1) Name: I’m assuming this is K’Nika?
It is K’Nika Ceubherna yes, but right now she is living as Annika Black.
2) Age: maybe 20 here
Yeah, around in there. College student.
3) Career/Role in Story: Side character
One of the MCs actually.
You see she’s a scientist at heart, and created this doorway that connects my fantasy world to the modern world. So she’s staying in the real world and trying to act like a kid her age but she has no idea what happened to her real family after the attack in the forest.
She’s taken in by a family, the Hugh family, and I already did the twins and Libby’s faceclaims earlier so if you’re interested 😉
4) Personality: sweet, quiet, gives the benefit of the doubt a lot, a little emotional, shy, patient… She’s just K’Nika XD
Yeah, and she’s very unusual to most people. Like I said before she’s a college student. She’s very smart, but kind and I think she does doubt a lot.
5) Would you be friends with that character?: of course!
Yesssss
6) Any other details you may have gotten from the picture: I love her eyes lol
Me tooooooo
If i remember right she’s not technically human? I mean, she currently has like pink or purple hair with pointed ears
Yeah but that was a magic-science thing she does. She’s pretty human, except for the fact she can touch Lightning and the like like it’s nothing, remember the rocks in the cave? She could touch that and not feel the shock.
7) What would this character’s nickname be?: ohh Julian hasn’t given her one has he?? Blue hair, new princess, hmm…. she’d probably be like “gorgeous” or something XDDD
Haha well Dillon calls her Anna. Delaney sticks with Annika unless I’m a formal situation where he calls her Miss Black. Or if he’s excited or super upset he’ll used K’Nika, her real name.
8) Character’s greatest strength: that thing she did to transform
Science? XD that’s the thing she did to change her appearance. Science with magic.
However… idk. Determination maybe.
9) Character’s fatal flaw: she’s naive
Hesitant. Or idk she is still new for me
10) Phrase that this character is likely to say: “*raises eyebrows*”
Honestly yes.
12) Character’s family status (parents alive? any siblings or other close family members?): dunno. yet. I assume she’s an only child since I don’t remember her mentioning a sibling
Her real family consists of her parents, Rem’i and Nylae. Also Mrik’an her older brother, and Nirs’li her little sister.
The family who took her in on the real world are the Hugh’s. The parents (names undecided), and Libby, Delaney, Dillon, Sloane and Daniel. All their names mean something and I lovveeeee ittttt. XD
13) Single or taken?: hehehe
Lol it’s complicated. (I’ll do another interview with her even later in the story and I’ll tag you.) Anywho I don’t believe so, but Dillon likes her… so. hehe
14) Characters children (if any?): not yet?
Lol yea
15) Characters hobbies: studying science
Yes. Hanging out with friends, and maybe playing Stiks with the Hugh’s. (Stiks is a group game that her tribe would play that she taught them) She probably plays the sports of the siblings which right now includes Disc Golf, Fencing, Volleyball and maybe others. Reading.
16) Greatest fear: her family getting hurt
Well maybe this second family. Since she lost the first. I think Delaney scares her in one scene I can picture in my head hehe. Ugh yes.
Being found out, actually though. If people heard her real story and background they’d either think her insane or they’d want to try to get to her world. Danger.
17) Dreams and Aspirations: to be free and happy with those she loves
I think she misses her home and her family. She wants to find out what happened to them.
18) Darkest Secret: she is secretly in love with Julian
Hahahahahaha *wipes away a tear* no. XD
Again her past.
19) Peculiarities: she uses her finger to trace shapes on things when she’s bored or in her own world and she blinks fast when she’s mad
Oooo I like.
20) The meaning of their name, (Either real meaning or your own story meaning): Nika means “very good” and kanika means “atom, seed, or gold” so I’m gonna say “very good gold” 👍
Uuuhhhhhhh idk well I made K’Nika up but Ceubherna is the combination of the words Dubh and Černá, the words for Black in Irish and Czech. Her clan (family within the tribe)’s colors are black, which is why she usually wears black.
For her name in the real world,
Kannika is a Thai name that Means “night-flowering jasmine” (a type of flower) in Thai.
But Annika is a diminutive of ‘Anna’ which comes from ‘Hannah’, which means Favor or Grace.
And Black is just the English version of her real last name in a way, so.
Hope you had funnn

Heyyyyyyy allllllllllll!
Things have been crazy for me, but I do have a new character for y’all!!
( @erynne XDXD)soooooo yeah.
i don’t know much about her yet, so…. Yeah…OH SNAP I REMEMBERED SOMETHING
XD it’s okay I’ll do math and calculate her age later.
anywhooooo
Here she is!!!
