Ever wandered how to add depth to your characters? Then just ask yourself some questions and answer them so you can create your own characters for any kind of story. Below is just an example of what you could possible do. Thanks squiddooo for the questions (:
- Name? Eimi Souma
- Age? 15
- Approximate height? 5’2″
- Approximate weight? 119 lb
- Hair colour? light honey coloured
- Eye colour? soft brown
- Skin tone? light beige
- Do they speak with an accent? nope
- Where are they from? Okinawa, Japan <3
- Where are they now? Tokyo, Japan
Who are their parents? Mother; Haruna Souma, Father; Ken Souma - What is their earliest memory? Watching her mother leave, and a few minutes later her father’s family picks her up.
- What did they want to be when they grew up? Didn’t care about what would happen later on. Eimi didn’t want to think about it.
- What did/do their parents want them to be? Her father(who dies) wanted his daughter to be happy. Her mother also wanted this but was selfish.
- Do they have siblings? Older or younger? Brothers or sisters? None whatsoever.
- Do they have or have they ever had children? How many? In the future she has three kids!
- Do they or have ever had a significant other? Are they still with them? Why? Why not? When she was younger, and was with the Souma family she meets a boy from a daycare. That boy is her first love who she often bullied! She doesn’t realize that she meets him at her new school.
- What were they doing right before the story starts? ….. don’t get this question lol
- Up until now, what’s the most noteworthy thing they’ve done? To them? To the people around them? She ran away from the Souma family when she was 8 and ventured around for 3 hours before she was caught by her body guards.
- What was their education like? Ever since she was taken to the Souma family she has had a large amount of highly advanced education.
basically thats all you do! So creating a character can be made easier if you find more about them (: Using questions are a very efficient way to find more depth in your character, and it also helps you be more organized and perhaps prepared. Good luck on your stories!
