Character Practice

Take a character, a charter of any kind, and write a story of their lives. It could be only up to the point in that charters life where you plan to write a story, or it could be there full life story including any stories you plan to put that charter in mentioned.
The idea is to flesh out your character to the point they could almost be a real person you are talking about.

Opposite Siblings

create 2 characters that are opposites. then make them siblings, make sure to change their personalities just enough to meld them into the same family and their new circumstances. be sure to add some kind of conflict between the two.
examples:

  • sister that has to raise younger brother.
  • older brother that imposes himself on to younger bother to keep him safe.
  • older sister that runs away to join the circus and leaves younger sister to take care of the family.
  • a heroic strong older brother, sinister weak younger brother.
