I'm on a roll with my randomness today.
Are there any weird facts you guys have about your characters, or the character making process? Do you come up with totally new characters each time? Are your characters like you at all? Or totally different? Do you base them off real people? What about names - normal names or weird names? Where do you find your names?
001 austin: but you without alex is like... you without air
Any time I have the opportunity, I use Alex Gaskarth. I tend to think other people write a character that doesn't fit him at all, so I usually despise any character with his face that I didn't create. It's lame and elitist but it's how it works. My only exception so far is Austin's creation of Emmett W. (I'm not even gonna try, honey bunches) on another site we're on together.
002 My newest habit is to give my characters the surnames of my friends. All of the characters I have on this site (Ella Hrovat, Rowan Bennett Nash and Maddox Carnahan) have the last names of some of my best friends. It makes me smile and the ones who know tend to find it funny.
003 Maddox's character is actually an older character, named Alanna, who has been twisted to fit each site I drag her to. I won't bring her into a site if Hayley Williams is taken, though, for two reasons: one, she just fits her personality. She's bubbly and hyper and small and just fun to be around. And two, she is actually based loosely on the woman I worked for over a span of three years. And, she and Hayley Williams shared about a million and one qualities, both physically and through their actions.
004 Ella is entirely new and I came up with her in about two hours flat. I get attached to certain characters off the bat and they end up being used other places - she is one of those. She's not gonna die anytime soon. In fact, I'm using her in a real story I'm writing; I let a friend read what I've got so far and she likes Ella a lot.
005 I adore weird names. I have a list. I tend to like the most unique names you don't hear every day... or ever. Ella actually was not on that list, but I love the name anyway and decided to just go with it.
