Tips to Creating Character’s Personalities- Authoring Advice 🏋️‍♂️⛹️‍♂️

Creating various personalities for many characters can be very difficult. Just relax, it doesn’t need to be. Here’s some tips that might help.

Listing Character Traits:

This was actually not helpful for me at ALL, but it may be for you! Take a piece of paper and write down for each character the traits you imagine them having. 

This keeps it organized and is a good start to a character. (Maybe…it wasn’t for me…but whatever! Give it a whirl!)

Character Interviews:

This can be very helpful, even if its just to remind yourself of the characters personality later in the writing process. Act like you’re asking the characters various questions, and based off their pasts and personalities answer the questions. I find it nice to put this on paper.

Name them:

It may seem strange but just giving a name to a character can spark ideas. Names can just sprout personality all on their own. Thats why you may want to name them then give traits.

(But some people title them first then decide on a name depending on the personality of the person.)

Create Their Past:

Like wet cement, experiences shape a person. Not only do YOU need to know (not necessarily your readers) but your character knows. If they don’t have a firm past then a huge chunk of your character is missing. 

(I will eventually post a thing about creating backgrounds and pasts but you can always find another person giving out advice.)

Know their role:

Are they the main character? Comic relief? Best friend? 

You need to know this and consider shaping a person to fit in their role. A comic relief has to be…comical. 

BUT, not every main character is the same nor villain. Consider that.

Character Traits:

Here’s a few traits off the top of my head-

Sarcastic, Dramatic, Bad-Tempered, Shy, Lazy, Extroverted, Introverted, Thoughtful, Rational, Irrational, Insane, Arrogant, and Humble.

Everyone has multiple traits and some have the same but in different ways. 

Two people can be Bad- Tempered but one throughs a tantrum when angry and the other one kills a person. Character traits can be called the same thing but can be two drastic different things. Thats why, when planning a persons personality you should be specific. It wouldn’t hurt to say why and when a person acts that way ethier.

I have more but that seems enough for now! Have a FANTASTIC DAY, and have fun writing!

Throws this in your inbox and flees

five times I wanted to stop working on this and finish it the next day. I don't like how the background came out but it's not bad so

welp. pls reblog?

My favorite supernatural au ❤️❤️❤️❤️😍

Do you have a favorite pony to draw in your supernatural mlp series? personally I think every single one of them is so adorable I want to squish their cheeks so bad haha

out of curiosity i timed how long it takes for me to draw each of them—is it surprising that the one who takes me the longest is my favorite one to draw?

I had very similar thoughts. I honestly think by the end of the series, Olympus needs to fall and a new order needs to replace it. I personally would love if Apollo had a big roll in that and I think he will but it needs to happen, I think

I was rereading some of my posts from 2021 and was reminded of how much meta I used to write so imma share my crazy headcanon/ theory which i thought up as plot for a revolution fic:

RR verse is on the "Olympus will fall" timeline and Zeus' actions are speeding it up.

In the recent decade there has been several great prophecies back to back. And people have remarked how weird it is that there have been so many. What if the reason is because of Zeus?

Remember, in greek mythology there is a major theme of how Your Fate Cannot Be Defied. And Zeus, king of Olympus, has a major Fate: being overthrown. However he managed to "defy" it by eating Metis.

My idea is that he has been forcefully clawing out a future where he is still king of Olympus. By doing this, he is literally changing the flow of fate. And obviously fate wants to correct itself, so the harder he fights it, the more counterforce he triggers. All prophecies meant to lead to his overthrowing are suddenly sped up. Olympus begins to lose power. Zeus is aware of this. He is also aware how people are becoming suspicious. And he needs a scapegoat. And who better than the god of prophecy who is also a threat to the throne?

Apollo mentions that Zeus blamed him for his oracle revealing a prophecy "too early" and therefore causing it to happen early. However, everyone knows it's not possible to actually cause a prophecy to happen early...so why would Zeus even have this weird line of thought? everyone probably dismissed it as Zeus being irrational, but there a juicier theory this ties into:

Apollo being the one to overthrow Zeus.

