My main cast from Knights & Mages Online
Dec '20
Sep '21
I'm a bit confused by the points, plus, certain traits could be considered as positive or negative depending on context too. But I do like the idea of naming out positive and negative characteristics. I remember i did this once a few years ago, but haven't really gone back to write it again, and my old sheet is probably long lost among all my documents... I'm currently writing but if I have the time, I might come back to this again 
For now, I'll just book mark this.
Yikes.
🤨
That's WAY too much info to fill out XD
character creation shouldn't feel like homework. At least in my opinion. All of my characters can be boiled down into one or two descriptive words.
Ohh! I found my old sheet XD I'm basically just gonna paste it here. The whole thing was to write five negative traits and five positive traits of my characters. Though I only did this for 18 of my 20 main characters, I can't be bothered to do the other 2 XD These will have do. It's kind of a long read so click on summary only if you dare lol

Edit: Oh and here's the story lol
To me, it really didn't feel like a homework while I was filling it~
I think I was just too excited to see how balanced my characters are ^^
@Sethstiel hahaha I'm just a very ... non structural creator. Things that categorize make me feel like I'm in school again, I'd much rather spend that effort on making actual comic pages or illustrations lol.
It’s just a few check box lol. If it’s hw it’s kindergarten hw. Plus it’s just a meme I think. People shouldn’t be creating characters with it. Too mechanical.
@Sethstiel
It’s a whacky romcom
