How to Write a Character

↠ Start with the basics, because obviously. Name. Age. Gender. Maybe even a birthday if you’re feeling fancy. This is step one because, well, your character needs to exist before they can be interesting. But nobody cares if they’re 27 or 37 unless it actually matters to the story.

↠ Looks aren’t everything… but also, describe them. Yes, we know their soul is more important than their hair color, but readers still need something to visualize. Do they have the kind of face that makes babies cry? Do they always look like they just rolled out of bed? Give us details, not just “tall with brown hair.

↠ Personality isn’t just “kind but tough.” For the love of storytelling, give them more than two adjectives. Are they kind, or do they just pretend to be because they hate confrontation? Are they actually tough, or are they just too emotionally repressed to cry in public? Dig deeper.

↠ Backstory = Trauma (usually). Something shaped them. Maybe it was a messy divorce, maybe they were the middle child and never got enough attention, or maybe they once got humiliated in a spelling bee and never recovered. Whatever it is, make it matter to who they are today.

↠ Give them a goal. Preferably a messy one. If your character’s only motivation is to “be happy” or “do their best,” they’re boring. They need a real goal, one that conflicts with who they are, what they believe in, or what they think they deserve. Bonus points if it wrecks them emotionally.

↠ Make them suffer. Yes, I said it. A smooth, easy journey is not a story. Give them obstacles. Rip things away from them. Make them work for what they want. Nobody wants to read about a character who just gets everything handed to them (unless it’s satire, then carry on).

↠ Relationships = Depth. Nobody exists in a vacuum. Who do they love? Who annoys the hell out of them? Who do they have that messy, can’t-live-with-you-can’t-live-without-you tension with? People shape us. So, shape your character through the people in their life.

↠ Give them a voice that actually sounds like them. If all your characters talk the same, you’ve got a problem. Some people ramble, some overthink, some are blunt to the point of being offensive. Let their voice show who they are. You should be able to tell who’s talking without dialogue tags.

↠ If they don’t grow, what’s the point? People change. They learn things, make mistakes, get their hearts broken, and (hopefully) become a little wiser. If your character starts and ends the story as the same exact person, you just wasted everyone’s time.

↠ Flaws. Give. Them. Flaws. Nobody likes a perfect character. Give them something to struggle with, maybe they’re selfish, maybe they push people away, maybe they’re addicted to the thrill of self-destruction (fun!). Make them real. Make them human.

↠ Relatability is key. Your character doesn’t have to be likable, but they do have to be understandable. Readers need to get them, even if they don’t agree with them. If your character never struggles, never doubts, and never screws up, I have bad news: they’re not a character, they’re a mannequin.

↠ You’re never actually done. Characters evolve, not just in the story, but as you write them. If something feels off, fix it. If they feel flat, dig deeper. Keep refining, rewriting, and letting them surprise you. That’s how you create someone who feels real.

Now go forth and write characters that actually make people feel something. And if you need a reminder, just ask yourself: Would I care if this person existed in real life? If the answer is meh, start over.

AHHHH ADORABLE

I haven't released the fic yet, but here's another little thing for Senku and the OC I wrote for him

The first time Senku sees her, it's a picture swiped from a picture frame she claims no one will notice missing. It's a group photo, and her letter challenges him to guess which one of the four girls she was.

He picks her out instantly.

He doesn't know too much about her yet at this point, but from what little he does know, he's certain the girl who looks like she sleeps far less than was healthy was his Odie.

When he sends his response, along with a photocopy of the picture with her face circled in bright red marker, he makes the point to tell her that she should take more naps, joking that she looked worse than he did after staying up all night working on his rocket.

Hard to do when there's so much noise in my house.

He doesn't quite understand what that means until a few months later, during one of their first phone calls.

If u want to write a story about a character that's just you but hotter with a dark twisted backstory and magical powers and a pet falcon or something, I think u should just go ahead and do that. Who's gonna stop you? The government?? Fuck the police.

I can't stop thinking about a sea witch, and instead of having a crow as her familiar she insted has a seagull. And she is like an evil witch but she looks like super nice and like calm, and her seagull just looks super silly...

Should I maybe draw her?

autism go Bur-

OK so I told myself I would get more work done and study more of my upcoming tests and only look at the stuff that I already knew I had it only a small hyper fixation on.

(this is only half of the board and MOST of it can’t even fit in the dang frame )

LIKE I HAD A CHOICE IN THE MATTER

so now I’m making Cassie into the amazing digital carnival au by Smbaby!

I’ll put all the stuff together and then post it maybe. but for now my insanity continues down the rabbit hole.

I thought my brain was done with this, but then I decided to look back at the AU and every single amount of serotonin went back into my brain so here I am.

My lore dump for this one is ready!

introducing, Code!

Now it’s nerd timeeee!

Before CD+Story (first picture)

This bad boy has a little more writing so here we go!

There getting two forms one before she slowly lost her sanity and one when the actual story starts!

I made you a middle form depending on, but for now I’ll leave it at this!

This is when She’s first sent into the world after an anger filled accident by the company as they semi-tried to get her out sending in beta version of Caine to keep her company. In the end, even though Caines code wasn’t fully complete and the simulation had a bunch of bugs and glitches still they gave up and sent the first beta testers in anyway thinking Cassie was either dead or lost. This included Kinger and his wife two other game developers, who also worked on the project. Surprisingly they were wrong so about her being dead code basically becoming a human firewall after learning, they could still fix the code even in their state.

Present CD+ More story (second picture)

Story starter!

It’s been a few decades? years? code doesn’t know anymore even though they could check…   but they really don’t want to. They know they had a name, but it means nothing to them anymore, Code is good enough. They don’t know how long they can keep doing this, but the cracks are starting to get to their shoulders and now they’re bleeding even more,  just lovely. They’re keeping the bugs and glitches plus the meddling in the code away the best they can, but a beta tester got through .

 At least it’s only one this time they thought they gave up on this a couple months? Yes months ago, but it looks like they’re trying again.They weren’t expecting another… 

oh well time to greet them. 

Ribbon dancer completed!

Look at my darling!

This is the other thing I'm working on.

This is one of the things I'm working on at the moment.

This is something I'm in the midst of working on.
