Character Profiling
By Neoshaman with Introduction by Rio
Creating A Character
Creating a character is easy but creating a believable one
who the player can empathize with and relate to is a bit
more complicated. To resolve this, the most obvious answer
is to create a character profile.
Profiles come in handy, allowing you to lay the foundations
of a character with depth that you can easily reference
and guide your story. For example, the character of the
person dictates how he or she will act in certain situations.
There is a Text Document (1KB) and a Word document (23KB) where you can create your character in depth by listing their personality and other attrubutes in detail.
The document includes:
name, gender, race, age, birthday, height, measurement,
beliefs/religion, hobby, basic description, astrological
sign, Chinese zodiac sign, blood type.
Current info: family background, birthplace, home,
history, possessions, pets.
Physical description: hairstyle, body, eyes, physical
condition, marks, clothing
Personality: likes, dislikes, fears, goals, occupation,
hobbies, favorite food, least favorite food, prized possession,
vernacular (way of speaking), character behavior, aptitude,
social and other pressure/problems, relationships, positive
and negative characteristics, personality, other.
Abilities: physical, magical, other.
If your character does not have an attribute in a certain category such as magical, just leave it blank, type "none", or erase it from the profile list. Remember: just because it's listed doesn't mean the person has to have it.
