Flesh Out Your Characters

                               Alexa Bowman

Well…for Alexa, she is usually confident when there is a fight or an argument. She does not like compromising because she feels she is either wrong or right and normally accepts if she is wrong. She usually tries to avoid being in arguments in the first place because they are just a waste of time if you are arguing about something unimportant. If the fight escalates, then she can get a little braggadocious and slams the door or wants to start a fight but she has self-control and calms herself down and just walks away and listens to music. Music helps her go through problems.

Question Nine:

List several phrases your character is fond of uttering. Where did they pick them up?


Please make sure you remember to post a hidden image of your character with every question answered, just so I can easily be reminded of the character each time. (wink)

For the following questions, I will be focusing on some of the characters from my new story, since I need to flesh them out a little more. :yellow_heart: :sunflower: :coffee: :sparkles:

Ellie Campos-Assaf

Modern

Ellie hates conflict. She gets very emotional when her values, intentions, or opinions are being shot down or dismissed. She may even cry or raise her voice if the person challenging her starts getting aggressive or apprehensive. That’s why, most of the time, she prefers to avoid disagreements with people who she knows it’s best not to argue with.

Vanessa Malone

Modern

Vanessa, on the other hand, is good at defending herself in a fight or argument. Since she basically raised her younger sister on her own, she has developed a thick skin. Since she does a lot of exercise, she is physically fit so she would be able to defend herself very well in a physical fight. Vanessa doesn’t care what others think, and will express her opinion when she feels the need to, without caring whether or not it may be an unpopular one.

My story has five main characters, but for each question I will be focusing on two of them only.

I can’t really say exact things she is fond of uttering but she has coprolalia so she swears unconsciously sometimes but it doesn’t happen frequently but when it happens, she has no control over it so you find just find her swearing where she is not supposed to. She got it from her mom, who has it too but her mom knows how to control it wherever she goes. Alexa’s mom is trying to teach her how to control it in front of people and when to let them out.

Lip gloss, allergy medicine, keys, a Post-It note with reminders… however, she’s pretty organized so she keeps most things in her purse.

Ellie Campos-Assaf

Modern

Headache medicine, keys, a hair tie, a broken acrylic nail that she might want to temporarily fix with nail glue until she goes to the salon…

Andrea Abelle

Question 8:

Andrea tries to avoid arguments and fights when possible. She uses logic and reason with her words, staying calm to try and keep the situation from escalating in the first place. If a situation escalates into a physical fight, she specifically looks for any weaknesses that she can take advantage of.


Ajax Taylor

World: Modern Fantasy?

Question 2:

Ajax would go back home to where he grew up, that way he could visit his mom. He has only seen her a handful of times in seven years to keep from putting her in danger. There isn’t really anywhere else he would want to go specifically, but maybe Olympus if he had the ability to.

Question 6:

Other than any various little nicknames his mother would call him occasionally, Ajax doesn’t really have any specific ones. He has been called Jax before, and there was one person who referred to Ajax as “soap”

Question 7:

Technically, he has never had an actual job. However he practically runs the camp. As the Zeus cabin leader, and camp leader, he has a lot of responsibilities.

Question 8:

Ajax is hot headed to say the least. Arguments are common, and despite Ajax constantly struggling to keep his cool, he can’t always hold himself back. He will yell and take extreme measures when he gets really heated. A full fight he tries to avoid, but he will refuse to step back.

World: Modern Fantasy?

Question 2:

Jake wouldn’t go anywhere, even if he could. Hypothetically he would want to visit Paris, but even if given the opportunity he would beg to stay in camp.

                              ALEXA BOWMAN

Normally, Alexa never leaves her “Aquaphor” behind. She likes keeping her lips glossy because if not, her lips start to break and get dry. She will also always have her phone, of course, to communicate with other people. Another item in Alexa’s pockets is her wallet just in case something pops up and she needs to use it.

Alexa is usually somebody that tries to not let words get to her. If she overhears someone gossip about her, or tell lies about her, she usually tries to ignore them. She has always been a sensitive person but she tries to hide that side of vulnerability from others but, there was one day that she couldn’t hold it back. She posted a picture on social media and people were insulting her, saying things like, “If I looked like you, I would have killed myself by now”, she broke down immediately in the middle of the hallway in school and didn’t care if people saw her crying. Her best friend was beside her trying to comfort her but it just couldn’t help. The type of phrases and words people said just broke her and made her think about people differently. Now, she always saw the bad side of people first even without knowing them because she believes that there is always a bad side of people. That incident has changed Alexa’s behaviour and perceptions towards things and events.

World: Modern fantasy kind of

Her sister, Anastasia, but the world ‘close’ is relative. Elise tends to hold everyone at a distance, and while this also applies to Anastasia, she is the one who comes closest to understanding how Elise works, since they grew up together. Their home environment was… unique… and only Anastasia can relate to Elise about it. Anastasia has been with Elise for pretty much all her life, and although sometimes she’s similar to a leech, sucking all of the energy out of her, she’s still the one constant person in Elise’s life.

Elise would probably travel far away from the city of Las Levendas, where she lives. If she could, she’d leave everyone and everything she was familiar with behind, and probably move to a city in France, where her family was originally from decades ago. Living in a city where no one knows her or her family would erase a weight off of her shoulders. A fresh start sounds incredibly relaxing to her.

No allergies.

Best would be when her mother introduced her to a potential noble suitor, Kade Wellingstone, and then she ended up getting acquainted with his sister, Kristine, who turned out to be her first girlfriend.

Worst would be when the noble suitor found out about her relationship with Kristin and told her mother, who instead of hurting Elise like she usually did, hurt Kristin. Elise and Kristine were hanging out by the well one day, playing a game, and then Elise heard her name being called in the woods. She investigated, and when she was distracted, her mother pushed Kristine down the well. Kristine’s screams alerted Elise of the danger and she came running back, seeing her mother watching her with an appraising look. Her mother convinced her that Kristine’s family would accuse her of killing their only daughter, so Elise and her family ran away, leaving the Welingstone’s and their estate behind.

Strongest would be when she came out to her sister, Anastasia, and was greeted with nothing but acceptance. They were a lot closer when they were younger, and having Anastasia’s full support when she came out as gay was inspiring to her. It gave her hope and it also told her that even when no else did, Anastasia had her back.

Her raven black hair would be the most prominent, probably because it looks too black to be natural. However, her black hair is completely natural, much to many’s surprise.

Well, technically, Elise is the nickname since her legal name is Drizella. She absolutely hated the name Drizella, so she adopted the name Elise when she was very young. She took it from the Ella in her name and made it her own. Her sister calls her El, but most everyone else calls her Elise.

She is the owner and head practicioner at Rosemary’s Witchcraft Clinic and Miscellaneous.

Elise is skilled in hand-to-hand combat as well as handling short-range weapons, so she can defend herself pretty well in a fight. She doesn’t look to start fights so she doesn’t often get into fights, and mostly it is the other person who throws the first blow.

Elise likes not speaking a lot more than she likes speaking in most cases, so there isn’t really any one phrase that she likes to say more than others.

Her phone, her keys, and a pocketknife (just in case). She doesn’t keep many things in her pockets unless they have zippers because things can easily fall out. She usually stores stuff in a backpack or purse.

The time she was most vulnerable was with her first girlfriend Kristine, and that vulnerability is what got Kristine killed, so she has taught herself not to show any vulnerabilities anymore. With Kristine, she could tell her almost anything without being judged and they could be together with people and they’ll just dismiss them as friends. When her mother killed Kristine, Elise felt more vulnerable than she ever has.


lolol I’ve been meaning to do this for the longest time so here we are
