As the title says, this is a collection of information that you can take into consideration when you are trying to develop an in-depth background for your characters. This help sheet is probably more helpful for contemporary characters, rather than characters with supernatural abilities. But you will still be able to find useful details to take into consideration as you try to create a complete identity for your characters - no matter the genre of your story.

I am currently practicing character descriptions. The descriptions will be random and the characters I describe are not part of a specific story yet. Since english is not my first language and I usually write in German, the language may vary from description to description. This is something I am doing for fun and to learn and get better at describing characters, so I would be very happy about critique and tips. ^^

I've been on Wattpad for years. During that time, I have come across so many cringe-worthy things that somehow are still plaguing this site. I'm just here trying to lend a helping hand, ranting my grievances out into the internet. This is mostly a rant book tbh. * posting memes along side it *