"If your goal is purity in heart, be prepared to be thought very odd." -Elisabeth Elliott
oooh she’s pretty! sorry I haven’t been on in a while
1) Name: Angelica or something elegant sounding
2) Age: late teens, early twenties
3) Career/Role in Story: side character or main character
4) Personality: Rather intense. She puts passion into everything she does. Tends to be serious most of the time and is very perceptive of her surroundings… she’s either the voice of reason or the reason the group is in trouble. There is no inbetween.
5) Would you be friends with that character?: I think so.
6) Any other details you may have gotten from the picture: Her clothes aren’t of a typical modern styling, so I assume this is fantasy. Also her eyes are very icy and I keep thinking of Elsa or one of my own characters.
7) What would this character’s nickname be?: Ice queen lol. I don’t really know… Angel or maybe something about her stubbornness
8) Character’s greatest strength: She’s firm in her beliefs and doesn’t take trash from anyone.
9) Character’s fatal flaw: She has a hard time accepting when she’s wrong, and refuses to run away from danger and tries to handle all of her problems by herself.
10) Phrase that this character is likely to say: “Of course it’s a good plan. It was my plan.”
12) Character’s family status (parents alive? any siblings or other close family members?): Either a well-to-do family or she’s an orphan
13) Single or taken?: single
14) Characters children (if any?): none
15) Characters hobbies: Archery and fencing
16) Greatest fear: Finding a problem she can’t fix on her own
17) Dreams and Aspirations: I’m not sure.
18) Darkest Secret: She buries her weaknesses under an icy facade. Not really a secret, but its something she keeps hidden at all times
19) Peculiarities: She likes small details in things. The tiny geometrics in snowflakes, speckles in butterfly wings, those are the sorts of things she enjoys seeing. Notices similar tiny details in the people she meets too.
20) The meaning of their name, (Either real meaning or your own story meaning): Something relating to beauty or grace
@ajstoryteller I’ll get back to you with my character, I thought I’d let @erynne and anyone try who wanted to first.
"If your goal is purity in heart, be prepared to be thought very odd." -Elisabeth Elliott
I’ll try my hand at guessing your character.
1. Name: Dorian or Ciaran
2. Age: somewhere around 45
3. Career/Role in Story: he is the OC’s advisor and guide though we aren’t always sure he is always giving the best advice
4. Personality: easygoing, confident, usually means well, worldly (meaning he knows much about the world)
5. Would you be friends with that character? Yes, but I would be cautious
6. Any other details noticed? He seems to be introducing himself, has a sharp face, and is surrounded by a strange shadow
7. Nickname: Key (based on the name Ciaran)
8. Greatest Strength: observant
9. Fatal Flaw: while he means well, he doesn’t always weigh the guidance he gives
10. Phrase this character is likely to say: “It’ll work out fine, trust me.”
11. Character’s family status: one sister, parents, everyone’s alive yet estranged from him
12. Single or taken? Single
13. Children? None
14. Hobbies: acting, studying people’s habits and reactions to their environment
15. Greatest Fear: not having an answer to any situation
16. Dreams and Aspirations: uh, I don’t know
18. Darkest Secret: his wanting to have an answer to every situation stems from when he failed a friend because he did not know what to do
19. Peculiarities: polishes his shoes when he is nervous, straightens his tie when in an awkward situation
20. Meaning of their name: Ciaran means “dark” but I chose that because of the lighting not so much of his personality;
@ajstoryteller I’m going to go ahead since I have a new character to do.
@erynne if you want to do it don’t read the answers lol 😂oooh she’s pretty! sorry I haven’t been on in a while
Thankssss
1) Name: Angelica or something elegant sounding
It’s Isolde Coleden.
2) Age: late teens, early twenties
Yeah…. So uh math, I have to make sure she is actually older that her brother hold on…. Yeah so I think she’s around 20.
3) Career/Role in Story: side character or main character
Well that depends in the story she appears in…
She was abandoned in a forest as a baby. I know that she was raised somehow but I’m not sure how. She doesn’t know anything about her biological family, except that she was left with a box that hinted royalty or high nobility.
At some point she does get these ice Powers, don’t know how yet, which causes her to suddenly be tossed into a ring of legends which she could care nothing about.
4) Personality: Rather intense. She puts passion into everything she does. Tends to be serious most of the time and is very perceptive of her surroundings… she’s either the voice of reason or the reason the group is in trouble. There is no in between.
Yeah. That’s all like really good. She takes the leading role usually because she is older.
5) Would you be friends with that character?: I think so.
Yeah… she might get scary sometimes though.
