## Update

Since the last update, Ive been intently constructing the personality. 
I started with a huge list of traits, and then I slowly organized them
by the Big Five Personality Traits, then further organized them into
trait and inverse traits.  I created tables, emotions, linked emotions
with traits, created a table of likes and dislikes, all that good stuff.
I still havent narrated the traits to the tulpa yet (Im actually going
to start that today\!), but something very interesting happened this
morning.  I was sitting in my bed for about an hour thinking about
random stuff, when I decided to start thinking about a name for the
Tulpa.  I was just going around in my head, “Maybe I should call it X,
or Y, or..” Then another thought came in; it was something like, “Dont
forget the name from your story: X."  For the record, the name & story
was the furthest thing on my mind; Ive all but forgotten it.
This thought wasnt like my inner-voice; it felt completely foreign;
Ive had stray thoughts and let my mind wonder before, and Ive even
rationalized things in my head and thought out loud before; but this
felt alien, it didnt feel like it came from my train of thought.
The thing is, if you asked me how many hours in I was, I couldnt really
tell you, because I wasnt even logging the hours.  Everything Ive done
so far (the thinking and writing about the personality).  As it stands,
I still dont have a body, or even a gender in mind for my Tulpa; just
the personality.
I asked Dane (FAQ Man) about it this morning, he called it a "false
vocal session,” where the creators would hear the Tulpa early on, but
then not again until its actually vocal, later in the process. 
Apparently its happened to a few people, including Irish.
Either way, things just got very interesting.
