"DO NOT SUE." 

(Guidelines to Imperfection)

db3 by RBSRdesigns

Glass Star Bullet (Grey) by Gasara Try to balance your character’s positive and negative traits. 


Light pink bullet by catluvr2 For example they can have a few activities or things that they’re good at (like crafts or drawing) but they also have some things that they can’t do (like sports or cooking). If not that, then maybe they have a health problem? For example, they don’t have much stamina? 

Light pink bullet by catluvr2 Flaws are classified as negative traits. If your character is “clumsy” but only to be seen as cute, then that is not a flaw. “Clumsy” as a flaw would mean that they may knock people or objects over.

Light pink bullet by catluvr2 If not a balanced ratio -- e.g. 2 good : 2 bad or 5 good, 5 bad, then you can try to have every 2 or 3 good traits, have one major flaw to counter them.

Bullet; Blue Major flaws can be classified as flaws that could get your character in trouble or generally get some kind of negative consequence. 

Light pink bullet by catluvr2 Keep in mind that a positive trait could also be a negative trait.
To put myself on the spot, RiShi is a character that is very determined to reach her goals. While this sounds quite positive, in certain cases, her motivations and goals may get her to butt with the wrong heads. 

Bullet; Blue Also, if your character has flaws that could hinder them from performing or doing some kind of activity, please keep in character and do not have them “magically” just get over it or have contradicting statements.

For example: “They have stagefright, but it suddenly disappears when in a certain situation” or “They are low in stamina, but they are an amazing dancer.”

Glass Star Bullet (Grey) by Gasara In your original character's bio, only include things --memories, events -- that relate to the premise. 


Light pink bullet by catluvr2 Of course, it is your character's story and you can be as detailed as you'd like, but don’t go off topic! 
Your character's bio is the root you plant for character development;
if your root is weak, growth will not happen.
 Things to consider to include in your character's bio are place of origin, family, hobbies and interests, and motivations.

Glass Star Bullet (Grey) by Gasara Do not base your original character off another character from the anime or any other show, series, or franchise.


Light pink bullet by catluvr2 If it’s basically another character from somewhere else, it’s not YOUR original character. 

Light pink bullet by catluvr2 Try not to self-insert also. While it is perfectly fine to base traits of a character off yourself, it is not recommended to fully insert yourself into this world.

Glass Star Bullet (Grey) by Gasara Try not to have your original character related to any in-series characters.


Light pink bullet by catluvr2 Actual romantic relationships with in-series characters are also not recommended.

Glass Star Bullet (Grey) by Gasara If your character is of a different nationality from the setting, explain why they are in this differing setting.
