The "Find a Buddy" board is co-sponsoring a contest with the Lit Board which will not only give you a chance to win an awesome writing contest, but also find out some information about your fellow members!

Yup, yet another Lit board contest. Co-sponsored by the Buddy Board, this contest is a perfect way to get to know your fellow members! Plus... I figured it was about time.
Right, this one's a bit... different. Anyone can tell you that the greatest honor or curse a writer can give you is to base a character off you. So that's what we're going to do.
We're going to develop 'character sketches' of our fellow SSDians.
Here's how you participate:
First, you PM the person you want to use. If they agree, both of you need to PM me, the subject giving their okay, and you signing up.
After that, post your sketch, using the following format. This will require working with your subject closely. If they are uncomfortable giving out specific information, make it up for them. Artistic license. ^-^
Sketch Format:
Name: Their name.
Age: Their age.
Gender: Their gender.
Belief System/Religion: What/how/if they worship.
Backstory: A basic introduction to their life. A prologue, if you will.
Sexuality: Their sexuality.
Relationship Status: Single, married, dating, or other?
Basic Philosophy: The core set of beliefs they live by.
Example Dialogue: A sample dialogue, including them, with any other person/character you choose.
Here's the code for that:
Remember, the point of this contest is not to shock/offend/hurt anyone. It's just a writing exercise with a fun twist.
You may enter more than one sketch. Post all of the sketches you do below. If I don't have the correct PMs for a sketch, it will be removed.
