101 Questions You Should Be Able to Answer About Your Character
Basics
1. What is your full name? Do you have a nickname?
Lulu Skwigelf.I don't have a last name due to my parents' death when I was very young. But that's fine, it's not something I've ever given worry to. I have a last name now, and a family, through marriage.
2. How old are you? When is your birthday?
I'm twenty-two. I was born right before the weather got cold in Besaid, but the calendars here aren't the same. I'm going to celebrate it on November 22nd, simply because I think it should be celebrated, but it likely isn't the exact day of my birth. It's lost to Spira, I guess.
3. Where were you born? Where do you live now? Are you patriotic?
I was born on the island of Besaid in the world known as Spira. Patriotism isn't a notion that we embraced very much; Spira was more of its own nation and her separate islands were what I think this world would consider states. I would have given my life to protect Yuna on her quest to save them.
4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities, etc.)
I don't know.
5. Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?
I don't know about biological siblings, but I do consider Yuna to be my younger sister.
6. What is your occupation?
I am the owner of a toy store in London. It does well enough that I don't have to be there constantly, though I do try to oversee as much business as I can. I am also a mother and a wife.
7. How tall are you? How much do you weigh?
I'm about 5'2, and I weigh 135 pounds. I had to check.
8. What color is your hair? What color are your eyes?
I have brown hair and eyes.
9. What is your race?
Spiran.
10. To which social class do you belong?
It's a difficult question to answer in regards to Spira; I wasn't a member of the clergy or a summoner, but I was a Guardian. I suppose I had some status, but it wasn't really something we strove for there. We were more concerned with living. Here in London, I'm fairly well off, but I'm far from wealthy.
11. Do you consider yourself to be attractive? Do others?
From what other people tell me I am, but I honestly don't worry about what other people think. I like myself. I'm strong enough to run from enemies, and I've always liked my eyes. I'd like to think they'd be like my parents'.
12. What is your style of dress?
Whatever I wish. I miss the dress I made in Spira, but there's such variety here in London. I wear anything that catches my eye. I'm fond of skirts, though, and don't normally wear trousers. I'm told that I dress inappropriately, but I like what I wear. I'll say this: anything that makes me feel good.
13. Do you have any scars? Tattoos? Birthmarks? Other unique physical features?
I have a tattoo of the the Fayth Bahamut on my back, between my shoulderblades, and the song that Skwisgaar wrote for me around my right wrist.
14. Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?
I'm not as strong as my companions were, but that's not the same. So, no.
15. Are you right- or left-handed?
Right.
16. What does your voice sound like?
I've noticed that it's a bit deeper than other women I know, but it's fairly non-distinct otherwise.
17. What kind of vocabulary do you use?
I'm told my speech is a bit formal. I'm trying to pick up more slang, though I admit I'm not very good at it.
18. List three quirks or other defining characteristics.
I have to practice magic for at least an hour a day to feel sane.
When I'm upset or panicked I close my eyes and think of my home in Besaid to keep from crying.
I like to be by myself on the anniversary of Chappu's death.
19. How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes?
I shower only when I need to wash my hair, which is generally every other day. Other than that, I prefer bathing. It wasn't a luxury we had on Spira - we had no running or hot water on Besaid - so I like to spend time there, thinking. I love bath things, and generally lean toward warm smells: vanilla, coconut, amber. I wear scented oil during the day, usually "Eternal", a perfume I find very interesting.
20. What kind of facial expression do you commonly wear (dour glare, wry smile, etc)?
I was told many times by Wakka and Chappu that I look scary. I don't know if that's accurate or not.
21. Do you use body language? How?
I'm unaware if I do, though I think I may look fairly rigid at times because my past dictated it necessary.
22. Do you have a commonly used saying?
No.
