Oh, pardon my inactivity. ;;..I feel so useless since frosty and all those popular authors (Negrek, Yamato..erm..etc 8D;; ) keep this place alive

Niko+SPPF=loopy us. XD

You're not useless. If I remember the PM, you're going to be the only mod here! 8O Unless Niko decides to stick around. Unlikely, though. 8P

As for Niko joining SPPf... I'm happy. I don't have to go around telling the badfic authors they are awful and get extremely aggrivated alone o.o;;

Hmm, I think Negrek runs around there, too. XD

Hey, you've been sick?! Well, congrats on getting well, and nuts for the previous sickness. XP *gives awesome cookie of wellness*

And there are so MANY, it boggles the mind. XP I've given up reading any thread other than the ones I've had subscribed for forever. XP I pity the mods over there... XD

Anyway, yeah, that's along the line of SPAM. However, since you're young and enthusiastic like us, we'll pass this one time. XD Just one line that does not introduce a new topic and doesn't reply to the current topic/s is SPAM. XD

Question: The development of your characters. When you first think of them. Do you stick them in right away with the hope that they're good enough, or do you spend more time musing upon them?

I kinda do both. Some characters I recognize as awesome right away, while others I stick on the back of my mind to dwell upon later, when I'm thinking about that kind of stuff.

That's a tough one. Usually I just come up with a name, a reason for existence, and let the personalities make themselves. Having OCs that have kids is really difficult. It's so tempting to have them be exact clones of their parents. My characters are pretty real to me, so they all end up different, but my creative process is very, very odd.

If I don't like a character, I tend to forget they exist (not on purpose-- it just sort of happens). On the other hand, some characters who I personally dislike are fun to use. I get aggrivated by my own characters. Is that odd?

Eh? 'Tis my first time posting in this thread, I'm sure. o.o;

To keep this from being a SPAMmy post, I shall reply to the current topic.

Question: The development of your characters. When you first think of them. Do you stick them in right away with the hope that they're good enough, or do you spend more time musing upon them?

I rarely make up my own characters. I just try to develop on those already existing, mainly characters from the Animé. So far I've only made up one character in my One-Shot series(I think), and that would be Amber, who just came to me at an oportune time, so I stuck her in to the story. I also have another character in mind who will appear eventually in a later story, but yeah, I have to spend some more time musing on her before I'm ready.

Yamato-san October 8th, 2005 2:14 PM

well, for the characters my brother originally made, he kinda had their role in the story already planned out for some part, but I have to try working on their characterization as they go on. As I've mentioned a few times before, I'm having quite a bit of trouble with having a set personality for Hiro. Based on my brother's original designs, all I knew about him was that he's related to the Kimono Sisters, he's accustomed to his life at his home, kinda attached to his family due to growing up with 5 elder sisters and no direct parents, and he's not interested in Pokemon journeying if it means leaving that life behind. He's gotta somehow end up loving Pokemon, and I've kinda been botching up on that transitional phase. I think I got a correct method for that planned for a future revision, but for now, I'm gonna try to finish the story with what I have. In the first version, Hiro's sisters were just kinda there, rather 2D characters who contribute nothing. As the first version went on, I tried giving more personality to them (somewhat based off of their Eievui evolution to keep it simple, for instance, Tamao being a conning flirt fits her Blacky, a dark-type), but in this version, I gave them, as well as their Pokemon, personalities off the bat, and as the story progresses, I intend to give them more of a role rather than just being the family that Hiro desperately wants to return to. Hiro's Pokemon, likewise, were a bit 2D, and well, pretty much everybody my brother originally had was 2D, but I worked with them without completely getting rid of them, most of them anyway.

As for my own, original characters, usually I'll think of a character I find to be pretty cool, try to think of what kinda role they could play in the story that's kinda suiting towards them, and only ditch them when I can't think of anything good. Other times, I'll think of interesting side-plots that could connect with the main story in a way, and come up with characters that suit it.

Lily October 8th, 2005 5:32 PM

I really feel horrible now.

But I'm leaving, as you can see from my demodded state. Life's a whole grand turmoil.

Sorry, Niko. Sorry, authors. Sorry, frost. xx

Bye then!

Well, I'm actually working on a fic right now that I'm hoping will pull people in partially because of the characters and not just action. What I did was think about and mull in my mind some character traits that I thought were interesting. If I find that these characters would respond well (responding well meaning make a good story out of) a plot line i have, then I include 'em. If they'd be boring in the world of the plot (which usually comes first and often creates the characters anyway), I either trash 'em or change the plot. I don't know what I'm talking about. But, this'll save me......

*tagline?*

Meh... I've changed my mind about quitting... I look back and I forgot that I've already endured a corrupt admin before.

I was a bit arrogant and aggravated so pardon the PMs I sent to you guys.

And yeah. It's the return of those kinds of sigs. The Feelingshipping ones. Yeah. I thought I should be back to my old self again instead of being cynical and sarcastic.

Dragonfree October 8th, 2005 8:03 PM

Character development... I like to insert pretty much everything I think of, and then later I make it into something really complicated and plotty. Just kind of my style.

