Ratropolis

[Kattius]

People do these on sites where they often only have one character to the name, but I thought it might help here. XD; ‘Cause I’m useless at making friends otherwise, hehe. Well, for my characters, anyway.

Anyway, what basically happens is the person will give a basic summary of their character, and then a list of “categories” that relationships with other characters may be list as. And then they give you a form to fill out and you fill it out, saying why your character would have that relationship with the one that the topic is about… I’ll show you an example via this post, it’s easier. XD

MELISSA LANGLEY
In a nutshell
- Born and raised in Ratropolis.
- Lost her best friend at fourteen to a cat.
- Tough, loyal and sometimes brutally honest.
- Consistent optimistic despite what she’s been through.
- Afraid of the Main Tunnel and deathly afraid of cats.
- Hasn’t been in a relationship (despite the odd couple of crushes she’s had).
- Mechanic and proud of it, people.

FRIENDS
[+]I’ve seen you darling, seen you hanging round town
0-?
You’ve seen Melissa and she’s seen you a couple of times. You haven’t really talked properly, just the odd little word here and there, perhaps an apology for knocking one another, or maybe you’ve only just looked at one another and don’t even know her name. Still, at least you’ve seen her before. Who knows where it could go from here?

[+]And why do we always laugh while we’re in this discussion
0-7
You know Melissa and she knows you. You’re not extremely close, but you’ll take a chance to talk to her now and then, and she’ll talk back, and you’re perfectly comfortable going down to the pub for a drink together. She counts you as a friend and you count her as one too.

[+]’Cause you and me, we’re on the edge of a knife
0-3
You are the thickest of friends, there for one another at all times, and only something devastating could break you apart. Melissa trusts you with everything, and she expects the same back from you, and you’ve had the best times ever. You must have made a good impression on her if you’re this close to her.

ENEMIES
[-]Why don’t you cry about it
0-?
For some reason, you’ve done something to annoy Melissa, or she’s done something to annoy you, and you’re not exactly happy with one another about it. But you haven’t made a move and haven’t gone against her, or her against you yet, so everything’s okay… maybe you can change this?

[-]About as useless as putting the pin back in the grenade
0-7
You’ve lost her favour and you’ve irritated her enough for her to have a dislike for you, or she’s done something that makes you dislike her. You don’t exactly hate one another, but it’s growing, and you definitely don’t want to be around her if you can help it. You can hold a limited conversation with one another, but it’s normally in frosty tones. If you’re at this stage, you probably don’t want to go any further…

[-]Obliterating everything that’s not your friend
0-3
You really hate one another, for whatever reason. You absolutely detest and loathe one another, and can’t stand to be near one another. You’ll go out of your way just to irritate her and she’ll more likely respond. At this stage, you’re most likely to get punched in the face if you meet her after a night at the pub.

ROMANCE
[<3]Something’s going on
0-?
Aw! A crush! Whether or not it’s Melissa’s crush on you or your crush on Melissa, it’s still a crush! She falls kind of easily when she meets the right person, but often gives them the impression that she’s just a good friend. Maybe you’ve seen past that and fallen for her, instead. Or maybe both of you like one another! [Anything beyond this level has to be made clear in roleplays, so if you want to be anything below this bit, you’re going to have to make commitment to roleplays.]

[<3]And only you’ll know if you’ll be together
0-3
Oh, so there are a few of you that want her attention? Or maybe she wants your attention? Whatever the case, you’re very close, but not quite there yet. Maybe a little more, and you’ll be one another? But who knows, maybe she’ll choose somebody else?

[<3]Every night I will be with you
0-1
You and Melissa are together and you’re happy. Maybe you’re the one, or maybe you’re just together for a while, but this is how you are at the moment. Either way, you’re together and you’re happy, and Melissa is delighted. Let’s hope it will last, eh?

[</3]I looked in my rear view and now I don’t see you
0-?
You’ve been there, you’ve done that, and you’ve had the t-shirt. Whatever you and Melissa had going on has been finished for some time now, and you don’t really keep in contact. Maybe it was your decision or hers, but either way, you’re not together and you don’t keep in touch a lot.

OTHER
[~]Life’s an open book
0-?
Anything else that hasn’t been mentioned, any other type of relationship, maybe this is the best place to point it out? If you and Melissa have any other type of relationship going on, it’ll be added here – just make it clear what it is.
