Character Creation 101

Sick of reading Mary Sue about Gary Stu? Make your character well-rounded by delving into what gets them up in the morning, who's in their family tree, and their deepest desires in this workbook for novelists.

Based on RPG character creation, and tweaked with novel writers in mind, use this guide to create backstories and more for up to ten characters. Figure out who is the good, the bad and the morally grey, and use the fleshed out characters in your next story. It has everything from their name, to a family tree, to what magic type, to what social media handles they would use.
