Advertisement
Welcome Back! I hope you enjoyed the last two tours, and if not, there's always that little comment box right there *wink* *wink*.
The best way to create a character, is to get to know your character. No worries, here's a little list on what to fill out:
Full Name:
Age:
Gender:
Birthdate:
Height:
Weight:
Eye Color:
Hair Color:
Likes:
Dislikes:
Crushes:
Siblings:
Occupation {Job}:
Greatest Fear:
Character Traits:
Additional Notes:
I think you get the picture, which, if you hadn't noticed, is to write as much as you can about the character.
AND, if you think that isn't enough, then try asking yourself questions about this character(s).
Wait..
What..?
You want...
What..?
Repeat that again.
OH! Examples! You want examples, okay fine, here:
Is your character rich or poor?
Does this character have a favorite food? If so list them/it.
Does this character have any enemies? Friends? Bestfriends?

The Dragon Wakes
The world was never the same after Worldbreak. None of the world's best prophets, fortune-tellers, or soothsayers had ever predicted its coming, but no amount of forewarning could have helped. Monsters from far below the Earth's surface burrowed through the ground, killing everyone in their path. The militaries of the world, united in cause, could only hold on for a time. With the UN sputtering its last, dying breath, hope came in the form of a man appearing from a nuclear explosion. From a world of sorcery, his knowledge could have been the exact thing humanity needed. But his magic simply wasn't enough. Florian Cale didn't care. Anything that could see him reunited with his family half a world away was a chance he'd stake everything on. He'd learn magic, and he'd learn it well. Or else... he'd die trying. But really, weren't they all doomed anyway?
