Daw thanks X3 I put a lot of effort into all of my characters. Maybe that's why? In fact, I think I'll let you in on a little secret~ ;) I develop all of my characters based on one central positive trait, and one central negative trait (after all, everybody's gotta have their flaws, right?). Doing this helps me stabilize their tendencies and personalities. I can put them in any situation and know exactly how they will react. Sometimes I even switch characters in my RPs to see how one would respond differently than the other (none of this gets written down, of course). For example, I might swap Isaac and Serix's personalities and run through events of the RPs in my head (Say, the river scene in GND) and picture how the character would act differently. It's a little exercise I use to prevent my characters' personalities from gelling into almost the same person, which is an issue I've seem among other RPers who engage in multiple stories at once, and even caught myself doing occasionally when I get two characters mixed up in my head. In regards to the dominant traits, I made a little list with the guys in our RPs so you can see what I mean. Just in case you're interested ^w^ **Isaac** positive: love/compassion _(seen in how he still cares for Anna despite all the things she's done to him)_ negative: anxiety _(seen in how he tends to think the worst when things go wrong, like with his mother's depression)_ **Serix** positive: curiosity/thoughtfulness _(seen in his reactions to everything new or interesting that he comes across)_ negative: over-evaluation _(seen in how he tries to plan every step ahead and also in how he is blind to his feelings toward Cassie)_ _[I'm also slowly working another trait into him as the RP progresses ;) see if you can figure it out]_ **Destrian** positive: justice/reason _(no examples yet)_ negative: hesitancy _(no examples yet; might change if I have a better one in mind)_ Sooooo yeah XD my characters can get pretty deep when I build them up from these foundations. It makes it super fun to get into their heads~
