Ok this is something to help everyone with developing characters for stories’ or even if you like comics.
I have decided to do a series so you can create a character of a certain theme. And hopefully adapt that character.

Your task here is to develop a hero Character.

The character could be from present day or the future the past/Fantasy.

You need to describe his name.
appearance
attitude
specialty
age
hair colour if any
male/female
height

Then you need a description about him/her.
Is this character an everyday person o soldier a warrior a Knight or something else.

you will need a biography of your character
and obviously you'll need a time line of character lives in.

what are his/her goals.


what does he/she wear usually and does he use weapons if so why does he use those weapons. Or is he/she from a romantic novel childrens novel you decide

and the character's characteristics.

Her name is Jordan Kastela. She's about 115 pounds, five four, with long blonde hair. She has an optimistic attitude, though she's naive and has a bit of a stuborn sting. Her specialties haven't really developed yet, since she's only 17, though she likes to write a lot. She is the Aurora (Gaia's Warrior), though for the most part, she is just an ordinary girl. She had been living with Steven and Emma for the past twelve years. Before five, her life is a mystery. She has grown up on Fediver the whole time. This is a fantasy, so the itme line is older, but sort of modern. Her goal is to travel, though thruoghout the story, her goal changes to save the world and then save herself. She wears normal clothing, such as jeans and shirts, and throughout story, is trained to use a sword for defense.

The year is 2147 A.D. The character's name is Adrian Cole and he is 32 years old. He is an astronaut. He has a sturdy build, short, black hair, and heterochromia: eyes of two different colors. The right eye is green, while the left eye is dark brown. He is 6'4". He's calm under pressure and usually very level-headed. He tends to be a follower, but he is forced to take over when an unfortunate event befalls the crew of the space station he is working on.

The History
He was born and spent the fist few years of his life in Eola, Texas with his older brother, Tim, and their parents. They later moved to southeastern Arizona where his father joined the Army. Adrian was eight years old at the time. His father's military job took them to bases all over the world, which was quite an adventure for them all. Adrian thought he had seen everything worth seeing on the face of the earth.
But that wasn't enough for him. He wanted more. He knew there was more to explore. As soon as he was old enough, he joined NASA and became an astronaut. He persuaded his older brother to join too, so he did. If he was to be sent to space, he wanted Tim to be there with him.

The Present
He, along with Tim and some fellow astronauts and scientists, were sent aboard the massive (and I mean massive) space station, Laika, named after the first living thing sent to space. It was a sort of laboratory with everything you'd expect a laboratory to have. All kinds of hi-tech machines, experimental chemicals, lab animals, and so much more. The astronauts' goal was rather murky. They were to secretly develop a deadly substance that would turn the enemy soldiers on each other. Every nation knew a war was starting. Every nation knew that it could end the world.
While Adrian doesn't really agree with his goal, it was all unclear at the start and didn't know what he was getting into. With no way to leave the station without authorization, his only choice was to follow the orders coming from base.
