(Repost cause nobody noticed last time. Probably cause I posted it so late last time lol. Though, I am adding a bit more info so that it isn't a waste of time.)
So, on comicfury there's a challenge going on where we answer questions about our characters. The questions are pulled from a website containing a lot of character development questions. The thing is, they're doing this ONE QUESTION A DAY. So, I thought, why not do them all at once? And here we are! *Snrk* I'll use Kirby for this challenge, with Gooey chiming in whenever Kirby isn't giving the full picture. (Note: I replaced all mentions of humans lol)
Part 1: The Basics
What is your full name? "Kirby Galacta Geargrind is my normal name, but my Matter name is Aeon Matter."
Where and when were you born? "I was created on the death star, 18,049 years ago. I'll be 18,050 in a week."
Who are/were your parents? (Know their names, occupations, personalities, etc.) "I was made by Zero, but I was raised by U.S.H.R.A. Zero is the 'King' of the dark matter, and is pretty stern and vicious as far as I'm aware. U.S.H.R.A. was a discarded war robot that took me in. She was very sweet, and kind. Always willing to help out whenever necessary. Willing to take in a stranger. And her cooking was wonderful, the best I ever tasted... Sorry, I'm getting carried away."
Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like? "Adoptively, I only have- er, had one: Termina. He was my 'big bro'. He had a nice sense of humor and liked to hang out with me all the time. Although, genetically, I have... Thousands of siblings. And Zero keeps making more by the day, so I can't keep track. I'm the oldest living one, but a few notable siblings include Gooey, a positive like me, Swordsman, who tried to take over Dream Land one time, Miracle, some crazy mutated Matter that acts like an errand boy, and Oxygen, who's the 'Prince' of the hivemind, but everyone calls him 02. I think I had a sister named Blob, but she seems to be dead."
Where do you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people. "I live on the northwest edge of Whispy's Woods, and around 20 miles from Dedede's closest castle. It's really windy around here, but I don't mind. As for who I live with, there's this Tick-Tock Jr. that I adopted around 35 years ago. He's really sweet, and likes to sleep a lot."
What is your occupation? "When I'm not saving the world from some eldritch monstrosity? I work part-time at a small cafe in Waddle Dee town. It's got decent pay. for the most part, but geeze, does it give me a workout."
Write a full physical description of yourself. You might want to consider factors such as: height, weight, race, hair and eye color, style of dress, and any tattoos, scars, or distinguishing marks. "My species is a mix between a puff and a batamon, which is a type of dark matter. Gooey likes to call me a batapuff. I'm 3 foot tall, with pink fur on most of my body except for my feet, which are red. My eyes are blue, though some people say that they turn cyan sometimes. I have a normal puff physique except for the fact that I don't have paws. I do have scars where my paws used to be, however, along with a few scars on my forehead and back that show where my horns and wings used to be."
To which social class do you belong? "Ok, that's kind of a hard one... I mean, technically I should be considered low-class due to my living conditions, but I'm quite friendly with King Dedede. And then there's the fact that I'm a world famous hero. So, I'm unsure, really."
Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses? "Well... I guess if you consider lost limbs as a physical weakness. There's also that year-long hibernation that happens every 50 years because of lost magic, but all dark matter do that."
Gooey: "He starves himself, by the way. I'm surprised he has enough strength to battle most of the time."
Are you right- or left-handed? "I'm right handed. Nubbed? Whatever floats your boat."
What does your voice sound like? "Slightly higher pitched than average. Dedede says that I sound melodic and rhythmic for some reason?"
Gooey: "Well, from my perspective, his voice is a countertenor that normally sounds soft spoken, and can also be a little monotonous at times."
What words and/or phrases do you use very frequently? "Poyo! It means chicken in my original language, spanish, but I just find it really fun to say. Plus it's easy to pronounce, so I can say it easily when I don't wanna say anything. ...Which is most of the time."
What do you have in your pockets? "If by pockets you mean my internal void, I have absolutely anything and everything you could possibly think of. Weapons, board games, radioactive waste, clothing, food, anything! ...Well, except for living people, 'cause they usually get teleported out soon after I swallow them."
Do you have any quirks, strange mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics? "Well... I'm silent most of the time, usually only broken by the occasional Poyo. Dunno what else would qualify."
