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, TenMomentsTill! This question is for your OC with the whitest color scheme.
Q: Do they gloat when they win or are they a graceful winner?
He has no grace in winning. Its a safe bet that he'll rub his victory in your face and possibly never let you live your failure down. People tend to not invite him to play games and such mostly because of this awful tendency.
Hey there, wings ! This question is for your OC who paints the most.
Q: Do they fear death at all? What's their relationship with their mortality?
"um? who doesn't fear death? i almost died once it was not fun obviously. i fell off a cliff when i was a kid and hit some rocks. now i only have one leg."
Hey there, Lеdоkоl ! This question is for your OC who is the least trusting of authority.
Q: Do they prefer liquid glue or glue sticks?
"Well, isn't this an intriguing question?" *light chuckles* "Glue stick is my preference but sometimes it doesn't do its job well enough. What a shame... so lots of times I toss it into garbage bin and have my underlings redo the work with liquid glue instead."
Hey there, wings! This question is for your OC who's always up for a friendly fight.

"Um... I...I'll just... hand them my wallet and hope they won't hurt me. If I can... I'll ask them to just throw my documents out and they can have all the money."
Hey there, Sky! This question is for your OC who's suffered the most.
Q: How do they deal with the emotions of others?
~~~~~~~
She can be distrusting about whether they are being sincere or not to start with, and may in turn sass them if she thinks they are overreacting, but once she realizes they are being genuine, she will do anything she can to help them feel better due to her own harsh past and not wanting anyone else to suffer like she did.
This question is for your hardest OC to anger.
Q: If they suddenly had an identical clone with all of the same memories, how would they treat them?
A: Probably just talk to them like a twin or a friend. Kayio doesn't get suprised by much so he'd proberbly find it quite enjoyable to talk to someone who understands him the most.
Hey there, Rainbow! This question is for your best dancer.
Q: How much do they care about how others perceive them?
Very much so. Her emotions and motives sway easily due to how people see her, and think of her.
Hey there, Lеdоkоl! This question is for your OC who's lived in the most places.
Q: How do they feel about their birthday? Do they like birthday parties? Cake? Gifts?
(((He has lived in at least four cities - Stavropol, Tula, Moscow and Nizhniy Novgorod)))
"Hm, I guess my birthday now serves as a reminder that I should take a good care of myself? So I'll live long and make sure my wife and daughter will have a happy life. Birthday party is okay, but ever since Inna born, that's the only birthday party I care for..." *doting dad grin*
Hey there, Ледокол ! This question is for your OC with the longest hair.
Q: What Western zodiac sign would they say fits them best? Which one actually fits them best?
"I'm having a really hard time telling which one I am. If it's according to the time of the year I was born... Aquarius? But I feel I can fit into Scorpio and Capricorn, too... maybe even Pisces..."
(OoC - even I, the creator, have a hard time deciding as well. She could fit into any that spans the winter except Sagittarius but my last prediction is that she's likely a Capricorn)
I did 2 of these, IC is the first question.
Hey there, ren! This question is for your OC with the longest hair.
Q: What's their preferred snack for when it's 4 AM and they've lost control over their life?
"Haaaah, a bit of a... personal question. Well uh, whatever will kill me cheer me up the fastest! So probably ice cream... cookie dough flavor is the best! Although I could also go for eating an entire bag of marshmallows."
Hey there, reni! This question is for your OC who's suffered the least.

Hey there, Cocky Bird! This question is for your OC who loves glasses the most.
Q: If they get caught doing something bad or just that they weren't supposed to do, how do they respond?\
"I-I don't care about what humans think is bad. Everything I do is for the good of cats, and I would never do anything to harm them! And if helping them means hurting some silly, smelly humans, then I'll continue no matter what!"
Hey there, Lеdоkоl! This question is for your OC who's the best savory chef.
Q: What is their art style like?
"...You really did read the CORRECT question? Tsk... why ask me about how I draw when there are other branches of arts I do better - be it writing, cooking or even playing violin! Do I even have art style... good Lord. Meh, just chalk it as stick figure and 'general art style of an average three years old'. I haven't drawn anything more than scribble to help tourists with direction for ages and don't plan to change that."
