I remember looking at character building prompts that asked questions like "In what situation would your character be compelled to commit murder?", and I think questions like that are a great way to expand on the situations we could potentially put our characters in. But building up to these scenarios can be pretty hard if they seem incredibly unlikely for our characters, or the end result just isn't all that appealing to the RPer. But regardless, feeling out these scenarios can still be a great way to expand on our characters for either Epoch or AU situations.
So here's the game.
One post will ask a character prompt, formatted as a question similar to the thread's title (What Would Prompt Your Characters To Do 'X'?). You can write/build up to the question if you think it'll help the next poster understand the situation.
The next poster will pick one of their characters and optionally answer it ICly or OOCly. Then propose another question for the next poster, and the cycle can happily continue.
Questions can be re-used if you really enjoy them or want certain characters to reply to them.
Potential idea? If you want a specific character to answer something, just tag them in it with the RPers's permission. If they take too long to respond, someone else can answer that question and carry the game on.
Remember that Proboards rules still apply, so there's no reason for questions to go beyond PG-13.
'Kay so I'm not original, and the first question is: What would prompt your character to commit murder?

For Rhafiel, yes. He could and would commit murder if the situation called for it. However, it would have to be the most dire life or death situation in the world to ever make him snap bad enough to kill another human being.
Would you prompt your character to go sky diving? Not with a Pokemon, but out of an actual plane.