Gooey: "Well, you're always the first to rush off into danger if you're awake, you tend to fight first and ask questions later, you get chatty when you're nervous, and you starve yourself."
Part 2: Growing Up
How would you describe your childhood in general? "...Turbulent. How else am I supposed to describe trying to take over the world, swapping to becoming a galaxy-wide hero, deciding I wanted to kill everyone, going BACK to being a hero, and then turning into a wanderer?"
What is your earliest memory? "Seeing something out of the corner of my eye and breaking out of line to take a look. I wish I hadn't done that. I really, really wish I hadn't done that."
How much schooling have you had? "Oh, plenty. U.S.H.R.A. made sure I had enough to get by, but my battle schooling came from the Star Warrior Trainee Preparation Division, or the SWTPD for short. ... though, I can only read binary cause of U.S.H.R.A..."
Did you enjoy school? "The SWTPD? Absolutely! U.S.H.R.A.'s homeschooling? Absolutely not!"
Where did you learn most of your skills and other abilities? "Like I said, the SWTPD. Though, the first time I copied an ability was a fluke, and I didn't try again until around 46 years ago."
Gooey: "I actually helped him out a little when he was trying to figure out what all he could copy! He's a quick learner, though, so he outclassed me pretty fast."
While growing up, did you have any role models? If so, describe them. "Well, unless you consider that puff I saw flying around that gave me the idea to take over Halcandra, no."
While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family? "Me and Termina had a bit of a rivalry when it came to fighting, but otherwise we were the best of friends. I tried to be formal to U.S.H.R.A. at first, but she quickly got me out of that."
As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? "A Star Warrior! ... and a puff, technically..."
As a child, what were your favorite activities? "Fighting, eating, and sleeping. I haven't changed."
As a child, what kinds of personality traits did you display? "I was a lot more talkative back then, but otherwise, same as now."
Gooey: "He was also a lot less depressed from what I've heard."
As a child, were you popular? Who were your friends, and what were they like? "Oh, 'popular' is a severe understatement. I was a damn hero! And my friends? Well, there's Countdown, the galactic nova that I tricked Termina into summoning when we met. We named him that cause of his quirk of counting down sometimes. There's also Papi, a paradise butterfly that liked to hang around my house. Morpho, Papi's little sister, used to be my friend too, but I'm 500% sure she hates my guts now. Oh, almost forgot Faille! He was a merchant that gave me and my friends our living weapons."
When and with whom was your first kiss? "Er... it was back in my glory days, with Papi, but why are you asking this?"
Are you a virgin? If not, when and with whom did you lose your virginity? "I-I'm a virgin, but what the heck is up with these questions?!"
If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. If you are just a normal person, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today. "Hoo boy, that's one heck of a story... I'll just give you a quick summary. So, one day I caught a glimpse of a puff flying around and got the great idea to turn myself into a puff. So, I made up a convoluted plan to trick the sun and moon to fight to trick somebody with a warpstar to run off and summon a nova, that person happening to be Termina. Somehow, my plan worked, and just when Term was about to make that wish I stole it and wished to control halcandra? Dunno why I thought that would work, but it did, and next thing I knew I was a puff. Now, how I turned into a cross between a puff and a batamon is kinda personal, so I'll just say that I lost some vital magic that kept my form together."
Part 3: Past Influences
What do you consider the most important event of your life so far? "When I turned into a batapuff. It damned my life, it damned everyone else's lives on halcandra, and now I'm stuck with the knowledge that I screwed everyone over. Yippie."
Who has had the most influence on you? "U.S.H.R.A., definately. She raised me."
Gooey: "And because of that, Kirby acts like a robot sometimes, I've noticed."
What do you consider your greatest achievement? "Sealing Void back into that jamba heart. Though, I did go crazy after that..."
What is your greatest regret? "Breaking out of line that day. Everything would've been better if I hadn't become positive in the first place."
What is the most evil thing you have ever done? "...Kill Termina. ...I don't wanna elaborate..."
Do you have a criminal record of any kind? "Yes, very much so. Mass genocide is the most well known, but then there's also that sun/moon incident I told you about. And what I said for the last question..."
When was the time you were the most frightened? "Right after I-I killed my brother- oh god, I need to stop thinking about that... Anyways, I was so in shock that I fled the entire dimension. Though, a close second would be when I saw the sun and moon fighting on Popstar, then turning around and seeing a noddy that looked a lot like me somehow."
