Q & A AMA - Chase Devineaux

[Chase]

Where did your heart go, if you 'had' it, but don't anymore?

It went somewhere safe, under witness protection. Stop harassing me.

 

[Chase]

What's the first thing you notice about someone when first meeting them?

Whether or not they are armed.

How did your character become interested in Falconry? (Was the story you were telling us in the chat about how you were visiting somewhere and you saw your friend's falcon in or out of character? Now that I think about it?)

OOC: Back in chat, I think we were talking about Oman, where my friend took us out to the desert and showed off a few falcons. That sort of experience happened a few times, also in Qatar and Northern Sahara when I went 'glamping' to test out another friend's new luxury tour.

Chase's love of falconry, according to what I had written for him, started specifically after a case in Yemen (handled by Ashraq Darsha, Mikal's brother). He befriended an Emirati falconer and began training with a passager gyrfalcon he eventually called Phoenix.

As a 'passager', Phoenix was a young bird still in her first year of plumage.

Follow up question: How old were you when Phoenix came in the picture?

OOC: Since RP timelines are relative, Phoenix came into Chase's life approximately 5-6 years ago, making Chase in his early 30s at the time. I want to say 32, sounds about right...

Before I came to this site, my knowledge of "Chase" came from general info on Wikipedia and clips of the old games on YouTube. So I guess my question is: Is Chase's smile really crooked? Or is that your invention? ?

You like the crooked smile?

(Again OOC here)
I don't remember how it first came up, but I didn't give him the smile, someone else mentioned it in a post of their character observing Chase. I thought it was fitting.

A lot of Chase's characteristics came from co-writers. When I wrote in the beginning, I had a habit of describing everything else but the character, so I get by with a little help...

My apologies that it's taken half a year to answer these... don't know what I was doing.



I do not have biological siblings, so I guess I could say they succeeded in no career whatsoever.

I have, however, been unofficially adopted into @Mikal Darsha's family. In which case, I have five brothers and two sisters. They are listed from oldest to youngest along with their current careers as follows:

1. Arshraq Jal Darsha - Sayeret Mat'kal - Special forces, unit commander
2. Naresh Jal Darsha - 35th Paratroopers Brigade - 101st Peten "Cobra" Airborne Battalion
3. Dagan Jal Darsha - Sayeret Yahalom - Combat Engineering, subunit YAEL - counter terror
4. Parveneh Zachariah - Sayeret Yahalom -maritime engineering, subunit YAEL
5. Lochan (Tarek) Jal Darsha - Shayetet 13 (S13) - Naval Commando, The 13th Flotilla
6. Mikal Jal Darsha - 35th Paratrooper Brigade - 101st Peten "Cobra" Airborne Battalion, currently [Redacted]
7. Ahalya Jal Darsha - 35th Paratrooper Brigade - 202nd "Viper" Airborne Battalion - training

Hope this helps add some perspective.

Should've known you're an only child to your biological family...but what about your biological parents do any of them have succeed? Hint: Again don't mention any names you know what I mean.

But I'll bet you know who you were doing.

 

[Chase]

But I'll bet you know who you were doing.

*Squints* Not sure if serious...

Me neither, bud.

When you were a detective did you ever chase anybody with diplomatic immunity?

Do you have a puppy?
