GUEST,The Celtic Bard BS: Fiction Casting Call (106* d) RE: BS: Fiction Casting Call 23 Jan 01


Here's one. It doesn't totally describe me but oh well!

Name: Azyah Gender: female Preferred Race: elf Preferred Role: woman warrior Alignment: Invaders Description: She's tall and thin. However she is more on the quick side than on the strong side. She has blood-red hair and steel-gray eyes. She might have possible bezerker or bloodlust leanings (not that I'm that way in real life but I thought I would include some characteristics from my current GURPS character). She has a large magic broadsword with a secret name. If anyone else learns the name besides her, she has to kill them because then they could command the sword. The sword also has quick draw which means that all she has to do is hold out her hand and it's there (within reason of course). Plus it has a bunch of spells on it, such as dragonkiller, frost blade, etc. (add whatever you want). She also has a past which makes her do some stuff that normally wouldn't make sense (I'll leave that up to you).

By the way, I write short stories too and developing characters is one of my favorite parts. Normally what I do is focus on one character and just rip them apart; tear into their past, their personality, their motives, etc. Usually at this point, I like to tape myself doing this so that I can remind and listen to it again. Usually that will stimulate my imagination and get me thinking more about my character. I do the same with the plot. Just keep on writing and you'll get better.

Good luck.
