Eh, the worst I ever do is give underdeveloped characters more personality and quirks than they got in their mother series. I always try to make it make sense, however.

This is something that's pretty easy to do when you write for some video games, tbh. No one could possibly care if you take team mate #3 and make them interesting instead of a bland HOO-AH intercom that goes off every few minutes.

I do this too. I love developing characters more fully.

But I wonder if it's a different conversation? Like, is it really OOC if the character has no characterization? (I assume you stay true to the small bits that are there, or do you mean you ignore that in favor of your own characterization?)

Well, I haven't ever really ignored characterization that's already there. I just expand on it. You could argue that those sorts of interpretations take the character in a different direction than the one that was theoretically intended, though.

I have seen people just straight up replace minor characterization to marvelous effect, though. So maybe that's kind of the same thing?

But yeah, I do a lot of making up of personalities for one-dimensional characters, especially if that character is "the catty one" or "the stoic one".
