Sora (R)'s Questionnaire

1. What town or city do you live in? Why do you live there instead of anywhere else? Describe your home.

Link Answered before Sora (R)'s first Contract.

I live in the suburbs of Toronto, been here for a few years now. Small town home in the suburbs, nothing special, you wouldn't even take a second look at it if you passed by. Well you might actually do a double take because of my mother's obsession with decorating, she likes the place to look "homely".

My family moved around a lot when I was younger so I'd rather stay in one place nowadays. That and I think it gives my mom some comfort that I'm still around. She tends to worry about me and my siblings a lot. I don't mind sticking around either. I have my own space with enough room to play games so I'm happy.

2. How do you get your money right now? What do you spend it on?

I make web-comics, I don't think they're the greatest thing but people read em so I can't really complain. I mean, it's not a lot of money, but I also don't need much. The most expensive things I buy are new games to pass the time. My headset is probably the most expensive thing I've bought in a while. I think the last thing before that was my pc. Other than that though I don't spend much. A few pairs of clothes a year, personal food, and helping out with expenses where I can are most of my other spending. 

3. Describe your Ambition. What are you striving for? How far would you go to achieve this? Would you kill for it? How close to death would you come for it?

Combat is something core in most games, you can't really escape it, although you may try. So my goal is pretty simple, I want to try and take Neo-Genis to it's limits. How much power can I lock inside a character before it gives out. If I'm one thing, I'm determined. 

I already got a unique concept for my avatar so now I just need to figure out how to make it stronger. I have to learn the limits of the system.

The important thing is that I prove my power through fair means. If I broke the game to the point that no one can fight me, that's not a challenge. If someone isn't fighting back, that's not a challenge. 

4. What was the most defining event of your life (before signing The Contract), and how did it change you?

Probably the moment I got my webcomic published. I felt so proud, my heart couldn't stop racing. I remember I was talking about it for the rest of the week. My sibling must have been so annoyed at me with how many times I brought it up. Seeing it up and getting read was so relieving.

I remember I said I'd be happy if like 50 people read it, and then it passed 4k and I was losing it. It changed my entire perspective on my work. Made me a lot more confident in my work, made me want to do more.

5. Name and briefly describe three people in your life. One must be the person you are closest to.

There's my mom, lovely woman. She cares about both me and and my siblings so much maybe too much at times. I remember one time my younger brother went out with some friends randomly after they met up during the day and she freaked out when she found out what happened.

Then there's my dad, he's like Vegas Santa Claus. I really good guitar player, even does some shows ever now and then in local restaurants. By far one of my biggest inspirations of who I want to be like. It always feels like I can just sit down and talk with him when I'm feeling down.

Last would be my younger brother. We both annoy the living daylights out of each other but I also would like to think we would do anything for each other. He generally keeps to himself, but he can be social at times to. Plus he generally likes to keep things light which means he's good for a pick me up when needed

6. How was your childhood? Who were your parents? What were they like? Did you attend school? If so, did you fit in? If not, why not?

I was... definitely one of the weird kids in school. Not the weirdest of the weird, more like the "will ask you random unhinged questions" type weird. It's surprising that I made any friends. It's also surprising that I never really got bullied. The one person who I knew who was kind of a bully never came after me. It was to the point that other people wondered how I managed it, and I didn't have an answer for them.

My parents did all they could for me, to the point I could have taken advantage of that. I'm sure they would have given me pretty much anything I asked for within reason... I didn't though, I never really asked them for anything, and when I did I felt bad about it. I never want to be a burden to anyone at the very least I strive to be neutral if not positive effect on those around me.

7. Have you ever been in love? With who? What happened? If not, why not?

Link Answered after Contract 1, Maikendo

I think I thought I was, but I think that's just me getting overly attached. I tend to 'latch on' to people I get along with. And I think sometimes I mistake that attachment for love, but I don't think that's actually love.

I feel like actual love doesn't fade. Actual love... if I may be so bold, 'true' love... that doesn't go away ever. As a result I tend to under sell my feelings and maybe one day that may come back to bite me.

Maybe one day I'll meet someone I do love, and I'll dismiss my feelings. I hope that doesn't happen.
