Aahh....that makes sense. _________________ It took me about ten minutes to defeat Giga Bowser, Ganondorf, and Mewtwo from Super Smash Brothers Melee using Peach.
How long did it take my brother to defeat those characters using Yoshi? Two minutes.
I like to obsess over stuff. Here are all the things I'm obsessing over:
Song: Seize the Day by Default
Anime: D.Gray Man
Anime character(s): Kanda
Video Game: Super Smash Brothers Brawl
Video Game character: Wolf O-Donnell from Star Fox Assault
OC: Ray Eclrida, copyright of me (duh!)

almost always, and with the main character of a series who's already paired up, right? |

[i]PP: ... Ew...
Personally, if I ever write a fanfic with original characters (Yeah. Me. Write. <_< ), I'd either A) Pair them up with other OCs, assuming there's any pairing up going on or B ) Pick a background character who's either never named or only mentioned as, well, a background character.
On that note, I love Kirishima from the Yu Yu Hakusho comics... :wub:
Much thanks for the commentary on my last post! Meh. I had people tell me he was a Mary Sue/Gary Stu 'cause of how I draw him... That, and they didn't seem to believe that people can have white hair and pink eyes.

It's called 'albinism'. Of course, that also means white/pale skin too.... _________________ Strata here: [url=http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/242293]Nanowrimo[/url] - [url=www.fanart-central.net/user-Stratadrake.php]FAC[/url] - [url=http://stratadrake.deviantart.com]dA[/url] - [url=www.furaffinity.net/user/Stratadrake/]FA[/url]

I am writing a novel(not a fanfiction, I know but I need help making well rounded characters). Its a fantasy novel and I'm having some real trouble making the characters realistic and NOT Mary-Sueish/Gary-Stuish. The three main characters are siblings. Two twin girls and their older brother. I need to think of more character flaws for them that would make them seem like realistic american teenagers. One of the twin girls shows no emotion but anger, the other twin is naive and a total clutz and the older brother hardly ever talks to anyone but his sisters. I need badly to think of more character flaws, so if you can help me out, LET ME KNOW!!!! ^^ Thanksies! |

Try thinking of people you know. They don't have to be drastic issues to make someone "real". A lot of normal people don't have any seriously massive flaws, just a lot of little things. Being allergic to a specific kind of food, afraid of spiders, doesn't like the burnt potato chips, slightly weak ankles, a poochy stomach, hair that won't ever behave, talks too loud, annoyed by the clicking of a pen, afraid of thunder storms, stuff like that. _________________ "I care about people as much as I care about lawn furniture" - Dexter/Michael C.

I have a question: I have three character sketches I'd like to share, and I'd like to know if they're imperfect enough. They're aren't my entire character sketches(It'd be too long) but this the gist of it.
Jamie - Main Character
+Intelligent
+Intuitive
+Practical
+Quiet
+Independent\Unique
-+Honest - Sometimes Brutally
+Artistic
+Serious, But has an inner child
-+ Selfless & Compasssionate - can be overly selfless
?Defensive when showing affection(wasn't sure where to put this.)
?Self-Conscious(same with this)
-Shy
-Indecisive
-Overly Modest
-Secound Guesses Himself and Others
-Sometimes Appears Insensitive
-Cynical
-Easily Frustrated(Beats himself up even with good achievements)
-Hides true emotions(mainly love)
Tenisha - Jamie's Love interest
+Caring
+Confident
+Maternal
+Average Intelligence
+Sweet
+Perky(Occasionally)
+Bashful
+Open-Minded
+Quiet
+Funny
+Friendly
?Flirtatious(did I spell this right?)
?Capable, but a Screw up sometimes(and on purpose)

This one I made on the fly.
