v. developing a character {character profile}

Have you ever been writing a story and been like?

shit.

For one simple reason. You didn't figure out all the aspects of your character.

Like maybe where they lived, or their family members. Maybe even the MC favorite color!

So I'm here to help! This is a sheet to help you figure out what your character likes, where they come from, and stuff like that!

I've been using it and it's been so much easier to write!

CHARACTER NAME:

NICKNAME/ALAIS:

DATE OF BIRTH/AGE:

PLACE OF BIRTH:

RESIDENCE:

ROLE IN THE STORY:

KEY RELATIONSHIPS:

SKILLS:

PHOBIAS/FEARS:

QUIRKS:

FAVORITE BOOK:

FAVORITE COLOR:

FAVORITE BAND/ARTIST:

FAVORITE FOOD:

FAVORITE TV SHOW:

SEXUAL ORIENTATION:

FAMILY MEMBERS AND RELATIONSHIPS:

Yes, it's quite long. it helps, though! if you have no ideas for anything, just simply google! Like for quirks, I had no ideas, so I googled some quirks my character could have and soon enough my character wrote fanfiction and vlogged and blogged! So there's that!

Now, this is only what I use. You can, of course, google a "character profile" and make your own!

I hope you found this helpful!
