Alyssa Vernal and The Lost Treasure: Everything Wrong

Characters

To be honest, I didn't really focus on the characters that much. I mainly focused on the plot of the story. 

Anyway, here are the supposed personalities of the characters: 

Alyssa Vernal 

-intelligent 

-brave 

Enna Skye 

-cold 

-serious 

Zalina Copper

-funny

-cheerful 

Queen Angelica 

-wise

Queen Melinda  

-evil

..See? My characters are really bland, especially QUEEN ANGELICA and QUEEN MELINDA, despite them being the main protagonist and antagonist of the book. 
Queen Angelica is supposed to be wise, yet all she does in the story is smile at the lost princesses and send them out on quests. Does she even realize how dangerous that is? She obviously knows about the Ruby Kingdom's vicious plans, yet she COMPLETELY ignores that and sends the girls to get her crown back because she believes "they're special". I COMPLETELY AGREE with Alyssa on this one. Queen Angelica shouldn't have sent them on a quest, ESPECIALLY Alyssa, because she's just new and her powers are still weak (she doesn't even know what her powers are, wtf). It's just stupid, and not "wise".

Zalina is supposed to be funny, telling hilarious jokes and being goofy throughout the quest. But she doesn't tell jokes, and let me tell you why - When I first wrote this, the jokes were really cringy and disgusting.
"I put weird stuff in my room," Zalina grinned. 
Alyssa raised an eyebrow. "Like what?" 

"Like... poop." she replied, still grinning. 

This was supposed to be funny and make the readers laugh, but now that I'm reading it, I'm just saying "Eww! What the heck Zalina?!" in my mind. It may be funny for some people who like that kind of humor, but most people don't. They just find it cringy, so that's another problem with the book. 

Anyway, the kind of Zalina I put in my book DOESN'T joke. She just seems childish, which is actually one of the personality traits I decided for her, but I never really focused on it that much because it wasn't her "main" personality trait. But yes, Zalina does seem childish at times (ex. making her "broken wand" her headband) and doesn't take things seriously. Other than that, her character was pretty bland, and so are other characters in the story.
Well, that's it for this chapter. I'll be making chapters for each character (next: Alyssa Vernal) and I'll be discussing how I wrote them, and I could've just written them.
Hope you all will look forward to that. Once again, see you soon!
