||
Some people have been requesting the ‘snippets’ of my personality thing
|
||
that I’ve sent FAQ Man and posted on the IRC, so I figure I’d post them
|
||
up here (inb4 “your handwriting is terrible, why religious, etc, etc.).
|
||
|
||
Basically, what I did, was go to [This
|
||
Website](http://www.gurusoftware.com/GuruNet/Personal/Factors.htm) and
|
||
start copying every trait I liked into a raw list. I ended up with
|
||
about 75 or so traits.
|
||
|
||
Afterwards, I organized each trait into one of the Big Five Personality
|
||
Factors. Here’s a picture of the completed list (yes, resolution sucks,
|
||
the pic is to show you the structure, not the traits themselves):

|
||
|
||
Next, I went to [This
|
||
Page](http://changingminds.org/explanations/emotions/basic%20emotions.htm)
|
||
and started writing down/organizing every emotion I thought would be
|
||
good to include in the personality; I was left with this:

||

|
||
|
||
And finally, I went over attributes; likes, dislikes, hobbies, topics of
|
||
interest, and tabled them:

|
||
|
||
Now, when I work on personality, I basically sit down in a chair and
|
||
tell the tulpa about itself. I go through trait-by-trait, and
|
||
rationalize the following:
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
In case you can’t see the last two entries, they say: "How would the
|
||
tulpa handle each emotion, based on the trait?" and ”\<\<Go over each
|
||
emotion and apply each trait to it.“
|
||
|
||
The narration is pretty much just free-form through most of it. I’m
|
||
pretty much like, "Since you’re blah and blah blah, you’re often blah.
|
||
This makes you thing that you’re blah, and you handle some situations
|
||
like blahblah.” or “Since you’re imaginative, you enjoy listening to
|
||
classical music. You can close your eyes and picture what’s going on
|
||
during the songs and imagine, etc,” at least until I get to emotions.
|
||
|
||
For each emotion, I try to visualize/feel the entire essence of the
|
||
emotion and the trait simultaneously, then I talk to the tulpa about how
|
||
it handles each emotion based on the trait; if it’s too hard to talk
|
||
about, I just abstractly think about that particular emotion.
|
||
|
||
I probably spend about 20-30 minutes *per trait*. I’m totaling about 60
|
||
traits, I’ve finished with about 9 traits so far.
|
||
|
||
**P.S.**
|
||
|
||
I can provide a more detailed explanation of the process I used/am
|
||
using, with examples, downloadable tables, etc, if anyone wanted them,
|
||
but I’m not sure if I should; mainly because I don’t want to release a
|
||
method that hasn’t been fully tested yet, and I don’t want to lead
|
||
people the wrong way, know what I mean?
