tips for creating compelling characters
in order to distinguish characters from each other more, make the initial concepts of your characters as far removed from each other as you can. this can be on different axes, e.g. rich and poor, low class and high class, sheltered and world-weary.
make your characters make interesting, non-obvious, unexpected choices. when your character is faced with a dilemma, try making a list of things that could happen but don’t go with the first two or three you can come up with.
if you come across parts of your character that you don’t know much about or that leave you stumped, do research. ask people you know who might have more personal experience.
before thinking about any personal details of your characters, think about their role and purpose in the story, and build their character around that.
in order to keep characters consistent, make a reference sheet for them. include details about their background, motivations, tendencies and verbal habits. even when they don’t come up in the story, it will flesh the character out and make sure they come across as a real individual.
