Apologies for posting two posts in such quick succession, but anyway, here we go.

So, how this happened is the following: Thanksgiving Break happened to fall between the time I let Willis know I wanted to recruit him and the time he actually joined. His family went on a camping trip during that time, and so he (being unable to fall asleep in vehicles) texted me on the first Friday evening that he was tired and bored and wanted something to do. I had the genius idea of this activity to help him feel a bit less scared of posting to the "big scary Board": I'd describe to him what various other Boarders were like and he'd attempt to guess what they looked like. Sort of like the inverse of those reaction videos on YouTube where the kid shows their relative the characters from their favorite fandom and the relative has to describe their personalities.
Because of Willis being tired and because of the inherent lack of correlation between appearance and personality in the real world, the results were humorous. Here they are, in picture format:

For those who can't see the image or were wondering what the original descriptions were, here they are:
Huinesoron: "Blazer and a thin mustache and soul patch. Fairly short styled back brown hair and blue dress pants with a plain colored shirt under the blazer."
Neshomeh: "She has glasses, hair loose in the front but In a bun in the back, stripe sweater, and a deathly Hallows necklace"
Thoth: "a little pudgy, with nerdy t shirts, medium length hair, wears jeans and old sneakers. trying and failing to grow a beard"
Delta Juliette: "pasty, skinny, long hair in a braid, stripe shirts, jeans, several bracelets"
Snowblaze: "pale skin and hair, green eyes, black jeans, longish hair"
Kaitlyn: "wears sweater with designs, glasses, blonde shoulder length hair, skirt"
Four Moons Watching: "shirt with sans on it, ripped jeans, medium length hair held back by a rainbow on it, and colorful shoes"
Iximaz: "faded jeans, pastel colored shirts, fingerless gloves, sports sunglasses"
Doctorlit: "wears dress shirt, loose6 tie, gray dress pants, short combed back hair, clean shaven"
And finally ("This is where I got lazy." -Willis):
Snowy: *He sent me a picture of the time our crazy IRL friend, who may or may not be joining soon, put makeup on him. I've given up on trying to extract any meaning from that.*
Cringe-Factoryy: *He sent me a picture of me. That can only mean one thing: I was projecting a bit in my description. Whoops.* "you but shorter and less beautiful"
61516: "like me but better dressed and with better posture"

Now it's your turn!
- Who do you think Willis guessed most accurately? Who was his least accurate guess? (My personal votes are Thoth or Ix and Moon Moon, respectively.)
- To those depicted, how did you react to these guesses?
- Finally, based on what you know about him so far, what would you guess Willis looks like? If you missed the two times I described myself, what would you guess I look like? (Don't cheat by finding those descriptions!)
Reply to this post with your votes, reactions, and guesses (preferably in picture format - use an avatar maker if you can't draw). Have fun!
