What would their Skype/messenger name be?

What kind of car would they drive?

What state/country would they live in (this is if there was no magical world and they were just normal people)

What would they do for a living?

WTF are you talking about, my character -is- real.

She doesn't use Skype, she doesn't know what it is. She does have a cell phone though, for use in her internship. She's learned the value of "texting."

She doesn't have a Facebook account, that's still too muggle for her.

She doesn't have a car, but she's considering getting a motorcycle.

She lives in Scotland, but has places to go in England, France and Jordan.

She's currently working as a student, and considering options for a career.

If that's how we're doing it, fair enough.
  • Drogo has a Twitter (but I forgot his name, something like KingGryffindor).
  • He doesn't care much for cars, but uses a bicycle and the Tube to get around (bus on occasion).
  • He lives in London and would never consider permanently moving away.
  • He doesn't have a job, and has serious doubts that he would ever be able to hold down a real one for very long.

Naw, I just couldn't separate Liss from her Hogwarts reality. She wouldn't be Liss any more if I did. It's too much a part of the character.

Hahah, Calan! Do it for meeeee!

Also: I need to find that thread where we (us in general) were talking about thought forms and that experiment where these kids took a glass of water and made a character for it and a little organism grew. Then we said RT's baby was going to be Joki.

...

Anyway, yes! Let's find that thread. Little WoHPs running around somewhere. <_<

Sam's in my head the most right now, so I'll do him, if he never got his hogwarts letter:

What would their Skype/messenger name be? I don't know, Sam's waffling. He'd be horribly indecisive about this, and would likely end up changing it a bunch of times.

What kind of car would they drive? He wouldn't drive, he prefers public transport.

What state/country would they live in (this is if there was no magical world and they were just normal people) Scotland, preferably a larger city rather than a suburb or rural area.

What would they do for a living? Something where he could either work from home or travel around a lot(not necessarily traveling internationally, but more not just going to the same office every day).

How good are they at making actual decisions about anything? NOT VERY GOOD, APPARENTLY! :evil:

Wow, it doesn't seem like very many characters (if they were real) wouldn't drive a car. For me, it would be the following:

Wesley Cross

Skype Name: FrankenFate

Car: Shelby Mustang GT500

State/Country: Tokyo, Japan

Doing for a living: He would most likely work on cars, customizing and tuning, and welding, building things out of metal.

It's more common to not drive a car outside of the US, in places where there's actually functioning public transport. A lot of my friends from the UK can't drive, and don't want to.

Especially in a city like Tokyo. Probably nearly as bad as Manhattan as far as getting around in a car goes.

If you live in London, you don't need to drive, you can get mostly anwhere on the tube and after that closes, there's regular-ish (k)night buses.

If Jenny were real:

She most likely wouldn't have skype. If she did her name would something boring like Jen or Jenny Harper.

She probably wouldn't drive, although if she did it would be something like a Ford Fiesta.

She'd live in Kent until she had saved up enough to move to somewhere else (probably Essex or Suffolk).

Occupation: She would end up unemployed on benefits but then take adult learning courses, she would then either become either a nurse or a Personal Assistant.

Edit: Coincidentally, I was applying for a job recently and it asked for your skype name, which was slightly awkward as my Skype name is slightly, er, embarrassing. I ignored that question and pretended I didn't have it lol.

Reviving this topic!

Character: Amelie Le'rouche
Skype name: amelie.lerouche
Car: She's just too mainstream to drive.
Location: Bordeaux, France
Occupation: Modelling
How she'd deal with RL situations: She'd be useless at it and probably run away from her problems.
