  • H-CAT’s Aurora Maylee: An illustrated introduction to holistic character profiles





    Basic Details:


    • Character Name: Aurora Maylee (may be some kind of test to help come up with names)


    • Race: Lycanian Wolf Anthro (I’d like for there to be a multitude of races from tabletop games and other storytelling media or for custom options)


    • Age: 14


    • Birthday: May 4th (possible test for this)


    • Sign: Taurus (birthday and thus this to if a user chooses to)


    • MBTI Type: ENFP (this is based off old H-CAT manual test results but users would be able to input it themselves if they wanted.)


    • Class: Cleric (Healer)


    • Alignment: Neutral (Jungian scenarios would help with this or users would be able to input a manual alignment)


    • Likes: Those who are caring, dresses


    • Dislikes: Meanies, seeing people hurt, upset, or fighting


    Appearance:


    Aurora is defined by her silver eyes and hair that cascades down to her mid-waist. Her wardrobe choices resonate with the frilly Lolita style, bursting with a palette of pastel blues and pinks. The ensemble is accentuated with bows and a pearl bracelet.


    Distinguishing Features:


    • Wolf ears: Silver


    • Bright Aura


    • Skin Complexion: Fair


    • Skin Color: Ivory beige


    • No tattoos or birthmarks


    Abilities and Affinities:


    Central to Aurora’s character is her innate ability to read and manipulate auras. Her deep-seated connection to the “Auric” and spiritual realm underscores her unique talents. Aurora has her distinctive strengths and vulnerabilities.

    HEXACO-W Dimensions: H-CATs own version of HEXACO for storytelling.

    • Extraversion:


    • Agreeableness:


    • Conscientiousness:


    • Openness:


    • Well-being:


    DND Preset Attributes: The character profile is aiming to have multiple presets to use for various tabletop games, genre and other storytelling media. It also aims to be highly customizable so users can streamline the profile to their needs. They’ll be able to roll for stats or use the personality and other tests to calculate their stats. Aiming for more uses than just in tabletop games.

    • Information Processing: Insights into how Aurora assimilates and processes information


    • Decision Making Style: A dive into Aurora’s approach to decisions


    • Moral Alignment: An exploration of Aurora’s moral compass


    This still isn’t everything. I need to add the enneagram and other sections and even other tests and their sections. The aim is for everything to have, presets, unparalleled customization and options for user direct input throughout the entire toolkit.


    Enneagram: H-CATs version of the enneagram through straightforward choices in the test since it’s for storytelling. It would showcase dominant, auxiliary, tertiary, and inferior for motivations, fears, desires, weaknesses and strengths. The aim is to have the info filled in by the test with details input by the user for each dimension of the test.


    Motivations


    Fears


    Desires


    Weaknesses


    Strengths


    I’ve come up with a lot but it’s up to the future community to decide what to keep officially and how to change and adapt things to be as inclusive as possible.





  • H-cat: Comprehensive Character Profiling for Storytellers & Writers

    I have an exciting vision for H-cat, and while many of these features are still on the drawing board, I’m committed to bringing them to life when the time is right.

    Once users log in, I’m aiming to present a customizable dashboard where they can activate or deactivate the sections they’re interested in. Each module will come with a concise description to guide their choice. In addition to a customizable dashboard, H-cat aims to provide a comprehensive character profiling experience for storytellers and writers.

    Understanding that users may want flexibility, I’m planning to add a feature allowing them to save and resume their progress as they see fit.

    My goal is to ensure the H-cat reports are tailored to individual users. The results they receive will be based on the sections they’ve chosen, ensuring relevancy without overwhelming them with unnecessary details.

    One thing I truly believe in is the power of feedback. As I continue to develop H-cat, user feedback is invaluable. Without the insights and suggestions from the community, H-cat won’t reach its full potential. I’ll be integrating a dynamic feedback system to continually refine the tool and address user needs.

    For users who might be unsure about which sections they need, I’m envisioning an “exploratory mode” to give a glimpse into each segment, guiding their journey.

    I’m also contemplating the addition of a dedicated settings area, giving users the reins to adjust preferences, switch modules, and personalize their H-cat experience.

    I recognize the strength of community. To foster this sense of togetherness, I’m pondering over introducing a community forum or support section. This will become a space for users to share, learn, and grow together.

    Lastly, I want to keep users in the loop. I plan to set up notifications and reminders, and as I roll out new features or updates, I’ll ensure they’re informed.

    While there’s still work to be done, with feedback and collaboration, I’m optimistic about the direction H-cat can go. Your voice and insights will be instrumental in shaping its evolution, and I’m genuinely thankful for your contribution to its journey.
