When creating and writing about a character, imagine them as real and try to get to know them. A way of exploring your characters in as much detail as needed is by creating a table.
Try to structure your table like this:
Character Name | Appearance | Personality | Favourite Saying | Favourite Food |
Sally | Long brown hair, blue eyes, wears pink lipstick and a yellow dress | Loud, likes to tell jokes and doesn’t like people being rude | “That’s absolutely hilarious!” | Ice cream |
Fred the Dog | Brown fur, four legs, and a tail that always wags | Very energetic, likes to jump up on people | “Woof!” | Any dog food |
You can create your own headings, just make sure that any character you decide to talk about a lot is characterised well.
