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, hedgemaze! This question is for your most introverted OC. Q: If someone tried to rob them at gunpoint while they were alone, how would they proceed?
Amber's a tough roller derby/mosh pit girl, but she's not stupid or reckless. If they had a gun, she would give them her money.
Hey there, hedgemaze! This question is for your OC who dwells on the past the most.
Q: How trustworthy are they?
(hey it's Amber again!) Amber's not a liar, but she's secretive. Can you trust her to keep your secrets? Sure. Can you trust her to tell you when something's wrong? Probably not.
Hey there, Сашка! This question is for your OC who's the worst at lying.
Q: What will they probably be like 10 years in their future?
"I..I...er......hopefully, will become...more courageous? And that...I...can finally interact with...the Antey class and...the other fleet mates with more ease? Also...I hope by then...Sashka will stop...eh, how to spell that word? Mono...monopolizing? I mean he so far only keeps me to himself......umm. Lastly, hope...hope I'm going to...become better with words."
Hey there, Starfast! This question is for your OC who thinks putting pineapples on pizza is blasphemy.
Q: How good are they at maintaining eye contact with others?
Generally speaking, he's pretty good at it. He'll usually break eye contact when he gets distracted, but otherwise he's pretty social so stuff like keeping eye contact comes naturally to him.
Hey there, hedgemaze! This question is for your OC who's the most upset about Pluto not being considered a planet anymore.
Q: What's their favorite kind of furniture to sit on?
(lmao zooms in on art from 2006) Izzy has this godawful orange plaid tweed couch missing some of its legs that he dragged to the practice space and likes to lounge on upside-down, though he'll drape himself on anything.
Hey there, wings! This question is for your OC with the pinkest color scheme.

"i think theyre p-unbeatable (ha get it like unbeatable)"
"Hey there, KittyKnight! This question is for your OC who loves sneakers the most."
"Q: What kinds of people do they like to surround themself with?"
Aside from the people in his team, I'd imagine that Ryan like to hang around people who are energetic and determined! It means that Ryan's able to (hopefully) get quite a lot done, whilst have fun at the same time!
Hey there, Сашка! This question is for your most manipulative OC.
Q: How do they feel about sharing?
"It would depend on what is it that I'm asked to share...or is there an order for me to do that. Otherwise, I don't really feel the need to share materials to anyone outside of my own siblings, Stasik and Roska. Only in a really rare case when I somewhat take a liking of someone, for example Tatarstan, that I'd be more voluntarily willing to share non-materialistic possessions with - like knowledge or experiences."
Hey there, hedgemaze! This question is for your OC who loves dresses the most. Q: How are they at work/school? Are they enthusiastic? Do they slack off? Etc.
Ira's a moody bastard who's certainly... a character when he's working in the art studio, intense and eccentric.
Hey there, HEDGEMAZE! This question is for your most stylish OC.
Q: Are they a personal space invader? How do they feel about others invading their personal space?
Jill's all up in everyone's business, and doesn't see anything wrong with it. She probably doesn't mind if other people do it either, unless it's aggressive/gross/etc.
Hey there, wings! This question is for your OC who likes burgers the most.
Q: How long does it take for them to get back to people when they're contacted?
forever. sometimes literally. tawn usually does most of the talking to ppl but if its not 'work' related and you arent already a good friend newk probably wont talk to you lmao
Hey there, Hedgemaze! This question is for the OC who overthinks things the most.
Q: How easily do they trust others?
This boi again. He's not exactly mistrusting... but he very much keeps to his close friends and is protective/defensive of himself and them. It takes a long time for him to trust new people.
Hey there, Rorichi! This question is for your OC who's hurt the most people they love.
Q: What kind of thing would they build out of snow?
Yeah, he's huet them both physically and mentally...
So Rei doesn't like snow and winter in whole, but he finds building snowmen kinda entertaining? So just a simple small snowman with a cute ribbon somewhere on it, pink obviously.
omg this thread is pretty fun! <333
Hey there, Сашка! This question is for the OC you've written the most about.
Q: Would they rather excel in a skill or two or be a jack of all trades?
"Um...I believe...I'm somewhat a mixed of the two? Living for over a thousand years there are skills from activities that I was forced to do in the past that I neither have time or the determination to perfect them yet. However, at the same time there are skills which I have excelled in such shorter period of time because I had to constantly do it for my living or I personally like it. Mechanical skill is certainly one I believe I'm rather capable of...but I can pull the Bayan playing, Barynya dancing, accounting and playing hockey just fine, too."
