Hey, guys! Would your character be tied to a tree or locked in a box for hours?

Lauren: I’ll take either.

Kaz: Sure, because you’re the escape artist. *Lauren smirks. Kaz sighs.* Is it a box with holes in it? Never mind. I guess I’d rather be tied to a tree.

Judah: I’ll take the box.

Dante: Ugh. I’ll take the tree. It’ll be easier to use my…[Read more]

Also, new question: would your character rather redeem a villain in their story or have the villain suffer a just and wretched end?

Would your character rather fight one person who’d never lost a fight ever, or an entire army?

Judah: Huh. I think I like my chances better with the one person.

Would your character rather die for someone they hate(but is a good person), or have someone that is a bad person/villain die for them in a noble act of sacrifice?

Judah: I guess I’d r…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani Great new question!

If your character could have either a new baby sister or a new baby brother, which would they choose?

Judah: Either.

Dante: A sister.

Frankie: A baby sister.

Jordan: A baby brother.

Kaz: Well, I already have a little brother. I guess it would be interesting to have a baby sister too.

New Question: Would your…[Read more]

Oh, also, New Question: Would your character rather live the same year ten times or live it once and then die?

Would you rather permanently forget your best friend’s face or never be able to see them again?

Judah: I guess I’d go with forgetting his face.

Kaz: I feel like forgetting his face would be extremely disorienting. *runs a hand through his hair and sighs* But I guess that beats the alternative.

Dante: Never be able to see him again.

Travis: being a vigilante. His excuse: supposedly, because cruel people who persecute the weak deserve to be punished. Also, possibly, because a killer in his city is targeting a criminal group that one of his parents started  and he wants to protect his family (I haven’t decided if I’m actually going to go with this part of the plot…).

Dante:…[Read more]

Would you rather have your fiercest foe know all your secrets and weaknesses or have the ones of your best friend exposed to the whole world?

Jordan: I’d rather have my enemy know everything.

Judah: If the secrets part referred just to my personal secrets and not to the secrets I know about other people, then, yeah, I’d rather have my fiercest…[Read more]

Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?

Judah: I’d go back and visit a past version of myself. Then Claudia…

Frankie: Definitely, go back and fix a past mistake. *swallows hard* Definitely.

Kaz: I think…I’d get advice from my future…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani Thank you!

Your characters seem fun too!! I like how you portray them so vividly. 🙂

Hey, everybody! This thread looks awesome!

Okay, so, I’ll talk about my side character, Kaz. He started out as the typical sidekick/best friend character. Then it turned out that he got blackmailed into working for the villain, who killed the hero’s parents. In the end, Kaz decides to take his chances fighting against the villain. I like that he…[Read more]

@emberynus-the-dragonslayer Your characters seem really fun! 🙂

Would your character rather, fall off a cliff (and die), or be brutally murdered in their sleep?

Judah: I feel like the second one seems a lot more likely to happen to me…uh, I guess I’d take the cliff, though.

Lauren: Do I have to fall off the cliff or can I drive off of it in a…[Read more]

Damion: defiant, loyal, fighter who feels like the world owes him

@jane-maree This is a great article with great points! I thought it was cool how you touched on music and visual art as sources of inspiration.

My current writing problem isn’t being creatively dry so much as not actually spending enough time on my story *face palm.* But I have a file on my computer where I store my random story ideas that I…[Read more]

Would your character rather never be able to smile again or be forced to go around laughing like an idiot for the rest of their lives?

Blaze: Hmmm…well, my gut reaction would be to laugh like an idiot, but I guess that would interfere with my listening to music and my trying to look normal for general society and sleeping and my not getting…[Read more]

Question: Would your character rather never be able to smile again or be forced to go around laughing like an idiot for the rest of their lives?

Kaz: I guess I’d go with never smiling -the laughing like an idiot forever thing would be, well, embarrassing and awkward and, in my town, probably get me killed.

Judah: Yeah, I guess I’d agree with…[Read more]

Nathan: a charismatic, unforgiving criminal compelled by pride and a fear of loneliness.

Would your character rather lose the one person most important to them or lose everyone else they love?

Lauren:*after a long pause* I guess I’d rather lose the one person who’s most important to me.

Dante: I guess, uh, depending on who it is…I’d rather lose everyone else. *Very quietly:* It’s not like I could enjoy them much if I was dead…[Read more]

Elias: underestimated student turned vengeful assassin.

Dante: tricks and risks, shiny shoes and games

Frankie: tragedies, conflict, truth-seeker

Travis: snarky vigilante and wildcard

Kaz: magician, nerd, and coward turned hero

Blaze: angsty, dramatic music geek

Would you rather die slowly of an incurable disease or be ripped apart by a savage beast?

Kaz: Seriously? Those are my options?!

Judah: I guess it would depend on the disease and the beast…I guess I’d probably go with the beast.

Lauren: Beast.

Jordan: I’d go with the beast. Then I don’t have to worry about infecting anyone else. I’d hate to…[Read more]
