Re: A question about how a character would be perceived

[(Anonymous)]

I don't see anything wrong with him working against his mother, but his bullying of his half brother and father does stop me from feeling completely sorry for him. If you want him to look completely sympathetic, cut the bullying out, or if you're willing to settle for a gray character, keep it in (just don't have the half brother he bullied name a kid after him once he learns about his tragic past).

I do want him to be gray.

I just didn't want the creeperish stalker type vibe that Snape gave off. Or the fact that his romantic obsession was considered his "redeeming quality" . The half brother retains a bit of resentment afterwards but just recognizes that the character is fucked up on a lot of levels.

It was more the half brother than the father. With the father the character doesn't know the extent to which his wife abused him or what it was like for his father at the time. He was like...probably sevenish when the father left and the mother filled his head with stories to manipulate him. As far as the character sees....he was confronting his father about knowingly leaving a child with an abusive mother.

The father is....well very avoidant about the subject and doesn't really actually sit down with his son and talk. Because of ...well the manner in which the son was born the father just isn't fond of him. When he tries to be stern a handful of times he is overly harsh and at aleast one point after heavy drinking brushes off the character in a way that...sorta comes across as "you're a little demon spawn just like your mother".

So with the father it's more poor communication and blame on both sides.
But with the brother he totally took out some of his frustrations by picking on the kid. Yeah..He's totally to blame for that and he knows it and doesn't act otherwise.

Well, I think you're doing fine then. He doesn't come off as a creepy to me, just fucked up.
