Shamelessly using this to actually develop my new character aha

by bear @ cs
Pick a character, tell us their name and gender and/or sex! Their name is Montreal , however they were named after a castle near Jerusalem opposed to the city in Canada. They're often nicknamed Mon, or sometimes Monday because it's cute. Agender they/them or he/him pronouns.
What do they do for a hobby or interest? Montreal enjoys visiting zoos and spends a lot of his time searching for animals which look similar to him, it's an incredibly difficult task [they're basically the only one of their species in the human world], they also enjoy making shapes out of their til tip like balloon animals.
Does this character have a significant moment form their past? Why is it important?Montreal's most significant moment was probably when they learned to paint despite not having pose able thumbs, they get quite caught up in their own head sometimes and painting helps relieve this although they predominantly paint in shades of purple, without painting Montreal wouldn't be nearly as optimistic as he is.
Do they keep in touch with family and/or close friends? Most of Montreal's friends are animals at the zoos they visit [they can communicate with both humans and animals] and so they make time to visit whenever they can, they don't have any blood-related family unfortunately, just the animals they've adopted over the years.
Do they like helping people out? Why? Montreal loves helping people! Especially children who visit the zoo, he loves to impart knowledge and brighten people's days even when he's feeling down himself
Is this character single? What's their orientation? Single and scared to mingle aha, they're Pansexual
How do they feel about relationships?Montreal likes them in theory [the whole idea of being in love and such] but are really not sure how dating even works, so unlikely to ever be in a relationship themselves
How would they cope with the loss of a loved one? Extremely badly, I don't think they'd 'cope' so much as give up on the world entirely
Do they prefer any specific holidays? Montreal doesn't like religious holidays because he's not religious so sees no reason to celebrate them [Easter, Christmas etc.], instead he likes things like Red Nose Day and charity holidays, Jack in the Green is also always fun because it celebrates nature
Do they celebrate any unusual holidays?Only every single silly holiday ever invented, if they're about an animal you can bet Montreal celebrates it, his favourite unusual holiday is Turtle Day and he always goes to the zoo to share turtle facts with the children
@Sebeon - so many winged babies, I'm in awe of them <33
