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?
