[font=trebuchet ms]I'll give y'all a 4-for-4
Papercutter
-He was born deaf in his right ear
-He loved EDM/electronic rock music
-I literally made up his name on a whim, aiming for something that sounded laughably edgy
-he could not hold his alcohol at all, and after the incident with Pincher’s boy band he avoided it for the rest of his life
Darksouls
-without getting too spoiler-y, he was heavily inspired by Hollow Knight
-he has a minor fascination with yo-yos, after having made his charm bracelet out of a broken yo-yo string
-he’s not a huge music listener but if he was, he’d be a classical fan all the way
-as he faded into obscurity (whether he officially left, disappeared, or just stayed and kept out of the spotlight is open to interpretation), his loyal pet duck Inkquill followed him, and will continue to follow him so long as they both live
Straw
-She's loosely based off of Madeline, the protagonist of Celeste, with some inspiration also taken from Hollow Knight (mainly the mask) and other indie games
-"Straw" is short for "Strawberry"; I had intended to choose an additional suffix at some point, but never got around to it
-sub-fact: with this, I inadvertently predicted the reveal in Celeste's Chapter 9 DLC that Madeline had received the nickname "Strawberry"
-Most of her family members and friends have names based off of fruits in some way- Lychee, Quince, etc.
-her favorite music genres would probably be lofi hip hop and smooth jazz
Warringkingdoms
-Her birthday, May 11th, was chosen based on the original release date of the Touhou spinoff game Danmaku Amanojaku: Impossible Spell Card (May 11th, 2014)
-I had the name “Warringkingdoms” in the back of my mind well before I first brought her to BoB- I ended up giving her the name to distance her from her past
-She’s the journaling type to an excessive degree; she wrote multiple notebooks chronicling the vast majority of Monolith City’s history (though sadly they were all destroyed), and has some records of the Ascendants’ and Elysium’s histories as well
-worth noting: she never mentions herself in any records she keeps
-she has a complicated history with pop punk, punk rock, and emo music, as most of the people in Monolith City (and some Ascendants members, particularly Suiteheart) were hardcore fans of the genres; hearing it brings back positive memories for her, but thinking of those positive memories tends to lead her back to negative memories of how it all ended badly
