I meant to write over the weekend. I really did. But instead I was sidetracked by my own peculiar version of cat-vacuuming, which means y'all have a new random generator to play with.

I present to you The Character Etch-A-Sketch.

Why did I feel the need to make a random description generator? Well, basically:

a) I was tired of all my minor characters showing up with a description of "sort of medium-ish with brown hair", and

b) I grew up in a little town populated almost entirely by Scotch, Irish, and German settlers who'd been inbreeding like crazy for a century or two, which means despite my travels I have trouble coming up with a variety of physical appearances, and

c) No one can scour the feline quite as thoroughly as I can.

I hope it's of use to someone but me. Feel free to comment on it in this thread.

Cool. Mary Sue test is awesome too. I've got a bit of work to do with my fanfic character, Evangeline. She's the daughter of the Phantom of the Opera. I'm working on it! Thanks!