What is the most embarrassing thing ever to happen to you? "Oof, it's a tie between the first time I tried to possess someone and the fact that I did ballet once. Uhg, why am I admitting this?"
If you could change one thing from your past, what would it be, and why? "I'd make sure I'd never turn positive, for reasons already mentioned."
What is your best memory? "Flying into the sunset at the Orange Ocean with Termina, Papi and Countdown. I'll never forget that moment, ever, as long as I live."
What is your worst memory? "Termina's death..."
Part 4: Beliefs And Opinions
Are you basically optimistic or pessimistic? "Most people who don't know me would say I'm optimistic, but people who know me tend to say I'm a pessimist. I think I'm just a realist."
What is your greatest fear? "Myself."
Gooey: "He's scared that his life is coming back to haunt him in the form of Marx."
What are your religious views? "Well, Illusion seems like the best choice, considering my interactions with Void/Destruction and Creation's history."
What are your political views? "I don't freaking care about politics, and you can shove them in my face all you want, they're just stupid and meaningless to me."
What are your views on sex? "... it's what you do to make babies?"
Are you able to kill? Under what circumstances do you find killing to be acceptable or unacceptable? "I don't think I can kill anyone willingly after what happened with Termina. Though, if it was life or death and the only option, then yes, that's fine."
In your opinion, what is the most evil thing anyone could do? "Kill their own sibling."
Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love? "Yes, and mine has already been killed..."
What do you believe makes a successful life? "Doing good in general."
How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings (i.e. do you hide your true self from others, and in what way)? "I- Ok, I'm not very honest. I usually hide behind silence and/or a smile."
Gooey: "It's a constant fight to get him to admit anything about what he's going through."
Do you have any biases or prejudices? "Dreamland is amazing, Gooey is the best little brother anyone could have, and lances are the best weapons."
Is there anything you absolutely refuse to do under any circumstances? Why do you refuse to do it? "I will NOT hurt Gooey, ever. Like I said, he's an amazing little brother, and kind of a major mental support for me."
Who or what, if anything, would you die for (or otherwise go to extremes for)? "I'd die for Dreamland. Heck, for Popstar and the entire universe! My current friends, too."
Part 5: Relationships With Others
In general, how do you treat others (politely, rudely, by keeping them at a distance, etc.)? Does your treatment of them change depending on how well you know them, and if so, how? "I tend to keep a distance to those I don't know, but I will fight anyone who gets in my way of saving the world. Though, with my friends, I like to hang out with them a lot."
Who is the most important person in your life, and why? "Gooey. He's helped me get through the hard nights, and I'm not sure if I could go on without him."
Who is the person you respect the most, and why? "Ohhh that's a hard one. But if I had to choose, I guess Taranza. He's the current king of Floralia, and the only higher-up I know personally that hasn't screwed themselves over."
Who are your friends? Do you have a best friend? Describe these people. "I have way too many friends to list off, but I consider Gooey to be my best friend."
Do you have a spouse or significant other? If so, describe this person. "Papi was my significant other. She was strong and courageous, and was the brains in our group. She didn't let anything bring her down, not even when she lost her left arm. She'd put up with whatever stupid ideas me and Termina had, then keep the group together and make us listen to sense. Her demeanor was cold, but she had such a warm voice. And the way her wings fluttered when she was happy... Sorry, got carried away."
Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened. "How am I supposed to describe an 800-long year relationship?!"
What do you look for in a potential lover? "Nothing. I'm not looking for anyone."
How close are you to your family? "My adopted family is dead and my genetic one wants to kill me. Well, except Gooey. I'm extremely close to him."
Have you started your own family? If so, describe them. If not, do you want to? Why or why not? "Even if I did want to make a family, Papi is dead. Though, maybe I already have by adopting that little Tick-Tock Jr..."
Who would you turn to if you were in desperate need of help? "Any of my friends, but Meta, Dedede, Bandee, and Gooey especially."
Do you trust anyone to protect you? Who, and why? "I can take care of myself, thank you very much. But if absolutely necessary, the four I mentioned in the last question would be my go-to's."
If you died or went missing, who would miss you? "My friends might miss me, but I'm not so sure about anyone else."
Gooey: "Everyone in the universe that knows him would miss Kirby if he died. He's become a galaxy-wide hero, for goodness sake!"
