Inspired by 4

[(Anonymous)]

Character creators, do you feel like you gravitate more towards certain "types"? If so what?

Re: Inspired by 4

[(Anonymous)]

I thought I did, but then I went through a list of characters I've created and no, I don't.

Unless "NOT both stupid and evil at the same time" counts. One or the other is fine.

Definitely. I like the 'lone wolf' type, I like people with a little damage.

I like self-sufficient and competent characters, and characters who a bit outside the box.

On a more shallow note - I love it when guys have long hair, and I love a women who can be femme without being *girly*, if that makes sense.

Blond thieves.

In a word, androgyny. My male characters who are supposed to be “attractive” tend to have girlish features, and my female characters who are supposed to be “attractive” tend to be a bit boyish. Of course, this assumes there are no in-universe factors distorting the concept—I’m willing to work with and comment on patriarchal settings where women try to be “attractive” by being as feminine as possible.

Tragedy survivors of some sort.

I've been outlining two original novels and both sets of characters are almost identical in terms of types, even if they're in different roles and have different relationships.
I got some cynical female protagonists, some optimistic love interests, some grumpy big brother types, old wacky women with too much power, and some complete bastard men.

I need to fix that, or just drop one novel altogether.

I have a terrible fondness for small children with fantasy genius level abilities. I work to deliberately NOT write this all the time, since it's a type that really works better sparingly.

I seem to like attractive boys who are walking disasters but,I also like writing stories that focus on them realizing it and.. getting better I guess? I actually relate with them more often than not.

As for girls... I can go with a lot of types, I like the spoiled sweet, naive girl who becomes less ignorant/naive as time goes on, the "older girl' who's really athletic and curvy and smart and a top in the relationship either with a slightly younger guy or girl *ahem*. I like the mostly androgynous nerd (non gender specific).

For aesthetic , I like steam/gear punk /1880/90s type looks; boho/hippie/mystic looks, sparkles and rainbow Lisa Frank looks (obviously), and cybergoth/punk looks.

I have a Generic Strong Female Character problem. My OCs are always badass, aggressive, dirt-smudged, lone-wolf young women. Took me forever to notice because I only ever have one “active” OC at a time. Whoops.

Re: Inspired by 4

[(Anonymous)]

Snarky bastards with daddy issues. It crops up in other fictional characters I'm drawn to as well.

Re: Inspired by 4

[(Anonymous)]

I seem to like Stepford smilers with dark pasts who seek atonement. I have at least one in every story I've written.

Re: Inspired by 4

[(Anonymous)]

Snarky heroes and/or villains. Geeks of both the male and female persuasion.

Re: Inspired by 4

[dahli]

Apparently I like the snarky confident type as MCs with the love interest being puppy-like lover.
