Sorry about the late update!
I found this in someone's journal and I thought it would be fun to do it, since I'm too lazy to go into details about my own character anyway. So here:
~#~
1)What's your character's name?
Kinomoto Saori.
2) How old is he/she?
Seventeen, born on September 10th.
3) Is your OC a boy or girl?
Girl.
4) What's his/her race?
Human, but she possesses special powers as she is descended from a line of Keepers, people who protect two special pendants known as the Taiyotsuki and Chikyusora.
Appearance:
1) If this character were to suddenly become part of the real world, and ended up in a heavily-populated area, how many stares would he/she get?
Average, I suppose. Let’s just say she’s typically Asian, black hair, black eyes and fairly tanned skin. Not an absolute beauty, but she has a sort of aura that mostly attracts attention- an aura of strength, yet subtlety.
2) Is your character considered normal in his/her own world?
Yes, appearance-wise. She’s not considered ‘normal’ in the sense that she is the only remaining female member of the Kinomoto clan after the whole clan was assassinated by their rivaling Azuma clan, and since the Azuma does not know that she and her brother, Daisuke, are still alive, they live in seclusion – imagine that, after all their riches and comfort, living in a small house right in the middle of the woods.
3) What would be his/her most recognizable feature(s)?
Her eyes. They’re black, but I call them onyx – her eyes can draw you in deeply, almost mesmerizing you. Then there’s her killer glare, which makes a person feel like they’ve just been reduced to dust. (Kazuki often suffers this ^^)
4) Would you consider your OC as attractive?
Yes, definitely. At least, she’s everything I’m not in looks
Personality:
1)Temper:
Depends, really. She hates unfairness and she can’t stand seeing people being bullied or pushed around, that’s when she really explodes. Oh, and if anyone dares to hurt her friends or her loved ones in any way, they’re in for hell.
2) Does your character ever get depressed?:
Saori gets stressed, not depressed. She hates moping, but she shows her real emotions once in awhile, if the situation really presses her.
3) Leader or Follower?
Both. She can command, and sometimes she gets overly bossy, but she can also take orders if the person giving them is someone she respects.
4)What is the main aspect of his/her personality?
Saori is fiercely loyal to those she considers friends and family and she will do anything it takes to protect them. She harbours regret at not being able to stop her clan’s murderers, so she keeps trying to make up for it. She also killed a few of the assassins on that fateful night, and unbeknownst to her older brother Daisuke, she spent a long time crying and trying to scrub off the invisible ‘blood’ on her hands because she didn’t like killing.
History:
1) Does your OC have a family of any sort? If so, are they still alive?
Yes, she did have a family, once. Her clan, one of the largest in the coastal town of Naruto (NOT the ‘Naruto’ manga – this is an actual place in Japan) had a long standing feud with the Azuma clan, and one night, the Azuma sent assassins to kill them off. Saori’s parents, the clan leader and his wife, were killed that night after urging Saori to escape, and her brother, Daisuke, managed to rescue her. So the Azuma thought that every Kinomoto was dead, while Daisuke and Saori hid, living in the woods for ten years.
2) Is your character out on his/her own? If so, why?
Yes, pretty much. She doesn’t know that her brother, Daisuke, works as an assassin under the threat of blackmail, and as she hates killing, Daisuke doesn’t dare to tell her. She assumes that he’s out on simple traveling for business purposes even though she’s suspicious. (Daisuke is darn lucky that his sister isn’t the nosey type) So she has to manage herself, food, life, etc. She can even go down to the village because no one can recognize her, but she usually wears a hood anyway.
3) Has he/she encountered any traumatizing events?
already mentioned that about three times already… well… her clan got killed off by their rivals when she was seven, she watched her parents die that night, and she and her brother lived alone after that.
4) What was probably the best time in his/her life so far?
When she realized that Azuma Ryuuko was trying to help her to escape from the captivity of his own clan.
Romance:
1) Single?
Yes.
2) Has your OC developed any romantic relationships?
She likes Ryuuko, even if she doesn’t show it.
You can see a picture of them here, I posted it in my original account.:

3) Virgin?
Definitely. She has the traditional way of thinking.
4) Does your character like flirting?
No, she teases guys but she doesn’t really flirt. Saori’s more of the sarcastic type.
Symbolism:
1) What animal would you associate your OC with?
Do mystical animals count??? I’ve always associated her to a unicorn, graceful, yet strong and reliable.
2) Musical Instrument?
Hm… I like to think of her playing the piano, or even the flute, but since those things don’t exactly exist in her world…
3) Element?
Funny this question should be asked, because my whole story was based on elements, in the first place. Well, I’d say she’s a bit of everything. Earth, because she always stands firm, she’s pretty wise and mature in many ways because she had to ‘grow up’ early. Water, because she’s usually calm and composed. Wind, simply because she loves that element and she has this aspiration, deep inside her, to soar beyond her capabilities. Lastly, fire, because when she’s angry… let’s just say it isn’t a pretty sight.
4) Planet?
I have utterly no idea. Maybe I’ll choose Earth?!
Showing the Love:
1) Do you draw your character?
Yup, always. I can’t count the amount of times I’ve changed her appearance since I started, but her features are pretty fixed now. One of my friends started naming all the drafts I came up with, ‘Saori Version # 1’ , ‘Saori Version # 2’ and so on… I laughed myself silly then.
2) Do you write about him/her?
YES!!!! I love writing! It was how the idea for her and my story started in the first place.
3) Do you use him/her in any RPGs?
No, because I don’t play any games.
4) What other ways have you appreciated your OC?
I scribble about her, on any piece of paper I find, especially if I’ve had an idea at the moment.
RANDOMIZE!
1) Is your character wanted for anything?
Not really, unless you count being wanted by the Azuma clan because they’re terrified that Saori and Daisuke will poke a hole right through their story about their victorious defeat of the Kinomoto clan in battle when they actually assassinated their rivals like cowards – in the middle of the night.
2) What are three weaknesses in him/her?
Hm…. My friends often said that my OCs are always too perfect, but trust me, Saori has her flaws. First, she’s sometimes overconfident of her abilities, which results in her friends getting pissed and worried because she lands in some kind of trouble. Second, she can be pretty bossy, and she likes having things her own way, but if the opposing idea can be accepted, she will accept it with a compromise. Third… hm… she may be calm, but she’s not very patient.
3) Strengths?
As I said before, Saori is extremely loyal, she trusts her own abilities and she can always hold her own in a fight. She dislikes killing, and she only kills when it is absolutely necessary. Also, she’s a good archer, and she is never boastful even if she is confident.
4) Does your OC drink or smoke (etc.)?
No.
5) What's one quirk about him/her?
She goes into another room to get something she has forgotten, but when she gets there, she usually forgets what she wanted to get. She DOES NOT have short term memory loss, it just takes a few moments for her to remember the item.
6) Does your character have any phobias?
Not exactly, but she dislikes dark, open spaces. It’s not so bad if it’s just a room, but if everything around her is pitch black, she feels out of control.
7) What could you do to get him/her into a blind rage?
If you hurt her friends in any way, like I said, you’ll have hell to deal with. Other than that, Saori can fly into tempers, but those are short-lived and actually, more comical than frightening to those watching. Not funny to the victim.
8) Does your OC like chickens?
Yes. She likes eating them. Oh, and she likes the fluffy yellow chicks, she thinks they’re cute. (so do I! ^^)
The Final Question:
What would you consider your relationship with your character to be like?
Best friends. Seriously. Because she is MINE and entirely MINE, we’re sort of connected, if you have your own OC, you’ll understand what I’m saying.
