Character Design

Character Design

It is common for new writers to try and cram their character sheet with pages of details and backstory. With column upon column for trivia, minutiae, and physical statistics. Just like the character sheets of the Writer's personal inspiration.

Writers don't realize that those character sheets are written from the perspective of the audience. An audience who has read the story and compiled these sheets from the details they gleaned from the story they have read.

New Writers should try to make their characters as simple as possible. Heck, leave a few gaps here and there so that they can fill these gaps over the course of the story they write.

Momo plays a Barbarian. Her interactions in game is based off Bakugou whenever he throws a tantrum. D&D allows her to be a 'bad girl' and break stuff.

Mineta is an avid D&D player who specializes in Bards. He introduced Momo to the game. His constantly insane charisma rolls allows him to be a sex-machine during his games.

Sometimes Mineta's filter between reality and D&D blurs, which is why he is constantly harassing the girls around him.

Momo thinks her in-character dialogue as a Barbarian makes her sound like Red Sonja. Everyone else thinks its cute that she's trying.

Mineta is a very respected role-player and is able to help Momo with her roleplaying.

This really works for me as a writer.

i might elaborate later but fanfic replies literally develop writer’s metacognition and make them better writers

Make every R-rated reference something that would have rated R in the 80s. But would only get a Teen rating at most today.

Daphne wearing jeans and everyone just has a fit.

Velma is interested in sex, but she thinks holding hands would be enough to get a girl pregnant.

Make every character overreact to something we would find tame today, and then have the film rated 'R'.

gun to your head, you HAVE to make an R-rated scooby doo movie. What do you do
