Not to be confused with my OC question of the day or Papes' OC question of the day! Or my other Shindan thread!
Running an OC question of the day thread is rough because you always want to answer your own questions, but by the time you have the time it's been a week and you have a bunch of other questions! Not to mention that your questions always have to be pretty general: "what's your OCs' favorite colors" is easy enough for someone with 10 OCs, but there are loads of people who have OCs in the triple digits and beyond!
But y'know what's awesome? Shindan is awesome. I spent last night working on a bunch of options and whipped up a Shindan that will ask you a question to a specific OC every day!

Here's how it works! You plug in your username, and you'll be given an OC and a question! Here's an example of what the results look like:
Hey there, Toyhouse! This question is for your OC with the biggest family.
Q: How easily are they embarrassed?
You can answer your questions privately, on an OC blog, wherever you'd like! It'd be rad if you posted your results here, though, so we can all learn about your OCs! Some other notes:

Hey there, Sashka! This question is for your OC who's the most nonchalant in extreme situations.
Q: Are they a sore loser or a graceful loser?
Won't answer IC this time because he's not going to admit it...ever.
He's a really terrible sore loser who tries to pose as a graceful loser...but don't trust him. He's definitely going to get you back one way or other...and none of the method he chooses is going to be 'pretty'. All will result in his target being obliterated off the face of the earth...
Hey there, Sashka! This question is for your OC who likes spring the most.
Q: How do they feel about people who are their opposite?
"Being Slavic God of spring, fertility and vegetation...I guess I won't need to explain why I love spring, is that correct?"
"As for people who are considered my opposite...supposedly my wife qualified as one, too. And then there are gods of winter and plague and...all those stuffs that cause difficulties to humans' life from other beliefs. I don't necessarily view them as my opponent of some kind, more like, I respect them and we are just doing our own job in different aspects concerning humans. While I like to see humans happy and enjoy a good life, throwing some difficulty toward them so they learn to be strong isn't something too horrible. As long as those deities whose responsibilities lie in that aspect don't overdo it because of their own ego or any other suspicious drive. My own father is the God of Underworld and i assure you he's not a terrible person like his title would lead you to believe."
This question is for your OC who's been to the most worlds and/or universes.
Q: How complicated do they make their passwords?
Amos can travel between universes easily, but he finds it tiresome and tends to sick in the same place for as long as he can.
One of the benefits to being an all powerful deity-like being is a great memory. If you can perfectly remember details for thousands of years why wouldn't you make your email password a 27 character string of random numbers, letters and symbols?
Hey there, Sashka! This question is for your most relaxed OC.
Q: How organized are they?
"Would 'normal' sustain for an answer? I don't think I'm particularly a messy or very organized kind of person. However...uh, I think my older brother Boryushka somehow influences me to increasingly become more and more organized because he's really strict."
Hey there, wings! This question is for your OC who turns up the volume on their music highest.
Q: If they get caught doing something bad or just that they weren't supposed to do, how do they respond?
newk freezes for a second, then usually just fucking runs lmao
Hey there, wings! This question is for your OC who's neutral in all things.
Q: How do they feel about formalwear? Do they like it or hate being stuck in it?
well,, theyre neutral about it lmao but they prefer casual wear by a bit
Hey there, Сашка! This question is for your OC who's the best at strategy.
Q: What are their sleeping habits like? When do they sleep? Where do they sleep?
(((Man, it was almost a tie between Kolya or Mitya, I chose Mitya because he doesn't appear here longer. Besides, the fact he runs on nuclear energy is more interesting answer-wise)))
"I don't sleep, PERIOD." *poked by a ten meters stick to elaborate the answer*
"Alright, I'll take a pity on your ignorance. As I am an android who is powered by a nuclear reactor, unlike those fleet mates who are conventional power androids operating on fuel, I can stay awake and operate 24/7 for a really long time without having to rest, aka shutting down my system to cool down. There were times when a patrol duty required me to operate for three months straight from leaving the base until returning to the base once again. And of course, I had to stay awake and alert underwater all the time. Another benefit of using nuclear energy is how I only need to change the fuel rods once every five years or so, thus I don't have to worry about shutting down my system, which is similar to human's 'sleep', just to conserve my energy. It should be enough for question #1.
Questions #2 and #3, I only rarely 'sleep' at the base I was assigned to when I have no mission or at shipyard during repair/modernization. For the first circumstance at the base, yes, they have accommodation which is a basic flat for us androids, too. Therefore in the base I did sleep on bed like ordinary humans. However, in the second situation at the shipyard during modernization, they will put me on a special platform that will allow them to do their job easier before deactivating my system."
Hey there, Сашка! This question is for your OC with the most bad habits.
Q: What's their favorite kind of furniture to sit on?
"I'm not picky to be honest. Normally I usually sit on bare cement floor, so often I'm grateful that I'm an android or else, according to Slavic belief, I'd have been infertile longgggggggggggggggg ago. So yep, I appreciate anything I can sit on, as long as they're not like, electric chair...or some medieval torture equipment. Generally not the strange stuff ordinary humans wouldn't sit on. Oh and by the way! I really want to try one of those ejection seats they use in the air force! That should be fun, right?"
Here we are, woo! Will come tomorrow :3c
Hey there, Japo! This question is for your most cutesy OC.
Q: Do they tend to blame themself for things? Do they quickly blame others? Do they not place blame so easily?
Oh, musuku usually blame others a lot, she is kiiinda evading responsabilities the best (she do it all the time) so everytimes she goes into a fight or a discussion or she is accused about something she will deny it with all her soul AND will blame others so she can run away the best she can. But she doesnt regret it, lol
Hey there, Сашка! This question is for your OC who leaves the biggest tips.
Q: How do they respond when someone's clearly trying to provoke them into a fight, either physical or verbal?
"Nothing, I'll merely ignore them. This type of fools is not worth wasting time with. Only low level henchmen with pitiful level of intelligence will resort to this 'barking' method. The truly dangerous ones will keep their position concealed and only strike when they clearly know their movement will yield the desirable result in the most effective way."
Hey there, hedgemaze! This question is for your OC who's killed the most.
Q: Do they like spending money or do they feel guilty about it?
"ASTROBOT LOVE SHOPPING AT MALL!!!!!!!!! ASTROBOT LOVE BARGAIN!!!!!!! IS UNFORTUNATE CLERK OFTEN RUN AWAY SCREAMING INSTEAD OF TAKE ASTROBOT PAYMENT INFORMATION BUT WORKS FOR ASTROBOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