I've made slight fun of myself by saying that if I were writing a murder mystery, I'd first put in a bunch of suspicious characters and circumstances, and then when I'm halfway through the story I'd start trying to figure out the mystery myself. x3

Character is probably the most important. If the characters are set out right, then the other 4 elements of the story will make themselves pretty obvious.

Heh, that's been gone for a while now. *does cabbage patch for nothin' to lose*

What do you all prefer in a fic; a character that changes by the end of the story or one that stays the same throughout? Do you find one more fulfilling than the other, or do each have their merits?

Negrek October 8th, 2005 9:03 PM

My characters aren't really pinned down. Like a lot of other things I do, I just sort of bungle my way through by the feel of it. Characters of mine say things and do things and respond in certain ways because I think that they would, not because I have them pinned down as being one way or another when I start.

Truly, I like dynamic characters better than static characters. Which is what makes rewriting The Ninetales' Curse hard; Katherine is intentionally static, but somehow I have to make her interesting and true-to-life, because she is what most people would pick out as the main character.

Frostweaver October 8th, 2005 9:07 PM

Static and dynamic are equally interesting to me. It all depends on how it is done. There are definite situations where a static character is by far a much better choice than a dynamic one. For example, a static character demonstrates the effect of the outer world/outer pressure a lot better than a dynamic character.

Yamato-san October 8th, 2005 9:28 PM

nearly all characters I see manage to change in some way, it's how character development usually works. However, would an example of an unchanging character be.... say.... Alucard from Hellsing? From what I recall, he doesn't actually develop. Instead, he's a powerful, demonic guardian at the beginning of the story, and he's a powerful, demonic guardian at the end of the story. What makes him interesting, though, was that there were so many existing secrets and background behind him, so while his personality pretty much stayed intact the whole way through, the audience is learning what aspects of him are already there as the story progresses. Mind you, I haven't read the manga, which I hear is longer than the anime, so I wouldn't know if Alucard's personality develops in that.

I am the EXACT same way. Seriously. No fic I start has an actual plot. Well, save one... But I don't think I've ever done 'prewriting' in my life.

We talked about that in English last year, static versus dynamic characters. Dynamic are usually better, rounder, more realistic, but a static character can have it's merits if used properly and very sparingly. If all of your characters are static, you have an issue. But in the same way, some people are stoic and really won't be outwardly affected by things.

MasterMan October 9th, 2005 1:53 PM

here is what i ffinished of

The MewTox Project



The Mewtox project starts off Right after Ash finished the Joto leage
(srry for my spelling) and him and misty and brock are just walking in a feild and there dead silent then well the camera is suposed to switch to a laboritory and theres MEWTOX in a fluid chamber (like in DBZ)!!!!!! Then Giovani starts wlking tword the chamber and stares at mewtox.
This is what mewtox likes like in this http://*.com/egnv5i.jpgbut i Have him eddited in a fluid chamber/or/recover chamber. And mewtox wakes up and that scanner thing on his face turns silver. And then this happens
http://*.com/egnyc4.jpg
but the words are better. and mewtox sets off to find Ash.

and then mewtox locates Ash after this jurny throgh Hoen regin and Launches a missle!!!!!!! Ash Sees the missle and jumps away but Misty and brock get killed (dont worry theres no blood at all) and ash turns around and see's there dead and theve been blown up! and then Also See's that Pikachu is missing TO!!!!!!(pikachu's not dead)and then MEWTOX hits those too Metal stuff on his hands together and turns to

PYROTEWhttp://*.com/ego1mr.png
and starts Blowing Fire At ASH!!!!!! but ash stills dodges him and ash starts running them Pyrotew hits his fire hands together and says AQUATEW and turns to this http://*.com/ego26q.pngand Aqua tew Makes a GIGANTIC WAVE of WATER out of ABSOLUTELY NOWERE!!!!!! and ash gets fludded And goes with the water and falls into a River and drifts off Mewtox Transforms Back to normal and out of No Were its Dark and Mewtox looks at the moon http://*.com/ego45k.jpg

MasterMan, you should take that over to the Art section and put it in the Comics area. We only do novel-like stuff here, not Great Illustrated Classics. XD MewTox, any relation to MewPox? Or MewLox? No offence, but I think we should alert the government. In case, y'know, one of their, like, cool projects got away. XD

Yeah, my angle was, what if i write a fic with a character who doesn't change during the timeline of the story, but instead, the story includes an explanation of how they got to the point at which they are. Is that just as interesting?

lilbluecorsola October 10th, 2005 12:48 PM

SilverBlaze09, I just meant that I haven't posted in this Fanfiction Lounge before. ^^;

Lili, you're leaving? ;.; Why? *sniff* I shall miss you... You'll still be on at SPPf?

I do like it when a character changes throughout the story. It makes them seem much more real and human. (Even if they're not exactly human, if you know what I mean.) I find static characters rather dull and uninteresting.

P.S. Could someone pleasepleaseplease reply to my latest One-Shot? T.T I didn't receive a single review on the last one either.

It'll be quite funny to let those who ask to be mod be mods though. Then they can see how it is like to mod and how hard it is to not suck at it, while trying to please the majority, in the process ;p

According to Lily, she is quitting all forums... hopefully she will still get on MSN =(
