Brief Background: doctor reed richards is one of, if not the smartest man in the world. he knows it, and so does everyone else unfortunate enough to be around him for an extended amount of time. devoted and loving to his fantastic four family, reed rarely shows this kindness when strangers are around. after the cosmic explosion accident that changed his, sue storm’s, johnny storm’s, and ben grimm’s lives - reed and the other three have grouped together to become the superhero team known as the fantastic four. reed, with the new moniker of ‘mister fantastic’ (though he wishes people would say doctor instead of mister) has developed the ability to elasticize his skin.

QUESTIONNAIRE.

How is your character taking the unilateral decision to leave earth? as he does with everything, reed has calculated the advantages and disadvantages for the journey. he’s been to space many times, so this isn’t anything new to him; and truthfully, he’s excited for a new opportunity to discover and research an entire planet.

Is your character dealing well with the prospect of life on a new planet? Are they scared? Concerned? Excited? he’s dealing as well as he always does to change; by being inwardly annoyed by everyone and everything and pushing his focus onto certain aspects. like his wife, his children, and the safety of those in his immediate care. that said, reed is excited for what is to come.

Is your character cooperating with the other groups, or fighting against these tentative new alliances? he’s in the middle. mostly because he doesn’t usually play well with others - but he understands that in order for all of this to work, for all of them to survive; he has to cooperate. plus, his children are a part of this - and he does want what’s best for them.

For those who are unaware of PROJECT NEW HOME; Does your character realize they’re stuck on Orbulite? Are they making plans on trying to leave? reed is not unaware of project new home and he understands and accepts the risks.

For those who are part of PROJECT NEW HOME; Is your character optimistic that their relocation will work out as intended? he’s optimistic in the fact that those that do try will absolutely be fine. those that do not, they have a higher chance of perishing. but that’s how evolution works, does it not? survival of the fittest? 

If your character volunteered to be part of the first two groups to Orbulite, or the rescue group sent after them, why? because, to reed, like all scientific experiments - when something goes wrong, you must observe, calculate, transcribe, and then seek a new solution to ensure the best possible outcome. in this case, finding those that have been lost.
