High charisma, low intelligence, low wisdom character. Only other exceptional stat is dexterity. Character is a thin male, dressed in elegant silks, and is generally considered very beautiful and takes care of their body (bathes more than most people in setting, shaves daily, moisturizes, etc.). Says they used to have a wealthy benefactor that basically paid for everything but the benefactor died recently.

I’ve noticed there aren’t a lot of questions geared towards the adult fiction crowd, so even if these can overlap for other genres and demographics I wanted to change that. 

What is his/her profession? Was that role part of your character’s goal?

What does he/she drive? Or, what means of transportation does your character utilize if cars or buses don’t exist in your setting?

Is your character’s current life anything like he/she expected it to turn out?

Which parent, guardian, family member, or mentor does your character take after most, and is that significant? How?

What from your character’s past has influenced how he or she currently interacts with the world?

What kind of childhood did your character have?

How were your character’s teenage years? Did they grow up fast or slow?

How old is your character, and can he or she pinpoint a favorite age? (For example, some people loved their college years, others love when their children are still young, etc.).

Describe past relationships your character has had, and what that character has learned from them.

What would your character look for in an ideal partner, and does that match the type of person he or she goes for in reality? Why or why not?

Describe your character’s sense of style.

What does your character’s way of speaking tell you about them? How is it received by other characters?

What’s one secret your character never wants to share (whether or not said secret does get shared)?

What types of insecurities does he or she have? Where do those stem from?

List some of your character’s strengths, and don’t be afraid to dig deep. Does your character see those as strengths, and how are they perceived by other characters?

How is your character socially? What about professionally?

Describe your character’s social circle. Is he or she comfortable branching out of that? Which parts of themselves are reflected in that circle?

What would your character enjoy despite not expecting to?

How does your character define--or even merely think of--success? Has that character achieved success, even in part?

How will your character know when he or she has made it....or will that character ever know?

What would pop into your character’s mind if he or she were to think of the word, “bliss?”

What is your character’s most shallow or superficial desire?

How does your character handle rejection? What about disappointment?

Who gets under your character’s skin? Why?

If your character could describe his/her perfect future to you, what would that look like?

What’s one thing you know about your character that he/she doesn’t yet?

Let me know if you have any questions, and happy writing!

As part of an extra service, when I wrote GG Bios for every Guilty Gear character, in classic tradition, I would often describe their weapons and fighting style and even list their movelist history in great detail...

I also have a separate tag specifically for GG+Weapons and going further in to Movelist+Evolution, which chronicles the development of their respective fighting styles... not to mention the Instant+Kill tag.

Part of a fighter's history is not only the development of their fighting style, but the history they have interacted with it, their teachers, the weapons they've obtained or created along the way and the philosophies they created while honing their craft.

While teaching and mastery of such esoteric and often Magic-based arts aren't exactly something some characters can replicate OR teach (because of how unique each character in Guilty Gear is)... at the very least their styles and weapons can at least somewhat be documented here on my blog as well as I can manage.

Oh yes, and I also have a separate tag for an entirely old category called "Ancient+Martial+Arts", as well as discussion on the art of using Ki or Qi.

Seeing as Guilty Gear is mostly about the Thrice-Damned Bio-Weapons KNOWN as GEARS, I also have a separate tag for the physiology of GEARS as well.

Okay, that's enough hyperlinks... leading BACK in to your question... many characters like Millia and Zato can't exactly pass their powers on to any sort of protégé in a traditional sense, though I suppose they can be something of a mentor at the very least, as each has their own unique personality quirks and nuances as you might expect...

Most likely if one were to explore the world of Guilty Gear that way, they would likely be "crafting" their own unique weapons and learning Magic arts along the way, borrowing a few "technique ideas" like Sin Kiske already has...

Going even further, this traces itself back to the Robo-Ky Mark II Factory of Guilty Gear Isuka, which allowed players to customize their own unique Robo-Ky with moves that copied the techniques of their favorite characters. (And hey, I wouldn't mind building a robot version of my favorite characters and custom moves, myself!)

Yeahp, Isuka was ahead of its time, believe it or not!

PSA, League of Legends has a LOL themed character builder on their website and its very fun.

M does appreciate the things that the MC does for them. To think otherwise is a disservice to their character. They just have severe social anxiety— so no they wouldn’t be able to “stick it out”. That’s not something that you can just make them do. And if you try? They would more than likely have a full blown anxiety attack. By asking this you’re disregarding their feelings in favor of your own. M likes subtle gifts and gestures. They’ve never been ones for extravagant shows of affection. Nor have they ever been comfortable enough in crowds to receive them. It’s gotten to the point that they don’t even like grand gestures (that you would do in front of a crowd) even in private, because they can feel the eyes that would be on them. Feel the way their breathing starts to quicken, how their blood starts to roar in their ears and their palms become clammy.

And if you’re simply doing the act to get validation? To receive a response? (Once again disregarding the negative affects it has on the one you’re directing the gesture towards?) The gesture was never for M in the first place. It was for you.
