A-Z of Mannerisms/Behaviors

J. Judge: Is your character quick to judge other characters on their mannerisms, or do they prefer to get to know someone before judging?

Jamil always makes snap judgements about people, it was something he was taught to do growing up, however, he never lets his initial impressions cloud his first experience with a person, and prefers to judge them based on who they really are after having met them.

A. Accent: What accent does your character have? Are there any words or phrases they use more often than other people? How good is your character at imitating other accents and sounds?

He has a very light, North Prakran accent as that's where he was born and raised for the first decade or so of his life, but he's spent so much time out of Prakra/speaking other languages primarily, that it's not extremely noticeable. Since he started learning other languages from a very young age, he is very good at imitating sounds from other languages that might differ from his native Prakran. He tends to adopt the accent of a native speaker wherever he goes, though his speech is usually very formal.

M. Muse: Does your character talk when they’re alone, or to inanimate objects?

Answered here!

I. Impression: What do other characters first think of your character, based on their body language and way of speaking? Is this first impression usually accurate?

This depends on the context of the first meeting!

If someone is meeting Jamil at a formal event, some kind of party or masquerade, or charity event, basically anywhere that impressions, manners, and etiquette matter, he is going to come off extremely well put together, and like he was born into that world (because, well, he was). He knows how to engage in polite conversation even when others are not being polite in return, and comes across as warm and charming, if not a bit detached. His posture is always perfect, hair slicked/braided/pulled back out of his face, beard neatly trimmed, clothes perfectly fitted and made just for him (by him, usually).

However, if someone meets Jamil while he is out in the city, performing with the rest of the band, perusing the marketplace/red market, or just hanging out at the shop, he is going to come off much more relaxed, and most people who meet him first this way are surprised to later learn about his "other side" and his background. He knows how to open up around others when possible, and enjoys entertaining those around him. Though good posture is basically engrained in him, he will relax a bit, leaning against walls or his friends, his hair is usually down, and his clothes are looser and not as intricately designed.

Neither is completely accurate/inaccurate, both impressions are very much who Jamil is!

L. Location: Does your character use any regional slang? Are any mannerisms more common in their home location than in other places?

As he's spent the majority of his life traveling, Jamil uses slang from all over the map, depending on how comfortable he is with the language/how long he spent around it. Most of his slang comes from Venterre as that's where his family is, and it's also where he picked up specific mannerisms. The D'Oria all click their tongue in the same way when speaking, usually to show some sort of dismissal in their tone, and both Jamil and Camia picked this up when they were very young. (Alec and Leon picked it up from them later on.)

Aww you're too kind aaa 😭💕

LOL you got it 😂

A-Z of Mannerisms/Behaviors

R. Relax: What mannerisms does your character have when they’re relaxed?

Rodrigo slouches on literally everything when he's relaxed, everything and everyone around him, throws his arms over people's shoulders; has a very neutral/bored expression when he's relaxed, will pick at the polish on his nails

O. Odd: Does your character tend to make unusual facial expressions, or have unusual speech patterns? Do they do anything that other characters make fun of?

He has unusual speech patterns in the sense that his native tongue is Nopali (fantasy Mexican Spanish) and so anything he speaks in Common/Vesuvian is going to follow those rules of speech; he also frequently confuses sayings between the two languages and ends up saying something completely nonsensical - and that gets him teased by Jacqui and/or Jade, but only Lovingly

D. Dance: How does your character dance? Are they good at it, or bad at it? Do they dance confidently, even if they’re bad at it, or do they get embarrassed?

He grew up dancing with his Mami, mostly to mariachi and Folklorico music, like the Jarabe Tapatío, but he is familiar with other styles like salsa and bachata—and he is very, very good, if not a little rusty at it, and he is always up to show off his skills, of course

I. Impression: What do other characters first think of your character, based on their body language and way of speaking? Is this first impression usually accurate?

That he is an annoying, self-absorbed, vain asshole, and let's be honest, that's not fair from the truth. He carries himself as such, hand on his hip, twirling some kind of weapon in his fingers, always with a smug smile on his face that you either want to kiss or punch right off <3

G. Grow: Has your character picked up any mannerisms from other characters? Do they tend to imitate other people without realizing it?

2, 5, 17, 22, and 29 :3c

Coming right up ;)

2. What turns them on/off?

There’s a lot that turns him on, but he’s specifically attracted to confidence and bluntness

You wanna suck him off? Great, tell him that and you’re good to go

He doesn’t like people that play too hard to get, eventually he will lose interest if it feels like he’s getting nowhere fast

5. Easiest way to seduce them?

Be straightforward, like mentioned above

Tell him what you want him to do to you, or, if you’re confident enough that it can go the other way, what you want to do to him

Put on a little show, like giving him a teasing peek at what you are (or are not) wearing under your clothes, but be prepared to not make it back to a room before he decides to pounce

17. Their bra or dick size?

His dick is a 6 inch, more long than thick, and he has two frenum piercings

22. Their favorite place on the body to be kissed?

He won’t object to kisses anywhere but he loves being kissed and marked up on his neck and shoulders the most

29. Wild card. Give us a fun fact!