6) Any other details you may have gotten from the picture: Her clothes aren’t of a typical modern styling, so I assume this is fantasy. Also her eyes are very icy and I keep thinking of Elsa or one of my own characters.
Yeah she’s fantasy, and that’s exactly what I going for with her eyes!!!! At some point she actually does ‘inherit’ ice powers. But I don’t want her to seem so much like Elsa. Her hair has a red tint to it which hints of a Lepaian heritage.
7) What would this character’s nickname be?: Ice queen lol. I don’t really know… Angel or maybe something about her stubbornness
You’re so closeeeeee
Uh I actually don’t know.
8) Character’s greatest strength: She’s firm in her beliefs and doesn’t take trash from anyone.
Yeah. Very headstrong, obstinate, seemingly fearless.
9) Character’s fatal flaw: She has a hard time accepting when she’s wrong, and refuses to run away from danger and tries to handle all of her problems by herself.
Yep.
10) Phrase that this character is likely to say: “Of course it’s a good plan. It was my plan.”
Hm, yeah, she might.
12) Character’s family status (parents alive? any siblings or other close family members?): Either a well-to-do family or she’s an orphan
Both!!!! *grins*
So on her father’s side, she was a princess. She has many half siblings because her father, king of Terriad, kept remarrying until he had a son, in a similar way to that of King Henry from our world.
She’s the oldest, which makes sense as she was a girl. She herself was abandoned and her mother sent away, everyone believed that they were both killed.
On that side she has a half sister and brother who were twins, but since the brother was younger they were also sent away.
Another half sister followed and she received similar treatment. Later she married a Duke, Jonathan Karson, and she’s an MC in her own story as well as a side character and mother to Cassidy Blaine and other characters that have already been interviewed. OH She’s the colorless one!
Her youngest half brother came after her and you know, finally a prince and stuff.
That’s only her father’s side.
Her mother remarried and lived with the Mallea, and so Isolde is half-siblings with Kallun Strenght, who was also interviewed not too long ago.
13) Single or taken?: single
Yeah.
14) Characters children (if any?): none
Yeah.
15) Characters hobbies: Archery and fencing
I mean if that’s available to her, sure. But idk if it is. She’d enjoy it though. I’m not sure what her hobbies would be other than that.
16) Greatest fear: Finding a problem she can’t fix on her own
Probably. Maybe finding out the truth of her family.
17) Dreams and Aspirations: I’m not sure.
Same. Lol.
18) Darkest Secret: She buries her weaknesses under an icy facade. Not really a secret, but its something she keeps hidden at all times
Oh yeah. Definitely. I bet her ice powers are often difficult to hide.
19) Peculiarities: She likes small details in things. The tiny geometrics in snowflakes, speckles in butterfly wings, those are the sorts of things she enjoys seeing. Notices similar tiny details in the people she meets too.
Ah yes. I like that. Thank you.
20) The meaning of their name, (Either real meaning or your own story meaning): Something relating to beauty or grace
Hehehe this is actually really great.
Isolde actually means Snow Queen, which is why I’m tying that into her actual character.
Coleden is a name from the Green Ember books that I absolutely love.
Hope you had funnnnnn!!
thank you!
"If your goal is purity in heart, be prepared to be thought very odd." -Elisabeth Elliott
Wow. I was a lot closer than I thought I was.
She sounds like a really cool character… in both meanings of the word lol
Glad I could help!
1. Name: Dorian or Ciaran
Edward Korsahn, but I usually just refer to him as Korsahn
2. Age: somewhere around 45
eeeh, I struggle with the math too, uh, but I think it would be somewhere in his forties
3. Career/Role in Story: he is the OC’s advisor and guide though we aren’t always sure he is always giving the best advice
…oh. oh no. he’s actually a villain… though the second part does apply
4. Personality: easygoing, confident, usually means well, worldly (meaning he knows much about the world)
He definitely gives off that vibe, except for the well meaning part. He’s a bit dramatic and likes to think he’s two steps ahead of everyone else. He’s very calm and confident as long he is or can trick everyone else into believing he’s in control. He doesn’t trust easily, and never let’s anyone too close.
5. Would you be friends with that character? Yes, but I would be cautious
Nope. He’ll try to flatter people and trick them into thinking he’s their friend, but he’s usually just keeping them around for their usefulness. If he does enjoy someone’s company, he has tendency to become controlling and to ensure that they don’t leave him.
