User blog:DearlySkies/How to Write Your Personality

Personalities are some of the best things about your characters. Personalities round a character and make them who they are and define how they act. Of course, there are cliches and some other things to take in mind but that's not always bad. Here are a few things to get you started:
 * Personality Generator
 * Another One
 * More!
 * AND ANOTHER
 * Read a book!
 * Watch a short movie!
 * People watch

The Basics
What are the kinds of personalities your character can have? Wel, if you think about it, there are already 8 billion people in the world (I think). Each person is unique but a lot of people act similar to each other, right? Back to the first thing I said, each person is unique and so is your character.

They could be a happy character who loves just spending time in Trifecta's gardens. Or they could be some cold hearted theif! There's also the kind hearted thief. Anyway, there are so many ways your character could act and it's influenced by your character's personality.

How should you write your character personality? It's actually really hard for me to explain. I can actually tell you the do's and do not's of this tutorial thing.

Do:

 * Explain them with words that effectively detail the character. "A kind girl with little to fight for" or "A horrible man with a sad past.
 * Use vibrant words as well as common words

Do Not:

 * Use zany words little to none understand.
 * Get off topic
