art hanging on the walls. But he spends time here less often. His hiding place is his friend's small cottage in the middle of nowhere.

- just a bed and noncohesive decor everywhere because this is where he stores all his emotionally important stuff (gifts of wood carvings and ugly fabric art from his sister).

-

What is their favorite holiday? (How do they relate to their culture/outside world. Also fun is least favorite holiday.)

- love-hate relationship with Eid (because family gathering)

- he seems to enjoy sightseeing in any Rhodolite festivals

-

What objects do they always carry around with them? (What do they need for their normal, day-to-day routine? What does ‘normal’ even look like for them.)

- a well hidden unexpected KNIFE

- box of tobacco and rolling paper plus matches

- some fragrance sometimes

-