6. Any other details noticed? He seems to be introducing himself, has a sharp face, and is surrounded by a strange shadow
shadow is stylistic choice mostly, born from me discovery on new tool in my art program lol. But yes, he is supposed he introducing himself as he is a very friendly guy and is looking for new “business partners”
7. Nickname: Key (based on the name Ciaran)
Not sure, but he does have an alias for villainous activities
8. Greatest Strength: observant
He is. He really knows how to spot weaknesses and strengths in people and to trigger the responses he wants from them.
9. Fatal Flaw: while he means well, he doesn’t always weigh the guidance he gives
Maybe pride? I’m not sure, but he does grow to hate one MC because they’ve directly insulted his status as the one in control, and in a way got through his defenses. It was a device of sorts that he prided himself on for being impossible for others to control. In comes 14 year old child who proceeds to take control of it himself. In reality, it was a small thing, insignificant to the overall plan, but it exposed a weakness/oversight, and Korsahn can’t have that.
10. Phrase this character is likely to say: “It’ll work out fine, trust me.”
Yes. He would… while planning to stab the person he’s saying it to in the back
11. Character’s family status: one sister, parents, everyone’s alive yet estranged from him
Orphan. No siblings.
12. Single or taken? Single
Currently. He’s had several relationships, but because he either becomes controlling or apathetic, none of them lasted for long
13. Children? None
One. A sweet girl named Leah.
14. Hobbies: acting, studying people’s habits and reactions to their environment
…right on the nose. He most definitely loves people watching, and loves theater and literature. Probably a bookworm.
15. Greatest Fear: not having an answer to any situation
Losing control, loving someone and being betrayed/abandoned by them, being manipulated by someone else. Ironically all of things he does/will do to others
16. Dreams and Aspirations: uh, I don’t know
<p style=”text-align: left;”>To be in control and to not have to worry about his fears</p>
18. Darkest Secret: his wanting to have an answer to every situation stems from when he failed a friend because he did not know what to doI don’t know have one particular secret, but because he feels that he can’t trust anyone, well, there are a lot of things he’s hidden
19. Peculiarities: polishes his shoes when he is nervous, straightens his tie when in an awkward situation
Not sure about any nervous ticks yet, but he doesn’t really care if people think he’s a bad person nor does he hide it. Currently, in the public eye he’s a wealthy suave jerk known for stealing ideas from other companies, and his love life’s tragedies are notorious.
20. Meaning of their name: Ciaran means “dark” but I chose that because of the lighting not so much of his personality;
Korsahn I made up, and Edward because I wanted something that sounded a bit pretentious. I apologize to the other Edwards out there.
Thank you for interviewing him! I still see some flat bits in his character that I need to round out, but it’s less than there was before.
@ajstoryteller Yeah! You really surprised me lol
"If your goal is purity in heart, be prepared to be thought very odd." -Elisabeth Elliott
HEY XD
So I’m just doing this one for fun.
(story) I was doing some research on hurdy gurdies and was shopping for a hurdy gurdy when I came upon a picture of a painting of a girl and decided I should base a character off the girl in the painting.
That’s what’s happening.
So I know nothing about her.
Dig down deep into your imaginations and pull out some lovely ideas! XP
Or don’t. You don’t have too. 😂
"If your goal is purity in heart, be prepared to be thought very odd." -Elisabeth Elliott

4) Personality: Sweet and playful, tends to be quiet but has a lick of mischief in her
5) Would you be friends with that character?: She seems like a sweet girl, so yes
6) Any other details you may have gotten from the picture: With the instrument, she either has musical training or knows someone who does, perhaps she’s part of a roving band of minstrels…

8) Character’s greatest strength: She’s naturally charming, and it’s hard to be upset with her, and she sees beauty in places where others can’t

10) Phrase that this character is likely to say: No specific phrase, but she has a very soft voice
11) Character’s favorite color(s): Warmer tones that remind her of cozy campfires around which stories are told and songs are sung

19) Peculiarities: Her head is a library of memorized songs and tunes, and she finds a lot strange and odd creatures cute or pretty
20) The meaning of their name, (Either real meaning or your own story meaning): Annalee just has a musical sound to it, and “lee” reminds me of the word ‘little’. Sylbard, Syl from ‘sylvan’ because she has a bit of wildness hidden behind the sweet smile, and ‘bard’ from the musical association.
And while I’m on here, I’ll put out a challenge of my own:
Curious to see what you think of her…
I’m back!!!! Okay, I’ll give her a go.
1) Name: Ciranna
2) Age: like 30s or 40s. It’s kinda hard to tell since she’s sort of alien- or faerie-like

20) The meaning of their name (Either real meaning or your own story meaning): means “cloudy/stormy”
This is perhaps the greatest risk any of us will ever take: to be seen as we truly are.
