The Most Likely Tag

[image error]

Disclaimer: Utterly and completely stealing this from SM Metzler’s post where I first saw it a couple weeks back.

This is a tag about characters, that I’m applying to my cast from The Order of the Twelve Tribes. (By the way, some of these questions are a bit odd, but I didn’t come up with them, so can’t be held accountable.)

What shall we discover about my fictional darlings? Let’s find out!

Most likely to become a poet: Flynn Driscoll

Definitely Flynn. He’s such a romantic. And he’s well read, so I’m sure he’s familiar with the classic poets.

Most likely to dance in the rain: Emma Novak

She has that carefree, good-natured, take-life-as-it-comes spirit. Plus, she loves to dance. And she’s not the kind to get bothered by her clothes getting wet.

Most likely to get punched in the face: Amelia Coeur D’Alene

For those of you surprised by this one (“Hey, wait, isn’t she an angel?!”), remember that she made some decisions that were extremely unpopular or challenged by several other characters (among them, Emma, Avery, Sophie, and the changelings she was looking after). And since most of the time she’s not a very intimidating angel, a disgruntled mortal or halfbreed probably would give her a smack if the chance presented itself.

(And realistically, she’d accept their reasoning for this action, and just move on.)

Most likely to drop everything and become a sheep herder: Avery McKinnon

This technically did happen! Since she ran off to the fey realm before the age of 18 when life in the “regular” world got to be too much…

Most likely to be found in a library: Pretty much all the Scholars.

Happily so.

Most likely to say “oops” after setting something on fire: Miles Torrington

Poor Miles, the youngest of the Torringtons, who still has such a strong glamour on his halfbreed self, and therefore doesn’t really know how to use his magic yet. I can totally picture this occurring as part of an attempted enchantment gone terribly wrong.

Most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse: Max Brisby

(He looks nothing like Daryl Dixon, by the way. I came up with the character before I was introduced to this everlasting hero.)

Max is a veteran Hunter who comes from a Scholar family. This means he’s adept at using a variety of weapons, hiding from monsters, working long hours, thinking on his feet, finding obscure information, and taking care of minor wounds/injuries with little outside help. He’d absolutely make it to the other side.

Most likely to fake their own death: The Nephilim

That’s because they already have. This is an old trick of the fallen angels, in the hopes of evading detection by the Order or their enemies.

Most likely to die and haunt friends: Sophie Driscoll

Though she wouldn’t do it out of any malice or spite. She’d want to know what was going on with her family and friends, how they were doing, what they were up to. (And if they lost something, the chances are very high she’d retrieve it and put it somewhere they’d be sure to see it. That’s how she rolls.)
