Martel - Martel was based off of another character [also by the name of Martel, because I adore the name and couldn't bother to change it], and I picked the Chimaera because her myth is my favourite Greek myth ever, and because I thought it was funny to write two chimeras who were both named Martel. Of course, it stopped being funny and started being confusing real fast, because I'm stupid. :| Martel is not so much like me--in that she's not like me at all, and I think our only similarity is that we're both rather rough-and-tumble [except she screams less when confronted with dresses and the colour pink], and that we're both pretty unbearably asexual. Usually, we're thinking completely opposite things, and her reactions are... well they're not ones that I would pick, we can say that.
Kumiho - I didn't originally intend to pick Kumi. It just kind of... happened. Accidentally. My friend was planning on apping a certain character, and had stumbled across the Kumiho while doing research, and mentioned her to me briefly--after which, I just got this persistent character voice in my head that wouldn't go away, for weeks, and whenever I tried to give it an identity, the Kumiho came to mind. Eventually I stopped resisting and started developing her, and here we are.
Being that Kumiho is an evil crazy bitch spirit who is out to fuck over the world, I don't think we're much alike. It's painful to write some of the things she says, because she delights in being offensive, and I don't, really. Most of the time she finds insult in things I've no problem with, and her opinions on the world in general are vastly different than mine. The fact that she has to seduce and eat men to stay alive, and that I'm pretty gay [and pretty asexual] also makes quite the difference.
Kumiho is actually very hard to play, because of how ridiculously secretive she is. Obsessively so. As someone who has no qualms about giving her opinion, and expressing her feelings, it's hard to remind myself that Kumiho doesn't usually reveal what she thinks, and most of the time what she says are lies, or things meant to be misleading [and offensive]. She very rarely gives her real opinion on anything. Beyond that, she layers herself with different personalities, whereas I prefer to be rather upfront with myself. Kumi's probably the closest I've come to actually playing my opposite, which I don't think I've ever done, so it's... interesting, but challenging.
/tl;dr's the fuck out of your meme, how do you like that?
