===Jian=== '''How did your character spend their last thanksgiving?''' - ''In Boston with Al Jolson's family. Trying to understand the odd American tradition. Johnny does like pumpkin pie though!''<br> '''What are your character's living quarters like?''' - ''Hotels, motels etc. Life on the road ain't easy but its better than being leech food. Until yesterday Johnny was residing in the Star Hotel, one floor below the penthouse , but only to avoid vampire suspicion.''<br> '''What are your characters favorite foods and/or treats?''' - ''Food: Dim Sum. but mostly those little steamed dumplings. Snack: Chicken's feet the way Cook used to make.''<br> '''What is the worst thing you did as a child?''' - ''Wu Jian disobeyed the wan kuie.'' (OoC note: Like telling off a cop... if a cop were an immortal undead monster who pulled himself out of hell to re-inhabit his corpse. And, for Johnny specifically, if that cop's beat was just your family and he'd been faithfully serving and protecting for centuries.)<br> '''What kind of posters or paintings do (or did) you have on your walls?''' - <br>''Johnny currently has no actual valuable stuff or any treasured items. However...'' <br>''Harvard Dorm room: An original sketch of him and Michelle by Sarah, a rather tatty Firefly poster with Wash's "Watch how I soar" in Mandarin and English.'' <br>''Hong Kong room: Bare almost spartan, an old triptych panel of Journey to the West, An original peice of Ming Dynasty art depicting a nightingale.''<br> '''Name one person your character deeply respects.''' - ''Master Hong Zhu. Johnny's MA teacher and sometimes mentor. When a mortal can bend steel with his head you tend to be more willing to listen.'' <br> '''How do you feel about your Exaltation? Is it worth the trouble? Are you better than normal people now?''' - ''My Second Breath was the will of Heaven. The Ancestors have chosen me for greatness. This power is worth the pain and sacrifice I have endured. I am a new god, and the people shall bow before me.''<br> '''How does your Exaltation fit into your worldview as more or less rational human being, formerly belonging to a world without magic?''' - ''Magic lies just beneath the world and the sight of the unworthy. If the wan kuie can manipulate Chi so can I.''<br> '''Reality shows! What's your guilty pleasure?''' - ''When his friends could drag him away from his studies long enough Johnny was kinda finding Fear Factor interesting. He is sorry he missed 90% of Survivor China though, he misses home terribly and is not willing to tell anyone that yet.''<br> '''What is your character's favorite book?''' - ''Journey to the West in the original Mandarin and the modern Mandarin.''<br> '''Is there anything that your character runs away from? Can be a phobia, something they find gross, or a situation they can't stand?''' - ''Johnny has fairly low Valor so a fair number of things make him freak. He really can't stand being ignored though. What you grow up with 20 servants waiting on you and see how you like being ignored.''<br> '''If you had a large sum of money to donate to some cause or organisation, what would it be?''' - ''Johnny would prolly donate a chunk to a language school and prolly the ACLU.''<br> '''What is the weirdest thing you ever saw before your Exaltation?''' - ''Vampires. What! Johnnys been living with them around him since age two. Though he has also seen the occasional use of the wan kuie Disciplines.''<br> '''What would be a perfect date for your poor unfortunate PC?''' - ''pre or post America?'' <br>''Pre: Taking random high class chick out to a five star restaurant. Chatting about language and culture. Having her actually understand. Ending with her returning to her parents and Johnny going home.'' <br>''Post: Al and Sarah, Johnny and Michelle. Watching a horror movie, with popcorn and drinks. (Funny how exposure to life makes you really look at your priorities)''<br> '''What was your favorite cartoon as a kid?''' - ''I honestly don't know any Chinese cartoons. Maybe Dragon Ball translated to Chinese. Or possibly an adventure cartoon or two when Johnny could steal a few moments away from his tutors.''<br> '''When was the first time you used your Exalted powers, and what were you doing?''' - ''[http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/Johnny_Wu#History| The bar scene in Johnnys backstory.] He was simply trying to absorb American culture.''<br> '''Ah, delicious fast food. Which's your guilty pleasure? ''' - ''"Have you tried these milkshake things yet? I don't know what's in them. But we do not have them back home. And what are onion rings?"''<br> '''Let's give a wink to ourselves, shall we? What RPG would our character play?''' - ''"A what? Oh, the one with the dice? The gang and I tried that once. I think I was a thief." (a D&D game that lasted one session)''<br> '''If your character hadn't Exalted, what supernatural denizen of the World of Darkness would they most likely be?''' - ''With all the crazy nuttiness in Johnny's life, one of two things. One: Dhampir, similar to his now half dead cousin. Two: some kind of hunter. Prolly focusing on research.''<br> '''What would be the stupidest thing you ever ate?''' - ''Crickets.''<br>
