Not a bad guide, to be honest, I'll probably use this in my ongoing project. I've got real-world characters as well, so its easier.
Thanks for sharing this with us, Glen, I am sure it will really come in useful for people. Can I ask a question though, do you actually fill in one of these sheets for all of your main charectors and store it somewhere??
This is quite a good guide as a starting point. I'll probably be using something very similar to create my characters!
Reply to Quesetion Yes!! You can take and copy one sheet for each major character. Keep the blank copy as a template. Glen
Thats quite helpful, I'm using it now on some of my characters. Normally I just brainstorm all of what they are and bunch it into one big block of text, or worse, spread it all over my notes section.
I do something similar too, the only difference, I write down each aspect of my character in a story format, it help me relate better when I'm actually introducing the character to the story!
