How does your character feel about being in Taxon --
1) In general, do they like it here?


How would you like it surrounded by insects and curs? :P

No, Nuada is not a happy camper - even if he did relish the opportunity to fight a demon. Boy did that come back to bite him IN THE ARM. Ahem. He is currently focusing on simply healing, but even now he's ridiculously bored.

So bored he's gonna up and teach people proper fighting skills. Mhmm. Try saying no to him, I dare ya.

2) Do they want to stay here? Do they want to leave? Do they have mixed feelings? Do they not much care either way?

Well... Nuada was on a mission when he was snatched away. A Very Important Mission to save the planet. He's the lone crusader defending Mother Earth - and instead of doing that by eradicating the human race he's stuck here playing nice with a bunch of ingrates and ignoramus-es-in-plural-how-do-you-even. So, no. He'd rather not be here at all.

3) Is there any reason they might want to stay in Taxon? Is there any reason they might not want to go home to their own reality? Is there anything or anyone they would miss from Taxon that might make them hesitant to leave if they had the chance?

Not at present, no.

4) Does it bother them that Taxon isn't like their home reality?

Not...bother. Nuada doesn't care enough that he would be bothered, as such. He gets frustrated that he's cut off from home. He finds the safeguards set in place, like the invisible barriers and such incredibly annoying, but they don't bother him, if that makes sense. He tested them, he got a result, and that's that. I think on one level, he's exceedingly clinical about Taxon as a whole. On another level, I would just like to paraphrase BBC!Sherlock:

BOOOOOOOOORED!!!!!!!!!!

5) Is there anything or anyone they particularly miss from their home reality? (Is it pizza? Be honest, admit it, it's probably pizza. Just kidding.)

He misses Mr Wink. There's no denying that that ugly-dorable troll was his de facto family for aeons. Losing him isn't something he'll get over anytime soon. The same goes for his father, even if he killed him with his own hands Because He Had to Do It.

His sister. He feels hollowed out without her.

6) Do they wish Taxon had more fully sentient citizens? Does it particularly bother them that there aren't many people to talk to? Are they lonely or lacking the ability to socialize with large numbers of people, or is this something that doesn't much impact their life/happiness? Or do they prefer it this way?

Would fully sentient Extras make a difference? Not really. Depending on the day, he either considers them to be vermin, or a frog leap above the human race. They're polite, they do their job, and they're not corrupting the environment. Can't say that for most of the 'real' people around.

Nuada can socialize - but not in a cozy schmoozy elbow-rubbing way. XD

7) Do they like living in this particular environment (climate/urbanity-wise)? Would they be happier if Taxon looked/felt like someplace else, or does this not much matter to them?

Again - Nuada can't really be bovvered. He's got the forest, and the sewers, and he's got his mostly abandoned industrial building with floor-to-ceiling windows. It'll do.

8) How do they feel about the Taxonian economy? Do they enjoy the financial security of Taxon's job/income system? Do they dislike the limitations of the sorts of jobs they are forced to take and/or the boredom inherent in doing them, or do they not much mind?

Money is a man-made concept (which may or may not have been influenced by goblins, but mum's the word). He doesn't care for it, other than as a trick and a lure for greedy humans.

9) Are they interested in solving The Mystery of Taxon? Are they only interested if they need to solve it in order to escape? Or do they not particularly care what the fuck Taxon is? Do they think there's any point in trying to solve it, or trying to escape?

Nope. Nuada doesn't particularly care. At all. But long-term, he just might start. We shall see.

10) What's their current guess/theory about what Taxon is?

A fish bowl. Read: not bovvered.