Who is the person you despise the most, and why? "Myself. Though, if it has to be someone I know and not me, Marx. I hate his life more than him, though, so I don't think it really counts as 'despising'."
Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict? "I tend to get into fistfights way more than I get into verbal ones."
Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations? "It's not really so much of me taking on the role as everyone giving it to me, but I guess I'm good at it."
Do you like interacting with large groups of people? Why or why not? "No. It forces me to talk, and I don't really like doing that."
Do you care what others think of you? "Nope."
Part 6: Likes And Dislikes
What is/are your favorite hobbies and pastimes? "Eating, sleeping, and destroying eldritch monstrosities is generally what you'll find me doing."
What is your most treasured possession? "My warpstar. It used to be Termina's, and now it's the only thing left of him."
What is your favorite color? "This might seem narcissistic, but pink. Hey, it's a good color!"
Gooey: "Nobody's judging you for having your fur color be your favorite..."
What is your favorite food? "Strawberry shortcake! Who could possibly resist such a sweet dessert?"
What, if anything, do you like to read? "I don't actually read that much cause I can only read binary, but I like it when Gooey reads mystery novels to me."
What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)? "Eating and sleeping are good enough for me, but I guess hanging out with my friends is also a good option."
Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit? "I don't really do that kind of stuff, though Rick and Kine have convinced me to drink with them at a bar sometimes..."
How do you spend a typical Saturday night? "Like I spend any night, going to bed unless the world's in danger."
Gooey: "And when the world's in danger, he doesn't sleep the entire time unless he gets the sleep ability on accident. Dude stays up for days on end..."
What makes you laugh? "Stuff that's funny, specifically puns and reactions."
What, if anything, shocks or offends you? "People trying to take over Popstar constantly really gets on my nerves."
What would you do if you had insomnia and had to find something to do to amuse yourself? "Probably watch a movie."
How do you deal with stress? "I like to stay at home and try to sleep. Gooey says I get chatty when I'm stressed, too."
Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan? "Spontaneous, very, very spontaneous."
What are your pet peeves? (Slightly future Kirby) "All of those royal bastards stealing my stuff, and my friends stuff! I've found two now, what the heck?!"
Part 7: Self Images And Etc.
Describe the routine of a normal day for you. How do you feel when this routine is disrupted? "Wake up, eat, sleep, repeat. It's honestly a little refreshing when something new comes along."
What is your greatest strength as a person? "I guess my adaptability? I mean, I'm starting to be able to copy individuals now, which I recall is a really high level thing for dark matter."
What is your greatest weakness? "How impulsive I am. My impulsiveness has gotten me into more sticky situations than I can recall, and I can recall a lot."
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? "I'd give myself my wings back, absolutely."
Are you generally introverted or extroverted? "I'm not sure? I tend to stay home a lot, so I don't have a lot of interactions to evaluate."
Gooey: "You're introverted, genius."
Are you generally organized or messy? "Messy, my void would make that veeery clear."
Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at. "Well, there's saving the world, copying abilities and eating for things I'm good at, and reading normal text, communicating and singing for things I'm bad at."
Do you like yourself? "Anyone would hate me if they knew what I've done. so, no, I don't."
What are your reasons for being an adventurer (or doing the strange and heroic things that RPG characters do)? Are your real reasons for doing this different than the ones you tell people in public? (If so, detail both sets of reasons...) "Well, my reasoning is kinda simple. If nobody else is gonna do it, or can, I just gotta do it myself."
What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime? "Keeping everyone safe is the one thing I try to persist above all things."
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? "Still here on popstar. I don't think much would change in such a short amount of time."
If you could choose, how would you want to die? "In the heat of battle. That's the best death for a Star Warrior."
If you knew you were going to die in 24 hours, name three things you would do in the time you had left. "Spend time with Gooey and my friends... I don't know about anything else."
What is the one thing for which you would most like to be remembered after your death? "Well, saving the universe would probably be on the top spot haha."
What three words best describe your personality? "Reclusive, impulsive, and op."
What three words would others probably use to describe you? "Heroic, quiet, and friendly."
Gooey: "I'd describe him as Strong, Thoughtful, and Hurt."
If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character? Lunar here, and to answer this question, KIRBY QUIT HATING YOURSELF-
