Okay, this is my first post and I need to clarify ONE THING: Lilly Lollies was a random, Idk why I said that was my name. You can call me Abby.
So, back to RP, a topic which I lurve.
But I still have my peeves about it.
I'll probably try to make this a series, so here's one for now-
Perfect characters who's only flaws are..... Well nothing.
A perfect example:
Her name is Krystal Aster, she has the looks of a model, well she is a supermodel, singer and actress. She is really clever and a member of Mensa, is the queen bee, but she's really nice and sweet and everyone loves her and Krystal is friends with everyone, well not the geeks. Her parents are super rich, and oh yeah, Krystal is sixth in line to the English throne.
No.
Nobody's perfect. A perfect character is boring.
Make her rich and smart, or popular and pretty, or royal and kind, but not all of them. Also, flaws and secrets can make things better.
Here's a better Krystal:
Her name is Krystal Aster, only child of William Aster, the car tycoon, her mother left when she was three. Krystal is wealthy, pretty, but very rude and lonely. Stealing comes as a thrill to her, and her and her popular friends party too much.
See? I hope together we can banish the Mary Sues and make actually interesting characters!
