WRITING A PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY OPTION 2
As an alternative to writing the four+ paragraph wall-of-text personality on your application, you may select five or more questions off the list below to answer in the app's Personality section. Responses should be at least two sentences, up to two paragraphs max—no one word responses, please. You must answer the first three bolded questions, and may select two or more off the list from there. Whatever is most interesting for you to answer/most relevant to your character.
- What would others say is their most prominent personality trait — what's the first thing people notice about them?
- How would this character describe themself? What do they think are their best and worst qualities?
- What drives them to action? Doing good? Getting rich? Receiving praise?
- How ambitious are they? What are their short term and long term goals?
- What is their sense of humor like? Are they chronically unserious? How's their comedic timing? Do they hate potty humor?
- Is the glass half empty, half full, or something else?
- How does this character handle tense social situations like arguments/fights?
- What is this character's greatest fear?
- How social are they and, introvert or extrovert, what sorts of people do they gravitate toward?
- How do they adapt (or fail to adapt) to change?
- What are their opinions on rules? How do they interact with authority figures?
- What sense do they most rely on?
- Do they have any pet peeves?
- How sensitive are they?
- How does this character handle group project assignments in class?
- What is this character’s relationship with magic and the world of witches and wizards? Are they highly reliant upon magic? Are they a particularly inept spellcaster? Do muggle things seem alien?
- If they're Muggleborn, how have they adapted to life as a witch or wizard?