The idea of "fall of the sun, the final verse". What if this is the final prophecy that is meant to happen before Zeus is overthrown? And what if the fall this speaks of is actually when Apollo fell close to chaos? When he pulled himself together there?

What if he reformed different from his original godly form. He was literally almost gone, his body was disintegrating. Maybe he pulled himself together using the energies of chaos. Apollo himself isn't aware of this, due to a suspicious memory gap between him clawing up from the cliff and him waking up next to Artemis.

And this adds to another headcanon of mine, the fates choose Apollo to be the god of prophecy on purpose. At first glance, this is a horrible match. If they wanted a good servant, why would they choose someone so closely tied to his heart and so likely to fight fate? Someone who dares get them drunk just to extend a human's lifespan? UNLESS... they WANT him to eventually try and defy fate??

Imagine if fate was a compass and Zeus had forcefully wrenched the needle point at a bleak dark future where Olympus falls with him. And this river direction has been set so deeply in stone and run on for so long, it has worn a grove and become the mostly likely future.

you need someone willing to fight, someone to wrench the needle out. SOMEONE FAMILAR WITH FATE AND Prophecy. Someone who has the power to fight it and win. Someone who has the will. Perhaps a baby god who was willing to fight Python, and who would have likely died there. But if he successfully did take on the powers of prophecy, one day that same godling would fight Python again, would absorb the powers of chaos to recreate himself.

Perhaps not today and maybe not even for the next four thousand years

but one day that godling would stare down at that wretched compass hand and decide to yank the flow out of its place. And maybe, that godling means a chance for Olympus to have a different future.

Anyways that's my crazy theory i hope it wasn't too confusing. It also links up with my other story theme idea about fate, hope and apollo blah blah blah, which i rambled about in a different post.

Edit: just remembered my other crazy thought, what if ZEUS PURPOSEFULLY TRIED TO GET RID OF APOLLO NOT ONLY CAUSE HE IS A THREAT TO THE THRONE BUT ALSO BECAUSE AS THE GOD OF PROPHECY HE IS MOST LIKELY TO REALIZE SOMETHING IS WRONG AND THAT ZEUS IS MESSING WITH FATE?!???? Basically pulling a imma say you're the murderer before u realise im the murderer. (i cant remember the actual saying Lmaoo)

The best thing about being a stan of both Gi-hun and Jun-ho and constantly defending them as the perfect angels they are is knowing that the fucking main villain of the show agrees with me lmao

It's the first time in a long time that I do this, it's like learning to draw again.

Im giving it my all and thank you very much for your nice comments and love! You guys are very good to me 🌷

can you imagine the complete WHIPLASH the gods of olympus would have with post-toa apollo? apollo who's deconstructed the facade and tossed it aside? apollo who they thought they knew but are now faced with someone so strange and unfamiliar they question if they knew him at all? or did they once know him, all those years ago, but willingly forgot that part of him in favor of the front he put up? in favor of the fake because he made himself more palatable? less threatening? because remember, apollo was a beloved god, but also a silently scary god. gods quaked in his presence the first time he stepped onto olympus. why wouldn't they eagerly attach themselves to the seemingly harmless apollo, who surely is not at all dangerous anymore!

but do you see the dichotomy. the confusion. the panic, depending on which god it is?

the guilt, if it's someone close to him?

I would usually consider myself Mat Cauthon’s #1 defender and fan but then I remember Rand exists and I realize I’m a distant second place.

Tuon told him about how Mat literally kidnapped her and he straight up went “oh well, you probably deserved it. I’m sure he had a reason.”

Rand looks at Mat and goes “he’s just a silly little fella :)” and ignores all his crimes. Mat could stab someone out of nowhere and Rand’s first question would be “Mat! Are you hurt?” And the second “what did that guy do to you?”

Your honor, I see no lies here.
