He's getting closer!

There he is!

He wants to show you something....

Opening...

These are more focused on the background stuff rather than the usual "what would the character do in XY situation" kinds of asks. I've been looking for something like this for quite a while and in the end decided to make my own. Feel free to use, go wild, enjoy

What was the original thought that led to the creation of this character?

How long was the process before the character reached its final version? (or a version that would be clearly recognizable as the character?)

What was the first thing you decided on, the character's name, appearance, personality or their role in the story?

And reverse, which one of the four things did you struggle with the most?

How did you choose their name and why? Was it simply based on vibes or is there any specific meaning behind the name? Are the reasons behind their name different in- and out of universe?

What was the thought process behind their appearance? Did you go mostly for the aesthetic or are there other reasons they look the way they do?

What is an aspect of their appearance that you like the most?

What is the origin of their personality? And let's be honest - how much of it is projecting?

How big is their role in the story? Do they make a frequent appearance or are they a character with little "screentime" but big influence? Or are they just a favourite background guy?

What is their main character arc in the story? Where do they start and how do they develop? Do they get a happy ending or is their story a tragic one?

Is there any existing character from other media that your character resembles? Was the resemblance intentional or was it a coincidence?

Do you have a playlist for the character? What songs do you associate with them and why?

Do you have a voice claim for the character? What do you imagine the character sounds like?

Do you have any quotes tied to the character, either from the story itself or from another source that fit them?

Have you ever made a moodboard for them?

Is there any memes or running jokes associated with the character, both in- and out of universe?

Are there any motifs or symbols associated with the character? How are they represented, in their design, personality or in some other way?

Does the character have other characters connected to them? Do you have a family tree and "offscreen" connections made up for them or do they exist in a vacuum purely for the purpose of the story?

What is your general favourite thing about the character? What is your least favourite?

1. Do they sleep with a stuffed animal? If they have multiple, who’s the favorite?

No. He's not fun. He lacks whimsy

Mike has several stuffed animals once upon a time. Though moment Mike finds out about Felix is Foxy and finds his Foxy plush, he locks in on that thing. It makes him feel safe

2. Can they take care of a plant? What about a pet? What about a child?

The general answer is yes, yes and yes with Felix being far more qualified in 3rd. Would they take care their own? Yes, yes and no/yes. Felix doesn't want a kid of his own.

Mike has taken care of a plant before, though it didn't end well during Felix's disappearance.

9. Do they empathize with non-sentient things (dolls, plants, books…)?

Felix does a little. He would do a small frown when an arcade machine broke and pat the machine to "comfort" it but beyond that, he couldn't care less and doesn't see the point of empathizing with things that is long broken.

If Mike is attached to said thing, yeah. And he gets attached to a lot of things, though he tries not to show it as much.

29. What recurring dreams do they have?

Felix: Oh ya know, sharp teeth, blood everywhere, his own teeth falling out sometimes. He always felt like he couldn't move no matter how he tries in those types of dreams. Could only cough out blood.

Mike always felt detached from the recurring dreams he has. Like he is a third party looking in. There's several instances of him dreaming his own sleeping body, that he'd remember a lot of things he can't remember in the waking world. He would never go out of his general area, and if he does, he would hover over Felix.

30. What would they do if they knew it would be forgiven?

I can't figure it out for Felix since he'd accept any consequences of his actions. For example, he'd lie to Mike, would absolutely expecting not to be forgiven if Mike finds out, even if Mike always and mostly will forgive him.

I suppose everything he does. Like he wouldn't deliberately do the thing, only if his hand is forced and that he hopes he will be forgiven. Like he hopes that his parents would forgive him for breaking their hearts and their rule. Also murder. And maybe possessing someone.
