HANDWAVED CR MEME

Back by popular demand: handwaved CR! What is your character up to outside of the horrors? How do they persist? Use this form to brainstorm how you're characters have been vibing on the day-to-day!
There are some suggested questions, answer as many or as few as you'd like:
- What do they usually wear? Western or renaissance fair? Lots of fringe or puffy pants? All black or all sequined?
- Where they hang out: Are they a parlor guy or a diner girlie? What gendered changing room do they gravitate toward at the baths?
- Activities they often do: Do they wake at the crack of dawn to do a cute little run? Do they prefer to inventory the general store on the daily?
- What they're like at mealtimes: Can you talk to them before they've had their coffee? Do they make horrific food based choices?
- Does your character read the books? Which ones? Do they share the books? Self-help, or romance? Do they dogear the sex parts?
- What do they do at night? Do they all hang out in the parlor? Do their drink the night away? Do they lurk in the shadows?
- Is there anything unusual about them? Do they sleep somewhere other than the Staywell? Do they have a particular scent or appearance that might be off-putting? Are they just way too friendly?
- What their current vibe is: Are they happy? Sad? Are you tormenting them with an awful, drawn out character arc?
- What CR are you interested in: Low-key pals? Sparring buddies? Do they have a passive aggressive post-it based relationship?

What do they usually wear? Alec typically was wearing a black and white wardrobe of Fancy Little Lad outfits largely in the medieval style, but has switched to a more subdued (but still monochrome) and casual style after the events at the end of February: loose tunics, soft leggings, big coats, and knee high boots.
Where they hang out: He used to be a regular at the tavern, taking up a booth with himself and his art supplies, but he's only there lately to pick up food. He can otherwise be found in his room, rarely in the Games Club room, and strives to not be found in the woods.
Activities they often do: Evidence of Alec's previous prolific graffiti dots the town: little acts of sketched vandalism on portraits and arcs of spray paint on walls. In March, most of his activity is staying out of sight and out of mind, with occasional solo forays into the maze and graveyard.
What they're like at mealtimes: Barely seen. Even before becoming a ghost, Alec ate at irregular times and intervals, picked at his food, and abandoned most of it when he'd wander off. When he was around to be sat down with, he was generally pretty annoying to share space with.
Does your character read the books? Which ones? Do they share the books? Alec has paged through a few of the smuttier books and found them enormously boring, leaving them on the shelves for others.
What do they do at night? Night is when Alec is most likely to slip out of his room to collect supplies, putting him in the tavern or down by the tea station in the lobby for brief periods. He generally stays up and sleeps in late.
Is there anything unusual about them? Alec rarely emotes with his face when he's not thinking about going out of his way to do it, so most casual encounters start with him blank faced and distant looking. He always seems to have a slightly 'off' quality in social interactions. Weirdly pale blue eyes. Has a body hijacking and control power that recently ran amok over the acid cistern and hotel lobby. Is sort of possessed by an eldritch alien that gives him said power.
What their current vibe is: Skulking and quiet. Alec veers between seeming completely out of it and weirdly focused, depending on the moment, and is much more withdrawn than usual.
What CR are you interested in: Given Alec's recent disastrous attempt to boost his powers and claw out of the town, I'm up for him to face some more friction from people! His metaphorical mask over being a weird, disturbing little creature with a history of supervillainy is askew and basically falling off, and he's not really trying to hide it as much as he used to be.
Anything else?
